Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are commonly used in the therapeutic arsenal of metastatic melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, thanks to their inhibiting effects on cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (anti-CTLA4) and anti-programmed death-1 (anti-PD1) respectively. These treatments can induce numerous cutaneous and non-cutaneous adverse effects that are mainly due to their immunological action. Their most frequent adverse effects are dysthyroidism, autoimmune hepatitis, colitis and skin disorders. Among those, pruritus is frequently reported as a side effect of these treatments. Its incidence has been estimated between 11% and 47%. Pruritus can deeply affect the patient's quality of life and may lead to treatment discontinuation. Until now, ICI-related pruritus has been poorly studied and it is not understood. In the literature, data on the presence and characteristics of pruritus in patients treated by ICIs were provided, without analyzing the causes of this pruritus. Indeed, it is not known if the occurrence of pruritus is related to direct or indirect effects of ICIs. Some authors reported a correlation between the occurrence of cutaneous adverse events under ICIs and the survival. The principal aim of our study was to analyze the putative causes of pruritus occurring in patients treated with ICIs for melanomas and cutaneous carcinomas. The other objectives were to assess the association between the occurrence of pruritus and survival, and between the other adverse events and pruritus.
patients may appear serious perineal itching, after injection of dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection its incidence is about 25% ~ 100%, and the incidence of the discomfort in females was much higher than that of the maleTo investigate the effect of propofol pretreatment on perineal pruritus induced by dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection and explore the possible machanisms.
Dexamethasone is commonly used in clinical practice.However, intravenous dexamethasone sodium phosphate may cause perineal discomfort.With the popularization of comfortable medical technology, patients have higher and higher requirements for comfortable medical treatment.Perineal pruritus caused by intravenous dexamethasone sodium phosphate may cause adverse physiological and psychological effects on patients and increase the incidence of unpleasant experiences during anesthesia.Therefore, it is very important to find a practical and effective method of inhibition.Midazolam is a water-soluble benzodiazepine commonly used in clinical practice, which has been proved to effectively inhibit the itching caused , while its effect on the itching caused by dexamethasone has not been reported.By observing the effect of pre-injection midazolam on the perineal itching caused by dexamethasone sodium phosphate, this experiment intends to preliminarily explore its possible mechanism .
Purpose: To study the etiology and the epigenetic pathways leading to and regulating chronic itch. Similarly, to examine the mechanisms underlying skin changes, including epigenetic alterations while also testing the efficacy of opioid antagonists in atopic dermatitis. In this study, the investigators aim to examine chronic sensory disorder mechanisms related to chronic itch.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of SHR0410 in hemodialysis patients with moderate to severe pruritus
Work stress and pruritus: imbalance of effort balance reward in patients with psoriasis.
The research will be conducted randomly in order to determine the effect of VR and AR on pruritus symptom.
To investigate the potential efficacy of dupilumab in the treatment of moderate to severe chronic hepatic pruritus.
Introduction: Adding opioids to local anesthetic solutions leads to enhanced anesthesia and provide postoperative analgesia. Intrathecaly injected opioids have some side effects, though. One of them is pruritus. Objective: We designed a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study to evaluate prophylactic impact of continuous IV Magnesium 10mg/kg over 30 minutes on intrathecal fentanyl-induced pruritus start at the end of the operation. Methods: ASA I-II Patient's candidate for orthopedic operations under spinal anesthesia (10-15mg hyperbaric bupivacaine and 25 µg fentanyl intrathecal) and will be divided randomly into two groups: Control group (Placebo group): bolus 100 ml nacl 0.9% at end of surgery Study group (Mg ++ group): (continuous IV Magnesium 10mg/kg in 100 ml Nacl0.9% over 30 minutes at end of surgery). Study outcome: 1. Hemodynamics: Systolic blood pressure, Mean arterial blood pressure, pulse rate, O2 saturation will be recorded in 5 min,10 min,30 min,60 min and every one hour till 6 hours after the operation. 2. Pruritus Patients were asked about existence (present=1,no=0), severity (mild=1, modret=2, sever =3) and site of pruritus (Face(trigeminal) =1, neuroaxial(dermatome)=2), 1,2,4, and 6 hours after operation. Incidence of pruritus total group incidence %. 3. The incidence of PONV.
