Naevus Comedonicus Immunohistochemical Features in Two Cases
2003
Sir, Naevus comedonicus was first described by Kofmann in 1895 (1). It was arranged in groups or linear patterns along Blaschko’s line and located on the face, neck, upper arms, chest and abdomen.

The objective of this study was to analyse the clinical and immunohistochemical features of two patients with extensive naevus comedonicus arranged in groups and linear patterns without non-cutaneous abnormalities.
Comparison of training and anthropometric characteristics between recreational male half-marathoners and marathoners
2013
Zillmann, Teresa | Knechtle, Beat | Ruest, Christoph Alexander | Knechtle, Patrizia | Rosemann, Thomas | Lepers, Romuald; International audience; ''Participation in endurance running such as half-marathon (21-km) and marathon (42-km) has increased over the last decades. We compared 147 recreational male half-marathoners and 126 recreational male marathoners to investigate similarities or differences in their anthropometric and training characteristics. The half-marathoners were heavier (P < 0.05), had longer legs (P < 0.001), thicker upper arms (P < 0.05), a thicker thigh (P < 0.01), a higher sum of skinfold thicknesses (P < 0.01), a higher body fat percentage (P < 0.05) and a higher skelet…
