It is more prevalent in female population as opposed to male population (with the exception of phymatous rosacea where majority of affected patients are adult male). A 2012 study consisting of 60,042 patients in the United Kingdom identified that 61.5% of patients with rosacea was female. Further studies suggest that rosacea has a greater impact on quality of life of f...

Kleinman Article Type: Short Review | First Published: April 21, 2016 It is very likely that dermatologists will see patients who have both skin concerns and concomitant dry eye syndrome. Over 25 million Americans have some form of dry eye, and symptoms related to dry eye are one of the leading causes of visits to ophthalmologists. Dry eye syndrome can often be easy to diagnose, and the first line of interventions are simple, low risk, and low cost. Specialists and subspecialists are generally averse to making medical recommendations outside their field of experti...

Open Access DOI:10.23937/2469-5750/1510014 Targeting Myostatin Signaling in Skin Healing Christoph Wallner, Marcus Lehnhardt and Bjorn Behr Article Type: Short Review | First Published: February 17, 2016 Myostatin is a protein well described for its role in decelerating muscle anabolism. Most studies targeting the Myostatin pathway were performed in muscle wasting diseases. Recent studies unveil a potential approach to interfere with the Myostatin pathway to facilitate wound healing. We therefore reviewed the present literature for aiming the Myostatin pathway as a potential treatment option in impaired skin healing. The inhibition of Myostatin may facilitate wound healing through different ways...
