Laser Therapy

The purpose of this interventional study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a hydrating gel containing aqua, carrageenan, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, algin, gellan gum, and hyaluronic acid. The study will assess the gel's ability to support optimal skin recovery following fractional CO₂ laser therapy and its effectiveness and safety as a daily adjunctive skincare treatment. Outcomes related to skin hydration, skin barrier function, tolerability, and adverse events will be evaluated throughout the study period. Female participants aged 18 to 60 years who provide informed consent will be enrolled in this study. Participants will undergo a 2-week priming period with topical tretinoin prior to fractional CO₂ laser treatment. Clinical evaluations will be performed at baseline, immediately after the laser procedure, and on Days 3, 7, and 14 post-treatment. Assessments conducted by a board-certified dermatologist will include dermoscopy, TEWAmeter assessment, erythema assessment, and evaluation of pain and discomfort using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS).

This study compares two treatment approaches for pilonidal sinus disease: laser treatment alone versus laser treatment combined with phenol application. Pilonidal sinus is a common condition that affects young adults and can cause significant discomfort and time off work. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either laser treatment only (Group A) or laser treatment plus phenol application (Group B). Both treatments are minimally invasive and performed under local anesthesia as day surgery procedures. The main goal is to determine if adding phenol to laser treatment speeds up the healing process (epithelialization) and improves patient outcomes. We will measure healing time, pain levels, return to daily activities, and quality of life over a 3-month follow-up period. This research may help develop more effective treatment protocols that reduce healing time and improve patient comfort for people with pilonidal sinus disease.

Essential tremor is a common neurological disease, the most severe form of which combines postural and intention tremor, with significant physical, psychological and social repercussions. It is in these most severe forms that surgical lesioning of the ventro-intermediate nucleus of the thalamus (VIM) has been proposed. The VIM and its region of interest are almost impossible to identify directly on imaging (especially MRI), as it is part of the thalamus, which has the same intensity. To identify it, teams use average coordinates from stereotactic atlases (imprecise due to the high inter-individual variability of brain anatomy) or retrospective series of implanted patients. The hypothesis of the present trial is that the VIM-RS-LAT-1.0 algorithm developed by RebrAIn for radiosurgery will enable targeting that is at least as effective as conventional targeting. This is a single-center, controlled study, the primary endpoint of which will be assessed at one year, in a blinded, phase 3, comparative, non-inferiority, randomized study in two parallel groups of patients with severe tremor undergoing radiosurgery. In the control group, VIM will be targeted conventionally, and in the experimental group, VIM will be targeted by the RebrAIn algorithm (VIM-RS-LAT-1.0 model) of radiosurgery.
