Filter by:Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the periodontal status of chronic skin disease (CSD) patients with healthy controls. Material and method: 109 patients and 37 healthy subjects were included in this study. Parameters evaluated included bleeding on probing index (BOP), periodontal pocket depths (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), simplified debris index (DI), simplified calculus index (CI), and the presence of oral lesions. Clinical parameters were measured and compared in the two groups. The significant level was set at 0.05.
The ERYTHRO study is a retrospective medical chart review study of patients in the AMANA and ATUc Early Access Programs (EAPs) across a number of countries, to assess anifrolumab usage and patient experience in treating SLE in a real-world setting. Since patient safety data are already collected and reported according to regulatory requirements through EAPs, this study will not collect safety data.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease with a relatively high mortality and morbidity rate, especially in developing countries such as Indonesia. In Indonesia, a previous study demonstrated that almost 71% of SLE patients experience hypovitaminosis D, with serum vitamin D 25 levels less than 30 ng/ml. Several factors contribute to the low vitamin D levels among SLE patients. Less exposure to sunlight or insufficient vitamin D intake contributes to SLE patients low vitamin D levels. Some other studies also revealed that vitamin D metabolism gene polymorphisms are also associated with patients with SLE. Vitamin D is essential for bone health and has an essential role in immune system modulation and controlling autoimmune diseases, including SLE. Another study demonstrates that curcumin supplementation in premenopausal women and dysmenorrhea improves vitamin D levels. Despite the promising properties of curcumin in improving vitamin D biological actions, our previous study reveals that the addition of curcumin in vitamin D administration do not significantly improve the disease activity or cytokine imbalance in SLE patients. The synergistic property of curcumin with vitamin D in regulating immune cells is an open opportunity for researchers to increase the response to vitamin D3 therapy. Several studies have reported the efficacy of vitamin D or curcumin for SLE treatment. However, none mentioned the combination of curcumin added with piperine and vitamin D3. We hypothesized that adding curcumin piperine with vitamin D3 as a complementary treatment in SLE patients would improve the clinical symptoms or cytokine balance among SLE patients. Therefore, this study aims to observe the effects of adding curcumin-piperine with vitamin D3 in clinical outcomes and cytokines levels in SLE patients with hypovitaminosis D.
The purpose of this study is to pilot test SLE@Duke, a set of tools to implement the Type 1 & 2 SLE Model in a clinical setting, as well as to gain an in-depth understanding of providers experiences using the intervention during clinic visits with patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. This record represents Aim 3 of this study.
SLE is mostly seen in young women and causes significant deformity in patients. In SLE, disease activity, body damage due to disease or treatment, comorbidities, and drugs affect body image negatively. SLE causes changes in the body such as skin rashes, uneven pigmentation, vitiligo, scars, tooth loss, alopecia, increased facial hair, stretch marks, weight gain, fatigue, pain, depression, the unpredictability of exacerbations or lack of independence, which worsens the subjective well-being of patients. can affect in that direction. Subjective well-being (SBL) is the scientific term for happiness, and SLE is thought to have a significant negative impact on SWB.
Physical activity and exercise are helpful for managing symptoms like fatigue in people living with systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus; SLE). Despite research supporting physical activity participation, people with lupus are often inactive and report being afraid to exercise. To that end, this project is a pilot randomized controlled trial for examining the efficacy of a home-based behavioral intervention based on social cognitive theory and motivational interviewing for increasing physical activity and decreasing fatigue.
This is a multi-center, open-label, phase I study.
This will be the first-in-human study designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single ascending doses of DS-7011a in healthy participants.
Accelerated atherosclerosis in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is not fully explained by Framingham risk factors. The detection in asymptomatic patients of somatic mutations in genes involved in hematopoietic malignancy- defining clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) - predisposes to cardiovascular events (CVE) in general population. We aimed to determine whether CHIP is associated with CVE in SLE.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of LY3361237 in participants with at least moderately active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Study will last up to 34 weeks and may include up to 15 visits.
