Assessing Public Awareness and Perception of Teledermatology Via Survey.

Introduction: Teledermatology represents an alternative medical approach allowing for the remote assessment of a patient's clinical information without the need for face-to-face consultations.

Objectives: This study aims to gauge the public's awareness and perception of teledermatology.

Methods: This research employed a cross-sectional observational design.

The relationship between seborrheic dermatitis and body composition parameters.

Objective: Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a chronic, recurrent inflammatory skin disease characterized by clinically scaly patches. It is known that skin diseases with chronic inflammation are associated with comorbid conditions such as metabolic syndrome, obesity, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and diabetes. In recent years, there are studies investigating the relationship of SD with metabolic syndrome, hypertension, obesity and nutritional factors.

The role of childhood trauma in patients with chronic urticaria.

Objective: Chronic urticaria (CU) is a common skin disease in which the etiology involves immunological and psychological factors. Childhood traumas may disrupt the development of the neuro-immuno-cutaneous-endocrine system and start a complex pathophysiological process with inflammatory abnormalities, potentially leading to the development of skin disease. In light of this information, we believe that childhood trauma may play a role in the onset and severity of disease in CU patients.

Evaluation of plasma zonulin level and its relationship with inflammatory cytokines in patients with vitiligo.

Background: It has been proven that there is an increase in intestinal permeability in some autoimmune diseases. In our study, we purposed to assess intestinal permeability in vitiligo disease by looking at zonulin levels. At the same time, we aimed to examine the correlation of inflammatory cytokines and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) levels with zonulin.

The effect of COVID-19 on development of hair and nail disorders: a Turkish multicenter, controlled study.

Background: A broad spectrum of skin diseases, including hair and nails, can be directly or indirectly triggered by COVID-19. It is aimed to examine the type and frequency of hair and nail disorders after COVID-19 infection.

Methods: This is a multicenter study conducted on consecutive 2171 post-COVID-19 patients.

Evaluation of serum TWEAK, TRAIL, and oxidative stress markers in rosacea patients.

Background: Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disease of unknown pathogenesis. TWEAK and TRAIL are two cytokines thought to have a role in the pathogenesis of some inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

Aims: The purpose of this study was to examine TWEAK and TRAIL serum levels and oxidative stress markers in patients with rosacea.

Evaluation of the effect of 577-nm pro-yellow laser on demodex intensity.

The skin disease of the pilosebaceous unit created by demodex mites is called demodicosis. Recently, it has been brought to the agenda that laser therapies can be effective in reducing the intensity of demodex parasite. With this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of pro-yellow laser applied to the face on the intensity of demodex parasite.

Platelet rich plasma application by dermapen microneedling and intradermal point-by-point injection methods, and their comparison with clinical findings and trichoscan in patients with androgenetic alopecia.

Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a progressive hair loss disease that occurs with the effect of androgens and genetic predisposition. Hair thinning and hair loss affect people's self-confidence and self-image more than is thought. In these patients, platelet rich plasma (PRP) treatment is used in addition to the limited medical treatments available.

Psychiatric basics of alopecia areata in pediatric patients: Evaluation of emotion dysregulation, somatization, depression, and anxiety levels.

Background/objective: Alopecia areata (AA) is a skin disease characterized by sudden-onset hair loss. The relationship between psychiatric status and AA has not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to evaluate emotion dysregulation, somatization, depression, and anxiety levels in children and adolescents with AA.
