Authors: Janković Slavenka , Vukićević Jelica , Djordjević Sanja , Janković Janko , Marinković Jelena , Erić Miloš 
Published: October 2018

Background: The Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) evaluates the impact of skin diseases on the patient's quality of life. Objective: The purpose of the study was to translate and to validate the CDLQI into Serbian. Methods: The CDLQI was translated into Serbian following international recommendations for translation and cultural adaptation. The validation study was carried out on a large cohort of secondary schoolchildren who self-reported acne. Results: Translating the CDLQI consisted of forward translation, reconciliation, back translation, back-translation review, and cognitive debriefing. The good internal consistency of the scale was demonstrated with a Cronbach alpha coefficient of 0.87. A Spearman correlation coefficient of 0.66 between the CDLQI and the Cardiff Acne Disability Index (CADI) was deemed satisfactory to demonstrate concurrent validity. Conclusion: The translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and psychometric qualities of the CDLQI were satisfactory, enabling its application in clinical practice and future studies.

Authors: Zur Rebecca L. , Shapero Jonathan , Shapero Harvey 
Published: October 2018

Background: Pityriasis rotunda is a rare cutaneous disorder characterized by scaly, circular, well-demarcated, hypo- or hyperpigmented, fine plaques over the trunk and extremities. Objective: We present a case of pityriasis rotunda in a 44-year-old African-Canadian woman who presented to a community dermatology practice in Toronto. Results: Pityriasis rotunda has been well described in Japan, Italy, and South Africa. It is extremely rare in North America, with nine reported cases to date, the majority of which were diagnosed in the United States. Conclusion: Pityriasis rotunda is a rare cutaneous disorder associated with systemic disease. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second report of pityriasis rotunda diagnosed in Canada.

Published: October 2018

Background: Malignancies that arise from scars are referred to as Marjolin ulcers. The association between chronic ulcers and squamous cell carcinomas is well established. There are many case reports in the literature regarding Marjolin ulcer; however, randomized controlled clinical series that describe a thorough evaluation of these patients are rarely encountered. Objective: We present our clinic's 15 years of experience with 34 Marjolin ulcer patients and their treatment modalities. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 302 squamous cell carcinoma patients who were treated in the plastic surgery department between 1997 and 2011 was performed. Thirty-four (10.3%) histopathologically confirmed Marjolin ulcer patients were further analyzed. Results: Although burn scars represented 77% of the patients in the present study, unstable scars that formed following traffic accidents and fistula tracts are also among the commonly encountered etiologies. Based on our observations, squamous cell carcinoma, in addition to malignant melanoma and verrucous carcinoma, is frequently observed in cases of Marjolin ulcers. Conclusion: If the goal is to eradicate this clinical entity, all of the chronic ulcers that fail to heal require biopsies at regular intervals. Large excisional margins, lymphadenectomies in cases of palpable lymph nodes, and a well-defined oncology protocol are all essential in treating Marjolin ulcer.
Congenital Telangiectatic Atrophic Patch on a Healthy Child
Authors: Garcia-Romero Maria Teresa , Ching Joyce C.Y. , Ho Nhung 
Published: October 2018

Background: Rapidly involuting congenital hemangiomas (RICHs) are rare vascular tumors that have a proliferative phase in utero, present fully grown at birth, and have a fast involution phase after birth. Even rarer cases have completed involution in utero and present at birth as an atrophic plaque with redundant skin. Case Report: We present one case of a RICH that underwent involution in utero and revise the diagnostic and management implications.
Sarcoidosis Can Present with Necrotizing Granulomas Histologically: Two Cases of Ulcerated Sarcoidosis and Review of the Literature
Authors: Noiles Kristin , Beleznay Katie , Crawford Richard I. , Au Sheila 
Published: October 2018

