1. Efficacy and safety of dimeticones in the treatment of epidermal parasitic skin diseases with special emphasis on tungiasis: an evidence-based critical review
ABSTRACT Epidermal parasitic skin diseases encompass scabies, pediculosis, cutaneous larva migrans, myiasis, and tungiasis. Tungiasis is probably the most neglected of all Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD). It occurs in South America, the Caribbean and Sub-Saharan Africa and affects marginalized populations where people live in extreme poverty. In endemic co

2. Periungual basal cell carcinoma
Abstract: Periungual basal cell carcinoma is rare and needs to be differentiated from other common diseases that affect this region. Several factors are associated with the development of this tumor, and sun damage seems to play an important role in its pathogenesis. Dermoscopy of clinically indolent lesions on the nail unit can shorten the diagnostic proces

3. Prevalence of and risk factors for intestinal parasite infections in pediatric patients admitted to public hospitals in Southern Brazil
Abstract INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of intestinal parasitosis and to identify risk factors associated therewith in hospitalized children. METHODS: Three fecal samples from each patient were evaluated using three different techniques. The patients’ nutritional and socioeconomic status and hematologic profiles were evaluated.

4. Melanoma do aparelho ungueal: uma oportunidade diagnóstica
Melanoma Maligno é uma neoplasia de alta mortalidade, sendo raro o acometimento do aparelho ungueal. Apenas 2/3 dos pacientes procuram atendimento médico devido lesão melanocítica ungueal recente, tornando o diagnóstico tardio e com prognóstico pior que do melanoma cutâneo. Descreve-se um caso de paciente sexo feminino, apresentando lesões ulceradas

5. Prevalence and Risk factors for Onychomycosis in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases / ONICOMICOSES EM PACIENTES COM DOENÇAS INFLAMATÓRIAS INTESTINAIS: PREVALÊNCIA E FATORES DE RISCO
Background As far as we have sought for in Medline and PubMed, no one study until now, has evaluated the prevalence of onychomycosis in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). As there are great evidence of immunological disturbances linked to IBD, a possible relationship of this nail infection in association with those diseases and the possible risk

7. Overcoming Functional Redundancy To Elicit Pachyonychia Congenita-Like Nail Lesions in Transgenic Mice
Mutations affecting the coding sequence of intermediate filament (IF) proteins account for >30 disorders, including numerous skin bullous diseases, myopathies, neuropathies, and even progeria. The manipulation of IF genes in mice has been widely successful for modeling key features of such clinically distinct disorders. A notable exception is pachyonychia co

8. The LIM-homeodomain transcription factor Lmx1b plays a crucial role in podocytes
Patients with nail-patella syndrome often suffer from a nephropathy, which ultimately results in chronic renal failure. The finding that this disease is caused by mutations in the transcription factor LMX1B, which in the kidney is expressed exclusively in podocytes, offers the opportunity for a better understanding of the renal pathogenesis. In our analysis

9. Hereditary twenty-nail dystrophy in a Sicilian family
Over three successive generations four members of a Sicilian family showed early onset, slowly progressive dystrophy of the finger and toe nails, without any other anomalies or skin signs. Histological examination performed in two patients enabled us to discount lichen planus and other underlying diseases. The hereditary and idiopathic nature of the disease

10. Engelmann's disease of bone--a systemic disorder?
A patient with Engelmann's disease of bone (progressive diaphyseal dysplasia) also suffered from Raynaud's phenomenon, multiple nail fold infarcts, anaemia, leucopenia, hepatosplenomegaly, and a raised erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Her mother, who also had this inherited bone disease, was known to have Raynaud's phenomenon, necrotising vasculitis, and digi

11. HLA-B27 heavy chains contribute to spontaneous inflammatory disease in B27/human beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) double transgenic mice with disrupted mouse beta2m.
MHC class I allele, HLA-B27, is strongly associated with a group of human diseases called spondyloarthropathies. Some of these diseases have an onset after an enteric or genitourinary infection. In the present study, we describe spontaneous disease in HLA-B27 transgenic mice where endogenous beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) gene was replaced with transgenic huma

12. Chronic transmural bronchiolitis: a non-specific lesion of small airways.
AIMS: To investigate nine patients with histological changes at open lung biopsy compatible with so-called "small airways disease"; to define these changes and distinguish them from other types of bronchiolitis; and to correlate them with clinical features, respiratory physiology, and other laboratory investigations. METHODS: The open biopsy sections and the
