Filter by:This study seeks to research the efficacy of Adapalene 0.1% gel as a cost effective and low risk treatment option for plantar warts of the foot. Patients that present/diagnosed in designated clinics with plantar warts will be offered the option of being treated with regular superficial debridements of the epidermis and twice a day application of adapalene gel 0.1% under occlusion. Patients will be followed until resolution.
Cutaneous viral warts are very common and are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). Most people experience warts in one form or another at some point in their lives. Cutaneous warts are related to different types of HPV. For the palms and soles, HPV 2 has been the most frequently found but HPV 1, 4, 27, and 57 have also been described. Our hypothesis is that vaccination by nonavalent vaccine against HPV could lead to a complete resolution of difficult-to-treat palmo-plantar warts patients of more than 15 years and 3 months of age.
The adolescence is a landmark in perceiving the sexuality and awareness about the sexual experiences. Genitals warts were shown to be a potential risk to impair the sexual functions in women. Adolescence is a vulnerable period in which the individuals may be prone to the negative effects of the disorders affecting sexual functions such as genital warts. The current study aimed to investigate the impact of genital warts on sexual functions in female adolescents.
Vitamin D3 plays important role in keratinocyte differentiation and had been used recently in verruca vulgaris. Aim of the work: To assess the expression of involucrin in verrucae vulgaris before and after injection of vitamin D3. Subjects and Methods: This study included 60 patients with verrucae vulgaris subjected to intralesional injection of vitamin D3 at three weeks interval for a maximum of five sessions. Immunohistochemical assessment of involucrin was done before and after injection and compared to skin biopsies from 30 healthy individuals
This study aimed to study cost-effectiveness of EndWarts® FREEZE for wart treatment, compared to conventional liquid nitrogen cryotherapy
This prospective, multicenter, single-blinded, randomized comparison study is designed to compare the safety and effectiveness of the CellFX System to Cryosurgery for the clearance of cutaneous non-genital common warts on all areas of the body excluding the scalp, nose, within the orbital region of the face, plantar or periungual area in healthy adult subjects.
Plantar warts are benign skin lesions caused by human papillomavirus (HPV).There are several treatment methods for this illness, but none of them can heal all patients. Cryotherapy using liquid nitrogen is one of the most common local treatments. In this study, we will compare the effectiveness of cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen with the association of organic acids and nitric acid (nitric-zinc complex). In addition, as secondary objectives have been defined: 1) know the number of applications necessary for each treatment to achieve the complete resolution of the plantar wart, in order to compare the healing times between each treatment and establish which treatment is faster, 2) analyze the influence of the HPV biotype, the location of the lesion and the time of evolution in the response to the different treatments, and 3) Compare the ultrasound signs of plantar warts with the ultrasound signs of healthy skin after the resolution of the process.
To assess the efficacy (clinically and dermoscopically) and safety of photodynamic therapy using intralesional injection of 4% methylene blue solution as a photosensitizer with IPL versus IPL only in treatment of warts.
This prospective, non-randomized, multicenter pivotal study is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the CellFX System in patients with cutaneous non-genital warts on all areas of the body, excluding the face.
Common warts are papulonodular epidermal lesions caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) usually by the strains 1, 2, 4, 27 or 57. Cutaneous warts occur in 7% to 10% of the general population, with a maximum incidence between 12 and 16 years. There are multiple destructive treatment modalities of wart but they have many adverse effects. Hence immunotherapy is becoming popular in treatment of warts. It is believed that the injection to the HPV-infected tissue induces a strong nonspecific pro-inflammatory signal and attracts the antigen-presenting cells. Which then promotes a Th1 cytokine response and leads to delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction leading to the eradication of the HPV-infected cells. We are undertaking a study to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of 2 such immunotherapeutic agents namely, IL measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine versus IL vitamin D3 for the treatment of warts. RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS Null Hypotheses: IL MMR vaccine is not better than IL Vitamin D in the treatment of wart Alternative hypothesis: IL MMR vaccine is better than IL Vitamin D in the treatment of wart Method: A total of 60 patients will be included in the study, 30 in each group. Group A and Group B patients will be injected with 0.5 ml of IL MMR and 0.5 ml of IL vitamin D3 respectively into a single or a maximum of 5 warts at a time in case of multiple warts. The IL injection will be given every 3 weeks for a maximum of 5 doses. Clinical assessment will be done by taking photographs and measurements at baseline, before each treatment session, and 3 months after the completion of treatment. The response will be evaluated by a decrease in the size and number of the wart(s) and photographic comparison. The response will be considered complete if there is a complete clearance of the wart(s), good if the wart(s) will regress in size by 75-99%, moderate if they regress by 50-74% and no or mild if there will be a 0-49% decrease in wart(s). Immediate and late side effects of MMR and Vitamin D will be evaluated after each session. Follow up will be made monthly for 3 months to detect any recurrence. Quality of life (QoL) will be measured in wart patients, using the Nepali version of the dermatology life quality index (DLQI) questionnaire before initiation of treatment and at the end of follow up. Statistical analysis will be done using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 10.5 version.
