What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Human 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 (HVD3) ELISA Kit (96 well)Diagnostic test
The serum will be tested by a double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to assay the level of Human 25Dihydroxy vitamin D(25-OH-D).
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Patients | recurrent pityriasis versicolor Receives: Diagnostic Test: Human 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 (HVD3) ELISA Kit (96 well) | |
| Controls | Healthy age and sex matched Receives: Diagnostic Test: Human 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 (HVD3) ELISA Kit (96 well) |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Serum 25(OH) D3 level
The serum of patients and controls will be tested by a double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to assay the level of Human 25Dihydroxy vitamin D(25-OH-D).
Measured: 6months-1 year

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
