Filter by:This study is to assess the efficacy and tolerability of an oral supplement in mild to moderate acne in adult females.
The objective is to evaluate the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of DMT310 topical powder mixed with diluent in male and female patients with moderate to severe facial acne vulgaris
To demonstrate therapeutic equivalence and safety of Trifarotene cream 0.005% (Taro Pharmaceuticals U.S.A., Inc.) and AKLIEF® cream in the treatment of acne vulgaris
The goal of this clinical trial is to further substantiate the effectiveness and safety of TheraClearX as a stand-alone treatment of mild to moderate acne in healthy teenagers and adults ages 12-40 over the course of 7 weeks. Participants will be asked to have TheraClearX treatments weekly for 6 sessions, attend a follow up appointment 2 weeks after the 6th session, have photos taken of their face and answer questionnaires related to their acne.
Objective: Acne vulgaris, an inflammatory disease, was investigated in this study with the claim that C-reactive protein (CRP) / albumin ratio and some hematological parameter ratios have the potential to be used as inflammatory markers to monitor disease severity and prognosis. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with two groups of patients aged 18-65 years, 61 patients diagnosed with acne vulgaris and 35 healthy control patients, and routine hemogram and biochemical parameters were compared. The Global Acne Severity Index was used to determine the severity of acne vulgaris.
This study was to evaluate the effectiveness of standard therapy for acne vulgaris (AV) based on the clinical practice guidelines (CPG) in Indonesia. The main questions it aims to answer were: 1. How is the clinical characteristics of patients with AV in dr.Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital? 2. How is the effectiveness of standard therapy for AV based on the CPG in Indonesia in reducing the number of non-inflammatory, inflammatory, and total lesions and degree of acne severity? The clinical pratice guideline (CPG) used for analysis was CPG by dr.Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital 2017 in line with the date of patient visit. Data of 724 patients with AV in dr.Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital as recorded in the medical records were assessed for eligibility. Data of 3-month-follow-up data of included subjects were collected and analyzed.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of the skin balancing gel cream and examine the effects it has on the skin microbiome of individuals with non-cystic acne prone skin.
Acne vulgaris (AV) is a disease of the pilosebaceous unit that causes noninflammatory lesions (open and closed comedones), inflammatory lesions (papules, pustules, and nodules), and varying degrees of scarring. The key pathogenic processes includes alteration of follicular keratinization that leads to comedones; increased and altered sebum production under androgen control; follicular colonization by Propionibacterium acnes; . The role of topical antibiotics in treating acne is well established. Clindamycin is a topical antibiotic which has been widely used in treatment of acne for many decades. The extensive use of antibiotics in acne has lead to the development of resistance to antimicrobial therapy. Dapsone is known to have antibacterial as well as anti-inflammatory action which may help in reduction of acne.
The purpose of this study is to evaluates how probiotics and dietary supplementation with an herbal powder can shift the gut microbiome in those with non-cystic acne vulgaris.
Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory skin disease involving the pilosebaceous unit, affecting approximately 95% of adolescents and young adults. Follicular hyperkeratinization, increased sebum production, androgen hormones and inflammation play a role in the pathogenesis of acne. Androgens (Testosterone, DHEA-S and DHT) play a role in the development of acne, hypertrophy of the sebaceous glands and increased sebum production. Androgen receptors are located in the basal layer of the sebaceous glands keratinocytes and they are located in the outer sheath of the hair follicle. These receptors are responsible for the proliferative action of keratinocytes. The relationship between androgen hormones and acne in women and prepubertal children is well known. Many studies have shown a strong association between acne and hyperandrogenism in women. Systemic isotretinoin therapy can be used in patients with severe acne vulgaris who do not respond to topical and oral antibiotic treatments. In recent studies, it has been shown that systemic isotretinoin used in acne treatment changes many hormones such as GnRH, FSH, LH, Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone, TSH, T4 and Prolactin and causes side effects such as menstrual irregularity and hirsutism. However, data on the effect of oral isotretinoin on adrenal and sex hormones are contradictory. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of oral isotretinoin on adrenal steroid and sex hormone levels and to compare it with a healthy control. Isotretinoin treatment is started in acne vulgaris patients at a dose of 0.5-0.8mg/kg/day. The total cumulative dose is 120 mg/kg. At baseline and at the 3rd month of isotretinoin treatment, 17-OH Progesterone, DHEA, DHEAS, Androstenedione, Aldosterone, Testosterone, Dihydrotestosterone, Estradiol, 17-OH Pregnenolone, Androsterone, Cortisol, Corticosterone, 11-Degesterone, 21, -Deoxycortisol, Pregnenolone, 11-Deoxycorticostreone hormones will be evaluated with LCMS/MS technique. In addition, the FSH, LH, Prolactin, Estrogen, Testosterone, free testosterone, DHEA-s, SHBG, TSH, T4 hormone levels of the patients will be evaluated by ELISA method. In the baseline 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 6th months of the treatment and 3 months after the treatment, the patients' height, weight, body mass index measurements, VAS scoring of patient treatment satisfaction, Global Acne Severity Score, Acne Quality of Life Score, and Modified Ferriman Gallwey Score for hirsutism will be recorded. The side effects of isotretinoin such as menstrual irregularity, increased hair growth, and cheilitis, dryness of the oral mucosa, skin dryness, dermatitis seen in patients during treatment will be recorded. *Hormone tests were performed on 2th and 3rd days of menstruation
