Filter by:Psoriatic arthritis is characterized with pain, swelling and joint stiffness. These are inflammatory reactions against tendons, ligaments and joints associated with fatigue. In France, almost 93.000 people are affected by psoriatic arthritis and the main symptoms appear between 30 and 50 years old. Psoriatic arthritis may be due to a genetic predisposition involving the HLA B27 gene, or to environmental factors such as stress, physical or psychological trauma, or infection. Obesity, type 2 diabetes and hypertension can also be factors associated with the onset of psoriatic arthritis. Cutaneous psoriasis is a non-contagious chronic inflammatory skin disease, where the skin renews itself at an abnormally rapid rate. In France, between 2 and 3 million people are affected by cutaneous psoriasis, approximately 60.000 new cases every year. The disease begin in adolescence or young adulthood. There are multiples forms of cutaneous psoriasis (plaque, guttate, pustular, erythrodermic, inverse, facial, scalp, nail and mucous membranes). The main symptom is the appearance of thick red patches of varying size, covered with white dead skin. These lesions are most often found on the hands, elbows, knees, lower back, face or scalp. There is little to no itching. During periods of remission, lesions can disappear completely or partially, then reappear during a new attack, called a "flare-up". A familial genetic predisposition is present in 1/3 of psoriasis patients. Other immune and environmental factors, such as medication, irritations, sun exposure or psychological state, can influence psoriasis flare-ups. Psoriasis has no serious health consequences, but it can be aesthetically unpleasant, affect relationships and psychological well-being. Fatigue is a common symptom in psoriatic arthritis patients, and can significantly affect quality of life and work capacity. Fatigue, which affects over 50% of psoriatic arthritis patients, is a major component of the disease's impact. Fatigue in psoriatic arthritis is a much-discussed topic in the current scientific literature. Although less well documented, patients with cutaneous psoriasis also experience fatigue. Several clinical trials show that, once the disease has been treated, fatigue tends to diminish, but in some cases, the treatment itself may play a role in the vicious fatigue circle. The risk of suffering other skin manifestations despite being under treatment can often be misunderstood by the patient, leading to increased depression and fatigue. Overall, treatments are more likely to play an important role in the variability of fatigue. Ultimately, fatigue is a multifactorial symptom that can be linked either to the disease itself, or to the therapies used. It therefore appears to be the most difficult symptom to treat with commercially available therapies. As fatigue is a major symptom of psoriatic arthritis and cutaneous psoriasis, it is essential to know how the therapies offered influence this symptom, and to study whether certain therapies are more likely to increase it, despite their efficacy on joint and skin symptoms. It is also relevant to determine whether fatigue is correlated with disease severity, duration and even more so with the therapy used, to better understand the psychological impact of patients with psoriatic arthritis or cutaneous psoriasis.
Prospective, observational registry for subjects with GPP under the care of a dermatology investigator.Approximately 200 subjects and 75 clinical sites in North America will be recruited to participate with no defined upper limit for either target
The purpose of this study is see how effective is JNJ-77242113 in participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
The purpose of the study is to see how effective JNJ-77242113 is in participants with plaque psoriasis affecting special areas (scalp, genital, and/or palms of the hands and the soles of the feet).
The primary objective of this post-marketing study is to assess the safety and tolerability of apremilast in pediatric participants (ages 6 through 17 years) with mild to moderate plaque psoriasis.
The main aim of this study is to show how well TAK-279 reduces the skin plaques compared to placebo, in participants with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. Participants will be assigned to one of the 3 study treatments (TAK-279, apremilast (an approved treatment), or a placebo). Participants will be in the study for up to 56 weeks.
An open label, balanced, randomized, two-sequence, two-treatment, two-period, single oral dose, crossover, bioequivalence study in normal, healthy, adult, human subjects under fasting condition
This study has been designed to explore the clinical efficacy and safety of HS-10374 in the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Additionally, this study is to find the optimal dosing for the future clinical development of HS-10374.
The influences of hypertension and antihypertensive medication on psoriasis have been long discussed. Given the limited and inconsistent evidence available, there is a need to further explore and clarify the relationship between hypertension and psoriasis, as well as to assess the relationship between antihypertensive medication use and the development or worsening of psoriasis symptoms. The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze data from electronic health records in a large population-based cohort, and the investigators aimed to investigate whether there was a significant association between hypertension and the use of related antihypertensive medications, such as ACEis, and psoriasis, and to explore potential confounders that may influence this association. Understanding the potential relationship between antihypertensive medication and psoriasis is critical, as this may have implications for the management of hypertension in patients with psoriasis or those at risk of developing the condition. This study will contribute to the existing body of evidence and provide valuable insights for clinicians to make informed decisions about the use of antihypertensive medication in this patient population, ultimately contributing to more effective prevention and management strategies for individuals affected by these diseases.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the periodontal status of chronic skin disease (CSD) patients with healthy controls. Material and method: 109 patients and 37 healthy subjects were included in this study. Parameters evaluated included bleeding on probing index (BOP), periodontal pocket depths (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), simplified debris index (DI), simplified calculus index (CI), and the presence of oral lesions. Clinical parameters were measured and compared in the two groups. The significant level was set at 0.05.
