Filter by:Polymorphic light eruption (PLE) is the most common form among UV-inducible disorders with a prevalence of approximately 11-21% worldwide and a clear predisposition of women. Usually, within several hours after an intense UV exposure, most likely in spring or early summer, the formation of itchy skin lesions particularly at the upper arms and V-neck and neck is distinctive for PLE. It has been suggested that the development of a potential photo-induced antigen may initiate a delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction in PLE (causing the skin rash) and the microbiota of the skin may be involved. We thus hypothesized that eliminating the microbiota of the skin by disinfection may affect the formation of PLE. The concept of this study covers a combined interindividual and intraindividual half-body comparison of the skin reactions of disinfected and contralateral non-disinfected areas upon UV exposure in PLE patients and healthy subjects.
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.
A feasibility study of treatment with a occlusive medical device or patch in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes suffering from irritative contact dermatitis due to diabetes devices.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose study to assess the safety and tolerability of PDC-APB by intramuscular (IM) injection compared to placebo.
This is an open-label study using a device currently prescribed by doctors. This means everyone involved in the study will know the name of the product, only one product will be used, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the sale of this product. Although this is called a device, the product is an emollient-type lotion. Healthcare workers (HCW) often suffer from signs and symptoms of skin irritation, including pain, redness, roughness, dryness, cracking and itching due to the extensive use of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as masks and gloves. These are thought to be due to changes in the normal skin barrier function induced by repeated minor abrasion in the warm, moist environment induced by extensive use of PPE required at work. EpiCeram Controlled Skin Barrier Emulsion (EpiCeram) is a prescription skin barrier repair product containing ingredients designed to improve skin barrier function. However, EpiCeram has not previously been studied in people with skin irritation due to extensive use of PPE. This study was terminated after 1 (one) subject was enrolled due to the inability to find willing participants.
Randomised controlled trial examining the effect of decreased waiting time for the first doctors' appointment, patient education, glove counselling and counselling at departments of social or occupational medicine on severity of hand eczema, quality of life, use of corticosteroids, and jobsituation 3-12 months after intervention in patients with suspected occupational contact dermatitis of the hands.
Permanent hair dyes are commonly used in over the counter direct to consumer products and within hair salons. Allergy, also known as contact dermatitis, to hair dye is a well known phenomenon. Herein, we seek to decrease the risks of allergy to hair dyes by testing a novel version of p-phenylenediamine (PPD) with less allergy potential.
This study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of afamelanotide in patients suffering from polymorphic light eruption (PLE).
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.
