This study tested whether analyzing a patient's DNA and RNA could help doctors pick the right drug for inflammatory diseases that don't fit standard categories. 32 adults with at least two affected organs (including skin) received one of six targeted therapies based on their mole…

This study looked at how well a new, quick finger-prick test (LumiraDx CRP) measures CRP levels compared to a standard lab test. CRP is a marker of infection, inflammation, or tissue injury. 79 adults with symptoms of these conditions took part. The goal was to see if the new tes…

This early study tested a new radioactive tracer called 18F-FDS in 16 people with suspected bacterial or fungal infections. The tracer is designed to light up infection sites on PET/CT scans, helping doctors see exactly where an infection is. The goal was to check how the tracer …

This study tested whether a cosmetic shampoo can reduce dandruff and scalp flaking in adults with mild to moderate seborrheic dermatitis. 90 participants used the test shampoo, a standard medicated shampoo, or a regular cosmetic shampoo for 4 weeks. Researchers measured dandruff …
