Skin cancer is less common in persons with skin of color than in light-skinned Caucasians but is often associated with greater morbidity and mortality. Thus, it is crucial that physicians become familiar with skin cancer in persons of color so as to maximize the likelihood of early detection of these tumors. In dark-skinned ethnic groups, squamous cell

Skin cancer is often associated with greater morbidity and mortality in skin of color patients because most medical literature and research on skin cancer to date has been predominantly focused on lighter skin types. It is crucial that dermatologic providers be able to recognize different presentations of skin cancer in skin of color patients to ...

The role of the skin as a potential route of exposure to nanomaterials is described in the present chapter. We survey the existing literature on various types of nanomaterials with respect to their penetration through the skin and toxicological responses. Most studies suggest minimal skin penetration and little to no systemic exposure. However, studies

AbstractSkin aging appears to be the result of both scheduled and continuous “wear and tear” processes that damage cellular DNA and proteins. Two types of aging, chronological skin aging and photoaging, have distinct clinical and histological features. Chronological skin aging is a universal and inevitable process characterized primarily by physiologic

Infant skin differs from adult skin in several ways. These important differences place infants at increased risk for fluid electrolyte imbalance, thermal instability, skin damage, percutaneous infection, and percutaneous toxicity from topically applied agents.

Skin inflammation is an often-occurring phenomenon in a wide range of skin pathologies. In order to understand the basics of the underlying molecular mechanisms, early responses such as gene expression changes in this tissue are the focus of numerous studies.

Dry skin and skin moisturizers
Clinics in Dermatology, 1988Abstract The patient perceives dry skin to be rough, dry, scaly, and cracked, sometimes feeling the onset of subclinical symptoms before obvious outward clinical manifestation is apparent. More accurately, the clinician may describe dry skin or xerosis as roughened, scaling skin with possibly some cracking. The patient may also experience pruritis and

Obesity and the skin: Skin physiology and skin manifestations of obesity
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2007Obesity is widely recognized as an epidemic in the Western world; however, the impact of obesity on the skin has received minimal attention. The purpose of this article is to highlight the association between obesity and dermatologic conditions. We review the impact of obesity on the skin, including skin physiology, skin manifestations of obesity, and ...
