Nasty/Rzany An evidence-based guideline has been defined as ‘a systematically developed statement that assists clinicians and patients in making decisions about appropriate treatment for a specific condition’.1 A will never encompass therapy specifications all medical decision-making situations. Deviation from the recommendations may, therefore, be justified This is not textbook on acne, nor complete, all-inclusive reference aspects important to of acne. The presentation safety particular...
This is a short summary of the complete version S3 European Acne guideline, please see online appendix for full text (Document S1. Long Version) and detailed methods report (DOI: 10.1111/jdv.13783). Expiry date: 31 December 2020 In order to grade recommendation "standardized guideline" language was used: Recommendations are based on available evidence expert consensus. Available voting lead classification strength recommendation. Adapalene + BPO (f.c.) or Clindamycin e Azelaic acid Topical...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate a possible role for nerve growth factor (NGF) in the mechanism pain and hyperalgesia induced by deep adenomyotic nodules other forms endometriosis clarify relationship between endometriotic lesions surrounding nerves. METHODS: Endometriotic (deep nodules, peritoneal endometriosis, ovarian endometriosis) eutopic endometrium were obtained from 51 patients presenting with pain. Patients allocated two groups (group 1: nodule (n = 23); group 2:...
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a mesenchymal tumour associated with human herpesvirus-8 infection. However, the incidence of infection far higher than prevalence KS, suggesting that viral per se not sufficient for development malignancy and one or more additional cofactors are required.Epidemiological data suggest iron may be involved in pathogenesis KS. Iron well-known carcinogen favour KS growth through several pathways. Based on apoptotic antiproliferative effect chelation cells, it suggested...
Botulinum toxin type A represents a safe and effective treatment for primary axillary hyperhidrosis. One of the most troublesome disadvantages associated with this therapy is pain at injection sites. Reconstitution botulinum in solution lidocaine could be an easy alternative procedure to reduce discomfort those injections. However, current recommendations are that should reconstituted normal saline.To compare efficacy tolerance profile saline-diluted lidocaine-diluted patients...
Accumulative evidence supports the role of nutritional factors in acne. I report here 5 healthy male adult patients developing acne after consumption whey protein, a favorite supplement those engaged bodybuilding. These observations are line with biochemical and epidemiological data supporting effects milk dairy products as enhancers insulin/insulin-like growth factor 1 signaling aggravation. Further prospective studies required to determine possible dietary supplements fitness bodybuilding...
Background: Meta-analyses (MAs) and network meta-analyses (NMAs) are high-quality studies for assessing drug efficacy, but they time-consuming may be affected by biases. The capacity of artificial intelligence to aggregate huge amounts information is emerging as particularly interesting processing the volume needed generate MAs. In this study, we analyzed whether chatbot ChatGPT able summarize in a useful fashion providers patients way that matches up with results MAs/NMAs. Methods: We...
The laboratory data for 17 patients with group A β-hemolytic streptococcal necrotizing fasciitis (GAS NF) were compared 145 hospitalized cellulitis during the same period. Admission values of C-reactive protein and creatine kinase higher in GAS NF than ( P < .001), suggesting that standard tests may be useful early differential diagnosis cellulitis.
Although curettage is commonly used to treat molluscum contagiosum, prospective studies on its effectiveness are lacking.To evaluate prospectively the efficacy of in treatment contagiosum and identify risk factors associated with failure.A systematic 2-month follow-up survey study was carried out 73 patients treated by for contagiosum.Treatment a high failure at week 4 (42/64, 66%) 8 (25/55, 45%). Risk were number lesions day 0 (P < 0.001), involved anatomical sites 0.001) concomitant atopic...
Vulvar lichen sclerosus (LS) is an inflammatory disease of unknown etiology that may result in significant discomfort and psychological distress postmenopausal women. One the most troublesome features LS its chronically relapsing nature. The aim this study was to investigate effect maintenance therapy with a moisturizer preventing risk relapse progression vulvar women.Between January 1995 2006, 34 women were included prospective open trial. participants treated topical corticosteroid cream...
The role of iron in the pathogenesis several tumours is being increasingly investigated. In particular, its involvement Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) suggested by distribution endemic form KS corresponding to continental rifts and associated iron-oxide-rich volcanic clays. We investigated vitro what extent supplementation or withdrawal could affect growth KS-derived cells, analysing effects adding salts (iron chloride ferric nitrilotriacetate) and/or reducing chelators (desferrioxamine) on cell...
