What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • measure plasma level of interleukin 38 by ELISA kitDiagnostic test

    draw 5 ml of venous blood into EDTA tubes and centrifuged then plasma is separated for test

Study groups in NCT05076812
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1 (Psoriasis only)contains 24 psoriatic patients, Psoriasis Area Severity Index will be measured, also waist circumference, body mass index, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and fasting lipid profile and finally: plasma level of interleukin 38
Receives: Diagnostic Test: measure plasma level of interleukin 38 by ELISA kit
Group 2 (Psoriasis and metabolic syndrome)contains 24 psoriatic patients with metabolic syndrome. Psoriasis Area Severity Index will be measured metabolic syndrome is diagnosed after measuring waist circumference, body mass index, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and fasting lipid profile finally: plasma level of interleukin 38
Receives: Diagnostic Test: measure plasma level of interleukin 38 by ELISA kit
Group 3 (Metabolic syndrome only)contains 24 patients with metabolic syndrome only. full dermatological examination to exclude psoriasis and other inflammatory skin disorders metabolic syndrome is diagnosed after measuring waist circumference, body mass index, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and fasting lipid profile finally: plasma level of interleukin 38
Receives: Diagnostic Test: measure plasma level of interleukin 38 by ELISA kit
Group 4 (Healthy Controls)contains 24 healthy control subjects full dermatological examination to exclude psoriasis and other inflammatory skin disorders metabolic syndrome is excluded after measuring waist circumference, body mass index, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and fasting lipid profile finally: plasma level of interleukin 38
Receives: Diagnostic Test: measure plasma level of interleukin 38 by ELISA kit

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. measure plasma level of interleukin 38 in all groups

    level of interleukin 38 will be measured and compared in all groups to asses the relationship between this interleukin and metabolic syndrome in psoriatic patients

    Measured: through study completion an average of 18 months
