Uso del dermatoscopio en la lectura de pruebas epicutáneas: ¿qué puede aportar?
Resumen: La lectura de los parches de pruebas epicutáneas no es sencilla, presenta una gran variabilidad inter- e intraobservador y requiere experiencia. En ocasiones es realmente difícil determinar si se trata de una reacción alérgica de intensidad leve

Analysis of hypersensitivity in fragrance series by patch testing
Introduction: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is an inflammatory disorder, which occurs as a result of repeated contact with an allergen. Fragrances are the products obtained naturally or produced synthetically.

Changing allergen pattern in allergic contact dermatitis
Background: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), a T-cell mediated type 4 hypersensitivity reaction, occurs when skin get exposed to exogenous allergens. True incidence of ACD is difficult to estimate.

Atopic dermatitis is a major problem among the urban population and it can be aggravated or triggered by various allergens. Atopic patch test can be used as a diagnostic tool in characterizing patients with allergen triggered atopic dermatitis.1. Patch testing to reproduce an eczematous reaction by applying prick test allergens under occlusion on ...

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Patch Testing 101, Part 2: After the Patch Test [PDF]
After the patch test, the physician must interpret positive reactions in the clinical context of the patient's dermatitis. Relevance can be graded as current, past, or unknown. Counseling the patient on allergen avoidance is the most important step, and resources such as allergen information sheets and physician-generated safe lists from product ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...
