Filter by:Patients who had an indication for phototherapy were included in this study. The treatment was used as a monotherapy protocol. The standard protocol for bathing PUVA involved applying 0.01% bath psoralen for 15 minutes, while the tap water group only received a tap water bath for 15 minutes and the salt water group received 3% salted (NaCl) water before UVA treatment.
Pruritis is a common symptom in patients with atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. Patients with atopic dermatitis and psoriasis often report pruritis-associated sleep impairments and scratching behaviors during nighttime and the negative impact on their quality of life. However, nocturnal scratch behavior and sleep impairment are poorly understood due to the difficulties in quantifying these symptoms in patients' daily lives. This study deploys multiple technologies (polysomnography, video capture, wrist sensors, clinician-reported outcomes, and patient-reported outcomes) to develop and validate a wrist-based solution to quantify nocturnal scratch.
The aim of the present cross-sectional study is to assess the presence of AP and caries in psoriasis vulgaris individuals and to examine whether these medications influence these oral conditions. Therefore, 154 patients diagnosed with psoriasis were included in the study and subjected to oral examination to assess for presence of periapical lesions and caries experience.
This study is a multicenter, single-group, open-label study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TQH2929 injection at a dose of 900mg in adult subjects with active Generalized Pustular Psoriasis (GPP), and to preliminarily evaluate the efficacy.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of bimekizumab administered subcutaneously (sc) compared to active control (ustekinumab) in children and adolescents aged 6 to <18 years of age with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (PSO).
Rationale: - Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorder where T cells play a fundamental role in its pathogenesis. - Low molecular weight heparin has been reported to exert immunomodulatory effect at small doses through inhibition of T cells heparinase enzyme. - Low molecular weight heparin may have promising results for treatment of psoriasis. Research question: - Can low molecular weight heparin be used safely for treatment of psoriasis with good outcome? - Is enoxaparin inhibitory effect on T cell heparinase enzyme responsible for its beneficial effect? Hypothesis: - Low molecular weight heparin can achieve good results when used at small doses for treatment of psoriasis. - Heparin can exert immunomodulatory effect in psoriasis through inhibition of T cell heparinase enzyme. AIM OF WORK -The aim of this work is to assess the possible clinical efficacy and safety of low-dose enoxaparin in the treatment of psoriasis and to detect if inhibition of heparinase enzyme might account for its beneficial therapeutic effect. Objectives: - To evaluate safety and efficacy of low molecular weight heparin at small dose for treatment of psoriasis. - Contribute to the ongoing efforts to optimize psoriasis management and improve the lives of individuals affected by this chronic condition.
Patients (n=15) with skin psoriasis, minimum age 18 years, without systemic immunomodulatory treatment will be subject to Koebner induction on arms and legs given that they have given written consent and that they have self-reported Koebner.
This study aimed to compare the levels of IL-17 (interleukin- 17), Bcl-3 (B-cell lymphoma 3-encoded protein), and IκBζ (NF-kappa-B inhibitor zeta) in the gingival crevicular fluid of psoriatic and healthy individuals and the clinical parameters such as periodontal health, gingival index, plaque index and mobility (using periotest device)in the patient and control groups.
We will recruit 300 patients with psoriasis from Yueyang Hospital of Integrative Medicine, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, who will not be currently diagnosed with diabetes but will have been identified as high-risk individuals based on the developed risk assessment model. Based on doctor's treatment opinions and patient preferences, participants will be divided into two groups in a 1:1 ratio: a Western medicine group and a TCM comprehensive treatment group. Patients in the Western medicine group will receive treatment according to guidelines. Patients in the TCM comprehensive treatment group will be treated according to the guidelines and will additionally receive Taodan granules (to be taken daily during the treatment period after brewing the granules with lukewarm water in the morning and evening) and fish oil (1g, taken orally twice daily). Patients in the TCM comprehensive treatment group will be required to complete at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per week under the supervision of a physician. The patients will be treated for 16 weeks and followed up for 24 weeks to see if the treatment prevents the development of diabetes or insulin resistance.
In this study, participants will have 3 or 4 total study visits over approximately 10 total weeks. There is a two week medication washout period in between the 1st and 2nd visits. This washout only applies if participants are using a prohibited psoriasis medication (such as topical steroids or oral psoriasis medications, like methotrexate). During the washout period, participants will have to stop the prohibited medication(s). If participants are not using any prohibited medications, then the 1st and 2nd visits can be combined and participants will only have 3 total in-person visits. Participants will be randomly assigned (by chance; like flipping a coin) to either the Mediterranean Diet or no dietary intervention. After 4 weeks on the diet, participants will start treatment with either Anti-IL-17 or Anti-IL-23 therapy. The biologic treatments will prescribed by the participants regular dermatologist and not as a part of the study.
