“…Neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) lasers use a crystal containing neodymium ions to emit a beam of light at a wavelength of 1064 nm. The Nd:YAG laser beams penetrate the nail plate and heat up the fungal material, causing cellular damage and death of the fungus [ 21 ]. Further discussion of these types of and other non-ablative lasers is beyond the scope of this review.…”

The purpose of this review is to consolidate and summarize laser-assisted drug delivery (LADD) for nail diseases, particularly onychomycosis and psoriasis. A PubMed search was conducted in June 2023 using search terms (1) “laser assisted drug delivery” AND “nail,” (2) “laser” AND “nail,” and (3) “nail disorder” AND “laser treatment.” References of papers were also reviewed, yielding 15 papers for this review. Fractional ablative CO2 laser (FACL) and Er:YAG laser can be used for LADD of topical medications such as amorolfine, terbinafine, and tioconazole to treat onychomycosis. A fungal culture should be performed to determine the type of dermatophyte, which will help determine which topical will be most effective. Laser settings varied between studies, but overall LADD tended to be more effective than topical treatments alone. Laser-assisted photodynamic therapy (PDT) was also found to be effective in treating onychomycosis. For psoriatic nails, LADD was used to deliver calcipotriol-betamethasone dipropionate foam, tazarotene, triamcinolone, or methotrexate into the nail. Again, LADD was found to be significantly more effective than topical treatment alone. FACL was the only laser noted for use for LADD in both diseases. Laser-assisted drug delivery for nail disease is a newer approach for onychomycosis and nail psoriasis with several benefits and drawbacks. Dermatologists should discuss the option of LADD with their patients who have recalcitrant onychomycosis or nail psoriasis.

Extensive research suggested that the core of how to use pesticides scientifically is the careful and accurate determination of the severity of crop diseases. The existing grading standards of plant leaf diseases have been excessively singular. Thus, the diseases roughly fall into general and severe grades. To address the above problems, this study considered the effect of the distribution of disease spots, and two evaluation indicators (termed the imbalance degree and main vein distance) were newly added to optimize the grading criteria of apple leaf diseases. Combined with other factors, the grade evaluation indicator was determined through PCA principal component analysis. A gradual multivariate logistic regression algorithm was proposed to evaluate apple leaf disease grade and an optimized apple leaf disease grade evaluation model was built through PCA-logistic regression analysis. In addition, three common apple leaf diseases with a total of 4500 pictures (i.e., black rot, scab, and rust) were selected from several open-source datasets as the subjects of this paper. The object detection algorithm was then used to verify the effectiveness of the new model. As indicated by the results, it can be seen from the loss curve that the loss rate reaches a stable range of around 70 at the epoch. Compared with Faster R-CNN, the average accuracy of Mask R-CNN for the type and grade recognition of apple leaf disease was optimized by 4.91%, and the average recall rate was increased by 5.19%. The average accuracy of the optimized apple leaf disease grade evaluation model was 90.12%, marking an overall increase of 20.48%. Thus, the effectiveness of the new model was confirmed.

Purpose of Review Machine learning (ML), a subset of artificial intelligence (AI), has been vital in advancing tasks such as image classification and speech recognition. Its integration into clinical medicine, particularly dermatology, offers a significant leap in healthcare delivery. Recent Findings This review examines the impact of ML on psoriasis—a condition heavily reliant on visual assessments for diagnosis and treatment. The review highlights five areas where ML is reshaping psoriasis care: diagnosis of psoriasis through clinical and dermoscopic images, skin severity quantification, psoriasis biomarker identification, precision medicine enhancement, and AI-driven education strategies. These advancements promise to improve patient outcomes, especially in regions lacking specialist care. However, the success of AI in dermatology hinges on dermatologists’ oversight to ensure that ML’s potential is fully realized in patient care, preserving the essential human element in medicine. Summary This collaboration between AI and human expertise could define the future of dermatological treatments, making personalized care more accessible and precise.
