ABSTRACT
Rosacea is a chronic recurrent inflammatory skin disease that mainly occurs on the face. A large number of studies have confirmed that rosacea is related to a variety of systemic diseases, including neuropsychiatric diseases such as anxiety, depression, migraine, Alzheimer′s disease and Parkinson′s disease. This review summarizes research progress in the correlation between rosacea and neuropsychiatric diseases, as well as the underlying mechanisms.
ABSTRACT
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disease. In addition to subjective evaluation, some objective quantifiable indices are needed for the diagnosis and treatment of rosacea. Some skin imaging and noninvasive measurement tools have been applied to clinical practice, and can provide quantitative or semi-quantitative indices to assist the diagnosis and treatment of rosacea. This review summarizes relevant research progress to provide evidence for clinical standardized application.
ABSTRACT
Localized neurovascular dysregulation is an important factor for the occurrence of rosacea, and it has been confirmed that neurogenic inflammation is a key step in neurovascular dysregulation. Intradermal injection of botulinum toxin can relieve facial flushing and burning sensations, which may be attributed to the inhibition of neuropeptide release from nerve endings and degranulation of mast cells. This review summarizes the research progress in neurogenic inflammation in the pathogenesis of rosacea and botulinum toxin in the treatment of rosacea, aiming to provide a basis for nerve-related basic research and clinical treatment of rosacea.
ABSTRACT
Photobiomodulation, also known as photochemical modulation, refers to the use of low-power light from various sources to induce photophysical and photochemical modulation without thermal injury in the body. Photobiomodulation is related to the wavelength and energy of light. Target chromophores for light of different wavelengths include cytochrome C oxidase, opsin, porphyrin, etc., and the parameters such as power density, spot size, and energy density determine the energy of light. At present, many in vivo and in vitro studies have confirmed the application potential of photobiomodulation in the treatment of various skin diseases.
ABSTRACT
From the status quo of medical and health services in rural areas,there exist the following problems:the insufficient number of clinicians,low quality of clinicians,the imbalance of the professional ranks and titles,and aging.Based on investigation and analysis of the rural community health technicians of Huzhou City,Zhejiang Province,the author put forward the new countermeasures of orientation training clinicians in rural communities according to the rural communities residents new demand for medical and health services.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To study the disinfectant resistance of multi-drug resistant Escherichia coli strains isolated clinically,and to find out the efficacy of disinfectants commonly used in killing multi-drug resistant E.coli strains.METHODS Minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) and suspension quantitative germicidal test were used.Compared with standard strains,strains of multi-drug resistant E.coli isolated clinically were determined the resistance to four kinds of disinfectants including benzalkonium bromide etc.RESULTS A higher MIC of benzalkonium bromide compared with standard strains was observed in 61.9% of all 21 multi-drug resistant E.coli strains,and as for povidone iodine and NaClO,the ratio was 71.4% and 14.3%,respectively.All multi-drug resistant E.coli strains had the same MICs of peroxyacetic acid with standard strains.The above-mentioned 4 disinfectants commonly used at the routine concentrations killed 100% of the resistant strains of E.coli within 5 minutes.CONCLUSIONS The resistance to benzalkonium bromide and povidone iodine of multi-drug resistant E.coli isolated clinically is higher than standard strains;and 4 kinds of disinfectants commonly used are effective for multi-drug resistant E.coli strains isolated clinically.