Background: Sarcoidosis is a systemic inflammatory disorder with cutaneous involvement present in 25% of cases. The presence of naked granulomas histologically is the hallmark of sarcoidosis. The presence of necrotizing granulomas is highly suggestive of other granulomatous conditions and leads the clinician to pursue other diagnoses, such as infectious causes. Objectives: We describe two cases of sarcoidosis in which necrotizing granulomas were present on biopsy. Both patients had ulcerated cutaneous lesions of sarcoidosis. In one case, the presence of these atypical histologic features led to a delay in diagnosis of almost 10 years. We review the various histopathologic findings associated with cutaneous sarcoidosis and discuss a potential connection between ulcerated sarcoidosis and atypical histologic findings. Conclusion: When atypical histopathologic features are present, the differential diagnosis of sarcoidosis should not be excluded.
Analysis of the Prevalence of Allergic Contact Dermatitis to Sunscreen: A Cohort Study
Authors: Beleznay Katie , de Gannes Gillian , Kalia Sunil 
Published: October 2018

Background: As the use of sunscreens becomes more prevalent, reports of adverse effects to sunscreens have increased. Objective: To analyze a patch test database for the prevalence of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) to sunscreen. Methods: The database was searched for positive patch test reactions to benzophenone-3. Charts were also reviewed for those who were further tested to the sunscreen series. Results: Twenty-three of the 1,527 patients seen were tested to the sunscreen series. Of these, only 4 patients had a positive reaction to a sunscreen chemical or to the product they were using. In addition, 8 of the 1,527 patients who had no specific history of sunscreen allergy reacted to benzophenone-3. Conclusion: ACD to sunscreen was found to be very uncommon (0.8%). Other final diagnoses included ACD to excipients such as fragrances or preservatives and suspected photosensitive disorders.
Erythema Annulare Centrifugum due to Pegylated Interferon-α-2a plus Ribavirin Combination Therapy in a Patient with Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection
Authors: Gönül Müzeyyen , Çakmak Seray Külcü , Özcan Nimet , Oǧuz Işil Deniz , Özhamam Esra 
Published: October 2018

Background: Pegylated interferon-α combined with ribavirin is the current standard treatment for chronic hepatitis C virus infection. During interferon and ribavirin therapy, both local and generalized mucocutaneous adverse reactions have been reported. Erythema annulare centrifugum induced by this therapy regimen has not been reported previously. Case Report: A 29-year-old woman was referred to our clinic for a 1-week history of slightly pruritic annular erythematous eruptions on the lower extremities and hands. The eruptions had first occured on the hands 3 to 4 days after pegylated interferon-α-2a plus ribavirin combination therapy for hepatitis C virus infection. Histopathologic examination supported the diagnosis of erythema annulare centrifugum. The lesions completely regressed within 2 weeks after the cessation of treatment but recurred on similar localizations within 24 hours with the same therapy. It was thought that erythema annulare centrifugum was induced by pegylated interferon-α-2a plus ribavirin combination therapy. Conclusion: Erythema annulare centrifugum is considered an inflammatory skin disease with unknown etiology. It is thought to represent a hypersensitivity reaction to some triggering factors, including infections, immunologic disorders, malign neoplasms, foods, pregnancy, and drugs. We report the first case of erythema annulare centrifigum induced by pegylated interferon-α-2a plus ribavirin combination therapy.

Authors: Bougrine Amina , Villeneuve-Tang Catherine , Bouffard Danielle , Rouleau Danielle , Chartier Suzanne 
Published: October 2018

Background: Deep dermatophytosis of genital skin is a rare clinical manifestation of infection by a common group of pathogens. Objective: We emphasize the importance of clinical suspicion and the use of accurate diagnostic methods in the evaluation of deep dermatophytosis. Methods: We report a single case of tinea pubis, kerion type, caused by Trichophyton mentagrophytes in an immunocompetent host. Results: A 54-year-old female presented with a suppurative infection of the vulva and pubis that was unresponsive to empirical antibiotic therapy. T. mentagrophytes was isolated. Oral itraconazole was initiated on the basis of clinical suspicion and continued for a total of 6 weeks. Conclusion: Accurate diagnosis and treatment of deep dermatophytosis of genital skin rests upon proper identification of the pathogen. Prompt initiation of treatment with an oral antifungal agent, such as itraconazole, should be undertaken in order to avoid irreversible scarring alopecia.
Schelling y la metafísca de la voluntad
Authors: Pérez-Borbujo Álvarez Fernando 
Published: October 2018

