Camouflage is a system of techniques using cosmetics to conceal, diminish and disguise visible disfigurements of pigment or texture of skin mainly over visible areas. A wide variety of options are available which can be used as camouflage cosmetics. Over the years many authors have published studies highlighting the importance of camouflage in different dermatological disorders like pigmentary, vascular, scars, acne vulgaris and many more. In this review we present 15 such studies assessing QOL in patients of dermatological diseases who were given camouflage therapy. The evidence presented here gives us an insight into the positive effects of camouflage/cover up make up when offered to patients with different dermatological conditions.

Elevated MRPS23 expression facilitates aggressive phenotypes in breast cancer cells.

Cell Mol Biol (Noisy-le-grand)

Mitochondrial ribosomal protein S23 (MRPS23), encoded by a nuclear gene, is a well-known driver of proliferation in cancer. It participates in mitochondrial protein translation, and its expression association has been explored in many types of cancer. However, MRPS23 expression associations are rarely reported in breast cancer (BC).

Article Synopsis
  • Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive form of cancer that often spreads to distant sites in the body, and understanding how it metastasizes is crucial for treatment.
  • Exosomes, which are small extracellular vesicles that carry RNA molecules, play a significant role in TNBC metastasis and present new opportunities for diagnosing and treating the disease via liquid biopsy.
  • Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a subtype of noncoding RNAs found in exosomes, can influence gene expression and are abundant in EVs; they may enhance communication between cancer cells, thereby influencing TNBC progression and offering potential biomarkers for prognosis and monitoring.

Objective: In recent years, many studies have investigated the triggers, perpetuating factors, and outcomes of Fear of Cancer Recurrence (FCR), highlighting its complexity with multiple dimensions that encompass both antecedents and consequences. In this sense, the cognitive approach to FCR has explored variables such as metacognition, maladaptive coping strategies, and intolerance of uncertainty (IU). On the other hand, the findings of a restricted number of studies investigating the relationship between FCR and stated variables appear to be inconsistent.

Hematological toxicity is a predominant concern encountered during cancer treatment. Regular blood tests and follow-up are crucial for cancer patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the hematological toxicities seen by breast cancer patients who were administered paclitaxel during treatment cycles.
