Active clinical trials for "Dermatitis, Atopic"

To assess prospectively, the response of moderate to severe atopic eczema to a standard course of narrowband ultraviolet B phototherapy by using validated objective and subjective scoring systems.

The investigators will contact 64 patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) who participated in a long-term tacrolimus ointment trial in Helsinki 10 years ago, and ask them to participate in this follow-up study. The investigators will do the same tests as 10 years ago, i.e. bronchial hyperreactivity, skin prick tests, serum-IgE, Mantoux-test (2 TU), and questionnaires about asthma and allergic rhinitis symptoms. The investigators also collect data about their AD medication during the last 10 years. The investigators hypothesis is that when the skin condition improves in patients with AD the brochial hyperreactivity improves. The investigators also want to study whether different treatments play a role in the development or resolution of bronchial hyperreactivity.

The purpose of this research is to study heart rate patterns in people with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis and how itching affects those patterns.

Infants will be enrolled in this study if they have never been diagnosed with asthma or wheezing and have been diagnosed with atopic dermatitis or eczema. Infants with some types of skin rashes are at high risk for developing asthma by 6 years of age. The purpose of this study is to determine whether we can identify infants who will develop asthma.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) causes people to be susceptible to skin infection and inflammations. The purpose of this study is to determine the immune response to chicken pox vaccine in children with or without AD who received the vaccine 2 to 16 weeks prior to the study visit.

Cathelicidins are small proteins in the human body that protect against infection. The purpose of this study is to determine if the amount of cathelicidins and other small proteins found in saliva can predict the amount of these in the skin of people who have acute atopic dermatitis (AD) or psoriasis.

This study aims to investigate the incidence of venous thromboembolism in people who are diagnosed with atopic dermatitis.

Pilot study of a wearable gas and sweat skin sensor

The investigators will evaluate sensitization to animal allergens and allergic symptom during contacting animal allergens in Korean veterinary researchers who attend their annual conference. The investigators will compare sensitization to animal allergen and other clinical and occupational factors between subjects who suffer from allergic symptom during contacting animal and those who do not.

The purpose of this research is to better understand how wrist-worn study devices that measure activity/motion ('accelerometry devices') can be used to assess scratching and sleep in participants aged 12-75 years, with and without Atopic Dermatitis (AD, eczema), in both a sleep laboratory (hotel) setting and in a daily life/home setting. In this study, we will be using three different wrist devices to collect information: an Apple Watch Series 7, an Actigraph CentrePoint Insights Watch (CPIW) and a GENEActiv Original Watch. We will also compare the movement and sleep measurements recorded on the devices to thermal video and sleep assessments done in the sleep laboratory (hotel) as well as compare them to Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) assessments.