ResumenEn el presente artículo haremos un breve recorrido por la historia de la metafísica del siglo XIX, partiendo del giro que se produce en la concepción del ser en el pensamiento de Schelling, más concretamente, en su ensayo sobre la libertad (1809). Schelling aparece como el fundador de la nueva metafísica, una metafísica que entiende el ser como voluntad, concepción que subyace al pensamiento de Schopenhauer y Nietzsche. Redescubrir la filosofía de Schelling como la fuente inspiradora de cierto pensamiento filosófico más allá de la figura imponente de Hegel nos permitirá enriquecer nuestra visión de la historia del pensamiento filosófico del XIX.Palabras claveIdealismo alemán, Historia de la Filosofía, Metafísica, Voluntad, siglo XIXAbstractIn the present article we’ll go on a very short walk through the history of metaphysics during 19th century, setting off at the «turn» in the concept of being that took place in Schelling’s thought, more concretely in his essays on liberty (1809). Schelling appears to us as the founder of a new metaphysics, one in which being is understood as will, concept which underlies Schopenhauer’s and Nietzsche’s thought. Rediscovering Schelling’s philosophy as the source of inspiration for these thinkers, beyond the impressive figure of Hegel, will allow us to enrich our vision of history of philosophical thought during 19th century.Key wordsGerman Idealism, History of Philosophy, Metaphysics, Will, 19th century
Heidegger: de la tarea hermenéutica como «destrucción» (1922) a la «selección racial» como «metafísicamente necesaria» (1941), pasando por su adhesión al nacionalsocialismo (1933-1945). La experiencia básica de Ser y Tiempo.

Published: October 2018

RESUMENEste trabajo tiene como objetivo principal demostrar que la relación de Heidegger con el nazismo no es externa a su pensamiento, sino interna. También quiere hacer comprender la profunda identidad que hay entre sus Escritos Políticos y la tarea político-cultural de la hermenéutica del origen (1922). Así, pues, no existe ningún «salto» entre la década de los veinte y la de los treinta sino una elocuente continuidad filosófico-política. Y, por último, demuestra que, al menos para el propio Heidegger, tanto el «adiestramiento» como la «selección racial» del hombre deben estar constitutivamente legalizados en la nueva realidad de Alemania; pero no por factores «biológicos» propios de la ciencia moderna, sino porque es «metafísicamente necesario» para la Sorge o cuidado del ser de Occidente. Siendo lo más original de este trabajo el descubrimiento de la relación entre la selección racial y su obra maestra Ser y Tiempo. Mientras que el método que seguiré será el de focalizar tres momentos decisivos, aunque no los únicos, de la obra de Heidegger mediante los que podemos comprender las razones filosóficas por las que la figura de Heidegger se va a convertir en unos de los intelectuales al servicio del régimen.PALABRAS CLAVEHEIDEGGER, NAZISMO, SER Y TIEMPO, SELECCIÓN RACIALABSTRACTThe main objective of this paper is to prove that Heidegger’s relationship with Nazism is not external to his thought, but internal. We want to explain the deep identity between his Political Writings and the political-cultural task of the hermeneutics of origin (1922). Therefore, there isn’t any ‘leap’ between the 20s and the 30s but a significant philosophical and political continuity. And finally, we demonstrate that, at least for Heidegger himself, both human ‘dressage’ and ‘racial selection’ should be constitutionally legalized in the new German reality; not as a consequence of ‘biological’ factors characteristic of modern science, but because it is ‘metaphysically necessary’ for Sorge or care of the Western being-in-the-world. The discovery of the link between racial selection and his masterpiece Being and Time is the most original element of this paper. We will focus on three crucial moments, not the only ones though, in Heidegger’s work from which we can understand the philosophical reasons why he would become one of the minds at the service of the Nazi regime.KEY WORDSHEIDEGGER, NAZISM, BEING AND TIME, RACIAL SELECTION

Aunque la obra adolece de ambigüedades tanto en las nociones básicas como en la tesis propuesta, eso no obsta para que sus aportaciones, de gran relevancia, deban ser tenidas seriamente en cuenta.PALABRAS CLAVEHISTORIA DE LA FILOSOFÍA MODERNA; I.

