Patient outcomes are improved when dermatologists provide inpatient consultations. Inpatient access to is limited, illustrating an opportunity use teledermatology. Little known about the ability of accurately diagnose disease and manage inpatients with teledermatology, particularly using nondermatologist-generated clinical data.This prospective study assessed teledermatology 41 dermatology consultations from a large urban tertiary care center, internal medicine referral documentation...
Background: The teaching of reflection and the use reflective writing assignments is commonplace in medical school education. There a preponderance research education, which appraises discusses new ways reflection.Aims: Students often complain about having to write their experience with that patient. This work explores some reasoning between variability student acceptance education.Methods: method based on available literature as well personal perspective regarding education.Results:...
We describe here different types of horizontal cells in the zebrafish retina and how they connect to photoreceptors. To label cells, crystals DiI were placed onto tips pulled glass pipettes inserted into inner nuclear layer fixed whole-mount retinas. The DiI-labeled imaged by confocal microscopy analyzed according dendritic arborization, cell depth, terminal morphology, connectivity with Three unequivocally identified: two cone-connecting (H1/2 H3) one rod-related cell. H1/2 have terminals...
Introduction: To date, few studies using a human papillomavirus (HPV)-specific questionnaire have focused on the impact of quality life (QoL) among women with HPV-related lesions in developing countries. Methods: A multicenter, hospital-based survey was conducted from 2007 to 2008. Women 18 65 years old who had or underwent screening interventions during past 3 months were recruited and divided into 6 groups based different diagnoses: (1) normal Papanicolaou (Pap) test result, (2) abnormal...
Dystrophic calcinosis cutis is a debilitating condition of calcium salt deposition in the skin often occurring association with connective tissue disease (CTD). Available treatments for are unsatisfactory, but given recent use topical and intralesional sodium thiosulfate (STS) to treat calcifying disorders, we sought describe intravenous (IV) STS CTD-associated dystrophic cutis. We report three patients long-standing extensive treated IV after having failed multiple prior therapies. All...
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an aggressive cutaneous malignancy, but little known about the presence or characteristics of MCC in mainland China. A retrospective chart review was conducted to describe clinical profile
Abstract Background and Objectives Linxian in Henan Province, China, has among the highest rates of esophageal cancer worldwide. Little is known about long‐term survival after esophagectomy for early neoplastic lesions found during detection screening. A analysis was performed 315 patients from who received squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods Cases that ESCC were age‐ gender‐matched with two healthy controls, Kaplan–Meier analyses both groups. Results Ten‐year 77% cases 64% this...
Background There are a number of sound justifications for publishing nearly identical information in Chinese and English medical journals, assuming several conditions met. Although overlap publication is perceived as undesirable ethically questionable Europe North America, it may serve an important function some regions where not the native tongue. no empirical data on nature degree language journals. Methods/Principal Findings A random sample 100 manuscripts from institutions was selected...
Abstract Background The diagnosis of Lyme disease relies on the accurate erythema chronicum migrans ( ECM ) because serologic tests, culture, and polymerase chain reactions are often inaccurate. Although is classically associated with a targetoid rash, there many variants this lesion. These initially diagnosed as cellulitis or spider bite treated oral antibiotics. Inappropriate treatment further delays disease, leading to late complications. Methods We present four cases vesiculobullous...
A 68-year-old male with chronic kidney disease presented painful recent-onset lower extremity skin lesions (Image 1). These had been slowly developing over the previous 3 months, following a recent admission for treatment of acute membranous glomerulonephritis and deep vein thrombosis which warfarin was initiated. His past medical history is significant coronary artery Type 2 diabetes mellitus, well controlled on insulin. Phosphorus (5.5 mg/dL) parathyroid hormone (113 pg/mL) were elevated...
Idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (IHES) is a rare disorder defined by (1) eosinophilia (eosinophil count > 1.5 × 109/L) on 2 examinations 1 month apart, (2) organ damage and/or dysfunction attributable to tissue hypereosinophilia, and (3) lack of clear alternate cause.1 Eosinophil-related consists eosinophilic infiltrates associated with fibrosis, thrombosis, cutaneous erythema or ulceration. It occurs predominantly in men ages 20 50 years.2 Systemic manifestations include...
Pemphigus vulgaris is an uncommon intraepidermal blistering disorder that typically presents with flaccid bullae or erosions. We report a patient pemphigus who presented several unusual clinical features: tense dependently layered pus, true target lesions coalescing into annular configurations, and diffuse desquamation initially raised concern for toxic epidermal necrolysis. discuss the differential diagnosis implications of these morphological findings.
