- 皮膚科
背景:
- Staphylococcal-scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) は,Staphylococcus aureus毒素によって引き起こされる深刻な皮膚疾患である.
- 主に乳児や幼い子供に 発症し,水泡や皮の剥がれが生じます
研究 の 目的:
- イタリアの小児科コホートにおけるSSSSの疫学,臨床,治療の特徴を調査する.
- 小児のSSSS症例におけるアウトカムを評価し,潜在的なリスク要因や傾向を特定する.
主な方法:
- 2010年から2023年の間にSSSSと診断された子どもの医療記録の遡及的レビュー
- データ抽出には,人口統計,臨床表現,検査結果,治療,入院期間が含まれていた.
主要な成果:
- 971人の子供のうち21人 (2.1%) がSSSSを患っており,そのほとんどが5歳未満でした.
- 大半の症例は軽度の血液学的結果を示したが,重度の合併症 (脱水,セプシス,HSV1) は14. 3%で発生した.

Burn injuries occur when the skin and underlying tissues are damaged due to exposure to heat, electricity, chemicals, radiation, or friction. They can vary in severity, from minor superficial burns to severe deep burns that can be life-threatening.
The damage results in the death of skin cells, which can lead to a massive loss of fluid. Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and renal and circulatory failure follow, which can be fatal. Burn patients are treated with intravenous fluids to offset...

Epidermal stem cells (EpiSCs) are mainly located at the basal layer of the epidermis. These cells repair minor injuries of the skin and replace dead skin cells. However, EpiSCs’ cannot heal severe wounds such as major burns or those from diabetes or hereditary disorders. In such cases, culturing the epidermal stem cells from the patient is possible and has yielded successful treatment options, such as laboratory-grown skin grafts. These grafts are synthesized using a patient’s own...

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...

The first thing a clinician sees is the skin, so the examination of the skin should be part of any thorough physical examination. Most skin disorders are relatively benign, but a few, including melanomas, can be fatal if untreated. A couple of the more noticeable disorders, albinism and vitiligo, affect the appearance of the skin and its accessory organs.
