A study into the best sites to biopsy for a diagnosis of pemphigus vulgaris or mucous membrane pemphigoid
Summary Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) are rare and potentially serious conditions that cause painful blisters or erosions to develop in the mouth, nose, throat, oesophagus, genitalia and skin. One of the main complications unique to MMP is that it may scar affected sites, particularly the eyes. Both diseases generally occur in older adults. To confirm the diagnosis of PV and MMP, a biopsy has traditionally been taken from near the affected area (perilesional). Where...

样肉芽肿和 Sézary 综合征患者生活质量研究
Summary 蕈样肉芽肿 (MF) 是最常见的皮肤淋巴瘤类型,属于皮肤 T 细胞淋巴瘤 (CTCL) 一类疾病。MF 可表现为扁平/凸起、光滑/鳞状红色病变,称为斑片和斑块,因此难以与湿疹或银屑病相鉴别。可能会出现被称为肿瘤的凸起“肿块”,并且疾病可能变得更加严重。 Sézary 综合征 (SS) 是 CTCL 的一种白血病形式,在全身大多数部位出现广泛的红色瘙痒性皮疹,血液中存在癌细胞,淋巴结肿大。 因为瘙痒和疼痛等症状、因外观缺陷继发的自尊心受挫,MF/SS 可降低患者的生活质量 (QoL),并可损害人际关系。在本文中,我们使用称为 Skindex‐29 的一项大型国际研究 PROCLIPI 调查了 MF/SS 患者的 QoL,该问卷请患者对可能影响其生活享受的皮肤相关问题发表评论。 我们发现 MF/SS 中生活质量较差的很多重要决定因素包括:女性、诊断为 SS 的患者和更广泛的疾病患者。与 QoL 下降更多相关的疾病特征包括脱发(掉头发)和融合性红斑(红斑和斑块融合形成更大的受累皮肤区域)。综合所有这些因素,我们发现女性患者、脱发和融合性红斑是最重要的。 考虑到女性...

大疱性表皮松解症诊断的新指南
Summary 大疱性表皮松解症 (EB) 是一类罕见的遗传性疾病,其皮肤比平常更脆弱,外界力量(如轻伤或擦伤)会导致水泡或溃疡,愈合可能缓慢,并经常留下疤痕。EB 包含四种主要类型,包括 30 多种亚型。诊断基于临床表现,即其外观、遗传方式、皮肤分裂程度和遗传缺陷。 来自世界各国的一组专家代表慈善机构 DEBRA International 制定了这些指南,以提供有关 EB 的实验室诊断的信息。 在公共数据库中查找出版物(即已在期刊上发表的有关 EB 的科学研究)。对六十四篇论文进行了评估,并对其质量进行了评价。 基于此,作者提出以下建议:如果怀疑患有 EB,在知情同意后,始终需要进行实验室诊断。如果可获得且可负担得起,则应进行基因 (DNA) 检测和皮肤样本分析(通过称为免疫荧光的过程),以进行全面诊断。但是,这并不总是可能的。确定优先级可以缩短诊断时间并节省资源,但需要专业知识。例如,在新生儿中,分析皮肤样本应该是诊断第一步,因为它可以在几天内得出结果。同时,应始终进行基因检测。如果 EB 类型可以在临床上被识别或者是轻度疾病,则建议使用称为下一代测序的方法进行基因检测,因为预期无法通过皮肤分析获得有价值的信息。如果在一个受影响的人中发现了遗传缺陷,父母和其他家庭成员都可以接受检查以进行确认和遗传咨询。如果未检测到遗传缺陷,则必须运用研究方法或重新考虑诊断。...

