Retinoids and proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (PVL). A preliminary study.
2010
Objective. A study is made of the efficacy and adverse effects of retinoid therapy applied to the white lesions of proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (PVL). Material and methods. The results of retinoid therapy were evaluated in 17 patients diagnosed with PVL. Topical retinoids were used in 5 patients, in the form of two daily applications of 0.1% 13-cis-retinoic acid in orabase for an average of 6.17+/-3.13 months. Systemic retinoids were used in 11 patients, with the administration of 25 mg/day of acitretin in tablet form for an average of 5.41+/-2.02 months. One patient successively received the topical and systemic retinoid formulations. The course and results were evaluated on a blind…
A comparison of the effectiveness of azelaic and pyruvic acid peels in the treatment of female adult acne: a randomized controlled trial
2020
AbstractChemical peels are widely used as therapeutic agents in dermatology and cosmetology. This study aims to explore the differences in the effectiveness of azelaic and pyruvic acid peels in the treatment of acne vulgaris. Eligibility criteria for participants were: female gender, 18–25 years of age, no dermatological treatment within the last 12 months and mild to moderate papulopustular acne. We treated 120 young women (with a mean age of 22 years old) with six peeling sessions at 2-week intervals. In the parallel clinical study design, one randomized group (n = 60, 50%) was treated using azelaic acid (AA), whereas the second group participated in pyruvic acid (PA) sessions. We evaluat…

Capítulo 1. Introducción general Los vertebrados constituyen uno de los grupos de animales más exitosos, contando con más de 60000 especies distintas y ocupando la gran mayoría de ecosistemas marinos y continentales. Su origen y evolución han sido temas centrales para biólogos y paleontólogos durante décadas, pero las discusiones en este sentido se han visto obstaculizadas porque los grupos actuales (ciclóstomos, condrictios y osteíctios) constituyen solo una pequeña representación de toda la diversidad que existió en el pasado. Por lo tanto, el registro fósil es crucial para arrojar luz sobre estos aspectos permitiendo desvelar el momento y el tempo de la aparición de los diferentes caract…
Effectiveness of semi-permeable dressings to treat radiation-induced skin reactions. A systematic review
2017
The aim of this systematic review is to assess the available evidence concerning the effectiveness of semi-permeable dressings, on the full range of skin reactions, related to radiation therapy in cancer patients, from local erythema to moist desquamation, including subjective symptoms such as pain, discomfort, itchiness, burning and the effect on daily life activities. The bibliographic search was carried out looking for Randomised Clinical Trials (RCTs) indexed in PubMed, Cinhal, Cochrane plus and Biblioteca Nacional de Salud, published in the English and Spanish language, between 2010 and 2015. Data extraction and evaluation of study quality was undertaken by peer reviewers using the Cri…
Oral mucosal peeling related to dentifrices and mouthwashes: A systematic review
2018
Background The aim of this systematic review was to summarise the clinical information available about oral mucosal peeling (OMP) and to explore its aetiopathogenic association with dentifrices and mouthwashes. Material and Methods PICOS outline: Population: subjects diagnosed clinically and/or pathologically. Intervention: exposition to oral hygiene products. Comparisons: patients using products at different concentrations. Outcomes: clinicopathological outcomes (primary) and oral epithelial desquamation (secondary) after use. Study design: any.
