Trial Outcomes

Change in Histologic Score Diagnosis and Treatment Group

Change scores were computed by subtracting baseline histologic score from End of Study histologic score. Slides were formalin fixed. Histologic Score has been developed by this research group over the course of Grant (reference below). A standardized form captures data on the following criteria: basal or suprabasilar pleomorphism (atypia); inflammation; hyperkeratosis; parakeratosis. The atypia and inflammation were rated as: none (0), mild to moderate(1), and severe (2). The remaining criteria were rated as present (1) or absent (0). Histologic Scores were computed by adding together the codes for the histologic criteria. Higher scores reflected higher level of epidermal /dermal damage. (NCT00601640)

Changes in Putrescine Over 3 Months

Putrescine is measured in nmole/g skin per biopsy. Baseline and End of Study biopsies were measured and the change was produced by subtracting baseline levels from End of Study levels. There was one baseline biopsy and one End of Study biopsy per participant. (NCT00601640)
