Background: The patient and observer scar assessment scale (POSAS) recently emerged as a promising method, reflecting both observer's patient's opinions in evaluating scar.This tool was shown to be consistent reliable burn assessment, but it has not been tested the setting of skin graft cancer patients.Objective: To evaluate facial applied POSAS compare with objective tools.Methods: Twenty three patients, who diagnosed cutaneous malignancy transplanted after Mohs micrographic surgery, were...
Objectives Pruritus in hemodialysis patients (HDP) is one of the serious complications associated with quality life and psychiatric disorder patients. The narrowband ultraviolet B phototherapy (NB-UVB) treatment showed a statistically significant reduction itching when performed more than 4 times compared to conservative for itching, difference was confirmed increase repetition. We aim compare newly developed Nalfuranfine HCL, kappa-opioid receptor agonist, NB-UVB HDP.
Background: It has been suggested digital mucous cysts (DMCs) are associated with osteoarthritis and osteophytes in the elderly, usually have a communicating pedicle joint.Surgical excision is standard therapy high cure rate.Objective: The purpose of this prospective study to evaluate features DMCs via clinical, radiological pathological examination efficacy surgical DMCs.Methods: Between 2010 2014, 24 Korean patients were treated resection cyst pedicle.Preoperative X-ray ultrasonography...
Homosalate (HMS) is an ultraviolet (UV) filtering agent used in sunscreens and other cosmetics for skin protection purposes. Despite the widespread use of these products, absorption, disposition, vivo endocrine disrupting potential HMS have not been characterized. Thus, aim this study was to examine percutaneous exposure assessment rats. Initially, sunscreen preparations petrolatum jelly, oily solution, lotion, gel were prepared evaluated vitro permeation across excised rat skin. Dermal...
Background: Cellulitis is a common bacterial infection of the superficial skin.Procalcitonin one precursor proteins calcitonin, its levels are elevated in infection, and it has been established as diagnostic marker for severe infections.Objective: This study evaluated clinical usefulness procalcitonin predicting disease severity prognosis cellulitis.Methods: We reviewed medical records 160 patients diagnosed with cellulitis past 3 years.Body temperature, procalcitonin, white blood cell...
mic pruritus in hemodialysis patients, and provided information on its clinical features pathogenesis.The increase serum calcium concentration dialysis patients may have affected the level of epidermal concentration.The altered levels will weaken barrier function skin, leading to increased transepidermal water loss, which cause itching by drying skin patients.
Abstract Excess glucocorticoids (GCs) with either endogenous or exogenous origins deteriorate skin barrier function. GCs bind to mineralocorticoid and GC receptors (MRs GRs) in normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs). Inappropriate MR activation by mediates various GC-induced cutaneous adverse events. We examined whether antagonists can ameliorate GC-mediated dysfunction NHEKs, reconstructed epidermis (RHE), subjects under psychological stress (PS). In a preliminary clinical...
Introduction Hemodialysis (HD) causes many life changes, not only for patients undergoing it but also their families by allowing them to rely on this lifesaving equipment unless they receive a kidney transplant. The stress of the primary caregivers, who spends most time in family taking care patient HD, is quite high. This study was identify attitudes about and coping among caregivers HD patients. Methods Q-methodology undertaken because integrates quantitative qualitative research methods....
Background: Pincer nail deformity and its causes can pose a therapeutic challenge.Ill-fitting shoes subungual exostosis of the toes may be attributed to pincer formation.However, in some cases, could not determined.The role mechanobiology configuration deformities has rarely been considered.Objective: The present study investigated effectiveness surgical procedures correct deformity, terms anatomical changes measured by radiographs.Methods: Two procedures, bed widening with matrixectomy or...
Homosalate is a UV filtering agent used in sunscreens and cosmetics for skin protection purposes. Despite the widespread use of these products, extent vivo exposure to homosalate has not been elucidated. This study first reports development rapid sensitive high performance liquid chromatography-tanden mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method analysis rat plasma its pharmacokinetic characterization after topical application. Chromatographic separation was achieved using Kinetex C18 column (50 mm...
Although the long-term use of topical glucocorticoids (TGC) may induce skin atrophy including striae distensae (SD), patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) appear to have lesser degree than those psoriasis (PSO). Periostin, encoded by POSTN, is involved in tissue remodelling processes chronic AD lesions. This study was designed investigate difference occurrence or PSO when treated TGC and elucidate association between periostin. Big data analysis using Korean Health Claims Database performed...
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal of gastrointestinal tract.It is mainly found in stomach and small intestine.Based on tumor size mitotic index, it classified into very low risk, intermediate risk high risk.Generally, recurrence GIST extremely rare, but rate can be different according to its location.Recently, has been reported that bowel higher than GIST.We report a hepatic duodenal was removed completely through pancreaticoduodenectomy 11 years...
