Article Abstract
(Meth)acrylates are a common cause of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) that can be found in medical (such as pads) and aesthetic (specifically nail cosmetics) products. Prolonged and intimate contact with sanitary pads can predispose individuals to ACD triggered by a variety of allergens. This report presents the case of a young female patient with episodes of nail contact dermatitis followed by a protracted history of intensely symptomatic allergic contact dermatitis affecting the external genital area, precipitated by methacrylates present in menstrual pads.

Objective: This study investigated spaced transcranial direct current stimulation for major depressive disorder, focusing on feasibility.
Methods: In a prospective open-label study, 30 participants with major depressive disorder were enrolled to receive a 50-session transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) treatment over 2 weeks. The feasibility, safety, tolerability, and preliminary therapeutic effects of this tDCS protocol were assessed using the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D-17) and the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) at baseline and 1-week and 4-week follow-ups, as well as with the 6-item HAM-D (HAM-D-6) daily during treatment.
