Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1)Bullous Pemphigoid Disease Activity Index (BPDAI) shall be calculated at baseline in all patients, including the total BPDAI activity score and the total BPDAI damage score 2)histopathological and Direct immunofluorescence patterns: 3) Expression of DPP-4, DPP-8, DPP-9 and Caspase-1 by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in the biopsy specimens shall also be determined in all subjects. 4)time taken to remission 5.)ELISA for anti- BP180 and BP 230 antibodies shall be done to detect antibodies Timepoint: 1)Bullous Pemphigoid Disease Activity Index (BPDAI) shall be calculated at baseline and monthly 2)Histopathological and Direct immunofluorescence patterns, Expression of DPP-4, DPP-8, DPP-9 and Caspase-1 by immunohistochemistry (IHC) ELISA for anti- BP180 and BP 230 antibodies shall be done at baseline and at 6 months or at time of remission (whichever is earlier)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To ascertain the prevalence of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor-induced bullous pemphigoid among cases of bullous pemphigoid 2. To compare the characteristics of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor-induced bullous pemphigoid with those of non-gliptin induced bullous pemphigoid Timepoint: Monthly for 6 months or at remission whichever is earlier
