520 college students from a public university in the southwest were questioned to examine correlations between having a tattoo and the presence of tattoos among their family and friends. Tattoos among both friends and family were positively correlated with respondents' having a tattoo. The magnitude of friends' influence was about double the influence of family.

Successful surgical management of uveitic glaucoma in a sarcoidosis patient with cutaneous manifestations.
BMJ Case Rep
December 2024
Ophthalmology, Western Eye Hospital, Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, London, UK.
Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease with variable ocular involvement. The most common ocular manifestation is uveitis, which can have potentially sight threatening complications such as glaucoma. We present the case of a man in his 30s with sarcoidosis and recurrent anterior uveitis, necessitating surgical intervention to control intraocular pressure and prevent further glaucomatous optic neuropathy progression.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the effectiveness of a new gingival pigmentation index (SEMPI) compared to existing indexes (GPI, MPI, DOPI, MI) for classifying gingival pigmentation in patients aged 12-60 years.
- Researchers assessed the reproducibility of these indexes through evaluations by multiple periodontists under controlled conditions, focusing on patients with melanin pigmentation in the gingiva.
- The results indicated a high level of agreement and strong correlations among the various indexes, suggesting that the new SEMPI index is a valuable tool for classifying gingival pigmentation.
An Invisible Dermal Nanotattoo-Based Smart Wearable Sensor for eDiagnostics of Jaundice.

Nanosensor Bioplatforms Laboratory, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Research Center of Iran, Tehran 14335-186, Iran.
Despite substantial progress in the diagnosis of jaundice/hyperbilirubinemia as the most common disease and cause of hospitalization of newborns, on the eve of Industry/Healthcare 5.0, the development of accurate and reliable wearable diagnostic sensors for noninvasive smart monitoring of bilirubin (BIL) is still in high demand. Aiming to fabricate a smart wearable sensor for early diagnosis of neonatal jaundice and its therapeutic monitoring, we here report a fluorescent dermal nanotattoo that further coupled with an IoT-integrated wearable optoelectronic reader for minimally invasive, continuous, and real-time monitoring of BIL in interstitial fluid.
