NCT05046015

Brief Summary

The overall aims of this study are to compare the structure and function of dry to very dry and cracked foot skin between diabetic and nondiabetic subjects and to evaluate the effects of two cosmetic leave-on products on dry and fissured diabetic foot skin. Specific issues are: Are there any differences between the morphological and functional characteristics of dry to very dry and cracked skin foot between diabetic and nondiabetic subjects? What are the effects of a 4-week once daily application of an intensive care foot ointment (urea 10% foot ointment) or foot lotion (10% Urea foot lotion) on the skin barrier and on clinical signs of dryness and fissures?

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline in Overall Dry Skin Score

    Clinical assessment of the presence or severity of skin dryness using a 7 point scale at the sole of the foot (randomized). A score of '0' indicated normal skin/no sign of dryness, whereas a score of '6' indicates large-scale plates, deep erythematous fissures and cracks

    Baseline; Day 28±2

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Skin barrier

    Day 0, Day 14±1,Day 28±2

Other Outcomes (8)

  • Stratum corneum hydration

    Day 28

  • Skin surface pH

    Day 0 , Day 14, Day 28

  • Epidermal thickness
