4 acne rosacea (1)
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects the central face. It is characterized by persistent erythema, telangiectasias, and inflammatory lesions. Perioral dermatitis presents as small papules and pustules around the mouth. Both conditions have unclear etiologies but may be triggered by sun exposure, hot foods/beverages, cosmetics, or medications like topical steroids. Treatment involves oral antibiotics like doxycycline or topical metronidazole to reduce inflammation. Surgery or laser treatments are sometimes used for severe rosacea complications.
Seborrhoeic Dermatitis
This document discusses seborrheic dermatitis, a chronic papulosquamous skin condition characterized by yellowish, waxy, branny scaling along areas with sebaceous glands like the scalp, face, and trunk. It commonly affects infants under 3 months of age and adults between 40-70 years old. While the exact cause is unknown, factors like sebum production, microbial effects of Malassezia fungi, and genetic and environmental factors may play a role. The document describes the various clinical presentations in infants and adults and treatments involving topical antifungals, corticosteroids, keratolytics, and systemic antifungals.
Pruritus
Pruritus, or itch, is a sensation that provokes the desire to scratch. Chronic pruritus lasts more than 6 weeks and can be caused by skin diseases or systemic diseases. Itch is transmitted through unmyelinated C fibers and is a distinct sensation from pain. Scratching provides temporary relief by stimulating myelinated fibers or damaging sensory nerve endings. Management of pruritus involves general skin care, topical agents like corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, local anesthetics, and antihistamines, as well as treating any underlying cause.
Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition that causes red scaly patches to appear on the skin. The most common form is plaque psoriasis, which accounts for 80-90% of cases, appearing as raised, red patches covered with silvery scales. Psoriasis occurs when skin cells multiply up to 10 times faster than normal. It is believed to be both a disorder of skin cell growth and an immune-mediated disease driven by T cells and cytokines. Psoriasis has no cure but can be managed with topical treatments and phototherapy. It affects the joints in 10-20% of cases (psoriatic arthritis).
Psoriasis-The best Presentation
The document discusses psoriasis, including its epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and management. Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition characterized by red scaly plaques. It has a genetic component and can be triggered by various environmental factors. Clinical diagnosis is usually based on appearance of lesions. Topical therapies are first-line treatment for mild-moderate disease, while phototherapy and systemic therapies may be used for more severe cases. Proper management requires a tailored approach based on individual disease characteristics and goals of improving quality of life and long-term disease control.

Acne
Acne vulgaris is a disorder of the pilosebaceous unit caused by increased sebum production, follicular hyperkeratinization, and bacterial colonization. It manifests as comedones, papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts. Treatment involves addressing underlying causes with topical retinoids, antibiotics, and oral antibiotics which reduce inflammation and P. acnes levels. For severe nodular cystic acne, oral isotretinoin is used which decreases sebum production and has anti-inflammatory effects.
Skin manifestation of systemic disease
The document discusses various skin manifestations that can indicate underlying systemic diseases, including several paraneoplastic syndromes, endocrine diseases like diabetes and thyroid disorders, and rheumatological conditions. Specific conditions mentioned include acquired ichthyosis, acrokeratosis paraneoplastica, alopecia neoplastica associated with various cancers, pretibial myxedema in Graves' disease, necrobiosis lipoidica and scleredema diabeticorum in diabetes, and dermatomyositis which can indicate ovarian cancer. Treatment options are provided for some conditions.

Eczema Powerpoint
Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is caused by other diseases, irritating substances, allergies and genetic makeup. It is most common in children under three years old and those with a family history of asthma or hay fever. Symptoms include oozing blisters, dry leathery skin, intense itching and rashes, which can sometimes lead to bacterial infections or scarring. Treatments include moisturizers, mild soaps, wet dressings, anti-itch lotions and topical corticosteroids.
Eczema
Eczema is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by dry, itchy, scaly, and sometimes infected skin. The underlying cause is a defective skin barrier that allows too much moisture to escape, resulting in dryness. Proper treatment involves frequent use of emollients to restore the skin barrier, along with intermittent use of topical corticosteroids when flare-ups occur. Patient education is important to ensure correct application of treatments and avoidance of exacerbating factors.

Lect 2 integumentary system
The skin is the body's largest organ and acts as a protective barrier. It has several important functions, including regulating body temperature, preventing fluid loss, producing vitamin D, and acting as an immune barrier against pathogens. The skin is composed of three layers - the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue. It contains structures like hair, nails, and glands that produce sweat and oil.
