- 2015-04-23 16:12:19 PUVA-induced phototoxicity and melanogenesis are not O2-dependent.
The effect of oxygen deprivation upon UVA-, UVB-, and PUVA-induced pigment and erythema responses in normal human skin was examined. Before exposure, varying degrees of hypoxia in the skin of the fore...
VIEW - 2015-04-23 16:11:56 Combination treatment with both SOD and IL-2 to UVB/PUVA-irradiated PBMC resulted in a more remarkable improvement of NK suppression than with either SOD or IL-2 treatment alone.
We have evaluated the effects of ultraviolet irradiation or PUVA treatment [8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) plus long-wave ultraviolet (UVA) irradiation] on natural killer (NK) activity of human peripheral ...
VIEW - 2015-04-23 16:11:23 The ability of a unit to be fitted with both UVA and UVB lamps is a factor to be considered by clinical centers offering both PUVA and phototherapy treatment
An appreciation of the salient physical properties of phototherapy and photochemotherapy treatment equipment should benefit any center constructing its own unit, or may influence the choice of a comme...
VIEW - 2015-04-23 16:10:20 UVB component of sunlight is largely responsible for photoageing of the skin.
We have studied the morphological and histological effects of chronic exposure of two strains of haired mice (albino Balb/c and pigmented C3H-) to various types of radiation. UVB (280-320 nm) radiatio...
VIEW - 2015-04-22 16:27:49 Norway where even the summer sunlight is scarce, UVAB and, to some extent UVB light are effective treatments for atopic dermatitis.
106 patients from Northern Norway were given phototherapy for atopic dermatitis with ultraviolet B (UVB) (group B) or in combination with ultraviolet A (UVA), designated UVAB (group AB). Of the 52 pat...
VIEW - 2015-04-22 16:23:47 patch testing should not be performed during UVB and/or overt sun exposure.
In subjects hypersensitive to nickel we have investigated local and systemic effect of whole body exposure of cumulative suberythema UVB doses as well as solarium-UVA exposure. UVB possesses both...
VIEW- 2015-04-22 16:23:20 During maintenance treatments no prolongation in remissions with UVB maintenance could be demonstrated.
Twenty-six patients with generalized stable plaque-type psoriasis were treated three to five times weekly with midwave fluorescent ultraviolet radiation (UVB) combined with either tar or lubrican...
VIEW- 2015-04-22 16:22:55 UVB measurements should be made with solar blind detector types for best all-round results.
UVA and UVB radiation is often measured with simple detectors by non-skilled personnel. In this study spectroradiometric measurements are compared to measurements with simple detectors equipped with v...
VIEW- 2015-04-22 16:20:50 Some possible explanations for the better effect of the combined UVB-UVA treatment are given.
The effect of combined UVB-UVA treatment in a group of 23 patients with severe atopic eczema was compared to UVB therapy alone in 33 patients. Mean age and number of treatments were approximately the ...
VIEW- 2015-04-22 16:20:09 UVA radiations twice a week for 6 to 8 weeks were less effective.
- 2015-04-22 16:23:20 During maintenance treatments no prolongation in remissions with UVB maintenance could be demonstrated.
