Use of Vitamin D as An Adjuvant Treatment in Children With Chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Immune thrombocytopenia is an autoimmune disease in which platelets are targeted by the host immune system. Platelet depletion occurs when autoantibodies targeting glycoproteins (αIIb-β3 and GPIb) found on the surface of platelets opsonize the cells, resulting in destruction by macrophages. These antibodies can also bind to megakaryocytes and prevent complete maturation, which results in lowered levels of platelet production Vitamin D (VD) or 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, may be a potent immunomodulator, and it may have potential therapeutic use in many autoimmune diseases In 1991, researchers found that the production of interleukin...

Virtual Reality for Pain Management During Dupilumab Injection
The aim of this within-subject randomized study is to examine the efficacy of a VR immersive game for pain and anxiety management of children during the subcutaneous injection of dupilumab for moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. We will recruit children from 6 to 17 years. The main research question is: 1. Does VR immersive game will generate less anxiety and pain than standard procedures, for children receiving dupilumab injection for moderate to severe atopic dermatitis? 2. Does the occurence of side effects is similar between both study groups? Participants will be randomized according to either...

Vitamin D Supplementation in Acne
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in acne vulgaris patients. The main question it aims to answer is: • To assess the therapeutic benefit of vitamin D supplement in acne vulgaris treatment, following a 2-month treatment regimen that includes vitamin D supplementation compared to conventional (systemic azithromycin and topical retinoid) treatment alone. Participants will receive vitamin D supplements in addition to capsule Azithromycin and topical retinoid. Researchers will compare groups to determine efficacy of Vitamin D supplements in the treatment of Acne vulgaris.

VO and Nivolumab vs Physician's Choice in Advanced Melanoma That Progressed on Anti-PD-1 & Anti-CTLA-4 Drugs (IGNYTE-3)
This is a randomized, controlled, multicenter, open-label Phase 3 clinical study comparing VO in combination with nivolumab versus Physician's Choice treatment for patients with unresectable Stage IIIb-IV cutaneous melanoma whose disease progressed on an anti PD-1 and an anti-CTLA-4 containing regimen (administered either as a combination regimen or in sequence) or who are not candidates for treatment with an anti-CTLA-4 therapy.

Weekly Isotretinoin vs Tetracycline for Moderate Acne
In the effort to find better treatments for Moderate Acne, which often relies on long-term antibiotic use, researchers are exploring alternative options. While Isotretinoin, a Vitamin A derivative, is highly effective for severe acne, its side effects limit its use for milder cases. A recent study from our institution investigated a new approach: weekly Isotretinoin dosing. The results were promising, with acne improvement and no major side effects. This suggests that weekly Isotretinoin could be a successful alternative for moderate acne in both males and females. To validate these findings, investigators propose a randomized controlled ...

AI Augmented Training for Skin Specialists
Background: The worldwide incidence of skin cancer has been rising for 50 years, in particular the incidence of malignant melanoma has increased approx. 2-7% annually and is the most common cancer amongst Danes aged 15-34. Currently there is a significant amount of misdiagnosis of skin cancer and mole cancer, and most excised skin lesions are benign. Previous studies have shown that there is no significant increase in doctors diagnostic accuracy during the first 6 years of clinical work. The resources spend on healthy people could be put to better use, if the Benign-Malignant Ratio could be lowered. This could...

ALDH1A1 Expression in Invasive Mammary Carcinoma
ALDH1A1 isozyme oxidizes Retinaldehyde to retinoic acid, which regulates the expression of the genes involved in tumor-initiating stem-like cells, thereby initiating tumor growth and resistance to drugs. Much emphasis has been focused on ALDH1A1 as a CSC marker. High expression of ALDH1A1 has been reported as a poor prognostic marker in several tumor types and is associated with poor patient outcomes .
