Too Many Moles

Morphologic Features and Natural History of Scalp Nevi in Children

“…Participants with scalp nevi with characteristic color distributions had a trend toward higher mean total-body nevus counts, supporting claims that these lesions are markers for children who are destined to become "moley." 34 We also found that boys had higher mean scalp and totalbody nevus counts, agreeing with previous studies. [35][36][37][38] The development of scalp nevi in childhood may be a marker for higher-than-average total-body nevus counts.…”

Association between IL-17F, IL-17RA Gene Polymorphisms and Response to Biological Drugs in Psoriasis and Beyond

“…Obesity is linked to a higher grade of systemic inflammation; adipocytes are involved in the production of IL-6, which contributes to the differentiation of T lymphocytes into the Th17 subtype [50]. The most important IL-17-producing cells are Th17 [51], thus explaining the elevated levels of IL-17 in obese patients [50]. Regarding our mentioned associations, we did not find any similar reports in the literature; however, our results should be confirmed in larger sample size groups.…”

Multippel erythema migrans, borrelialymfocytom og nevroborreliose hos eit barn

“…Eit lymfocytom er ein benign, reaktiv, lymfoid hyperplasi som kan oppstå av ulike årsaker, mellom anna borreliainfeksjon (4). Borrelialymfocytom er kjenneteikna av ein hard, intradermal, raudblå nodulus, som oftast på øyreflipp hos barn og brystvorte hos vaksne, men det kan også utvikle seg på genitalia, thorax og ekstremitetar (3,4). Histologisk liknar det på arkitekturen i ein lymfeknute (4).…”
