All subjects showed reductions in the severity of symptoms of both TPI (53.7% reduction) and heel cracks, calluses and/or dry feet (51.6% reduction), beginning already after 2 weeks of treatment, with reduction continuation and improvement after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. Negative mycological cultures were obtained post-treatment in 85.7% of subjects, while 35.7% of subjects also obtained mycological cure (negative mycological culture + negative KOH test). Post-treatment questionnaires showed improved quality of life, good treatment tolerability, easy use, and that 69% of subjects would recommend the product. The results reveal that the foot cream is safe and effective in the combined treatment of TPI and heel cracks, calluses and/or dry feet.展开更多

Patients with already diagnosed skin disease, those who have systemic diseases that may cause skin lesions, patients with malignancies and those who did not give informed consent were excluded from the study. All patients were examined by the same predetermined dermatologist with all fndings recorded. The demographic, clinical and laboratory data including measures of dialysis adequacy of patients were recorded also. Statistical Package for Social Sciences （SPSS） for Windows 16.0 standard version was used for statistical analysis.RESULTS： Among the patients followed up in our PD unit, those without exclusion criteria who gave informed consent, 38 patients were included in the study with male/female ratio and mean age of 26/12 and 50.3 ± 13.7 years, respectively. The duration of CKD was 7.86 ± 4.16 years and the mean PD duration was 47.1 ± 29.6 mo. Primary kidney disease was diabetic nephropathy in 11, nephrosclerosis in six, uropathologies in four, chronic glomerulonephritis in three, chronic pyelonephritis in three, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease in three patients while cause was unknown in eight patients. All patients except for one patient had at least one skin lesion. Loss of lunula, onychomycosis and tinea pedis are the most frequent skin disorders recorded in the study group. Diabetic patients had tinea pedis more frequently （ P = 0.045）. No relationship of skin findings was detected with primary renal diseases, comorbidities and medications that the patients were using.CONCLUSION： Skin abnormalities are common in in PD patients. The most frequent skin pathologies are onychomycosis and tinea pedis which must not be overlooked.展开更多
