Background And Aims: It is generally thought that bleeding from a hemangioma is difficult to stop. With development of the long pulse dye laser (LPDL), it has become possible to treat hemangioma with a large blood vessel diameter. Thus, it is effective in treating infantile hemangioma and pyogenic granuloma.
Materials And Methods: Five patients who visited our hospital from July 2015 to July 2017 due to hemorrhagic hemangioma were treated using a flash lamp excitation pulse dye laser with parameters of 7 mm spot size, 3 msec pulse width, fluence 12-14J/cm, DCD 30 msec, and delay 30 msec.
Results: The bleeding not only stopped, but the raised lesion was flattened in all cases.
Conclusions: LPDL is effective for both infantile hemangioma and pyogenic granuloma. It not only stops bleeding, but also treats the vascular lesions.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive treatment that elicits tumor apoptosis using laser light exclusively applied to the tumor site. IR-783, a heptamethine cyanine (HMC) dye, impedes the proliferation of breast cancer cells, even without light. Although studies have investigated the efficacy of IR-783 in cell and animal studies, its efficacy in clinical settings remains unknown.

Papulopustular rosacea is an inflammatory subtype of rosacea that can significantly impair patients' quality of life. Available treatment options range from anti-inflammatory topical and oral medications to laser and light therapies. Photodynamic therapy with aminolevulinic acid (ALA-PDT) has emerged as a more recent treatment option for papulopustular rosacea.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is known for its aggressive nature, typically presenting as high-grade tumors that grow and spread quickly in all breast cancer types. Several studies have reported a strong correlation between cancer and microbial infections due to a compromised immune system. The most frequent infection associated with surface malignancies, including breast cancer, is Candidiasis, which is majorly caused by .

In this study, we employed platinum-assisted surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) (Pt-SALDI-MSI) to detect and visualize the spatial distribution of antioxidant additives and organic dyes in polystyrene films undergoing photodegradation. In traditional matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS), matrix-derived ion peaks often obscure signals from low-molecular-weight analytes. Pt-SALDI-MSI, which utilizes inorganic nanoparticles instead of an organic matrix, enables the interference-free analysis of low-molecular-weight compounds, thereby addressing the limitation of traditional MALDI-MS.

In the present work, a diazonium salt is prepared by a diazonium reaction of sulfamerazine in the presence of aqueous hydrochloric acid and sodium nitrate. Structural confirmation of azo compounds synthesize is achieved by mass spectrometry, infrared spectroscopy, and H, C nuclear magnetic resonance. The sample geometry is derived using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and DT-DFT applied to the basis set B3LYPL6-311 + G(d,p).
