Background Skin erythema may present due to many causes. One of the common causes is
prolonged exposure to sun rays. Other than sun exposure, skin erythema is an …

Background: Hyaluronic acid (HA), a large glycosaminoglycan involved in proliferation,
migration, and tissue repair, is suggested to be an important factor for keratinocyte activation …

Pathergy is the term used to describe hyper-reactivity of the skin that occurs in response to
minimal trauma. A positive skin pathergy test (SPT), characterised by erythematous …

Plastic surgery has a long history of innovation expanding the conditions we can treat, and
microsurgical reconstruction has played a pivotal role. Freestyle free flaps now create …

Introduction Microvascular changes in the skin due to pharmacological and physiological
provocations can be used as a marker for vascular function. While laser Doppler flowmetry …
