Conditions

Conditions

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Contacts and Locations

This section provides the contact details for those conducting the study, and information on where this study is being conducted.

Study Contact

Study Contact

The name and contact information for the person who can answer enrollment questions for a clinical study. Each location where the study is being conducted may also have a specific contact, who may be better able to answer those questions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Dermatology Quality of Life Index (DLQI)
Time Frame: 1 day
The Dermatology Life Quality Index or DLQI, developed in 1994, was the first dermatology-specific Quality of Life instrument. It is a simple 10-question validated questionnaire that has been used in over 40 different skin conditions in over 80 countries and is available in over 90 languages. Its use has been described in over 1000 publications including many multinational studies. The DLQI is the most frequently used instrument in studies of randomised controlled trials in dermatology.
1 day
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)
Time Frame: 1 day
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was originally developed by Zigmond and Snaith (1983) and is commonly used by doctors to determine the levels of anxiety and depression that a patient is experiencing. The HADS is a fourteen item scale that generates ordinal data. Seven of the items relate to anxiety and seven relate to depression.
1 day
Perceived Stress Scale (PSS)
Time Frame: 1 day
Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) was originally developed by Cohen (1983) and this scale is a self-report instrument that evaluates the level of stress perceived during the last month. The scale consists of 14 items with a response format of a five-point scale (0 = never, 1 = almost never, 2 = Every now and then, 3 = often, 4 = very often). The score obtained indicates that a higher score corresponds to a higher level of perceived stress.
1 day
The Holmes and Rahe stress scale
Time Frame: 1 day
The Holmes and Rahe stress scale is a list of 43 stressful life events that can contribute to illness.
1 day

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI)
Time Frame: 1 day
The Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) is an index used to express the severity of psoriasis. It combines the severity (erythema, induration and desquamation) and percentage of affected area.
1 day
Static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA)
Time Frame: 1 day
The PGA is a 5 point ordinal rating ranging from "clear" to "very severe psoriasis".
1 day
Hurley's staging system
Time Frame: 1 day
Hurley separated patients into three groups based largely on the presence and extent of cicatrization and sinuses. It has been used as a basis for clinical trials in the past and is a useful basis to approach therapy for patients. These three stages are based on Hurley's staging system, which is simple and relies on the subjective extent of the diseased tissue the patient has. Hurley's three stages of hidradenitis suppurativa.
1 day
Hidradenitis Suppurativa - Physician Global Assessment (HS-PGA)
Time Frame: 1 day
The six-point Physician Global Assessment (PGA) ranges from clear to very severe. It is used in clinical trials to measure clinical improvement in inflammatory nodules, abscesses and draining fistulae
