Transepidermal water loss in the orphan forms of ichthyosis
Pediatric Dermatology, 2020AbstractAs a surrogate measure of skin barrier dysfunction, we sought to determine differences in transepidermal water loss (TEWL) among ichthyosis subtypes and correlate TEWL with clinical severity. Subjects with Netherton syndrome had the highest TEWL values (increased water loss), while TEWL values were lowest in subjects with epidermolytic ...

THE MEASUREMENT OF TRANSEPIDERMAL WATER LOSS
British Journal of Dermatology, 1969SUMMARY.— Transepidermal water loss has been measured at the equilibrium state, i.e. when it reached a constant value at a particular flow rate of dry gas passing over the skin. Measured in this way, transepidermal water loss from the skin is dependent on the rate of flow of the dry gas and the surface area of skin exposed to the flow.

TRANSEPIDERMAL WATER LOSS IN NEWBORN INFANTS
Acta Paediatrica, 2008Using a method described earlier, the evaporation rate (ER) was studied at different humidities in 12 newborn infants born after 25 to 30 weeks of gestation and 10 infants born after 32 to 35 weeks. Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was estimated in 32 infants born after 25 to 39 weeks of gestation.

Indirect measures of transepidermal water loss
1981The common method of measuring transepidermal water loss (TWL) using a flowing gas stream is subject to errors, many of which can be avoided in the applications where convective removal of skin surface water is minimized with respect to diffusive mechanisms.

Transepidermal water loss with and without sweat gland inactivation
Contact Dermatitis, 1989The influence of eccrine sweating on transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was investigated. TEWL was simultaneously measured on both forearms, with and without topical inactivation of the eccrine sweat glands by 0.3 ml of 0.5% aqueous scopolamine hydrobromide (HBr), applied under 1 h occlusive patches.

Transepidermal water loss in erythrodermic patients of various aetiologies
Skin Research and Technology, 2013Background/purposeDespite its severity not much work has been done to explore the barrier function in patients with erythroderma. This study compares TEWL between skin of healthy subjects and erythrodermic patients of various aetiologies and at different sites.

The relationship between transepidermal water loss and skin permeability
International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2010Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) is a measure of the steady-state water vapour flux crossing the skin to the external environment and it has been used extensively to characterise skin barrier function. We have previously hypothesised that in vivo TEWL is directly related to the reciprocal of the diffusional permeation pathlength through the stratum ...

Semipermeable Dressing and Transepidermal Water Loss in Premature Infants
Pediatrics, 1990Within the first days of life, 10 infants, of 32 weeks' gestational age or less, began 2 weeks of treatment with a semipermeable wound dressing over a small area of skin. The effects of the dressing on transepidermal water loss and cutaneous microflora were evaluated.

The relationship between skin structure and transepidermal water loss
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1973Abstract 1. 1. The effect of alterations to the basic structure of the skin, without injury, on transepidermal water loss (T.W.L.) has been investigated and the T.W.L. of mucous membranes determined. 2. 2. Covering the skin with zinc oxide tape for a period of 1 week results in an increase in T.W.L.
