Filter by:The purpose of this study is to establish a multi-center clinical registration platform, to form the real world evidence of New Blood Syndrome Theory intervention in psoriasis, and to evaluate the therapeutic advantages of New Blood Syndrome Theory therapy in the clinical effective and recurrence rate of psoriasis vulgaris.
The purpose of this study was to explore intervention time of Chinese medicine and specification of a sequential treatment plan for severe psoriasis with Chinese and Western medicine.
The prevalence of cardiovascular risk in psoriasis has been reported in previous studies.Various studies have also shown that systemic treatments for psoriasis, including methotrexate, may significantly decrease this cardiovascular risk. We proposed that the addition of vitamin D may not only improve the therapeutic effect of various treatment modalities but also increase its effect on decreasing the cardiovascular risk in psoriasis. So our aim of work is to assess the Clinical improvement and cardiovascular risks in psoriatic patients after treatment with methotrexate alone with the dose of 0.2-0.5 mg/kg/week for three months in comparison to combined methotrexate with the same dose and vitamin D injection with the dose of 200,000 IU per month for 3 months. Each patient will do the following before starting treatment& after 3 months: 1. Fasting blood sugar, 2 hours postprandial and glycosylated hemoglobin 2. Liver and Kidney function tests. 3. Cardiovascular risk assessment by measuring the intima media thickness of carotid arteries using Carotid duplex and High sensitive C reactive protein measuring by particle-enhanced immunonephelometry on autoanalyzer. 4. Lipid profile (HDL, LDL, cholesterol and triglycerides). 5. Calculate body mass index and measure blood pressure 6. Albumin /creatinine ratio 7. Serum vitamin D level. Clinical response will be evaluated by Psoriasis Area and Severity index (PASI) & Psoriasis Disability Index (PDI) scores before and after 3 months of treatment
1. Assess the level of lipid mediators in patients with psoriasis 2. Assess the urinary level of biopyrins as New marker of oxidative stress in patients with psoriasis 3. Correlate the serum level of bioactive lipid mediators and urinary level of biopyrins with Psoriasis Area and Severity Index
Chronic diseases are currently the most prevalent and most costly health conditions world-wide, and morbidity is expected to increase over coming years. Factors such that increased life-expectancy and certain life style-related factors, such as smoking, high-fat diet and alcohol-consumption, are commonly associated with the increase in most of the common chronic diseases. However, more complex psychosocial factors such as depression, stress, work-related dynamics and thinking patterns are thought be associated with poor health status and impaired health related quality of life among patients with suffering from chronic physical conditions (i.e. a biopsychosocial approach). Therefore, psychosocial intervention has been suggested as a complementary treatment strategy for patients with chronic conditions. The aim of this randomized trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of mind-body multidisciplinary rehabilitation on health-related quality of life, and disease specific endpoints in people with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, or heart failure.
To compare the results of vitamin D plus UVB in treatment of psoriasis vulgaris with the results of UVB alone to study the relation between serum vitamin D and PASI score before and after treatment.
Comparison between sleep disturbance in atopy and psoriasis and control
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Expanded Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells on patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. Any adverse events related to UCMSCs infusion will be monitored.The primary outcome is the improvement rate of PASI(Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) and treatment response will be computed from PASI before and after UCMSCs infusion.
Psoriasis and metabolic disorders are well-known mutual comorbidities. The investigators hypothesized metformin can ameliorate both psoriasis and metabolic disorders mainly via gut microbiota modulation. The investigators design a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment of metformin for psoriasis combined with disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism and to explore the role of gut microbiota during the process.
