A Study of Cutaneous Adverse Drug Reactions at a Tertiary Care Center in Andhra Pradesh, India.

Introduction: Practically all physicians encounter a diverse range of suspected cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADRs) in their daily clinical practice. The skin and mucosa are the most often encountered areas for the early presentation of numerous adverse drug reactions. Cutaneous adverse drug reactions are classified as benign or severe.

The early repigmentation pattern of vitiligo is related to the source of melanocytes and by the choice of therapy: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: Patients with vitiligo present with different repigmentation patterns in the early recovery stage.

Objectives: To analyze the relationships between early repigmentation patterns in vitiliginous patches, their clinical characteristics, and therapeutic choices.

Methods: Patients with vitiligo seen in the Department of Dermatology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from 2010 to 2015, were included, and their clinical records, especially photographs and medical treatments, were reviewed.

Clinical evaluation of Varnya Gana Lepa in Vyanga (melasma).

Background: Vyanga type of Kshudra Roga, characterised by Niruja (painless), Shyava Varna Mandalas (bluish black patches) occurring especially on the face. The clinical features correlate with melasma, which is an acquired chronic hyperpigmentation disorder, usually seen in women of childbearing age. The drugs which constitute the Varnya Gana Lepa bestow the normal Varna (color) by virtue of their qualities and actions.

Enstrophy-based proper orthogonal decomposition for reduced-order modeling of flow past a cylinder.

Here proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) modal decomposition are performed for flow past a circular cylinder at supercritical Reynolds numbers by projecting this onto instability modes. The important task of modeling a cylinder wake by Stuart-Landau (SL) and the Stuart-Landau-Eckhaus (SLE) equation for instability modes is discussed, with the latter shown to be more consistent with multimodal pictures of POD and instability modes. The difficult task of finding the coefficients of the SLE equation is reported by taking a least squares approach for the reduced order model (ROM).
