Scars and keloids cause patients severe morbidity and psychological distress. Hypertrophic scars rise above the skin but stay within the scar boundaries, while keloids expand. The development of keloids and hypertrophic scars is a consequence of insufficient wound healing. These lesions are distinguished by excessive ECM deposition. Excessive ECM deposition is caused by increased inflammatory and proliferative processes and decreased remodeling activities. These scarring lesions are also linked to genetic and systemic causes
The objectives of this study are to understand the variation in dermatoses presenting in individuals from different ancestry backgrounds. This will be conducted at multiple NHS hospitals in England. The Investigators specifically aim to 1) assess features of dermatoses in individuals of different ancestry. 2) Understand the language used by patients describing their condition.
The purpose of this study is to understand variation in the symptoms of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis using simple, scalable smartphone-based measurements. This study uses an iPhone app to record these symptoms through questionnaires and sensors.
One of the most frequent skin conditions is atopic dermatitis (AD), characterized by its pruritic inflammation effect. Where the prevalence of AD increased in the last three decades by two or three folds worldwide, especially in developed countries, AD is supposed to affect about 15% to 30% of children, and 2% to 10% of adults. This type of dermatitis is frequently linked to a family history of other atopic illnesses such as allergic rhinitis or asthma.
iSpecimen aims to create a clinical partner network of hospitals, laboratories, academic institutions, and other healthcare organizations ("institutions") capable of providing researchers and educators ("researchers") with annotated biospecimens for use in biomarker discovery and validation; diagnostic test and instrumentation development and validation; therapeutics development; other medical research including the impact that various specimen collection and handling methods and conditions have on research results; and in education such as researcher or physician training (collectively "research").
