Store‐and‐Forward Teledermatological Collaboration Between Prisons and University Hospitals in Switzerland

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Dermatological conditions are common but often undertreated, causing unnecessary suffering. Teledermatology offers remote consultations to improve access. Our study analyzed 140 consultations in 125 inmates, mostly male with skin type IV. Itching and pain were frequent symptoms; eczema and scabies were common diagnoses.

Transepidermal Water Loss of Human Newborns

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1970
Transepidermal water loss (TWL) measurements of healthy human term newborns were determined by resistance hygrometry. The average TWL of newborn upper back skin was found to be slightly but significantly lower than the TWL of comparable adult back skin.

Dysregulated proteolytic cascades in Netherton syndrome: from molecular pathology to preclinical drug testing

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Netherton syndrome (NS) is a rare, severe, and often life‐threatening disease for which current therapeutic approaches are limited and show variable effectiveness. NS is characterized by excessive epidermal desquamation that results in a highly defective epidermal barrier, constitutive skin inflammation, allergies, and hair abnormalities.

Investigation of the skin recovery dynamics following acute sleep deprivation and the correlations among biological parameters

open access: yesSleep Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sleep deprivation leads to changes in circadian rhythm, causing skin problems and aging. Whether acute sleep deprivation can be normalized after 14 days of natural skin metabolism is an important indicator for guiding treatment of sleep‐related skin physiological changes and mechanisms.
