Filter by:The degree of TH1-skewing by mycobacteria is controlles by NRAMP1 gene polymorphisms and related to the degree of inhibition of TH2-mediated disease.
The purpose of this study is to gather information on the safety and immunogenicity of an investigational smallpox vaccine in populations with atopic disorders.
Purpose of the study: One bothering feature of atopic dermatitis is its relapsing nature. Hence, it is worthwhile to test modes how to efficiently prevent relapses or at least increase the time until the disease recurs. In order to give recommendations to other patients, this study is to scientifically describe efficacy and safety of a given regimen, namely a maintenance therapy with two days a week Advantan.
Atopic dermatitis is a common disease. Emollients and Elidel have both shown to be effective to treat this disease. The research question is, whether the effective component (Elidel) is better than the emollient to improve the skin function.
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infection is perceived not only as a common secondary complication of atopic dermatitis (AD), but also as a culprit in the worsening of this condition. In addition, the recent development of community acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) has presented a new challenge to our management of AD, both in treatment of acute infections and maintenance therapy. The investigators would like to perform a randomized investigator-blinded placebo-controlled study of children aged 6 months to 17 years with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis with clinical signs of secondary bacterial infection to study: 1) the prevalence of CA-MRSA in our patient population; 2) the relationship of sensitivity of the S. aureus organism cultured from the infected lesion(s) to clinical response to oral cephalexin therapy and severity of the AD; and 3) whether concurrent treatment of S. aureus infection initially with nasal mupirocin ointment and sodium hypochlorite (bleach) baths can result in long-term S. aureus eradication and clinical stability.
This is a tissue, urine, and blood banking protocol for cutaneous t-cell lymphoma (CTCL), eczema, and atopic dermatitis patients for current and future research.
The skin disease found in pediatric heart transplant patients represents an atopic dermatitis-like rash that is refractory to systemic immunomodulation.
To analyze the common allergens revealed by skin tests in adult atopic dermatitis patients.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of depression, anxiety, and sleep problems in patients with chronic skin diseases in dermatology clinics at the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics.
A probiotic (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG) supplement to pregnant women the last four weeks of pregnancy and three months after birth is expected to give a 40% reduction in risk of atopic sensitisation and allergic disease at two years of age, compared to placebo.
