Subcutaneous Panniculitis-like T-lymphoma (SPTL) is a rare non-epidermotropic cutaneous T cell lymphoma, which perform 1% of all non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas. The lesions are usually localized in the upper limbs and the trunk. the localization on the cheeks is unusual. The diagnosis of SPTCL depends on the pathologic examination of skin biopsy, but the manifestations of SPTCL are varied and mimic autoimmune disorders. We report a case of a subcutaneous panniculitis-like t-cell lymphoma with an unusual localization in the cheek, mimicking a lupus erythematosus panniculitis, evolving since 2 years in a 40-year-old woman...... -

Lichen amyloidosis (LA) is the most common form of primary cutaneous amyloidosis. It’s a very pruritic hyperkeratotic and coalescent papules usually localized on the anterior tibiae. The diagnostic is clinical, dermoscopy reveals two major dermoscopic patterns characteristic of LA, namely, ‘central hub’ and ‘scar-like’...... -

Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous systemic disease of undetermined origin. Its dermatological manifestations are present in 25% of cases and they are very polymorphic. Nail abnormalities are unusual in sarcoidosis and are often an indication of systemic involvement. Dermoscopy of the nail may be very useful in some isolated cases and can guide us to the right diagnosis. We report a rare case of systemic sarcoidosis presenting as nail dystrophy with painful phalanges and underlying bony cysts, treated successfully by oral corticosteroid with good evolution..... -

Ocular manifestations of rosacea are commonly nonspecific and variable. The etiology of the inflammation is not fully known and there is no definite diagnostic test for the disease. We often under diagnose the disease, despite the potential for serious sightthreatening sequelae. When evaluating patients with rosacea, dermatologists and family physicians should obtain a careful history of eye complaints and examine the eyelid margins thoroughly. Patients with moderate-to-severe ocular findings will benefit from evaluation by an ophthalmologist. Controlling symptoms and preventing potential risk of blindness should be the aim of early diagnosis and prompt intervention. The mainstay of treatment is good lid hygiene, topical metronidazole, topical azithromycin eye drops, topical cyclosporine, and oral tetracycline. The aim of this review is ..... -

Life-threatening illness occurs due to Aspergillus species cause a spectrum of disease ranging from airway colonization. In case of respiratory tract, aspergilloma is the most common form of pulmonary involvement, which is usually accompanied by preexisting lung disease finally architectural abnormalities most commonly stem from tuberculosis, although other associated conditions, such as sarcoidosis, bronchiectasis, and neoplasm, have been documented. Methodology: The present work comprised of synthesis and cyclization of substituted benzothiazole nucleus by reaction of substituted aniline with potassium thiocynate in presence of bromine in glacial acetic acid and ammonia under temperature control. Substituted benzothiazole then condensed with 2 (3 or 4)-nitrobenzoylchloride acid in presence of dry pyridine and acetone to get substitut..... -

The human scalp is susceptible to microbial build-up if not thoroughly and frequently washed with the appropriate cleansing agents such as shampoos. Natural oils are presented in our scalp and it called as a sebum and it is a fuel/food for the dandruff-causing microbe. Malassezia feeds off these oils, breaking it down into by products, including oleic acid; formation of oleic acid is a starting/kick point of dandruff. Approximately 50% people in the world sensitive to the oleic acid and affected by the dandruff. Overall clinical study results revealed that usage of tested anti-dandruff shampoo is effective and significantly reduce the dandruff fungi in scalp. Efficacy was analyzed with changes in the intensity of hair fall over 6 weeks from baseline to treatment visits using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The average res..... -

Background: Documented evidence confirms that inhalation of toxic substances emitted during charcoal production is associated with lung function deficits and respiratory symptoms nonetheless; other factors could also give rise to the similar respiratory disorders or problems. This study was designed to ascertain the influence other impinging factors wield on the respiratory symptoms and lung function deficits among workers at wood-burning earth kilns. Methodology: This was a cross-sectional analytic study conducted among workers exposed to wood smoke from wood-burning earth kilns in Southern Nigeria. A comprehensive sampling of all workers who willing consented to participate in this study was done since the workers were few. A modified Medical Research Council Questionnaire as well as a portable spirometer was the study instrument...... -

Background Globally, including the United States, cigarette smoking is the single most important cause of premature death, even though it is preventable. The prevalence of smoking is high, although some resources have been dedicated to this problem. A variety of interventions have been tried on smoking prevention. From the public health perspective, it is the biggest concern. As there are numerous health benefits of smoking cessation, most individuals who smoke express a desire to quit. Studies show that most smokers in the United States and the United Kingdom report that they want to stop or intend to leave smoking at some point in life Hyland [1]. A multitude of non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions now exist to aid smokers in cessation. Objectives To bring awareness among public and policy makers. To provide ev..... -

Background: Epidemiologic data on atopic diseases are scared. Different studies have shown that the burden of atopic diseases is varying in space and time. Several factors are impacting on epidemiology of atopic in children. Among them, MMR vaccination has been a topic of divergences. Objective: To establish whether the MMR vaccination may influence the risk of atopic diseases in children. Methods: We conducted electronic search terms included MESH or key words with “Atopic diseases†and “MMR vaccination†and “Childrenâ€. Databases for peer-reviewed articles included Pub Med, CENTRAL, Scopus and CINAHL Plus. Additionally, Grey literature was obtained from Google and WHO database. Main results: Among 304 potentially relevant articles identified, 8 peer-reviewed articles met the inclusion criteria. Due to the lack of stan.....
