The article presents clinical observation of a rare variant of scarring alopecia - pseudopelade Brock. The presented case demonstrates the important role of detailed examination and close attention to patients with long-term foci of hair loss in the absence of positive dynamics from the therapy, maintaining clinical alertness and conducting a broad differential diagnostic search to exclude rare dermatoses, and also confirms the need for histological examination of skin biopsies to verify the diagnosis.

SUMMARYClassical studies of non-immune individuals infected with Plasmodium falciparum reveal that the infection may be regulated for long periods at a relatively stable parasite density, despite the enormous growth potential of a parasite that continually replicates within host erythrocytes. This suggests that the parasite population may be controlled by density-dependent mechanisms, and in theory the most obvious of these is competition between parasites for host erythrocytes. Here we evaluate the role of this mechanism in the regulation of parasitaemia, by modelling the basic population interaction between parasites and erythrocytes in a form that allows all the essential parameters to be estimated from clinical data. Our results show that competition cannot account for the total regulation of P. falciparum, but when combined with immune mechanisms it may play a more important role than is generally supposed. Further analysis of the model indicates that in the long term, parasite replication at low parasite densities can contribute significantly to the high degree of anaemia observed in natural infection, a conclusion which is not obvious from simple clinical observation.

Hair is crowning glory and mark of identity of human being. Indralupata in modern science correlate with alopecia aereata. It is characterized by localised areas of non-scarring hair loss which can be co-related with indralupta. Due to side effects and limitation of contemporary science, some harmless and effective medicines are expected from alternative medical science. indralupta disease is described under heading of kshudraroga by sushruta, vagbhata etc.in modern science its main treatment is corticosteroids which is having harmful side effects and not advisable for long term use.so it is necessary to find better remedies .it can be easily fulfilled by Ayurveda. Here, a case of female patient suffering from indralupta was successfully treated with jaluaka and haridra and nimbalepa. Keywords: kshudraroga, indralupta, jaluaka, haridra and nimbalepa

The literature review of the cellular functioning mechanisms of the hair follicles, the role of stem cells in the life cycle of the hair, the major effects of growth factors are presented. Authors, patented treatment method of non scarring alopecia is described. The technology ofpreparation and method of use of unactivated platelet leukocyte autoplasma in various forms of alopecia are described. Own clinical observation of 60 patients with non scarring alopecia and results of their unactivated platelet leukocyte autoplasma are presented. 80% of patients had a clinical cure. Investigations of platelet concentration, white blood cells and growth factors in platelet-rich plasma and platelet leukocyte unactivated autoplasma were performed. The results are shown in the article.

Congenital Tracheoesophageal Fistula

Between 1970 and 1979 152 infants born with the anomaly of esophageal atresia with or without tracheoesophageal fistula or of congenital tracheoesophageal fistula without atresia were treated at the Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children, Sydney. Recent developments in endoscopic equipment and new techniques of anesthesia allow detailed examination of the respiratory tract and esophagus with minimum trauma and maximum safety. Symptomatology relating to the airway and to the esophagus after surgical repair often occurs in patients who may have tracheomalacia, esophageal anastomotic stricture, esophageal reflux and sometimes recurrent or residual fistula. A definite diagnosis of tracheomalacia can be made by finding the typical triad of anteroposterior narrowing of the tracheal lumen, weakening of the semicircular-shaped cartilages and forward ballooning of the widened posterior membranous tracheal wall. Careful examination of the trachea and esophagus allows identification of an elusive recurrent fistula or an H-type fistula. As the primary results of surgery for esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula improve, long-term problems are becoming increasingly important. The role of the pediatric endoscopist is vital in the care of these patients.

Hair Transplant

AbstractAlopecia in the scalp region leads to psychosocial embarrassment for an individual. Alopecia could be due to several reasons, including genetic, hormonal, traumatic and infections. Cicatricial alopecias (CAs) are considered as trichological emergency, since their progression is rapid and always results in permanent hair loss. The pathogenesis, disease progression and prognosis of CA are poorly understood, and the treatment process is still evolving. An early diagnosis must be established, and aggressive treatment protocol should be followed in the management of scarring alopecia. This article presents various aspects of CA and determines whether hair transplant (HT) should be done in this condition.

AbstractMucous membrane pemphigoid was diagnosed in a 2.5-year-old male intact foxhound-beagle cross which was presented with an acute onset of non-pruritic, multifocal, slowly progressive erosive-ulcerative dermatitis predominantly affecting the nasal planum, eyelids and muzzle with multiple vesicles on the inner pinnae, oral mucosa and tongue. The diagnosis was based on clinical signs and histological examination of skin biopsies. The patient did not respond to immunosuppressive prednisolone therapy, but went into complete remission with oral doxycycline and niacinamide and stayed in remission on long-term exclusive niacinamide treatment.
