Article Synopsis
- Atopic dermatitis (AD) greatly affects patients' quality of life, and existing guidelines often target specialists instead of primary care physicians (PCPs).
- A study aimed to create a consensus document specifically for PCPs, offering evidence-based recommendations to enhance AD patient diagnosis and management.
- The document identifies obstacles PCPs face in implementing guidelines and provides consensus solutions to improve care for AD patients across different medical specialties.
A rare presentation of glycogenic acanthosis on the lips: A case report.
SAGE Open Med Case Rep
December 2024
Glycogenic acanthosis (GA) is a benign, asymptomatic condition commonly found in the lower third of the esophagus. This case report presents a unique occurrence of GA on the lips of a 55-year-old male smoker, who exhibited asymptomatic white lesions on his upper and lower lips for many years. Physical examination revealed multiple white papules on the wet-dry vermilion border of the lips.

Here we identified SSG of the ventricular isoform of myosin light chain 1 (MLC-1v) in human, swine, and mouse cardiac tissues using top-down mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics. Our results enabled the accurate identification, quantification, and site-specific localization of SSG in MLC-1v across different species.

- Hymenoptera is an insect order that includes species like honeybees and wasps, and their venom can cause severe allergic reactions in dogs, similar to humans.
- A study examined the medical histories of 178 dogs stung by these insects to understand risk factors for severe systemic reactions (SSRs), finding that younger dogs, smaller breeds, and those stung in sensitive areas faced higher risks.
- The research highlighted that many dogs with SSRs experienced similar or worse symptoms upon subsequent stings, indicating a strong case for using venom immunotherapy (VIT) for affected dogs.
Peer relationships are critical in the development of positive mental health during childhood and adolescence. Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms can adversely affect the development of positive peer relationships, and thus, have significant long-term implications for mental health. This study explored the long-term relationships between ADHD symptoms, peer relationships and mental health in Western Australian adolescents.
