Skin Diseases and Disorders

5.4K
Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...

Papillary Dermis

Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
Papillary Layer
The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen...

Introduction to the Integumentary System

17.4K
The integumentary system is the organ system that comprises the skin and its associated structures. It is the largest system in the human body and plays a crucial role in protecting and maintaining homeostasis. The integumentary system serves several functions including protection, regulation, sensation, and secretion.
The skin, which is the primary organ of the integumentary system, consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous tissue). The epidermis is the...

Integrated Healthcare System

2.4K
An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Medical Informatics
  • Integrative Medicine

Background:

  • Rising incidence of incurable dermatological conditions linked to steroid and immunosuppressant overuse.
  • Challenges in accessing and integrating information from Western Medicine (WM) and Traditional Medicine (TM) for dermatological issues.
  • Need for a unified approach to leverage the strengths of both WM and TM.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an integrated medical information infrastructure for dermatological conditions.
  • To bridge the gap between Western Medicine and Traditional Medicine information.
  • To create a searchable database system for enhanced patient care and research.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted literature searches and utilized internet databases for WM and TM information on dermatological conditions.
  • Generated definitions for unified terminology and disease categorization.
  • Established a searchable database system, the Digital Integrative Medicine Information (DIMI) system.

Main Results:

  • Successfully collected and organized WM and TM data on dermatological issues.
  • Developed a unified terminology and disease categorization framework.
  • Created a functional, searchable database (DIMI) accessible online.

Conclusions:

  • The developed database system serves as a model for integrating diverse medical information.
  • The DIMI system can significantly benefit researchers and clinicians in providing optimal patient solutions.
  • Accessible integration of WM and TM data is crucial for advancing dermatological treatment.
