About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Psoriasis focused on measuring Amniotic membrane, Psoriasis, Treatment

Eligibility Criteria

20 Years - 40 Years (Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • patients have psoriasis lesion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • must stop other line of treatment

Sites / Locations

  • Amniotic tissue lab

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

treated

Arm Description

Patients who received patches of REGE pro on psoriasis lesion weekly for 8 weeks

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Scaling size decrement
REGE pro gel decreased scaling size in patients with sever scales to moderate scale within two weeks, scaling size decrement from moderate to mild within two weeks, and from mild to complete curing within two weeks
Histopathological improvement
Two biopsies were taken from each patient before and at the end of the treatment. It was noted that all histological signs as munro's microabscess and the elongation of rete ridges were absent.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Erythema disappearing
REGE pro gel gradually decreased erythema in patients within 4-6 weeks, these data were collected from applied patients by questionnaire.
