Momordica charantia Ameliorates Atopic Dermatitis by Inhibiting the Expression of Inducible Nitric Oxidase Synthase in NC/Nga Mice
Source : https://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=113439
Introduction: Momordica charantia (MC) has been reported to possess various beneficial effects. Improvement in natural aging of the skin has been observed with the use of MC. However, few studies...
Conclusions: These findings indicate that the AD-like skin symptoms were decelerated by MC via the regulation of the LPS/iNOS/PGE2/filaggrin and LPS/iNOS/Arginase 1/L-ornithine/ filaggrin signaling pathways.
The Atopic Dermatitis Control Tool, A High-Performance Tool for Optimal Support - PubMed

The evaluation of global atopic dermatitis control is key to minimizing the disease burden. The Atopic Dermatitis Control Tool (ADCT) has been developed for this purpose. Participants [diagnosed by a...
Patients with uncontrolled disease were at a significantly higher risk of a high stress level and had more opportunities to miss work than patients with controlled disease. In this study, we showed that a key factor for predicting the disease burden is patient self-assessed disease control in terms of multiple dimensions: stress, sleep, quality...

Conclusions: This study identified important patient factors associated with OSDs. Clinicians should be attentive of ocular signs and symptoms in AD patients and ask about these.
Conclusions: Adult AD is associated with various psychiatric and systemic comorbidities, emphasizing the systemic nature of AD and the need for collaborative management of these patients.
A Pilot Study of a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Programme in Patients Suffering from Atopic Dermatitis

Introduction: Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) have several potential stressors including the symptoms of the disease itself, the stigmatization due to their appearance, and emotional and psychological strain. Psychological factors...
Conclusions: The MBSR programme is feasible and acceptable for AD patients. Considering the long disease history and the severity of disease burden, the effects of this intervention seem promising as an adjunct to conventional treatments for patients with AD.
