研究目的
To determine the efficacy, adverse events, and their influencing factors of fractional erbium: yttrium‐aluminum‐garnet (Er:YAG) laser‐assisted topical delivery of corticosteroids in stable vitiligo.
研究成果
Fractional Er:YAG laser‐assisted delivery of topical compound betamethasone is effective for stable vitiligo, especially in younger patients with shorter disease duration and lesions on the face and neck with hair. Hyperpigmentation is a common adverse event associated with higher laser density.
研究不足
The study is retrospective, which may limit the control over variables and the ability to establish causality. Further prospective clinical trials and basic studies are needed for confirmation.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A retrospective study was conducted on 1,026 lesions in 684 patients with stable vitiligo treated with fractional Er:YAG laser‐assisted delivery of topical compound betamethasone solution.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Patients were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, with data collected from medical records and photographs.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
An ablative fractional 2940‐nm Er:YAG laser (Profile Multi‐Platform System laser; Sciton Corporation, CA) and compound betamethasone ampule (DIPROSPAN; Schering‐Plough Co., Ltd. Heist‐op‐den‐Berg, Belgium) were used.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Laser treatment was performed with specific parameters, followed by topical application of betamethasone solution under occlusion.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Logistic regression models were used to analyze factors associated with treatment efficacy and adverse events.
