Neonatal Skin Disorders: A Review of Selected Dermatologic Abnormalities

, 2000
The skin serves many purposes, acting as a barrier to infection, protecting internal organs, contributing to temperature regulation, storing insulating fats, excreting electrolytes and water, and providing tactile sensory input. This article focuses on a

The pH of the skin surface and its impact on the barrier function [PDF]

, 2006
The `acid mantle' of the stratum corneum seems to be important for both permeability barrier formation and cutaneous antimicrobial defense. However, the origin of the acidic pH, measurable on the skin surface, remains conjectural.

Epidermal Nevi and Epidermal Naevus Syndromes

JEADV Clinical Practice, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 669-680, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Epidermal nevi (EN) arise from postzygotic variants in ectoderm‐derived cell lines, such as keratinocytes and cells forming adnexa. EN may be present alone without any associated abnormality or be part of a syndrome. In this review, we will discuss about the clinical and genetics of the main types of EN and related syndromes.

Clinical Classification of Mosaicism

JEADV Clinical Practice, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 646-651, August 2025.
Mosaic skin abnormalities can present under a segmental pattern or as ¡non‐segmental skin lesions. Non‐segmental mosaicism (Figure 1, a‐c), which is most common, includes individual point lesions, tumors, hamartomatous lesions, or malformations. Segmental mosaicism (Figure 2, a‐f)is less common and presents as asymmetric cutaneous lesions in one or ...

Comprehensive Molecular Analysis of Disease-Related Genes as First-Tier Test for Early Diagnosis, Classification, and Management of Patients Affected by Nonsyndromic Ichthyosis

Biomedicines
Inherited ichthyoses are a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous rare disorders of skin keratinization with overlapping phenotypes. The clinical picture and family history are crucial to formulating the diagnostic hypothesis, but only the ...

A Pilot Study to Evaluate Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in a Pediatric Cohort With Genodermatoses

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 197, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Our study aimed to evaluate cognitive function in individuals with genetic skin disorders involving neuroectoderm (n = 8) compared to individuals with only ectoderm or mesoderm (n = 16) involvement. We hypothesized that neuroectodermal involvement would result in poorer neurocognitive performance.
