Registered outcomes3

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTotal Dandruff Severity Score (TDSS)up to 8 weeks
The scalp will be divided into quadrants and for each quadrant the percent of involvement and degree of severity will be assessed. The percent of involvement will be measured on a scale of 0 to 4 in which a score of 0 means less than 10% involvement, and a score of 4, more than 76% involvement. Severity will be measured on a scale of 0 to 3 in which a score of 0 indicates normal skin, and a score of 3, marked erythema with thick confluent plates of yellowish white scales. The whole scalp score will then calculated by multiplying the total percent involvement score by the total severity score. Quadrant scalp score = percent involvement score x severity score Total scalp score = summation of all the quadrant scores TDSS value ranges from 0-48, with 0 equal to no scale, which is the best outcome, compared to 48, which is the most severe and worse outcome
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Are Always Compliant.at end of each treatment period (4 weeks and 8 weeks)
Patient compliance will be evaluated by having patients keep a diary documenting the use of study drug. They will also be questioned about their medication usage at every visit. In addition, we will weigh the study drug at every visit. a patient is classified as always indicates that they use their medicine as directed on their diary on every visit.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Are Very Satisfieddata were collected at end of each treatment period (4 weeks and 8 weeks)Patient satisfaction will be measured using a five point satisfaction scale. 1. very dissatisfied 2. dissatisfied 3. Neutral 4. satisfied 5. very satisfied.
