Purpose: The study aimed to explore the prevalence and possible risk factors prevent face mask related adverse skin reactions during ongoing COVID-19 after a recommendation of wearing for public use in Thailand. Results: was 454 cases (54.5%), which acne most frequent (399; 39.9%), followed by rashes on (154; 18.4%), itch symptoms (130; 15.6%). Wearing surgical showed higher reaction compared cloth mask, OR (95% CI) = 1.54 (1.16-2.06). A duration more than 4 hours/day reuse masks increased...

Neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic liver disease mutations in the SLC25A13 gene. This study presents three cases of NICCD Thai infants, all them exhibited cholestatic jaundice as their primary clinical presentation, with varying degrees severity. Their symptoms spontaneously resolving between 5 to 20 months age. Interestingly, citrulline levels these infants did not consistently indicate elevated seen previous...

Introduction: There are more than 6000 genetic syndromes, therefore the recognition of facial patterns may present a challenge for clinicians. The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2 DS) and Williams (WS) two different syndromes but share some common phenotypic traits subtle dysmorphisms. Therefore, any tool that would help clinicians recognize likely result in accurate diagnosis. Methods: identification accuracy was compared between 2 analysis algorithms (DeepGestalt GestaltMatcher)...
