Filter by:The present study was conducted for analyzing the efficacy and safety of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in photoaging therapy. Specific arms: 1. The investigators will compare the photoaging improvement of PRF and PRP treated face before and after treatment by two blinded investigators. 2. The investigators will evaluate the improvement of each parameter of photoaging by Visia system, dermoscope, and optical coherence tomography. 3. The investigators will evaluate the safety of the treatment of PRF and PRP. Each case will receive 3 sessions of injection therapies with one month interval (T0, T1, and T2). Each case will receive PRP therapy on one side of the face and PRF on the other side of face. The investigators will determine the treatment method for both sides of each case randomly by coin flapping before the study. The investigators will evaluate each case before each session of therapy (T0, T1, T2) as well as 1 (T3) and 3 months (T4) after final session of treatment.
Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) and erythematous skin disease are often treated with topical treatment containing corticosteroids. However, long term use of topical corticosteroid is well known for its potential side-effects such as skin atrophy, hirsutism, dyspigmentation, telangiectasia, and possible skin infection and iatrogenic adrenal insufficiency. Fear about medication side effects would cause lack of adherence to treatment regiments and thus patients would seek for alternative therapies, and a long term safer and affordable treatment modality is required to fill this therapeutic gap. Enhanced external counter-pulsation (EECP) therapy is a non-invasive method to improve perfusion of vital organs and reduces hypercholesterolemia-induced endothelial damage. It also helped to increase cerebral blood circulation in patients with ischemic stroke and improved neurological recovery. This study aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of patients with atopic dermatitis and erythematous/ inflammatory skin diseases to receive EECP therapy combined treatment compared to wet wrap therapy alone.
This study is to describe the real-world treatment patterns and clinical outcomes in moderate-to-severe AD patients receiving abrocitinib over a 12-month observation period, and to describe patient demographic and baseline characteristics.
The hypothesis is that the current bedpan is not adapted to the diversity of patients encountered. It is necessary to collect the opinions of patients themselves on the current pool in different departments in order to validate our hypothesis. The objective is to evaluate pain in patients with reduced or very reduced mobility caused by the bedpan currently used in current practice through an observational study.
This project aims to develop and evaluate an online intervention to prevent and/or reduce self-stigma in German patients with visible chronic skin diseases. Evaluation of the intervention with regard to effectiveness and feasibility will follow an open-label randomized controlled design with 550 patients in total. The results of the program are expected to provide new insights and markedly extended knowledge on the mechanisms of self-stigma in chronic skin conditions. The new online intervention can be used in routine care, aiming for better patient care in practice and, ultimately decreased extent of self-stigma, increased quality of life of patients, and decreased rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide ideation.
While medical adhesives provide fixation of devices and catheters in neonatal intensive care, they can cause disruption of skin integrity when removed. Therefore, when detecting medical devices, it is important to choose products that will not harm babies' skin and to use different occlusive dressings (polymer foams, hydrogel dressings, hydrocolloid dressings). This study aims to compare the effectiveness of different types of patches (Hydrocolloid dressing and Hypoallergenic Flexible Patch) used in the detection of oragastric catheter (OG) in preterm babies hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit in preventing skin damage.
Occupational dermatitis is the second most common occupational disease in Europe, with a notable prevalence among healthcare workers-approximately 20% of whom are affected. However, these figures may be underestimated due to underreporting. Despite the presumed scale of the problem, there is no recent European data providing real numbers. This study seeks to address the knowledge gap regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on occupational dermatitis within the healthcare workers population. EPIDERMAPS is a retrospective cohort study that analyzes data from two specialized centers in the Paris region. The primary goal is to assess changes in the proportion of dermatology-allergology consultations among healthcare workers before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Secondary objectives include evaluating the pandemic's effect on occupational dermatoses incidences, attributed to increased PPE and hygiene products usage. The major focus will be on work-related allergic contact dermatitis, irritant contact dermatitis, contact urticaria, acne, and rosacea. The latter objective is to identify new allergens or contributing factors. Participants include active healthcare workers aged 18 or older who sought consultations for dermatological or dermatology-allergology related motifs between March 15, 2017, and March 15, 2023. Exclusions apply for patients who have consulted for other than dermatology-allergology related motif and those opposing to participate. Data will be stored, anonymized, and analyzed using EasyMedStat. Data collection is scheduled between March and December 2024. This research aims to offer insights into COVID-19's dermatologic and allergic effects on healthcare professionals, informing future preventive measures and enhanced care strategies.
Hematologic malignancies are a diverse group of neoplasms that can have a wide range of clinical and behavioral characteristics. Infections are also a common complication of hematologic malignancies, and can manifest as cutaneous eruptions. Hair loss is a common symptom of hematological malignancies. Changes in the nails can also occur in patients with hematological malignancies. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are two common treatments for hematological malignancies. patients may experience a wide range of side effects, including hair loss, changes in the nails, and mucositis (
This is a phase 4 trial evaluating the clinical effect of combining a placebo moisturizer and non-ablative laser to improve procedural outcomes in patients with facial dyschromia. This study's objective is to evaluate both the tolerability and improvement in signs of photoaging for a placebo moisturizer used in combination with a non-ablative laser. Physician assessments, patient reported outcomes, and digital photos will be captured.
It's a study on Syndromic or Isolated Cutis Tricolor and had as main goal to identify the associated gene to the disease thanks to genetic analysis on minors patients and their parents reach by cutis Tricolor or not.
