[Cutaneous pseudolymphoma after hirudotherapy : Case report and review].

The term cutaneous pseudolymphoma (C-PSL) is defined in the literature as a benign, reactive lymphoproliferation that clinically and/or histopathologically imitates cutaneous lymphoma. The exact etiopathogenesis has not been fully elucidated to date. A distinction is made between primary, idiopathic PSL without an identifiable cause and secondary PSL with a known stimulus.

Furuncular Myiasis of the Lower Leg.

A 35-year-old Caucasian woman, otherwise healthy, presented with a four weeks history of painful, inflammatory nodules, each with a central opening on her right lower leg (Figure 1). Intermittently, a marked serosanguinous secretion was noted. The remaining skin and mucosa were not affected.

Man against machine: diagnostic performance of a deep learning convolutional neural network for dermoscopic melanoma recognition in comparison to 58 dermatologists.

Background: Deep learning convolutional neural networks (CNN) may facilitate melanoma detection, but data comparing a CNN's diagnostic performance to larger groups of dermatologists are lacking.

Methods: Google's Inception v4 CNN architecture was trained and validated using dermoscopic images and corresponding diagnoses. In a comparative cross-sectional reader study a 100-image test-set was used (level-I: dermoscopy only; level-II: dermoscopy plus clinical information and images).

Increased HCN channel driven inward rectification in benign cramp fasciculation syndrome.

Muscle cramps are a common complaint associated with sudden painful involuntary contractions of a muscle. The mechanisms responsible for muscle cramps are still not clear. Axonal excitability and multi-unit electromyography studies were performed in 20 patients suffering from benign cramp fasciculation syndrome, not currently on medication.

Formulation and feedback: an illustration of two methods for improving access to effective therapies.

It is now recognised that therapists require career-long training in order to maintain and improve their expertise. However, training will fail to improve services to clients unless the work environment supports staff in its use. Although this "training transfer" problem is widely acknowledged, to the authors' knowledge the way that the work environment influences clients' access to effective therapies has not been subjected to a detailed and systematic formulation.
