Butterfly effect and acne-The role of diet.

11, 2020

The authors aim to present the butterfly effect, a concept based on the theory that small changes might have a powerful effect, as an example of the important connection between diet and acne. Western diet is currently a well-known environmental factor which, mainly via the overstimulation of mTORC1 (mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1), is responsible for the development and aggravation of acne and other age-related diseases of civilization. From the authors' point of view, "the butterfly effect" extrapolated to acne and diet depicts the importance of dietary interventions in acne so as to prevent more serious mTORC1-driven diseases of civilization like obesity, diabetes, and cancer. read more

Complications of laser hair removal-How we could reduce them?

07, 2020

Laser hair removal became a very popular intervention, with a permanently increasing number of procedures being performed worldwide. The procedure is often performed by nonmedical personnel, and even by untrained personnel, that could be associated with different kind of adverse events, from mild to serious. The complications associated could be lower if the operators understand the basic of laser physics and the working principles of devices. We propose a simple acronym, WATCH, in order to increase the safety and efficiency of laser interventions. read more

Diseases of Civilization - Cancer, Diabetes, Obesity and Acne - the Implication of Milk, IGF-1 and mTORC1.

Dec, 2018

Nutrition and food are one of the most complex aspects of human lives, being influenced by biochemical, psychological, social and cultural factors. The Western diet is the prototype of modern dietary pattern and is mainly characterized by the intake of large amounts of red meat, dairy products, refined grains and sugar. Large amounts of scientific evidence positively correlate Western diet to acne, obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer, the so-called "diseases of civilization". The pathophysiological common ground of all these pathologies is the IGF-1 and mTORC pathways, which will be disscussed further in this paper. read more

Interdigital melanoma simultaneously affecting two neighboring interdigital spaces : First description in the medical literature.

Nov, 2018

Interdigital melanoma, as a subtype of acral lentiginous melanoma, is relatively uncommon in the Caucasian population. It frequently goes unrecognized for a prolonged period of time prior to diagnosis, due to its asymptomatic nature and variable clinical appearance. read more

Butterfly Effect - the Concept and the Implications in Dermatology, Acne, and Rosacea.

Jun, 2018

Acne and Rosacea are chronic inflammatory skin diseases with an increasing frequency and an important negative impact on the quality of life, which are associated with a large number of false myths regarding causes and treatment. The butterfly effect is associated with chaos theory, and it is a concept originated in meteorology, which represents the dependence on initial conditions. read more

Perceived Age and Life Style. The Specific Contributions of Seven Factors Involved in Health and Beauty.

Sep, 2017

The skin is a dynamic, visible organ, showing the most obvious signs of aging. The mechanisms of extrinsic aging, most of them presented in this paper, are currently well known and also the only ones that can be counteracted. Therefore, the transition of this knowledge in the general population is of the most importance, in order to introduce healthy aging strategies, to prevent the development of chronic or malignant diseases and psychological burden related to old age. read more

Multicenter clinical trial on the performance and tolerability of the Hyaluronic acid-collagenase ointment for the treatment of chronic venous ulcers: a preliminary pilot study.

Oct, 2013

Bed debridement is important to treat chronic wounds. Effective agents should remove the necrosis but protect the granulation tissue. We evaluated the performance and tolerability of a new composite ointment containing collagenase and hyaluronic acid for chronic venous ulcers. read more

Bacillus cereus strain isolated from Demodex folliculorum in patients with topical steroid-induced rosaceiform facial dermatitis.

2016

The aim of the study was to identify Bacillus species from the Demodex folliculorum of patients with topical steroidinduced facial rosaceiform dermatitis. Of the 75 patients examined, 20% had clinical spinulosis, while 18.66% had dermoscopic features of Demodex: follicular plugs and tails. Of the 17.33% positive patients identified upon microscopy for Demodex, samples for bacterial culture were plated on trypticase soy Colombia agar. Identification was performed by microorganisms grown method mass spectrometry. We identified a strain of Bacillus cereus. read more

Oxidative stress and alopecia areata.

2015

Alopecia areata (AA) is an inflammatory and autoimmune disease presenting with non-scarring hair loss. The aethiopathogenesis of alopecia areata is unclear and many factors including autoimmunity, genetic predisposition, emotional and environmental stress are thought to play important roles in its development. Antioxidant/ oxidant balance perturbation is a common feature in autoimmune, emotional and environmental stress. Therefore, our paper discusses the implications of oxidative stress in alopecia areata. read more
