A New Method of Treating Leucoderma
نویسندگان
چکیده
derma is mainly empirical and is rarely attended by satisfactory results. Many years of experience of treating hundreds of cases at the Calcutta School of Tropical Medicine has led us to place our faith in external application of the oil extracted from the seeds of Psoralia corylijolia and known as bouchi oil, together with internal administration of intestinal antiseptics, but although persistence in this form of treatment is occasionally rewarded with success, partial or total failure has much more often been the final result. Recently, we have carried out a number of experimental treatments in which the oil has been injected intradermally instead of being rubbed on the skin, and our results have been so good that this short note is being published to draw the attention of other workers to this method. It is felt, however, that there is still much room for improvement in

Spectacle frame induced chemical leucoderma: A case report
Chemical leucoderma is an acquired hypopigmented dermatosis caused by repeated exposure to specific chemical compounds, notably the aromatic or aliphatic derivatives of phenols andcatechols which are commonly present in the rubber and plastic materials. Herein, we report a case of chemical leucoderma in a 55-year-old male, appearing bilaterally over the retroauricular areas, which appeared afte...
متن کاملNotes on a Case of Leucoderma
By Assistant Surgeon A. "Wood, M.D. Reading somewhere, a short time ago, an article on the diagnosis between white leprosy and leucoderma, which then greatly interested me, I was soon afterwards gratified by having to treat a case of the latter, so well marked, as perhaps to justify my offering a few remarks thereon, in the hope that they may prove as acceptable to others, as the actual observa...
متن کاملA posteriori $ L^2(L^2)$-error estimates with the new version of streamline diffusion method for the wave equation
In this article, we study the new streamline diffusion finite element for treating the linear second order hyperbolic initial-boundary value problem. We prove a posteriori $ L^2(L^2)$ and error estimates for this method under minimal regularity hypothesis. Test problem of an application of the wave equation in the laser is presented to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the method.
متن کاملO22: Principles of Treatment in Neuro-Inflammation Disorders
Treating Central Nervous System (CNS) neuro-inflammational disorders is of great importance. A key aspect of this treatment includes regulation of Cell-Mediated and humoral immune systems. Previous treatment mostly consisted of systemic immunosuppressive drugs. In addition to having adverse side effects, these drugs were also inefficient, such as methotrexate- Cyclophosphamide-Azathioprine. Rec...
