Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Introduction: This double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled clinical study evaluated the effects of trans-resveratrol on skin health. To date, and to the best of our knowledge, no study has tested trans-resveratrol as the only active ingredient, orally or topically, for improving skin parameters in humans. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of trans-resveratrol on skin health and visible signs of ageing, when administered orally and/or applied topically to the face. Methods: Healthy females aged 40 years and older were randomly assigned to one of four groups: placebo oral and topical (P/P Group), trans-resveratrol oral and placebo topical (A/P Group), placebo oral and trans-resveratrol topical (P/A Group), and trans-resveratrol oral and topical (A/A Group). Participants were instructed to take one capsule (75 mg trans-resveratrol) and apply 1 g of cream (1.5% trans-resveratrol) twice daily for 8 weeks. Outcome measures included wrinkle assessment, skin age, temperature, pore size, forehead lines, glabellar lines, Crow's feet, nasolabial folds, pigmentation, sebum levels, moisture, and elasticity, along with a self-assessment questionnaire, serum trans-resveratrol concentrations, and safety. Results: Out of 134 participants enrolled, 122 completed the study. Results indicated significantly reduced wrinkle scores in the A/A Group compared to the P/P Group at week 8. All treatment groups showed increased sebum levels, with the active topical groups (P/A and A/A Groups) having significantly higher U-zone sebum at week 8 compared to placebo topical groups (P/P and A/P Groups). No significant differences were found in other skin parameters. Serum trans-resveratrol conjugate levels increased significantly in the A/P and A/A Groups at week 4 and 8. All trial products were shown to be safe with minimal and only mild adverse events recorded in every group. Conclusion: Oral and topical trans-resveratrol treatment can help improve skin health parameters. When taken orally and applied topically, trans-resveratrol was effective at wrinkle reduction, and when applied topically, it increased sebum levels.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
