Response to Oral Dapsone in a Patient With Generalised Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa
ABSTRACT Dapsone is a potent antibacterial agent used as a first‐line treatment for leprosy and employed also as an anti‐inflammatory agent. Additionally, dapsone is used for a variety of other cutaneous conditions. Herein, we report a case of intermediate junctional epidermolysis bullosa that improved significantly with oral 4,4’‐diamino‐diphenyl ...

Computer Simulation of Cytoskeleton-Induced Blebbing in Lipid Membranes
Blebs are balloon-shaped membrane protrusions that form during many physiological processes. Using computer simulation of a particle-based model for self-assembled lipid bilayers coupled to an elastic meshwork, we investigated the phase behavior and ...

Voltage-gated channel mechanosensitivity: Fact or Friction?
The heart is a continually active pulsatile fluid pump that generates forces by precisely timed and spaced engagement of contractile nano-machinery. This pump largely generates its own control signals, the most crucial of which involve precisely timed ...

Canaloplasty: current value in the management of glaucoma [PDF]
Canaloplasty is a nonpenetrating blebless surgical technique for open-angle glaucoma, in which a flexible microcatheter is inserted within Schlemm's canal for the entire 360 degrees. When the microcatheter exits the opposite end, a 10-0 prolene suture is

Successful Treatment of Severe Adult Linear IgA Dermatosis Using Dupilumab
ABSTRACT Linear IgA dermatosis (LAD) is a rare autoimmune subepidermal bullous dermatosis, characterised by the presence of erythematous vesiculobullous lesions arranged in rosettes or herpetiform clusters. The standard treatment involves the administration of dapsone, followed by sulfasalazine, and general corticosteroid therapy, often in combination ...

Mesna in Otologic Surgery: Efficacy and Safety—A Scoping Review
PRISMA flow diagram indicating the process of systematic inclusion and exclusion of articles. ABSTRACT Objective Mesna (Sodium 2‐mercaptoethanesulfonate) is widely used as a mucolytic agent and uroprotective agent. Recently, its disulfide bond‐breaking property has been applied in otologic surgery to facilitate safer dissection of cholesteatoma and ...
