Sexual and gender minority (SGM) patients face health issues relevant to dermatologists, such as allergic contact dermatitis (ACD); however, there is a lack of information surrounding common allergens causing ACD that disproportionally affect SGM patients. Covidence, Embase, MEDLINE, PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar were searched to identify relevant articles studying ACD in the SGM population. Common allergens associated with ACD in SGM patients include nitrates, fragrance mix, methylisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone-methylchloroisothiazolinone, topical antibiotics, and allergens seen in chest binders.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate the occurrence of refeeding syndrome in healthy children under 3 years old admitted for failure to thrive (FTT).
  • Out of 179 eligible patients, none showed laboratory signs of refeeding syndrome, with 81% having initial lab tests and 39% undergoing follow-up tests after admission.
  • The findings suggest that routine lab monitoring for electrolyte issues in these patients may not be necessary, indicating a need for more detailed research to improve clinical practices and reduce unnecessary testing.

Morphology, developmental stages and quality parameters of in vitro-produced equine embryos.

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is used to produce equine embryos invitro. The speed of embryo development invitro is roughly equivalent to what has been described for embryos produced invivo. Morphological evaluations of ICSI-produced embryos are complicated by the presence of debris and the dark nature of equine embryo cytoplasm.

Regulation of endothelial cell permeability by platelet-derived extracellular vesicles.

J Trauma Acute Care Surg

June 2019

From the Department of Laboratory Medicine (B.M., A.T., D.P., L.V., M.L., S.P.), University of California; Blood Systems Research Institute (P.P.T., G.B.), San Francisco, California; Department of Surgery (EL., C.E.W.), University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston; Department of Pediatric Surgery (A.K.S., J.B.H.), McGovern Medical School, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Houston, Texas; Department of Surgery (R.C., L.Z.K., A.T.F.), University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California; Department of Surgery (M.A.S.), Oregon Health Science and University, Portland, Oregon.

Background: Platelet (Plt)-derived extracellular vesicles (Plt-EVs) have hemostatic properties similar to Plts. In addition to hemostasis, Plts also function to stabilize the vasculature and maintain endothelial cell (EC) barrier integrity. We hypothesized that Plt-EVs would inhibit vascular EC permeability, similar to fresh Plts.
