Effect of prenatal high-dose vitamin D on childhood atopic dermatitis is modified by maternal cotinine metabolome: A secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial
Skin Barrier Science 1 min.
Tobacco exposure has been shown to modulate the effect of vitamin D on the risk of atopic diseases. However, randomized clinical trials investigating the potential effect modification between tobacco exposure and vitamin D supplementation on atopic disease risk are lacking. We sought to investigate the...
Comparative efficacy of 1064 nm Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser and microneedling in treating atrophic acne scars: a retrospective study
Skin Barrier Science 1 min.
Acne scars, stemming from collagen irregularities in acne vulgaris, pose psychosocial challenges. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of 1064 nm Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (QSNL) and microneedling for atrophic acne scars.

Cardiomyocyte derived extracellular mitochondria in activation of macrophages during oxidative stress
Skin Barrier Science 1 min.
Mitochondria serve as central hubs for aerobic metabolism and regulators of cell fate. Damage to mitochondria induced by oxidative stress contributes to cardiac injury. We investigate whether oxidative stress causes the release of mitochondria into the extracellular space and whether these extracellular...
