A Randomized, Observer-Blinded, Vehicle Controlled, Single Dose, Dose Escalating, Single Application Within-patient Bilateral Comparison. The goal is to determine the safety and tolerability of DBI-001 Gel vs. Placebo in Adults with Atopic Dermatitis and to determine the antibacterial effect of a

Lung cancer is the most common cancer, accounting for 20% of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In 2015, an estimated 610,200 patients (22 per cent of cancer-related deaths) died of lung cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer ((NSCLC)) accounts for 80% to 85% of lung cancer. Most patients are locally

The incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is high in China especially in southern China. Radiotherapy is the mainstay of therapy for NPC and greatly improves patient survival. Along with promising therapeutic effects, complications such as radiation dermatitis, temporal lobe necrosis,

Background and scientific rationale Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory condition of the paranasal sinuses affecting millions of patients, resulting in billions of dollars being spent annually in associated health care costs. Biofilm has been implicated in chronic rhinosinusitis

Periorbital hyperpigmentation (POH) is a common dermatological condition, also known as periorbital melanosis, periocular hyperpigmentation dark circles under the eyes (DC), infraorbital discoloration, infraorbital darkening, or idiopathic cutaneous hyperchromia of the orbital region. It is a common

This study aims to improve cognition and function in patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) by administering the oral antibiotic, rifaximin. Rifaximin is a virtually non-absorbed antibiotic with the unique properties of altering gut microbiota and lowering blood ammonia levels. It is FDA approved

Protocol: The Effect of Intraoperative Sequential Compression Devices on Fibrinolysis in Plastic Surgery Outpatients 1. Study Synopsis Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a serious and potentially life-threatening surgical complication. Sequential compression devices (SCDs), also called intermittent

Pyroptosis is a pro-inflammatory form of regulated cell death and is dependent on networks of extracellular fibers (NET,s), on the enzymatic activity of inflammatory proteases that belong to the family of cysteine-dependent aspartate-specific proteases (caspase), and cytokines. The role of

1.0 Purpose: To perform a randomized controlled trial to determine if topical tacrolimus ointment reduces incidence or severity of post-operative facial edema and malar bags after elective blepharoplasty and/or facelift. 2.0 Hypothesis: Topical tacrolimus will reduce the incidence and severity of

Primary oral infection with the herpes simplex virus (HSV) typically occurs at a young age, is asymptomatic, and is not associated with significant morbidity. After primary oral infection, HSV may persist in a latent state in the trigeminal ganglion and later reactivate as the more common herpes

Despite the application of compression stockings looks simple, it must be remembered that inappropriately worn stockings have the potential to cause certain problems. Unevenly distributed and excess pressure may break the skin, especially in older, malnourished patients and those with thin, brittle

BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is still one of the most frequent malignancies in Europe. In United States the estimated new cases in 2010 were 21000 (12730 male and 8270 female) with 10570 estimated deaths (6350 male and 4220 female)[7,8]. In Italy the estimated new cases in 2013 were 13200 (7900 males

Spinal anesthesia has many advantages such as reducing the metabolic stress response to surgery, reduction in blood loss, decrease in the incidence of venous thromboembolism, reduction in pulmonary compromise (particularly in patients with advanced pulmonary disease),return of bowel function
