Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

44.8K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Fixing Double-strand Breaks

14.7K
The double-stranded structure of DNA has two major advantages. First, it serves as a safe repository of genetic information where one strand serves as the back-up in case the other strand is damaged. Second, the double-helical structure can be wrapped around proteins called histones to form nucleosomes, which can then be tightly wound to form chromosomes. This way, DNA chains up to 2 inches long can be contained within microscopic structures in a cell. A double-stranded break not only damages...

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

9.9K
In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Internal Medicine

Background:

  • Prickly heat (miliaria) results from sweat duct obstruction.
  • It manifests differently based on obstruction depth: superficial (crystallina), mid-epidermal (rubra), or deeper (profunda).

Observation:

  • A 70-year-old diabetic female in intensive care presented with diffuse, firm, clear vesicular lesions.
  • These lesions suggested miliaria crystallina, a form of prickly heat.

Findings:

  • Miliaria crystallina is linked to sweat retention from stratum corneum obstruction.
  • The patient's condition resolved spontaneously with fever regression.

Implications:

  • This case illustrates a typical presentation and benign course of miliaria crystallina.
  • Understanding sweat duct obstruction levels aids in diagnosing various miliaria types.
