To assess the anti-aging efficacy of Marine Collagen Peptides on skin, hair and finger nails for human
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
Impact evaluation of eSkinHealth in improving case detection of skin NTDs and treatment outcomes in rural and urban settings
The purpose is to investigate the diagnostic value (sensitivity and specificity) of dermal-Optical Coherence Tomography (D-OCT, VivoSight Dx), in patients with clinically suspected BCC lesions inside the periocular region and compare these results to previous reports using D-OCT in diagnosing lesions outside the periocular area. The Hypotheses: - The sensitivity and specificity of D-OCT in diagnosing BCC inside the periocular region is comparable to previous reports on BCC lesions outside the periocular region when the standard D-OCT probe is used. - The sensitivity and specificity of D-OCT in diagnosing BCC inside the periocular region is increased when the customised D-OCT probe is used. - The sensitivity and specificity of D-OCT in diagnosing periocular BCC is comparable to punch biopsy when both standard and the customised D-OCT probes are used. - D-OCT with the 10 and 20-millimeter standoff is capable of subtyping periocular BCC. - The inter-observer variation in diagnosing and sub-typing periocular BCC decreases with increasing experience in the scanning procedure. - The number of scans to correctly interpret D-OCT decreases with increasing experience in the scanning procedure. - Delineation of periocular BCC tumour extension is possible using both D-OCT probes
The goal of this observational prospective and analytical study is to validate that the device is a valid tool for improving the adequacy of referrals to dermatology. As a secondary objectives the investigators set out to validate that the device reduces costs in secondary care; to validate that the device reduces dermatology waiting lists and to validate that the device optimizes clinical flow in Osakidetza. The primary care physician will explain to the patient what his/her participation in the study will consist of by means of the Patient Information Sheet. The patient, in turn, will be able to ask all the questions he/she considers appropriate in order to clarify all his/her doubts regarding the study. If the patient wishes to participate in the study, he/she will sign the Informed Consent Form and will be assigned a study code. After signing the informed consent, the data collection process begins. The Principal Investigator and/or collaborating investigators assigned to this task will collect demographic data (age, sex) and data related to the diagnosis, characteristics and treatment of the pathology. Primary care physicians should take photographs showing the areas affected by the pathology. These photographs will be taken with their own smartphone or using a mobile dermatoscope if the use of a mobile dermatoscope is clinically relevant. The primary care physician, will record the photographs periodically, uploading the images to a Google Drive folder that the study sponsor will enable at the beginning of the study. The photographs are named using a code that includes the patient ID (NNN) and photograph number (nn). Primary care physicians will assess the patient's pathology as they would in a routine consultation and record their diagnosis and referral criteria, and associate them with the patient's photographs and demographic data to be collected by the research team telematically at the end of the study duration. These information transfers and the storage of the photographs will be in line with the European Regulation 2016/679 of 27 April on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and the free movement of such data and the Organic Law 3/2018 of 5 December on the Protection of Personal Data and guarantee of digital rights. The specialist physicians will have a period of one month after the end of the recruitment period to evaluate and label the photographs taken. In this labeling process they will record their diagnosis, and whether they consider that the referral has been appropriate or not. This information will be collected by the research team telematically at the end of the study duration. This transfer of information and storage of the photographs will comply with European Regulation 2016/679, of 27 April, on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and the free movement of such data and with Organic Law 3/2018, of 5 December, on the Protection of Personal Data and guarantee of digital rights.
