Background:
The aim of this comparative registry study was to evaluate the supplementation with Pycnogenol® in subjects with Behçet syndrome (BS) with symptoms impairing their quality of life despite being in a remitting phase of the disease.
Methods:
Thirty-four patients with a confirmed diagnosis of BS were divided into the control group (without supplement) or the active group, in this specific case using Pycnogenol® (Horphag Research LTD) supplement at the daily dose of 150 mg (50 mg tid) for 4 weeks.
Results:
All subjects receiving Pycnogenol® reported a significant decrease in symptoms, such as burning/pain due to dryness and ulcerations (P<0.05). In addition, Pycnogenol® showed important anti-inflammatory activity by decreasing ESR, leucocytosis and Pathergy Test response.
Conclusions:
Pycnogenol® may be a useful supplementation for the management of BS.

Multiple Regression
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...

Regression Analysis
In regression analysis, a regression equation is determined based on the line of best fit– a line that best fits the data points plotted in a graph. This line is also called the regression line. The algebraic equation for the regression line is called the regression equation. It is represented as:
