This study reported that 83.1% of patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis experienced skin conditions, with xerosis affecting 63.6%, pruritis 36.4%, and notable occurrences of nail and oral anomalies, indicating a need for targeted dermatological management to improve patients' quality of life.

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.

This study found that autologous serum platelet-rich plasma improved skin quality and reduced wrinkles, texture, and pores in healthy females, partly by regulating the expression of MMP-1, tyrosinase, fibrillin, and tropoelastin.

This article discusses the surveillance and spread of hand, foot, and mouth disease in China, Singapore, and Indonesia, and reports no new results, emphasizing the need for improved prevention and management strategies.

This study found significant weight loss and reductions in blood pressure and serum triglycerides among obese patients following a multidisciplinary program with a very low calorie ketogenic diet.

This case study describes a young dog in Colorado diagnosed with severe leishmaniasis, suggesting potential endemic spread in the area, and notes dermatologic symptoms as a signal for consideration of the disease.

This article reviews Frambusia, a skin-contact-spread tropical infection, and stresses improving medical professionals' diagnostic and treatment skills to achieve the WHO's eradication target by 2030, without reporting new results.

The document describes skin diseases affecting the outer ear in dogs and cats, their spread to other body parts, and treatment options.

The researchers reported that in mice, prolactin signaling in the skin epithelium inhibits hair follicle stem cell activation, promoting quiescence during periods of high serum prolactin like pregnancy and lactation.

This study reported an increase in tinea capitis in Stockholm children, mainly caused by Trichophyton violaceum and associated with immigration from Africa and family spread.

In this study conducted on Iraqi individuals with celiac disease not on a gluten-free diet, researchers observed elevated serum urea and creatinine levels, which may indicate an increased risk of renal dysfunction, alongside decreased magnesium, zinc, and vitamin C compared to healthy controls.

This study found that variations in the genes PDCD4, miR-21, and miR-449b may significantly influence breast cancer progression, with higher PDCD4 serum levels linked to increased breastfeeding.

In this study, researchers used patient-derived organoids to model metastasis in colorectal cancer and discovered that cancer cells temporarily switch to a wound-healing program, orchestrated by reduced EZH2 activity and YAP signaling, before spreading to new organs.
