科学领域:
- 免疫学 免疫学 免疫学
- 皮肤病学 皮肤病学
- 计算生物学 计算生物学
背景情况:
- 亚托邦性皮肤炎 (AD) 是儿童患的一种流行慢性炎症性皮肤病.
- 了解儿科阿尔茨海默病的免疫细胞概况 (白细胞格局) 对于疾病分层,监测和确定新的治疗点至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 为了表征亚托皮性皮肤炎的儿科患者的免疫细胞组成.
- 应用一种新的基于DNA甲基化 (DNAm) 的算法来估计AD中的白细胞比例.
主要方法:

Changes in Skin Color: Clinical Perspectives
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.

Albinism is a genetic disorder that affects (completely or partially) the coloring of skin, hair, and eyes. The defect is primarily...

Skin Diseases and Disorders
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...
