Features of fragile people with SARS-CoV-2 infection in isolation in a COVID-19 hotel in Rome, Italy.

Objective: Temporary COVID-19 hotels have been established in Italy to assist the homeless people that test positive for SARS-CoV-2 and require isolation. This observational study aimed to investigate the characteristics of the subjects who were isolated at the Casa tra Noi COVID-19 hotel in Rome between October 2020 and May 2021 and to estimate the duration of SARS-CoV-2 positivity according to their main socio-demographic, behavioural and clinical features.

Subjects And Methods: Socio-demographic data, clinical history, and anamnestic data of guests were collected by the clinicians reviewing the medical documentation and face-to-face interviewing.

Efficacy of injecting hybrid cooperative complexes of hyaluronic acid for the treatment of vulvar lichen sclerosus: A preliminary study.

Background: Lichen sclerosus is a chronic relapsing inflammatory skin disease, which involves most commonly the anogenital region. The gold standard in treatment is ultra-potent topical steroids (clobetasol propionate): it aims at controlling the symptoms, stopping further scarring and distortion, and reducing the risk of cancer.

Objectives: The aim of this preliminary study is to evaluate the efficacy of injecting Hybrid Cooperative Complexes of Hyaluronic Acid (HCC) for the treatment of vulvar lichen sclerosus (VLS).

The efficacy of injecting hybrid cooperative complexes of hyaluronic acid for the treatment of vulvar lichen sclerosus: A preliminary study.

Lichen Sclerosus is a chronic-relapsing inflammatory skin disease usually involving the anogenital region lacking a resolutive therapy. Potent to high-potent topical corticosteroids are considered to be the standard first-line treatment. The objective of this preliminary study is to evaluate the efficacy of injecting Hybrid Cooperative Complexes of Hyaluronic Acid (HCC) in the treatment of Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus (VLS).

Platelet-rich plasma for genital lichen sclerosus: analysis and results of 94 patients. Are there gender-related differences in symptoms and therapeutic response to PRP?

Background: Lichen sclerosus is a chronic relapsing inflammatory dermatosis with a predilection for anogenital skin in 85%-98% of cases and is more prevalent in women (3%) than in men (> 0.07%).

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate gender differences in clinical presentation and therapeutic response to treatment with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), an emerging innovative strategy for LS.

Adipose tissue stromal vascular fraction and adipose tissue stromal vascular fraction plus platelet-rich plasma grafting: New regenerative perspectives in genital lichen sclerosus.

Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic relapsing, inflammatory skin disorder usually involving the anogenital region of both sexes lacking a resolutive therapy. This study compared adipose tissue derived-stromal vascular fraction (AD-SVF) and AD-SVF-enriched platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy in the management of genital LS patients. Additionally, in vitro evaluation of cells and growth factors contained in the injected SVF has been evaluated as possible predictive factors for treatment outcome.

[The management of hypertriglyceridemia and the risk of pancreatitis].

In the face of hypertriglyceridemia, the potential causes must be assessed to choose the best medical therapeutic option. In cases of secondary hypertriglyceridemia, physicians should use treatments targeting the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the lipid disorder. Lifestyle interventions are the cornerstone of an effective treatment, to achieve controlled glycemia, blood pressure and weight loss.

Usefulness of video thermography in the evaluation of platelet-rich plasma effectiveness in vulvar lichen sclerosus: preliminary study.

Background: Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic-relapsing and potentially serious skin disease that has a preference for genital skin. Currently, there is no standardized method for assessing the effects of therapies.

Objective: The objective of this preliminary study is to use video thermography (VTG) in the evaluation of vulvar lichen sclerosus (VLS) before and after platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy.

Italian Guidelines in diagnosis and treatment of alopecia areata.

Alopecia areata (AA) is an organ-specific autoimmune disorder that targets anagen phase hair follicles. The course is unpredictable and current available treatments have variable efficacy. Nowadays, there is relatively little evidence on treatment of AA from well-designed clinical trials.

Dermoscopy and confocal microscopy for different chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) phases characterization: Preliminary study.

Background: Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) affects 65% of patients receiving chemotherapy regimens and is often identified with the massive hair loss stage. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a noninvasive technique used in alopecia assessment for disease characterization and state of activity.

Objective: To describe RCM features of CIA in different timing and identify specific phases of alopecia development.

Scalp infection by Candida Albicans in an immunocompetent patient: a description of a rare case.

Candida is a large genus of yeast, consisting of about 150 species, among which C.albicans is the most prevalent fungal species of the human microbiota. C.

Monitoring chemotherapy-induced alopecia with trichoscopy.

Background: Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) ranks among the psychologically most devastating effects of cancer treatment for oncological patients, with an overall incidence of 65%. Nowadays trichoscopy is largely employed in the diagnosis of alopecia, but no description of CIA trichoscopic pattern is present in literature.

Aims: We want to create an organic description of CIA trichoscopic aspects.

Treatment of facial actinic keratoses with a cream containing octatrienoic acid: a multicenter clinical experience.

Background: Actinic keratosis (AKs) are premalignant skin lesions characterized by high rate of transformation in squamous cell carcinoma if not treated. Preclinical published data on parrodiene-derivative 2,4,6-octatrienoic acid, encourages us to study and to evaluate the effect of a topical product containing it in patients affected by mild to moderate actinic keratosis.

Methods: Seventy subjects with at least 1-3 clinically diagnosed actinic keratosis lesions, non-hyperkeratotic, non-hypertrophic, localized on the face (I-II degree actinic keratosis) were enrolled in the study.

A preliminary study on topical cetirizine in the therapeutic management of androgenetic alopecia.

Background: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a common form of scalp hair loss that affects up to 50% of males between 18 and 40 years old. Several molecules are commonly used for the treatment of AGA, acting on different steps of its pathogenesis (Minoxidil, Finasteride, Serenoa repens) and show some side effects. In literature, on the basis of hypertrichosis observed in patients treated with analogues of prostaglandin PGF2a, it was supposed that prostaglandins would have an important role in the hair growth: PGE and PGF2a play a positive role, while PGD2 a negative one.

Chemotherapy-induced alopecia management: Clinical experience and practical advice.

Background: Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) is probably one of the most shocking aspects for oncological patients and underestimated by physicians. Among hair loss risk factors, there are treatment-related aspects such as drug dose, administration regimen, and exposure to X-rays, but also patient-related characteristics. To the best of our knowledge, no guidelines are available about CIA management.
