Aluminium allergy is predominantly seen in children with small itchy nodules in the skin after vaccinations, so-called granulomas. We want to do an exposure study where aluminium allergic children have to eat aluminium pancakes for a short period of time. The purpose is to investigate whether a worsening of the children's symptoms can be detected, both itching of the granuloma, allergic rash on the skin and also the symptoms that are not measurable, such as headache, stomach ache and general agitation. We also want to examine the concentration of aluminium in the urine, which reflects the absorption of aluminum from the gastrointestinal tract.
Aluminium is used in many different cosmetic products, including make-up, deodorants and sunscreen. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether these everyday skin products with small amounts of aluminium can cause skin reactions in children diagnosed with contact allergy to aluminium. The study is conducted as a Repeated Open Application Test study (ROAT), a method originally developed to clarify the clinical relevance of questionable and positive patch samples, by imitating everyday use of a skin product.
Background. Allergic Contact Dermatitis (ACD) is an inflammatory skin disease mediated by direct contact with allergens as nickel, the most common allergen, that may be related with epigenetic changes. Objective. Evaluate the miR-126 expression and its target VCAM-1, in the skin of patients with ACD to nickel. Methods. Fifteen patients with positive patch test to nickel were included, and the expression of miR-126 and VCAM-1 was evaluated by RT-qPCR.
To find out if the use of an intranasal tear neurostimulator (ITN), may be useful in decreasing the pain symptoms felt by patients who experience contact lens discomfort.
This study will evaluate the incidence of allergic manifestations (the first of which is atopic dermatitis) and infectious diseases in children fed with an infant formula under real conditions of use.
Rationale: Foot ulcers among diabetics are common. The presence of a contact allergy limits the healing process. Contact allergies for wound dressings are common among patients with ulcers caused by venous insufficiency but less is known about contact allergies in diabetic patients with ulcers. Objective: To determine the prevalence of contact allergies for wound dressings in patients with diabetic foot ulcers. Study design: A prospective multicenter study. Study population: Patients (n=139) with diabetic foot ulcers caused by type 1 or 2 diabetes mellitus treated at Rijnstate Hospital Arnhem, the Netherlands. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary study parameter is the presence of contact allergies for wound dressings. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: An allergy test is standard procedure at Rijnstate Hospital, there is no direct technique-related burden or risk for the patient. In addition, wound dressings can be adjusted in patients where a contact allergy is determined which will benefit the prognosis of these patients. The data of this study will give insight in the prevalence of contact allergies for wound dressings in patients with diabetic foot ulcers.
The treatment of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) can be unsatisfactory, and that other skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis have an increased likelihood of ACD, improved systemic treatments are needed. This research study explores the effectiveness of Baricitinib in treating Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity (allergic) versus Irritant Skin reactions. Subjects for this study need to be healthy males between the ages of 18 and 40. This study will evaluate this by injecting antigens as well as applying them on top of the skin to the forearm then measure the effects of Baricitinib by skin and blood testing.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of dupilumab on allergic contact dermatitis.
Nickel (Ni)-mediated allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a very common disease worldwide. Our previous findings demonstrated that in vitro supplementation of polyphenols, extracted from seeds of red grape (Nero di Troia cultivar), to peripheral lymphomonocytes from Ni-mediated ACD patients could reduce release of T helper (h)1 [interferon (IFN)-] and Th2 [interleukin (IL)-4] cytokines, on the one hand. On the other hand, IL-10 (an anti-inflammatory cytokine) levels increased with a reduction of IL-17 (an inflammatory cytokine). Also levels of nitric oxide (NO) decreased in response to polyphenol pretreatment.