The main thesis of this book is the infiniteness and divinization of human being that can be found in the writings of the late Kant. The book examined has two merits: (i) by means of an exhaustive reading of the postulates of Kant’s «Critique of Practical Reason», it manages to bring to light an internal inconsistency in these postulates; (ii) it proposes the existence of a dual nature in human being (homo phänomenon - homo noumenon) as the solution to that inconsistency. Though the book suffers from ambiguities and inaccuracy both in the basic notions employed and the main thesis advanced, it makes significant contributions that must be seriously taken into account.KEY WORDSHISTORY OF MODERN PHILOSOPHY, I.

Infinito romántico
Authors: Leyte Arturo 
Published: October 2018

RESUMENAl hilo del significado de «in-finito», el artículo explora la respuesta romántica al Planteamiento trascendental kantiano. Asimismo, se indaga en la profunda diferencia que marca ya desde el inicio el diferente destino idealista (logico-histórico) y romántico (historico‐hermenéutico) del significado de infinito. Con su exigencia de reconocer real y no solo lógicamente la relación finito/infinito, el romanticismo formulará una concepción artística de la filosofía cuyo límite último tendría que coincidir con la poesía.PALABRAS CLAVESINFINITO, ROMANTICISMO TEMPRANO, IDEALISMO TEMPRANO, FILOSOFÍA DEL ARTE, ESTÉTICA, SCHLEGEL, NOVALIS, SCHELLINGABSTRACTIn relation to the meaning of «in‐finite», this paper explores the Romantic answer to the Kantian transcendental approach. It also explores the deep difference that from the very beginning marks the different idealist (logical‐historical) and romantic (historical‐hermeneutic) destiny of the meaning of infinite. With its demand of admitting really and not only logically the connection finite/infinite, Romanticism will formulate an artistic concept of Philosophy whose ultimate limit would have to correspond with Poetry.KEY WORDSINFINITE, EARLY ROMANTICISM, EARLEY IDEALISM, PHILOSOPHY OF ART, ESTHETICS, SCHLEGEL, NOVALIS, SCHELLING
El remanente idealista en la razón pública que busca el «overlapping consensus» por mediación de un «veil of ignorance»

RESUMENEste trabajo busca establecer cuál es el remanente idealista de la razón pública que pervive en el intento infructuoso de superar el idealismo absoluto limitando la razón que debe encargarse de construir el consenso no-excluyente por superposición. Como alternativa se propone pensar un nuevo tipo de consenso, eventual e inestable, que exija- y aquí estaría latente el otro idealismo no absoluto del de Leonberg- una comunicación constante basada en el diálogo inagotable del que nazcan normas concretas de conducta consensuadas pero eventuales.PALABRAS CLAVESCONSENSUS EVENTUEL, KOMMUNIKATIVE VERNUNFT, RECEVABILITE, PUBLIC REASON.ABSTRACTThis paper want to establish the idealist remains of public reason, showing that absolute idealism can not be overcome by limiting the reason, that must build the nonexclusionary consensus by overlapping, but instead proposing like aim a new type of consensus, eventual and unstable, which would require, and here would be latent the other non-absolute idealism of Leonberg, a constant communication based on infinite dialogue that giving cause for specific rules of conduct, agreed but reviewable.KEY WORDSCONSENSUS EVENTUEL, KOMMUNIKATIVE VERNUNFT, RECEVABILITE, PUBLIC REASON.
La presencia de G.W.F. Hegel en representantes de la filosofía latinoamericana (L. Zea, A. Roig, E. Dussel, I. Ellacuría)
Authors: Schulz Michael 
Published: October 2018

