NCT07349940
The project is a national, prospective, multicenter, single-arm interventional pilot of screening skin tumors in the Czech Republic. The primary aim of the project is to methodically prepare, implement and evaluate a pilot project that will verify the suitability of the proposed procedure of early detection of skin tumors by using a telemedicine tools and setting up and testing new methods and implementation into the system of social health care.
NCT07247123
Skin cancer is a significant public health concern, even in an Asian society like Singapore where it ranks among the top 10 cancers. This RCT tests the effectiveness of a skin cancer educational intervention to improve skin cancer outcomes among skin-of-color individuals, including the effects of gain versus loss framing.
NCT00709306
The purpose of the proposed project is to investigate the efficacy and longevity of two novel approaches to changing skin protection behaviors: 1) UV-detect photos that reveal currently existing skin damage and 2) motivational interviewing (MI), a person-centered, yet directive counseling style used to enhance internal motivation to change health behaviors. The proposed investigations include a pilot study to refine the methodology; a small formal randomized controlled efficacy trial; and a dismantling study. These studies will also expand current knowledge and research in several major ways: 1) the use of UV-detect photos will enable highly salient and personalized feedback, 2) MI will be used in a previously untried health domain (skin cancer prevention), 3) objective skin color changes will be measured using state-of-the-art skin reflectance spectrophotometry, and 4) the proposed studies will test aspects of several major psychological theories (e.g., Transtheoretical Model, Prototype/Willingness Model) to identify moderators/mediators of outcome.
NCT01804595
This is a randomized controlled trial testing the efficacy of 4 sun protection interventions--education only; education and mailed sunscreen; education and text message reminders; and education, mailed sunscreen, and text message reminders--among Michigan Operating Engineers. Pre- and post-intervention surveys will be collected to determine changes in sunscreen use and sun burning, the primary outcome variables. The investigators hypothesize that all interventions will increase sunscreen use and reduce burning and that the education-only intervention will have the least effect of the 4 interventions while the education, mailed sunscreen, and text messaging arm will have the greatest effect.
