Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate how supplementation will alter the skin and the gut barrier and inflammation in those with rosacea.
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central facial region, which can also occur in the neck and chest regions. Microbes that play a role in rosacea are Demodex folliculorum and Helicobactor pylori. On the skin with rosacea have decreased skin barrier function. This clinical study will compare the effectiveness and safety of metronidazole 1% cream as the main therapy in rosacea patients. Participants who will become research subjects are women and men aged 18-60 years who meet the inclusion criteria. Research subjects were divided into 2 groups. The control group will use placebo cream (without the drug substance) and the comparison group will use metronidazole 1% cream.
Taking part in medical trials usually favors a particular demographic group. But there is limited research available to explain what trial attributes affect the completion of these specific demographic groups. This study will admit a wide range of data on the clinical trial experience of Rosacea patients to determine which factors prevail in limiting a patient's ability to join or finish a trial. It will also try to analyze data from the perspective of different demographic groups to check for recurring trends which might yield insights for the sake of future Rosacea patients.
Rosacea is a chronic and relapsing inflammatory cutaneous disorder with highly variable prevalence worldwide.
In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) has been used in clinical settings for more than 25 years, and is noninvasive, rapid and easily repeatable technique to investigate ocular surface disorders. It enables morphological and quantitative analysis of ocular surface microstructure. [1-3] As the technology advances, new IVCM machine, Heidelberg Retinal Tomograph with Rostock Corneal Module (HRT-RCM), was developed. Hardware and software modifications and acquisition techniques continue to expand the applications of the HRT-RCM for quantitative in vivo corneal imaging at the cellular level. The new software can access the corneal nerve more accurate. Here the investigators proposed this Institutional Review Board (IRB) to collect healthy persons and cases of different systematic diseases as well as etiologies of ocular surface diseases.
Questionnaires will be completed by each member of the twin set. A board-certified dermatologist will examine each member to categorize the type and severity of their rosacea. The facial and gut microbiome will be sampled and sent for microbial analysis.