一项关于基因突变及其与不同鱼鳞病类型相关性的研究
Summary 鱼鳞病是一种皮肤非常厚且呈鳞片状的疾病。它通常是由遗传错误(突变)引起的。当健康携带者的父母都将突变基因传给孩子时,就会发生“常染色体隐性”鱼鳞病,因此孩子继承了双倍突变量,无法生成正常皮肤。 科学家已经发现了 13 种引起鱼鳞病的基因突变。这项研究着眼于突变类型(基因型)是否可告诉我们有关鱼鳞病类型(表型)的任何信息。 医生检查了从 13 家英国医院招募的 146 例鱼鳞病患者,平均年龄 17 岁,来自 124 个家庭。他们从血液或唾液中提取 DNA。 他们发现 83% 的患者存在突变;其他 17% 的患者可能有目前技术无法检测到的突变或不同基因的突变。10 个不同的鱼鳞病基因存在突变,大多数存在于 TGM1 基因。 在某些程度上,不同基因型对应不同表型。TGM1 鱼鳞病通常有较大的棕色鳞屑,而 ALOX12B 突变导致细白色鳞屑。ABCA12 突变会导致更重度的鱼鳞病,包括非常严重的丑角型,伴有手指变形;相比之下,轻度鱼鳞病患者通常具有 TGM1 或 ALOX12B 突变。 携带 ALOX12B 突变的婴儿中几乎有一半的婴儿的耳朵顶部折叠。一些 TGM1...

A study of gene mutations and how they relate to the different types of ichthyosis
Summary Ichthyosis is a disorder in which the skin is very thick and scaly. It is usually caused by a genetic mistake (mutation). “Autosomal recessive” ichthyosis occurs when parents who are healthy carriers both pass on a mutant gene to their child, so the child inherits a double dose of the mutation and cannot make normal skin. Scientists have already discovered mutations in 13 genes that cause ichthyosis. This study looks at whether the type of mutation (genotype) tells us anything about the...

一项在最佳部位进行活检以确诊寻常天疱疮或黏膜类天疱疮的研究
Summary 寻常天疱疮 (PV) 和黏膜类天疱疮 (MMP) 是罕见且可能严重的疾病,可导致口腔、鼻、咽喉、食管、生殖器和皮肤出现疼痛性水疱或糜烂。MMP 独特的主要并发症之一是可能使受累部位留下疤痕,尤其是眼睛。这两种疾病通常发生在老年人中。 为确认 PV 和 MMP 的诊断,通常在受累部位附近(病灶周围)进行活检。如果仅累及黏膜表面,口腔是最易触及的部位,但是这可能很困难,因为口腔黏膜脆弱。 该研究的目的是比较看起来正常健康的脸颊内部黏膜组织(颊黏膜)活检与病灶周围活检的结果。英国的作者分析了 251 例 MMP 和 77 例 PV 患者的活检位置和结果。 他们已经证明,正常颊黏膜组织活检与病灶周围活检在诊断口腔 PV 方面一样好。对于累及多个口腔表面的 MMP 患者,在诊断方面,正常颊黏膜活检几乎与病灶周围取样一样。对于仅累及牙龈的 MMP 患者,牙龈的病灶活检或正常颊黏膜活检并不能总是可靠地确认诊断。重要的是,对于这群患者,作者表明,从颊黏膜和牙龈黏膜之间连接处进行的活检在所有病例中均呈阳性结果。 从正常颊黏膜组织进行穿刺活检是一种诊断所有口腔 PV 患者和所有...

  1. I'm 55-year-old from Paris, I was diagnosed with second-stage liver cancer following a scheduled examination to monitor liver cirrhosis. I had lost a lot of weight. A CT scan revealed three tumors; one in the center of my liver in damaged tissue and two in healthy portions of my liver. No chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment was prescribed due to my age, the number of liver tumors. One month following my diagnosis I began taking 12 (350 point) Salvestrol supplements per day, commensurate with my body weight. This comprised six Salvestrol Shield (350 point) capsules and six Salvestrol Gold (350 point) capsules, spread through the day by taking two of each capsule after each main meal. This level of Salvestrol supplementation (4,000 points per day) was maintained for four months. In addition, I began a program of breathing exercises, chi exercises, meditation, stretching and stress avoidance. Due to the variety of conditions that I suffered from, I received ongoing medical examinations. Eleven months after commencing Salvestrol supplementation But all invalid so I keep searching for a herbal cure online that how I came across a testimony appreciating Dr Itua on how he cured her HIV/Herpes, I contacted him through email he listed above, Dr Itua sent me his herbal medicine for cancer to drink for two weeks to cure I paid him for the delivering then I received my herbal medicine and drank it for two weeks and I was cured until now I'm all clear of cancer, I will advise you to contact Dr Itua Herbal Center On Email...drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com.
