Background/Aims: An important pillar of AD management involves moisturizer application following bathing to restore epidermal barrier function (EBF). In this study, we aim to bring additional evidence to the “soak-and-smear” regimen, comparing EBF recovery by various moisturizers following bathing in AD and healthy subjects. Methods: Volar forearms of 10 AD patients and 10 healthy controls were immersed in water for 10 minutes to simulate bathing. Immediately after bathing, ceramide-containing emollient (CER), a humectant (10% glycerin, GLY), an occlusant (white petrolatum, PETR), and aloe vera 5% extract (ALOE) were applied to separate test sites on the forearm. One test site did not receive any moisturizer and served as control. EBF parameters (hydration, TEWL, and pH) were recorded at baseline, and 15, 30, and 60-minutes post-bathing.Results: AD and controls shared similar trends. ALOE had the most significant pH decrease while GLY had the highest pH increase. Hydration significantly increased in all moisturizers compared to control. GLY led to the highest increase, peaking at 15-minutes for both AD and healthy subjects. AD subjects had higher hydration following CER than healthy subjects throughout the entire study. All four moisturizers increased TEWL compared to control, though PETR had the lowest initial TEWL increase. Conclusion: All moisturizers has an immediate effect on improving SC hydration. Their initial effects on TEWL increase recovers toward control levels by 60-minutes. Future studies are needed to examine the effect of repeated moisturizer post-bathing over longer study periods.

Published: July 2018

A 6-year-old otherwise healthy female presented to the ED with a right eyebrow lesion for one month. Previous I&D attempts and empiric antibiotic treatment had failed to improve the lesion. Following dermatology referral, superficial culture resulted with growth of Cryptococcus neoformans after which completion of oral fluconazole treatment resolved the lesion. Though Cryptococcus neoformans infections commonly plague immunocompromised patients, primary cutaneous cryptococcosis in the immunocompetent patient is a rare but documented infection with a paucity of reported pediatric cases, and frontline physicians should be aware of such a diagnosis in the setting of persistent skin lesions without response to more commonly utilized therapies.

Published: July 2018

This paper provides comprehensive review on heave motion of rigid floating structure due to wave impacts. To specify and explain the structure response, this review firstly provides a brief introduction on ocean sea wave theory, floating structure motion interpretation. Then the floating body motion in regular waves was demonstrated using a superposition method of the oscillated motion in still water and the restrained motion inÂ waves. Meanwhile, added mass and damping coefficient, these two frequency-dependent terms are brought into discussion to generate the motion response with given wave amplitude, which is known for response amplitude operator( RAO). Based on the study in regular waves, RAO of floating structure in irregular waves is introduced while no longer in time domain but in frequency domain. The whole review covers the literatures from the early 1980s up to nowadays, based on the review, it is recommended that more experimental work regarding to frequency characteristic and relative response of larger floating body should be carried out to improve the accuracy of this method.

The article deals with modern terminology, methods of studying of the rigidity of blood vessels, their diagnostic value. Taking into account the class and level of evidence, a modern understanding of the diagnostic significance, sensitivity of methods for the study of vessel rigidity has been offered. The role of vascular biomarkers in patients with various diseases is considered. The potential for therapeutic effects on vascular biomarkers has been observed based on the latest consensus documents, meta-analyses. The issue that has not yet been included in the consensus documents — the relationship between vessel rigidity and cognitive impairments — is considered separately. The role of vascular rigidity in the development of the syndrome of small cognitive impairments and the possibility of their therapeutic correction have been demonstrated. In conclusion, the authors state that for today a huge work has been done to study the rigidity of blood vessels, which allowed the creation of general consensus documents. Various scientific researches using non-invasive methods for the study of vascular rigidity, which is of fundamental importance in the selection of pharmacological therapy, seem promising. The practitioner should be informed in the problem of vascular biomarkers in order to evaluate these studies.

OBJECTIVEPatient-reported outcomes (PROs) are often measured up to 2 years after surgery; however, prospective collection of longitudinal outcomes for 5 years postoperatively can be challenging due to lack of patient follow-up. The aim of this study was to determine whether PROs collected at 2-year follow-up accurately predict long-term PROs 5 years after complex spinal fusion (≥ 5 levels).METHODSThis was an ambispective study of 118 adult patients (≥ 18 years old) undergoing ≥ 5-level spinal arthrodesis to the sacrum with iliac fixation from January 2002 to December 2011. Patient demographics and radiographic parameters as well as intraoperative variables were collected. PRO instruments (Scoliosis Research Society [SRS]-22r function, self-image, mental health, pain, and Oswestry Disability Index [ODI]) were completed before surgery then at 2 and 5 years after surgery. Primary outcome investigated in this study was the correlation between SRS-22r domains and ODI collected at 2- and 5-year follow-up.RESULTSOf the 118 patients, 111 patients had baseline PROs, 105 patients had 2-year follow-up data, and 91 patients had 5-year follow-up PRO data with 72% undergoing revision surgery. The average pre- and postoperative major coronal curve Cobb angles for the cohort were 32.1° ± 23.7° and 19.8° ± 19.3°, respectively. There was a strong correlation between 2- and 5-year ODI (r2 = 0.80, p < 0.001) and between 2- and 5-year SRS-22r domains, including function (r2 = 0.79, p < 0.001), self-image (r2 = 0.82, p < 0.001), mental health (r2 = 0.77, p < 0.001), and pain (r2 = 0.79, p < 0.001). Of the PROs, ODI showed the greatest absolute change from baseline to 2- and 5-year follow-up (2-year Δ 17.6 ± 15.9; 5-year Δ 16.5 ± 19.9) followed by SRS-22r self-image (2-year Δ 1.4 ± 0.96; 5-year Δ 1.3 ± 1.0), pain (2-year Δ 0.94 ± 0.97; 5-year Δ 0.80 ± 1.0), function (2-year Δ 0.60 ± 0.62; 5-year Δ 0.49 ± 0.79), and mental health (2-year Δ 0.49 ± 0.77; 5-year Δ 0.38 ± 0.84).CONCLUSIONSPatient-reported outcomes collected at 2-year follow-up may accurately predict long-term PROs (5-year follow-up).
