Expert Opinion Elicitation for Assisting Deep Learning based Lyme Disease Classifier with Patient Data [PDF]
Diagnosing erythema migrans (EM) skin lesion, the most common early symptom of Lyme disease using deep learning techniques can be effective to prevent long-term complications. Existing works on deep learning based EM recognition only utilizes lesion image due to the lack of a dataset of Lyme disease related images with associated patient data ...

A hydrogel for intra‐articular injection for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is formulated and comprehensively studied. After administration, the hydrogel induces a metabolic reprogramming of immunometabolism of macrophages to trigger fatty acid oxidation subsequently inducing polarization of anti‐inflammatory M2 macrophages. This results in

Three‐dimensional multispectral facial imaging to monitor actinic damage treated with 5‐fluorouracil
Background Standardised therapeutic monitoring of field skin cancerisation is challenging. 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) is a common topical therapy for ultraviolet radiation (UV) and actinic keratosis (AK) but is often accompanied with adverse side effects ...

Salt‐Compact Albumin as a New Pure Protein‐based Biomaterials: From Design to In Vivo Studies
A new class of materials built entirely of native albumin protein is designed using a simple protocol based on salt‐assisted compaction, breaking with current crosslinking strategies. This green process leads, surprisingly, to water‐insoluble handable materials with high preservation of their native protein structures and Young's modulus close to that ...

AI Progress in Skin Lesion Analysis [PDF]
We examine progress in the use of AI for detecting skin lesions, with particular emphasis on the erythema migrans rash of acute Lyme disease, and other lesions, such as those from conditions like herpes zoster (shingles), tinea corporis, erythema multiforme, cellulitis, insect bites, or tick bites. We discuss important challenges for these applications,

Safety Evaluation of Repeated Application of Polymeric Microarray Patches in Miniature Pigs
This study demonstrates the safety of repeated application of three types of microarray patches (MAPs), hydrogelforming, dissolving, and implantable, over four weeks in miniature pigs. No adverse skin or systemic effects were observed, supporting the clinical potential of MAPs as safe and effective drug delivery platforms.

Some considerations on the protection against the health hazards associated with solar ultraviolet radiation [PDF]
The present report briefly reviews the basic features of the current strategy for the protection against the health harms caused by solar ultraviolet (UV, 295 - 400 nm). The emphasis has been made upon the erythema as being the best-studied UV harm and the ability of UV irradiance to damage the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules, which leads to ...
