Quality of Life and Disease Severity Are Correlated in Patients with Atopic DermatitisQuantification quality life (QOL) related to disease severity is important patients atopic dermatitis (AD), because the assessment provides additional information traditional objective clinical scoring systems.To document impact AD on QOL for both children adults as well quantify relationship severity, assessments were performed over a 6-month period 415 AD.A questionnaire derived from Infants' Dermatitis...
Recent findings from The Cancer Genome Atlas project have provided a comprehensive map of genomic alterations that occur in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), including unexpected mutations apolipoprotein B (APOB). We aimed to determine the clinical significance this non-oncogenetic mutation HCC. An Apob gene signature was derived genes differed between control mice and treated with siRNA specific for (1.5-fold difference; P < 0.005). Human expression data were collected four independent HCC...
Increasing Prevalence of Trichophyton rubrum Identified through an Analysis 115,846 Cases over the Last 37 YearsTrichophyton is most common dermatophyte in world with highest prevalence Korea.There are few reports about epidemiological and mycological characteristics T. based on long-term, large-scale studies.The purpose this study was to investigate clinical infections Korea.We retrospectively investigated patients' records status cases infection that mycologically diagnosed at Catholic...
Tumor hypoxia contributes to the progression of a malignant phenotype and resistance ionizing radiation anticancer drug therapy. Many these effects in hypoxic tumor cells are mediated by expression specific set genes whose relation therapy is poorly understood. In this study, we revealed that DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), which plays crucial role DNA double strand break repair, would be involved regulation inducible factor-1 (HIF-1). HIF-1β-deficient showed constitutively reduced...
Parry-Romberg syndrome (PRS) is a relatively rare degenerative disorder that poorly understood.PRS characterized by slowly progressing atrophy affecting one side of the face, and frequently associated with localized scleroderma, especially linear which known as en coup de sabre.This report author's experiences PRS accompanying sabre, review ongoing considerable debate these two entities.Case 1 was 37-year-old woman who had right hemifacial unilateral sabre for seven years.Fat grafting to her...
Background: Atopic dermatitis is a global public health concern owing to its increasing prevalence and socioeconomic burden.However, few studies have assessed the economic impact of atopic in Korea.Objective: We conducted cost analysis evaluated impacts on individual annual disease burden, quality life, changes medical expenses with respect related-quality life.Methods: The was performed by reviewing home accounting records 32 patients.The analyzing questionnaires.To handle uncertainties, we...
This study examines the effect of annealing time Y2O3 passivation layer on electrical performances and bias stabilities sol–gel-deposited SnO2 thin-film transistors (TFTs). The environmental TFTs were examined. After optimizing layers in TFTs, field-effect mobility was 7.59 cm2/V•s, VTH 9.16 V, subthreshold swing (SS) 0.88 V/decade, on/off-current ratio approximately 1 × 108. shifts only −0.18 +0.06 V under negative positive stresses, respectively. channel thickness oxygen-vacancy...
Primary hyperhidrosis is a disorder of excessive sweating, which shares several features with anxiety disorders and has negative impact on patient's quality life. Oral glycopyrrolate one the treatments available. There are few published studies use given orally in treatment hyperhidrosis.Thies study was review case notes series 36 patients primary hyperhidrosis. We made comparison between Keller's scale score pre-glycopyrrolate medication group f post-glycopyrrolate group. The Milanez de...
Dermatophytes have the ability to form molecular attachments keratin and use it as a source of nutrients, colonizing keratinized tissues, including stratum corneum skin. Malassezia species also affect Therefore, dermatophytosis pityriasis versicolor skin are thought be important factors profound changes in barrier structure function. We aimed describe transepidermal water loss (TEWL), hydration, pH lesions versicolor. Thirty-six patients with (14 tinea cruris, 13 corporis nine pedis or...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> No scoring systems to evaluate overall hair loss activity in alopecia areata (AA) have been established. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> We sought develop a measurement tool (Alopecia Areata Progression Index, AAPI) for the evaluation of AA patients with pigmented hair. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The scalp surface area was divided into 4 quadrants. In each quadrant, scored on basis percentage alopecic...
There is no appropriate in vivo animal model that reflects the inflammatory response of human acne. This study investigated effect Propionibacterium acnes on development acne-like lesions four mouse strains with different degrees immune for an optimal Human P. suspensions (10(8) and 10(9) colony forming unit [CFU]/µl) were injected into backs HR-1, BALB/c, vitamin D receptor-knockout (VDR k/o), severe combined immunodeficiency disease mice. Inflammation levels evaluated two weeks after...
Although oral beta-blocker, propranolol, was shown excellent outcome for infantile hemangioma (IH) up to date, concern of side effects and reluctance treatment-related cumbersome evaluations are major obstacles employ. Instead, topical beta-blockers were recently introduced as an effective alternative, but few studies reported. So we performed a retrospective study IH treated with beta-blockers, timolol maleate 0.5%, adjunctive role pulsed dye laser from 2011 2014. Among 102 enrolled, 61...
Benign lung diseases are common and often do not require specific treatment, but they pose challenges in the distinguishing of them from cancer during low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). This study presents a comprehensive methylation analysis using real-time PCR for minimally invasive diagnoses via employing BALF exosome DNA. A panel seven epigenetic biomarkers was identified, exhibiting patterns achieved an area under curve (AUC) 0.97, with sensitivity specificity rates 88.24% 97.14%,...
Sebaceous gland hyperplasia and increased sebum secretion after irradiation of ultraviolet (UV)-B has been widely accepted. This study was performed to clarify expression inflammatory cytokines irradiating UV-B in cultured sebocytes. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction measure gene cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8 tumor necrosis factor-α, sebocytes exposure 40 70 mJ/cm(2) UV-B. Protein lipid production were measured using enzyme-linked immunoassay analysis...
Background: Various systemic agents have been assessed for the treatment of alopecia areata (AA); however, there is a paucity comparative studies.Objective: To assess and compare cyclosporine betamethasone minipulse therapy as treatments AA with regard to effectiveness safety.Methods: Data were collected from 88 patients who received at least 3 months oral (n=51) or (n=37) AA.Patients ≥50% terminal hair regrowth in alopecic area considered responders.Results: The responder group was 54.9%...
