Sexually Transmitted Infections01:26

Sexually Transmitted Infections

679
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are diseases transmitted primarily through unsafe sexual interactions. Bacteria, viruses, or parasites cause them and can result in severe health complications if untreated.ChlamydiaThe bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis is responsible for the disease Chlamydia, the most common STI in the United States. This peculiar pathogen requires human cells to reproduce, residing intracellularly. The initial infection often goes unnoticed because it typically does not...

Accessory Structures of the Skin: Sebaceous Glands01:21

Accessory Structures of the Skin: Sebaceous Glands

3.5K
A sebaceous gland is a type of oil gland found almost all over the skin ( except palms and soles) and helps lubricate and waterproof the skin and hair. Most sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles. They generate and excrete sebum, a mixture of lipids, onto the skin surface, thereby naturally lubricating the dry and dead layer of keratinized cells of the stratum corneum, keeping it pliable.
These glands that produce the oils on the skin and hair are holocrine glands. The mature...

External Female Genitals

The vulva encompasses the external structures of the female reproductive system. At the forefront is the monpubis, a cushion of fatty tissue atop the pubic bone. Once puberty sets in, this area typically grows hair. Extending from just behind the mons pubis are the labia majora (labia = 'lips'; majora = 'larger'), which are larger skin fs olds coated with hair. Nestled within are the labia minora (labia = 'lips'; minora = 'smaller'), which are thinner, more...

Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

5.6K
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...

Sex-linked Disorders01:43

Sex-linked Disorders

106.8K
Like autosomes, sex chromosomes contain a variety of genes necessary for normal body function. When a mutation in one of these genes results in biological deficits, the disorder is considered sex-linked.

Papillary Dermis01:11

Papillary Dermis

5.1K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Parasitology

Background:

  • Scabies is a contagious skin infestation caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei.
  • Nodular scabies is an uncommon but distinct clinical presentation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the clinical characteristics of nodular scabies.
  • To outline diagnostic and treatment approaches for nodular scabies.

Main Methods:

  • Clinical case description and literature review.
  • Analysis of characteristic symptoms and diagnostic criteria.

Main Results:

  • Nodular scabies features firm, erythematous, pruritic nodules.
  • Genital involvement is common in nodular scabies.
  • Diagnosis is primarily clinical.

Conclusions:

  • Nodular scabies requires clinical recognition due to its characteristic presentation.
  • Topical permethrin and oral ivermectin are effective first-line treatments.
