Association between the Treatment of Rosacea and Eradication of Infection.

Background: Rosacea is a multifactorial skin inflammatory disorder with an unknown cure. Genetics and environmental factors such as microorganisms are involved in the rosacea etiology, for example, have been suggested in rosacea progression. The present study investigated the relationship between eradication and rosacea patient's improvement.

Seropositivity in the Iranian Patients with the Skin Inflammatory Disorder of Rosacea.

Background: is a skin chronic inflammation with an unknown cause and cure. Environmental and genetic factors could not entirely explain the disease pathogenesis. Recently, infections like are of more attention in the rosacea progression.

Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Methotrexate versus Hydroxychloroquine in Preventing Lichen Planopilaris Progress: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Background: Lichen planopilaris is an inflammatory cicatricial alopecia, and its management is a challenge for dermatologists. We aimed to compare the efficacy of methotrexate and hydroxychloroquine on refractory lichen planopilaris.

Methods: In a randomized clinical trial, 29 patients were randomly allocated to receive either 15 mg methotrexate/week or 200 mg hydroxychloroquine twice a day for 6 months.

The Frequency Distribution of Celiac Autoantibodies in Alopecia Areata.

Background: Alopecia areata (AA) is a noncicatricial (nonscarring) alopecia. The association between AA and celiac disease (CD) is debatable. Several studies declare the relationship between AA and CD as measurement of celiac autoantibodies (anti-gliadin IgA and anti-gliadin IgG), but a few studies consider anti-tissue transglutaminase IgA.

Treatment of Primary Axillary Hyperhidrosis by Fractional Microneedle Radiofrequency: Is it Still Effective after Long-term Follow-up?

Background: Primary axillary hyperhidrosis (PAH) is a chronic idiopathic disorder causing major stress in patients. Among the common therapies for PAH, only surgical interventions have proven feasible as a permanent solution.

Objective And Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fractional microneedle radiofrequency (FMR) as an alternative permanent treatment for PAH with long-term follow-up.

Primary cutaneous lymphomas: A clinical and histological study of 99 cases in Isfahan, Iran.

Background: Primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCLs) represent a heterogeneous group of T- and B-cell lymphomas that present in the skin with no evidence of extracutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis. The aim of this study was to assess and report the epidemiological characteristics of PCLs in Isfahan, Isfahan Province, Iran - as a main province of Iran.

Materials And Methods: A total of 99 patients were recruited over a recent 10-year period (2003-2013) with diagnosis of PCLs; the patients were classified according to the The World Health Organization/European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (WHO-EORTC) criteria.

Quality of life in patients with primary axillary hyperhidrosis before and after treatment with fractionated microneedle radiofrequency.

Background: Primary axillary hyperhidrosis (PAH) is a common condition with a great impact on the patient's quality of life (QOL). It is associated with serious social, emotional, and occupational distress. The aim of this study was to investigate the QOL in patients with PAH before and after treatment with fractionated microneedle radiofrequency (FMR).

Co-existence of various clinical and histopathological features of mycosis fungoides in a young female.

Mycosis fungoides is the most common type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) and a rare disorder that typically affects older adults with erythematous scaling patches and plaques. Hypopigmented patches are a rare clinical variant of the disease. Granulomatous mycosis fungoides (GMF) is also a rare type of CTCL.

Topical tranexamic acid as a promising treatment for melasma.

Background: In recent times, tranexamic acid (TA) is claimed to have whitening effects especially for ultraviolet-induced hyperpigmentation including melasma. The aim of our study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical solution of TA and compare it with combined solution of hydroquinone and dexamethasone as the gold standard treatment of melasma in Iranian women.

Materials And Methods: This was a double-blind split-face trial of 12 weeks which was conducted in Isfahan, Iran.

Relation between usual daily walking time and metabolic syndrome.

Background: There are several studies about the positive relation between physical inactivity or low cardio respiratory fitness with development of metabolic syndrome (MS). In contrast, physical activity had favourable effects on all components of MS but the quantity and the frequency of physical activity necessary to produce this beneficial effect has not been defined as yet. The aim of this survey was to study the association of regular physical activity, measured by patient's estimation of walking time per day, with MS.

CD30+ Large Cell Transformation of Mycosis Fungoides During Pregnancy.

Mycosis fungoides (MF) a cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, is a subgroup of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, characterized by skin infiltration and occasionally systemic involvement. MF coincidence with pregnancy is rare. The effect of pregnancy on MF and the effect of this disease on pregnancy are still unknown.

Vitiligo and autoantibodies of celiac disease.

Background: Vitiligo is an acquired, idiopathic disorder characterized by circumscribed depigmented macules and patches. The exact etiology and pathogenesis of vitiligo is not clear. Many theories have been presented regarding this subject among them aautoimmune theory is the most important one.

Staphylococcus aureus in Acne Pathogenesis: A Case-Control Study.

Background: There is considerable evidence which suggests a possible pathogenetic role for Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) in acne vulgaris.

Aim: The study was to determine S.

Bleomycin tattooing as a promising therapeutic modality in large keloids and hypertrophic scars.

Background: Cryotherapy combined with intralesional triamcinolon injection is the most common traditional therapy for hypertrophic scars and keloids. The literature contains few articles on the use of bleomycin tattoo for treatment of these conditions.

Objective: This study compares the efficacy of bleomycin tattoo with that of cryotherapy combined with intralesional triamcinolon injection for the treatment of keloids and hypertrophic scars.
