Recurrent Fluconazole-Induced Fixed Drug Eruption of the Digit with Nail Matrix Involvement: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Introduction: Fixed drug eruptions (FDEs) are cutaneous hypersensitivity reactions due to an offending drug and are rarely associated with nail involvement. Moreover, FDEs associated with fluconazole use are sparsely reported in literature.

Case Presentation: We report a case of a recurrent FDE with involvement of one finger and corresponding Beau's lines due to fluconazole use.

A Cost-Based Analysis of Anti-aging Products Across Four Major United States Retailers.

Background In the field of aesthetic dermatology, there is currently very little data on affordability and cost analysis regarding cosmeceuticals as more demand from patients showing interest in cosmeceutical products to reduce and prevent aging continues to grow. Photoaging, a form of extrinsic aging from sun exposure, can be ameliorated by applying sunscreen and retinol products. Topical ascorbic acid and niacinamide have been shown to target the oxidative stress process that contributes to photoaging.

Analysis of fibroblast pen usage amongst TikTok social media users.

Social media networks serve as convenient platforms for the dissemination of information, including that which pertains to healthcare. However, social media networks may also disseminate incorrect information, and may even propagate potentially harmful skincare trends. Since its inception in 2016, TikTok, a social media platform wherein users can create and share videos, has served as a tool for the propagation of multiple, potentially dangerous cosmetic trends, most recently the usage of fibroblast pens.

Basal cell carcinoma: An updated review of pathogenesis and treatment options.

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) remains the most common malignancy worldwide. BCC pathogenesis is a result of the interplay between one's environment, genetics, and phenotypic factors. BCC has a low mortality but given its increasing incidence and potential to cause local destruction thus resulting in significant morbidity, it is vital for dermatologists to remain up to date with recent updates in this malignancy's pathogenesis and treatment.

Merkel cell carcinoma: An updated review of pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment options.

Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare neuroendocrine carcinoma that typically appears in sun-exposed areas of the elderly. It has a poor prognosis and with its incidence projected to increase, it is vital for dermatologists to remain up to date with recent updates in this malignancy's pathogenesis and treatment. In the past few decades Merkel cell carcinoma's pathogenesis, more specifically its relation to the Merkel cell polyomavirus, has sparked further interest in the study of this carcinoma.

The Functional Network Processing Acute Electrical Itch Stimuli in Humans.

The posterior insula (pIns) is a major brain region that receives itch-related signals from the periphery and transfers these signals to broad areas in the brain. Previous brain imaging studies have successfully identified brain regions that respond to itch stimuli. However, it is still unknown which brain regions receive and process itch-related signals from the pIns.
