Dermoscopy in the Treatment Monitoring of Cutaneous Infectious Diseases: A Review

open access: yesDermatologic Therapy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Dermoscopy represents a powerful, noninvasive tool for assessing both active infection and therapeutic resolution in a broad spectrum of infectious skin diseases. Despite the different causative agents (parasitic, viral, or fungal), it allows to identify characteristic pathogen‐associated structures at baseline and sequential morphological changes ...

The geographical segregation of human lice preceded that of Pediculus humanus capitis and Pediculus humanus humanus

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Biologies, 2003
In order to investigate human-louse phylogeny, we partially sequenced two nuclear (18S rRNA and EF-1 α ) and one mitochondrial (COI) genes from 155 Pediculus from different geographical origins. The phylogenetic analysis of 18S rRNA and EF-1

Role of the Setae in an Ectoparasitic Seal Louse in Reducing Surface Drag: Numerical Modeling Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2025.
The seal louse Echinophthirius horridus has uniquely shaped setae that may reduce drag during its host's dives. Using numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that their natural inclination promotes vortex formation, minimizing friction and energy loss. These findings provide insights into biological surface adaptations and may inspire the design

Neandertal Cold Adaptation: Technological, Anatomical, and Physiological Responses to Cold Stress in One of Our Closest Fossil Relatives

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Biology, Volume 37, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Neandertals occupied western Eurasia for over 100 000 years, repeatedly enduring climates that ranged from seasonally cold to glacial. This paper reexamines the question of Neandertal cold adaptation using updated fossil, physiological, and archaeological evidence.

Analyzing Bacterial Communities in Pediculus humanus capitis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2015
Understanding the composition of the microbiome of human associated insects can shed light on the sources of potential human pathogens. The human head louse, Pediculus humanus capitis, is an obligate symbiont found in the hair of humans, especially children. It is known to harbor an obligate endosymbiont, Candidatus Reisia.
