Halo Effect01:27

Halo Effect

581
The halo effect is a cognitive bias in which an individual's overall impression influences judgments about their specific traits. This psychological phenomenon leads people to associate positive characteristics with those they perceive as generally good and negative characteristics with those they view as bad. This effect is particularly influential in social perception, professional evaluations, and decision-making processes.The Psychological Basis of the Halo EffectThe halo effect is rooted...

Multipotency and Niche of Bulge Stem Cell

4.3K
A hair follicle or HF is a small part of the skin that produces the hair shaft. Paul Gerson Unna was the first to observe a bulge in the human hair follicle's outer root sheath (ORS). The bulge is present between the sebaceous gland and the arrector pili muscle and is the niche for hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). The bulge is also a niche for melanocyte stem cells, and their loss results in graying of hair. The HFSCs express Sox9 and Lhx2, which help them maintain stemness and prevent...

Papillary Dermis

6.5K
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...

Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

6.4K
Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Sutton's nevus, a rare condition causing skin depigmentation around moles, was observed in a young man. The study noted spontaneous hair shedding within the affected halo area alongside skin color loss.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Clinical Case Reports

    Background:

    • Sutton's nevus, also known as the halo nevus, is characterized by a depigmented halo surrounding a melanocytic nevus.
    • This phenomenon is thought to be immune-mediated, targeting both the nevus and surrounding melanocytes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report a case of Sutton's nevus in a young male patient.
    • To document associated clinical findings, specifically hair shedding in the halo.

    Main Methods:

    • Clinical observation and photographic documentation of the case.
    • Review of existing literature on halo nevi.

    Main Results:

    • A young man presented with a typical halo nevus.
    • Spontaneous shedding of hair within the depigmented halo was observed concurrently with depigmentation.

    Conclusions:

    • This case highlights an unusual manifestation of Sutton's nevus, including associated alopecia within the halo.
    • Further research may elucidate the immunologic mechanisms underlying both depigmentation and hair loss in halo nevi.
