Introduction.Inhibitors of the epidermal growth factor receptor cause the heavy dermatological adverse events, which can be the cause of change of the scheme of treatment. Acneiform rash is connected with specific inflammation of hair follicles, its weight depends on a dose of medicine and correlates with the best response to therapy at various options of tumors, in this regard effective correction of this side effect is of particular importance.Materials and methods. There were 32 patients with acneiform rash for observation; they have been divided into 3 groups. All patients received system antibacterial therapy: doxycycline 100 mg 2 times a day 10 days and topical medicines for external therapy, various on the action mechanism (tacrolimus, metronidazole, betamethasone valerate in a combination with fusidic acid). Acne Dermatology Index and Dermatology Life Quality Index were used for assessment. The received results were assesed on each visit of the patient, the final point of observations was in 3 months.Results.The significant regression of rash in all groups was in the 1st week when patients accepted doxycycline per os. Further the weakest response to therapy has shown cream with tacrolimus, the patients using gel with metronidazole has shown bigger effect, the fastest regress of Acne Dermatology Index and Dermatology Life Quality Index was observed in the patients used the combined cream with betamethasone and fusidic acid.Conclusions.The antibacterial therapy by doxycycline 100 mg 2 times a day per os at early stages of development of acneiform rash at the I—II severity gives the expressed effect and prevents deterioration of the .skin process. The combined therapy of acneiform rash of the I—II degree including doxycycline with topical cream containing a betamethasone valerate 0.1 % and fusidic acid 20 % renders the fastest and expressed effect in comparison with other combinations: the doxycycline and cream containing tacrolimus; the doxycycline and gel containing metronidazole.

Abstract Background Vitiligo is a disease that causes the loss of skin color. The extent and rate of color loss from vitiligo is unpredictable. It can affect the skin on any part of your body. It may also affect hair and the inside of the mouth. Aim of the Work Aiming for treating localized stable vitiligo by a simple, old technique. This study was based on a minimal burn, insufficient to develop scar, might activate the repairing processes which would enhance in the same time the MCs proliferation. Patients and Methods The study was done on 30 patients presented with localized stable vitiligo. Superficial electrocautery was done every month for 4 months with application of daily closed wound care using combined fusidic acid and betamethasone valerate cream followed by herbal β sitosterol containing cream then occlusion with Vasline gauze for 10 days or till complete wound healing. Other patch in the same patient is treated only by the above mentioned topical treatment as a control. Results In our study of total 30 patients, 8 patients (27%) showed marked repigmentation after treatment, 16 patients (53%) showed moderate response and the remaining 6 patients (20%) showed mild or no response to treatment. Conclusion No significant side effects were noticed during the course of treatment. Just mild, transient erythema and burning sensation were detected.

The medicinal value of the plants is due to their chemical components that bring a definite physiological action on the human body to prevent the diseases. In this work, we investigated the antimicrobial activity of leaves’ extracts of Quercus robur L., collected from the Algerian upper highlands, on ten bacterial strains and one fungal strain known to be pathogenic. First, we performed a qualitative phytochemical analysis, and second, antimicrobial activity tests performed by agar diffusion method (disc and well) with the determination of MIC by broth macro-dilution method. Given the results, it appears that obtained macerates of Quercus robur L. were rich in bioactive phytoconstituents such as alkaloids, anthraquinones, saponins, tannins, and other components. The yield of aqueous and methanolic macerates of leaves was 8.5 ± 1.41 and 22.4 ± 4.36%, respectively. The bacterial resistance was relatively important to several antibiotics, namely, ampicillin, amoxicillin + clavulanic acid for strains of Escherichia coli and Salmonella sp. However, Staphylococcus aureus strains were resistant to fusidic acid, penicillin, and oxacillin; while Enterococcus faecalis was resistant to fusidic acid, penicillin, oxacillin, and ticarcillin. The antibacterial activity of the macerates toward tested microbial strains showed that the aqueous and methanolic macerates of the leaves were proportional to the tested concentration and active not only against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria but also on the fungal species Candida albicans. The estimated MIC for Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, and Staphylococcus aureus was in the order of 10 mg/mL, which seems more effective than toward Salmonella sp., Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans which were in the order of 30 mg/mL. These preliminary results confirm that the part of the studied plant had a very good antimicrobial activity that was proportional to the serial concentrations of the tested extracts.
