Increased risk of osteoarthritis in patients with atopic disease
Objectives To determine the incidence of osteoarthrits (OA) in patients with atopic disease compared with matched non-exposed patients.Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study with propensity score matching using claims data from Optum’s de-identified Clinformatics Data Mart (CDM) (January 2003 to June 2019) and electronic health record data from the Stanford Research Repository (STARR) (January 2010 to… Continue reading Increased risk of osteoarthritis in patients with atopic disease
Bioelectronic microfluidic wound healing: a platform for investigating direct current stimulation of injured cell collectives
Upon cutaneous injury, the human body naturally forms an electric field (EF) that acts as a guidance cue for relevant cellular and tissue repair and reorganization. However, the direct current (DC) flow imparted by this EF can be impacted by a variety of diseases. This work delves into the impact of DC stimulation on both… Continue reading Bioelectronic microfluidic wound healing: a platform for investigating direct current stimulation of injured cell collectives
Short-Term Grape Consumption Diminishes UV-Induced Skin Erythema
Over three million Americans are affected by skin cancer each year, largely as a result of exposure to sunlight. The purpose of this study was to determine the potential of grape consumption to modulate UV-induced skin erythema. With 29 human volunteers, we report that nine demonstrated greater resistance to UV irradiation of the skin after… Continue reading Short-Term Grape Consumption Diminishes UV-Induced Skin Erythema
Guidelines of care for the management of atopic dermatitis in adults with topical therapies
BackgroundNew evidence has emerged since the 2014 guidelines that further informs the management of AD with topical therapies. These guidelines update the 2014 recommendations for management of atopic dermatitis (AD) with topical therapies.ObjectiveTo provide evidence-based recommendations related to management of AD in adults using topical treatments.MethodsA multidisciplinary workgroup conducted a systematic review and applied the… Continue reading Guidelines of care for the management of atopic dermatitis in adults with topical therapies
The Association between Sugar-Sweetened Beverages and Male Pattern Hair Loss in Young Men
We performed this study to investigate the association between sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption and male pattern hair loss (MPHL) in young men. We conducted this cross-sectional study from January to April 2022 in mainland China. Young people aged 18–45 years (n = 1951) were recruited from 31 provinces in China. We used a self-reported online survey… Continue reading The Association between Sugar-Sweetened Beverages and Male Pattern Hair Loss in Young Men
Efficacy and Safety of a Fixed-Dose Clindamycin Phosphate 1.2%, Benzoyl Peroxide 3.1%, and Adapalene 0.15% Gel for Moderate-to-Severe Acne: A Randomized Phase II Study of the First Triple-Combination Drug
A three-pronged approach to acne treatment—combining an antibiotic, antibacterial, and retinoid—could provide greater efficacy and tolerability than single or dyad treatments, while potentially improving patient compliance and reducing antibiotic resistance.ObjectivesWe aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of triple-combination, fixed-dose topical clindamycin phosphate 1.2%/benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 3.1%/adapalene 0.15% (IDP-126) gel for the treatment of acne.MethodsIn… Continue reading Efficacy and Safety of a Fixed-Dose Clindamycin Phosphate 1.2%, Benzoyl Peroxide 3.1%, and Adapalene 0.15% Gel for Moderate-to-Severe Acne: A Randomized Phase II Study of the First Triple-Combination Drug
Efficacy of low-dose oral minoxidil in the management of anticancer therapy-induced alopecia in patients with breast cancer: A retrospective cohort study
To the Editor: Alopecia is feared by most patients undergoing systemic anticancer therapy for breast cancer because of its negative impact on quality of life.1 Currently, evidence regarding management of persistent chemotherapy-induced alopecia ( pCIA) and endocrine therapy-induced alopecia (EIA) in patients with breast cancer is lacking.2-4 Although previous studies demonstrated successful use of lowdose… Continue reading Efficacy of low-dose oral minoxidil in the management of anticancer therapy-induced alopecia in patients with breast cancer: A retrospective cohort study
