Active clinical trials for "Dandruff"

The objective of this study is to evaluate an improvement of scalp health after the use of an investigational off-label WaterPik and brush device aimed to massage and cleanse the scalp.

The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in the scalp lipids and TEWL in dandruff subjects treated by 1% Selenium Disulfide (SeS2)/1% salicylic acid-based shampoo after an antidandruff treatment and after a remanence phase

A shampoo containing SeS2 was evaluated versus placebo on healthy subjects suffering from dandruff in order to assess clinical benefits and its impact on fungal and bacterial scalp microbiota.

Pityriasis alba (PA) is a common, benign skin disorder occurring predominantly in children and adolescents. It is characterized by ill-defined hypopigmented macules and patches, round or oval in shape. They are most commonly located on the face (especially the cheeks), arms, and upper trunk; and they are more noticeable in people with darker skin types. Sun exposure accentuates the lesions. Patients and their parents are often anxious about the cosmetic appearance of the lesions. PA is not seasonal, although peeling may be worse in the winter (as a result of dry air in homes) and lesions may be more obvious in the spring and summer (as a result of sun exposure and darkening of the surrounding skin).No specific cause of PA has been identified. It is not contagious, and no infectious etiology has been reported. It is most common in individuals with a history of atopy, although it may occur in nonatopic individuals. In the present study, we will investigate the role of serum vitamin D levels and serum total IgE levels with development and course of PA. Plasma levels of 25(OH) vitamin D and Total serum immunoglobulin E will be determined by using ELISA technique.

Pityriasis alba (PA) is a frequent cause of consultation in tropical areas due to its chronic course, trend to relapse and aesthetic impact. Currently, no treatment is widely accepted. The objective is to assess the calcitriol and tacrolimus ointment efficacy in the treatment of PA compared with petrolatum. Twenty lesions on the face greater than 3 cm, in individuals of phototype IV-V, aged 3-18 years are going to be randomly assigned to receive petrolatum, calcitriol, and tacrolimus twice daily. No photoprotection is going to be indicated, and hygienic habits will not be modified. Patients will be evaluated at baseline and for 9 weeks, by means of Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL), colorimetry, clinically and by photography control.

Dandruff, also known as Pityriasis capitis, is a common condition which affects the scalp of almost half the post-pubertal population regardless of race and gender. It is said that dandruff affects at least 50% of the world's adult population and about 15 - 20% of the world's total population. Dandruff is usually marked by flaking as well as itching and irritation of the scalp which can also lead to greasiness. Dandruff can lead to physiological and psychological issues and can be very distressing and embarrassing for the sufferer, causing low self esteem and social problems. Current treatment options for dandruff include many over-the-counter preparations, anti-dandruff shampoos and topical steroid applications which are accompanied by numerous adverse effects. According to Lunar Pharmaceuticals Ichthyol® Pale is a sodium salt of pale sulphonated shale oil in aqueous solution with anti-microbial properties which can combat dandruff helping with the causative and symptomatic relief of this condition. The aim of the study is to determine the efficacy of Sodium Shale Oil Sulponate 1% shampoo in the treatment of Pityriasis capitis. This will be evaluated using the Adherent Scalp Flaking Score (ASFS) grading and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).

The investigators aimed to evaluate whether they can be improved by an AI-based personalized prescription of scalp cosmetics.

Pityriasis alba (PA) is a common benign skin disorder, that usually affects children and adolescents of darker phototypes. A history of atopic dermatitis is a well-known risk factor, and PA may be a minor manifestation of atopic dermatitis, although it can occur in nonatopic individuals as well. The objective is to evaluate the effect of topical pimecrolimus in the treatment of treatment of PA

The aim of this study is to evaluate the satisfaction / tolerance / cosmeticity of Dercos DS
