Filter by:The purpose of the study is to find out if montelukast can be used to treat the various symptoms of allergic syndrome.
AD is a disease found in children; the focus of the study is the mechanisms associated in children with AD induced by food allergies. This study will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial conducted in participants diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and food allergies. The study duration for participants will be approximately 9 weeks. A total of 20 participants will be recruited for the entire study. Each arm will consist of 10 participants.The study will enroll 20 children, male or female, 1 - 8 years of age with atopic dermatitis (AD) associated with food allergens, previously documented by skin or RAST test, before enrollment. Atopic dermatitis and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms will be scored and followed throughout the study.
Polymorphic light eruption (PLE) is a photodermatosis with an extremely high prevalence, particularly among young women (up to 20%). The disease is characterized through itchy skin lesions on sun-exposed body sites occurring after sun exposure mostly in spring and early summer. Its etiopathogenesis is unknown but resistance to UV-induced immunosuppression with subsequent immune reactions against skin photoneoantigens has been suggested. Regulatory T cells (CD4+CD25+FoxP3+) (Tregs), a subset of T helper cells, are crucial for the induction of immunosuppression. We will test the hypothesis that PLE patients show pathogenic fluctuating Treg levels and function and related parameters over the seasons of the year, possibly being responsible for lack of immune modulation and autoimmunity in PLE. Natural or medical photohardening may normalize Treg deficiency in PLE and lead to clinical adaption in summer. Better insight into the pathogenesis of PLE may give clues to develop new therapeutic strategies.
The study was performed to investigate the effects of a probiotic supplementation containing Lactobacillus paracasei Lpc-37, Lactobacillus acidophilus 74-2 and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis DGCC 420 (B. lactis 420) on clinical, immunological and faecal parameters in healthy volunteers and in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD).
A multi-center, open-label, Phase IV, unblinded study using Cutivate (fluticasone propionate, 0.05%)lotion and it's possible effects on the HPA axis of infants diagnosed with atopic dermatitis.
Asthma is a common disease that is often diagnosed in childhood. In some teenagers, asthma symptoms disappear and treatment can be stopped; however, for some of these people, asthma symptoms return in adulthood. This study will examine data collected over the lifetime of 18-year olds to identify factors that may increase a person's chance of having recurrent asthma as an adult.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the systemic exposure to tacrolimus in infants with atopic dermatitis after repeated application of tacrolimus ointment. Efficacy of tacrolimus ointment, evaluated by examination of treated areas, will also be measured.
This study was designed to further increase the understanding of the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in the affected skin of atopic dermatitis patients following repeated topical application of tacrolimus ointment 0.1%.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy, tolerability and remission duration of UVA 1 therapy versus 5-MOP UVA photochemotherapy for patients with severe generalized atopic dermatitis.
Objective: Assess efficacy and safety of tacrolimus ointment when used in adults with moderate or severe atopic dermatitis. The ointment was applied on the affected skin twice daily for 3 weeks and then once daily until all lesions were cleared
