Outcome measures were assessed at baseline and at weeks 4, 8 and 12 using the nail psoriasis severity index (NAPSI). &lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt; Twenty-two patients having 114 nails involved at baseline with a mean NAPSI of 5.8 \u00b1 1.7 were followed up for 12 weeks. The mean NAPSI at the end of the treatment period was reduced to 1.6 \u00b1 0.6 presenting a 72% improvement. Significant improvement was observed for hyperkeratosis and onycholysis (reduction of mean hyperkeratosis NAPSI from 2.2 \u00b1 0.5 to 0.5 \u00b1 0.1 and mean onycholysis NAPSI from 2.0 \u00b1 0.6 to 0.4 \u00b1 0.2), moderate improvement for oil drops (reduction of mean oil drop NAPSI from 1.2 \u00b1 0.4 to 0.8 \u00b1 0.3) and slight improvement for pitting (reduction of mean pitting NAPSI from 0.8 \u00b1 0.2 to 0.6 \u00b1 0.2). &lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;\/i&gt; The calcipotriol plus betamethasone dipropionate two-compound ointment, applied once daily for 12 weeks, was shown to improve nail psoriasis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000202179","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,12]],"date-time":"2009-02-12T13:44:02Z","timestamp":1234446242000},"page":"338-341","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":58,"title":["Treatment of Nail Psoriasis with a Two-Compound Formulation of Calcipotriol plus Betamethasone Dipropionate Ointment"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"218","author":[{"given":"D.","family":"Rigopoulos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Gregoriou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C.R.","family":"Daniel, III","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H.","family":"Belyayeva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"Larios","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"P.","family":"Verra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Stamou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"Kontochristopoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"Avgerinou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Katsambas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1529-8019.2002.01521.x"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000246274"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1586%2F17469872.3.3.339"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067%2FS0190-9622%2803%2900910-1"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1365-2133.1998.02031.x"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000068469"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.jaad.2007.07.042"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1365-2133.1998.02462.x"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1365-2133.2001.04189.x"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080%2F00015550252948220"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000155642"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000106791"}],"container-title":["Dermatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/202179","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/202179","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T22:41:11Z","timestamp":1745448071000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000202179"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2009]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,4,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000202179","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1018-8665","1421-9832"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1018-8665","type":"print"},{"value":"1421-9832","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2009]]}}}
