September 2023 in “Stem cell reviews and reports” This study introduces a new method to isolate stem cells from the hair follicle outer root sheath of equine skin, demonstrating that these cells, named eMSCORS, proliferate efficiently and can differentiate similarly to adipose tissue-derived MSCs, offering a promising alternative for equine veterinary applications.
August 2023 in “JOJ dermatology & cosmetics” This literature review found that antibiotics are a major cause of cutaneous adverse drug reactions, which represent up to 60% of all adverse drug reactions, and emphasized the need for clinicians to better understand and manage these reactions.
January 2023 in “Bio web of conferences/BIO web of conferences” This study identified specific dermoscopic features for differentiating rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, and atopic dermatitis, suggesting dermoscope's value in diagnosing facial erythema with atypical presentations.
January 2023 in “Book of Abstracts” COVID-19 can cause different types of hair loss, with telogen effluvium being the most common.
November 2022 in “Nihon Nyuusankin Gakkaishi/Nihon Nyūsankin Gakkaishi” In a non-blinded study with 12 Japanese participants, applying a lotion containing Lactiplantibacillus plantarum N793 to the scalp for 24 weeks significantly increased hair density and reduced hair loss, with participants reporting improvements in hair thickness and volume, and the treatment deemed safe.
September 2022 in “Institutional Repositories DataBase (IRDB)” 3D-oxy exosomes may significantly boost hair growth, offering new treatment options for hair loss.
January 2022 in “Revista Dermatológica Centro Uraga” In this article, the authors report a case of nearly simultaneous herpes zoster and COVID-19 in a non-immunosuppressed patient.
January 2022 in “Dermatology Review” This study found that patients with chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus had elevated serum levels of interleukin 31, suggesting a possible role of this cytokine in the condition.
November 2021 in “International journal of life science and pharma research” This study reported that a solid lipid nanoparticle-based gel formulation, specifically optimized for psoriasis, improved drug loading capacity and release properties using high-pressure homogenization, suggesting its potential efficacy as a topical treatment.
May 2021 in “International journal of developmental research” This review discusses the role of sex hormones, particularly estrogen and progesterone, in melasma pathogenesis and suggests that progesterone in oral contraceptives may help prevent melasma by regulating melanocyte proliferation.
April 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study observed that photobiomodulation therapy may contribute to hair growth stability or improvement in individuals with darker skin types, without reported adverse events, though its findings are limited by a small sample size.
March 2019 in “Journal of medical science and clinical research” This study found that cutaneous manifestations, including specific skin lesions and oral ulceration, are common early indicators of SLE and may aid in its diagnosis and management.
January 2019 in “ARC journal of pharmaceutical sciences” This review traces the historical understanding and treatment of acne across ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman civilizations, but provides no new clinical findings.
January 2018 in “Springer eBooks” This study discusses how dermatological issues in athletes can arise from or be exacerbated by mechanical trauma, infections, and environmental factors, highlighting the importance of thorough history and examination to differentiate these from other skin conditions.
January 2018 in “Przegla̧d dermatologiczny” This article presents diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations for cutaneous lupus erythematosus from the Polish Dermatological Society, but reports no new clinical findings.
December 2017 in “International Journal of Current Research in Biosciences and Plant Biology” This paper discusses how various nutrients and phytohormones affect root hair growth and suggests further research to understand the genetic and signaling mechanisms involved, but it reports no new experimental findings.
January 2017 in “Springer eBooks” The document explains various skin conditions and their treatments.
January 2017 in “Springer eBooks” This article reviews the classification, pathogenesis, and treatment options for cutaneous lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical findings.
