AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Dermatologic illnesses have historically been a significant source of morbidity and resource utilization in fielded military forces. The impact of cutaneous diseases during U.S. military conflicts is reviewed, and recent data from Craig Joint Theater Hospital at Bagram Air Field in Afghanistan are presented, confirming previous experience. A discussion of the difficulties of diagnosing and treating dermatologic conditions for deployed primary care providers is provided, including recommendations to improve patient care and military unit readiness.

Vitiligo is a common autoimmune disease that progressively destroys melanocytes in the skin, resulting in the appearance of patchy depigmentation. The aim of this review is to increase awareness towards vitiligo by providing insight on the pathogenesis and management options. Vitiligo is an acquired pigmentary skin disease, which can appear with one or a few macules.

Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic sparked an interest in skincare with the closure of spas and salons. Skincare, one of TikTok's most popular dermatology-related hashtags, received hundreds of millions of views. The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) shared facial cleansing recommendations; however, how many people follow them is unclear.

We report an 18-year-old male who presented with a two-month history of a lesion over his right forearm with a one-week history of sudden increase in size associated with pain. General and systemic examinations were normal. Dermatological examination revealed a single tender, well-defined, pearly white to erythematous, dome-shaped nodule of approximately 6mm x 5mm x 5mm with central umbilication and surrounding erythema.

Background: 7-Hydroxymethotrexate (7-OHMTX) is the main metabolite in plasma following high-dose MTX (HD-MTX), which may result in activity and toxicity of the MTX. Moreover, 7-OHMTX could produce crystalline-like deposits within the renal tubules under acidic conditions or induce renal inflammation, oxidative stress, and cell apoptosis through various signaling pathways, ultimately leading to kidney damage. The objectives of this study were thus to explore the exposure-safety relationship of two compounds and search the most reliable marker for predicting HDMTX nephrotoxicity.

Myelin loss induces neural dysfunction and contributes to the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases, injury conditions, and aging. Because remyelination is often incomplete, better understanding endogenous remyelination and developing remyelination therapies that restore neural function are clinical imperatives. Here, we use in vivo two-photon microscopy and electrophysiology to study the dynamics of endogenous and therapeutic-induced cortical remyelination and functional recovery after cuprizone-mediated demyelination in mice.
