Radiation induced skin reactions (RISR) are a common adverse effect of radiotherapy that can impact on patient quality of life. The aim of this systematic review was to identify new research evidence on interventions for RISR to guide health practitioners on best practice skin care for people ...
UV radiation (UV) is classified as a ―complete carcinogen ‖ because it is both a mutagen and a non-specific damaging agent and has properties of both a tumor initiator and a tumor promoter. In environmental abundance, UV is the most important modifiable risk factor for skin cancer and many...
Patients with diabetes and/or other special factors (radiation damage and burns) that affect wound healing. (4) Patients who are under acute perianal sepsis conditions. (5) Patients with abnormal anal morphology and function. (6) Patients whose internal opening and tract are above the dental ...
We propose that, in the future, Melatonin would improve the therapeutic ratio in radiation oncology and ameliorate skin damage more effectively when administered in optimal and non-toxic doses. 展开 关键词: Radiation , Melatonin , Radiotherapy , Skin Damage ...
Burn, damage caused to the body by contact with flames, hot substances, certain chemicals, radiation (sunlight, X rays, or ionizing radiation from radioactive materials), or electricity. The chief effects of contact with flame, hot water, steam, caustic
Gefitinib was inspected in phase II single-arm analysis (NCT00126555) in persons suffering from CSCC who were contenders for curative therapy, such as radiation or surgery. 13 patients (35%) had a stable illness at 8 weeks, with an overall response rate of 16%. The median response and prog...
Researchers have utilized 3D skin organoids derived from hiPSC-derived keratinocytes to study the impact of ionizing radiation (IR) exposure and DNA damage response [44]. The findings revealed a decrease in DNA damage response, including DNA repair activity, during differentiation. In another study,...
It is well known that a skin dose from high-energy x-ray radiation varies with the angle of beam incidence or the presence of a radiotherapy linear accelerator couch top material. This note investigates changes produced to the skin dose from a Varian carbon fibre grid couch top at differing ...
Ultraviolet Radiation and Lysosomes in Skin ERYTHEMA followed by scaling and increased pigmenta- tion develops in human skin which has been exposed to moderate doses of ultraviolet radiation. Oedema, blistering and necrosis may occur after higher doses, and © 1968 Nature Publishing Group ...
Surgical resection with postoperative radiation or adjuvant pharmacotherapies, radiation therapies, oral medications and laser-based therapies are also used to treat keloids [4,5,6]. In addition to corticosteroids, injectables also include 5-fluorouracil, botulinum toxin, verapamil, and avotermin. ...
