The impact of stigmatization of psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and mastocytosis in different areas of life—A qualitative interview study

Skin Health and Disease, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Stereotypes and false assumptions about chronic and visible skin diseases can determine the behaviour towards affected individuals and result in stigmatization or discrimination. Objective The aim of this study was to analyze the perceived disease‐related stigmatization of individuals with psoriasis, atopic dermatitis (AD) or ...

Intraoral Drug Delivery: Bridging the Gap Between Academic Research and Industrial Innovations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Intraoral drug delivery offers a promising route for systemic and localized therapies, yet challenges such as enzymatic degradation, limited permeability, and microbial interactions hinder efficacy. This figure highlights innovative strategies—mucoadhesive materials, enzyme inhibitors, and permeation enhancers—to overcome these barriers.

Infrared Radiation of Graphene Electrothermal Film Triggered Alpha and Theta Brainwaves

Small Science, Volume 2, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
A multilayer graphene electrothermal film is proposed to trigger enhanced alpha and theta brainwaves in the human brain, attributing to the efficient infrared radiation from graphene located in the range from 7 to 14 μm. This work represents a convenient and noninvasive characterization tool for enhancing the activity of brain waves, which has many ...

New Concepts on the Pathophysiology of Acute Coronary Syndrome

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is the most severe form of ischemic heart disease. Although it is caused by atherosclerotic plaque thrombosis or nonatherosclerotic causes, its pathophysiological mechanism of ACS is not fully understood, and its concept is ...
