A core feature of EUSTAR was the Minnimal Essential Data Set (MEDS): specific aims were to establish a core data set on as many SSc patients as possible in order to encourage further in-depth multicenter studies.
    As of March 2010, over 8'500 patients are registered in MEDA from 90 centres in 5 continents.