RESUMENNo obstante de sus críticas de la potencialidad filosófica de América, intuiciones y argumentos de Hegel están presentes en los planteamientos de representantes importantes de la Filosofía latinoamericana, aunque siempre de una manera crítica. Conceptos claves del pensamiento de Zea, Roig, Dussel y Ellacuría – como «proyecto asuntivo», «sujeto empírico», «analéctica» y «respectividad» - indican al mismo tiempo el foco de sus discusiones con Hegel. Tal análisis permite la conclusión sorprendente de que Hegel ofrece elementos esenciales para el esbozo de una filosofía intercultural.PALABRAS CLAVESHEGEL EN LA FILOSOFÍA LATINOAMERICANA, PROYECTO ASUNTIVO, ANALÉCTICA, RESPECTIVIDAD, FILOSOFÍA INTERCULTURALABSTRACTDespite Hegel’s critique of American’s philosophical potentiality, Hegel’s intuitionsand arguments are present in approaches of important representatives of Latin American philosophy, although always in a critical manner. Zea’s, Roig’s, Dussel’s and Ellacuría’s key concepts - such as the «assumptive project», «empirical subject», «analectic» and «respectivity» –indicate at the same time the focus of their discussion with Hegel. The analysis of the discussion with Hegel permits the surprising conclusion that Hegel offers essential elements for an outline of an intercultural philosophy.KEY WORDSHEGEL IN LATIN AMERICAN PHILOSOPHY, ASSUMPTIVE PROJECT, ANALECTIC, RESPECTIVITY, INTERCULTURAL PHILOSOPHY
El mecanismo evolutivo de Margulis y los niveles de selección
Authors: Suárez Rodríguez Javier 
Published: October 2018

RESUMENLa teoría evolutiva de Margulis implica una auténtica revisión de algunos de los conceptos fundamentales de la biología tradicional. Uno de tales cambios tiene que ver con el controvertido debate acerca de las unidades de selección. Este trabajo considera la propuesta de Margulis como una nueva tradición de investigación (TI) y trata de evaluar sus consecuencias para la citada disputa. Se sugieren tres ideas: una, que su teoría supone la revisión de conceptos tradicionales de la biología; dos, que su estudio supone una reevaluación de debates tradicionales de la filosofía de la biología; tres, que estudiarlo desde los presupuestos de Lakatos y Laudan sobre las TI nos permite iluminar la utilidad de su teoría. AbstractMargulis’ evolutionary theory entails a revision of certain core concepts of traditional biology. One of these changes is related to the hot debate about units of selection. This paper considers Margulis’ proposal as a new research tradition (RT) and evaluates its consequences to the mentioned issue. Certain evidence strongly suggests: first, that her theory supposes the revision of many classical biological concepts; second, that her position yields a reappraisal of many traditional issues in philosophy of biology; third, that its study from Lakatos and Laudan’s ideas about RT allows us to light the richness of her theory.
De la solución fenomenológica a la paradoja de McTaggart, al problema del “pluralismo” en la descripción de la realidad temporal
Authors: Cormick Claudio 
Published: October 2018

RESUMEN Intentaremos continuar en este trabajo la propuesta de una solución a la paradoja de McTaggart a partir de la retoma de una línea de análisis que se remonta a Dummett, y su complementación con ciertas tesis de la fenomenología merleaupontyana. Para ello tendremos que profundizar las posiciones del autor de Truth and other enigmas en el sentido de la objeción contra una «descripción completa» de la realidad y que favorecen, por el contrario, de una pluralidad de «descripciones máximas». Nuestro intento no debe, sin embargo, adoptar un «pluralismo» que se exponga a las objeciones de Nicholas Smith, a quien replicaremos a su vez apelando a la noción fenomenológica de «síntesis de transición». Concluiremos que el «pluralismo» de descripciones temporales que nos permite escapar a la paradoja de McTaggart no resulta incompatible con el requisito de «componibilidad» planteado por Smith.PALABRAS CLAVE TIME, MERLEAU-PONTY, MCTAGGART, DUMMETT, SMITHABSTRACTIn this paper we attempt to continue the proposal of a solution to McTaggart’s paradox on the basis of a return to a line of analysis traceable back to Dummett, and its implementation with certain tenets of Merleau-Pontyan phenomenology. With this aim, we have to deepen the positions of the author of Truth and other enigmas which point towards an objection against one “complete description” of reality and favour, on the contrary, a plurality of “maximal descriptions”. Our attempt must not, however, adopt a “pluralism” which can be targeted by Nicholas Smith’s objections, to whom, in turn, we reply by turning to the phenomenological notion of “synthesis of transition”. We conclude that the “pluralism” of temporal descriptions that allows us to escape from McTaggart’s paradox is not incompatible with the requisite of “compossibility” laid out by Smith.KEYWORDS TIME, MERLEAU-PONTY, MCTAGGART, DUMMETT, SMITH
