A 47-year-old woman presented with a history of yellow plaques on her eyelids. These lesions had been diagnosed clinically as xanthelasma and treated five times with topical applications of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) 33 percent. Despite flattening of the original lesions, the patient noticed extension of the lesions on the site of treatment following each session. Skin biopsy showed characteristic findings of xanthelasma. It appears that, in rare instances, xanthelasma palpebrarum may progress following TCA application by a Koebner-like phenomenon.

Introduction: Frozen pork can reduce the quality of the meat and alter the digestibility and bioavailability of meat proteins in the human body. In this study, we investigated the changes in the basic composition during frozen storage and their effects on the structural properties of digestion products after protein digestion.

Methods: The impacts of frozen storage at different temperatures (-8, -18, -25, and -40°C) and for different times (1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months) on the basic components and digestive characteristics of pork were evaluated.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections rank as the most prevalent sexually transmitted infections globally. The Brazilian Ministry of Health recommends the topical use of 70%-90% trichloroacetic acid (TAA) for treating condyloma acuminata, yet this method suffers from a high recurrence rate of 36% and requires roughly six applications. Topical photodynamic therapy (PDT) has shown effectiveness in targeting subclinical lesions, but it also necessitates multiple sessions for complete lesion clearance.

In this study, a rapid and accurate analytical method was developed for the simultaneous determination of 26 plant toxins and 11 mushroom toxins in toxic plants, toxic mushrooms, and their cooked products using LC-MS/MS. This method enables highly selective detection of all 37 analytes, including those with high polarity and low molecular weight, within 10 min using Scherzo SS-C18 column. The analytes were extracted from the samples using methanol and trichloroacetic acid, and purified using Captiva EMR-Lipid.

This paper aims to test several modeling approaches for predicting toxicity of binary mixtures with potential synergy and antagonism. The approach based on the construction of isoboles was first tested and criticized. In contrast to conventional approaches, and in order to be mathematically consistent with the additivity assumptions, non-linear isoboles have been constructed.
