Abstract Patients with mycosis fungoides typically experience an indolent disease. In some cases, the disease undergoes a process of large cell transformation which often heralds a more aggressive course with shortened overall survival. In order to rule out large cell transformation, biopsy specimens are often collected from patients with established disease who develop new papules, plaques or tumours. In some cases, multiple biopsies are needed and scar, infection and sampling error can occur....

Abstract Facial aesthetic treatment with injectable neuromodulators and hyaluronic acid fillers is well established, with favourable safety profiles and consistent outcomes. As with any medical treatment, adverse events and complications may occur. Adverse events associated with these products are typically transient and mild to moderate in severity. Serious adverse events, such as infection and intravascular occlusion, are rare. Proper patient selection, consent and counselling, preparation and...

Abstract The assessment of wetland changes on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is an important component of global change research. The Damqu River Basin (DRB) lies within the southern source of the Yangtze River and is part of the core wetlands area of the Three Rivers Source Region (TRSR). We examined the distribution of wetlands across this region based on remote sensing image interpretations. The results revealed clear evidence of changes over the period between 1988 and 2015, with...

Zusammenfassung Thermische Verletzungen treten in jedem Lebensalter auf und entstehen durch Flammen, Flüssigkeiten, Dämpfe oder direkten Kontakt. Nicht selten werden sie bagatellisiert, sollten jedoch zügig behandelt werden, um sekundäre Komplikationen wie z. B. Infektionen oder hypertrophe Narben zu minimieren. Dabei stehen neben den Schmerzen die großen Wundflächen im Vordergrund. Liegen mindestens IIb-gradige Verbrennungen vor, muss zeitnah die operative Versorgung angestrebt...

Abstract Objectives Bone regeneration is a complex process modulated by multiple growth factors and hormones during long regeneration period; thus, designing biomaterials with the capacity to deliver multiple bioactive molecules and obtain sustained release has gained an increasing popularity in recent years. This study is aimed to evaluate the effect of a novel core‐shell electrospun fibre loaded with dexamethasone (DEX) and bone morphogenetic protein‐2 (BMP‐2) on bone regeneration. ...
