Nas últimas semanas, a internet entrou em peso na brincadeira do #10yearschallenge, ou ‘desafio dos 10 anos’. As redes sociais foram tomadas por montagens com fotos de 2009 e 2019, em que os internautas mostravam as diferenças e evoluções que tiveram ao longo de 10 anos. Um dos pontos que mais chamou atenção das pessoas foi o envelhecimento (ou não) depois de tanto tempo. A cantora Sandy, por exemplo, participou da brincadeira e postou uma foto da própria mãe, ironizando os comentários de que nunca envelhece. Entrando na onda do desafio dos 10 anos, a equipe do E+ conversou com o dermatolog...

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are steadily growing in popularity throughout medicine, particularly in dermatology. And, as they become more prevalent, they are beginning to change how providers offer care on a day-to-day basis.

And, that’s valuable, said Maryam Sadeghi, chief executive officer of DermEngine, a dermatology software and workflow improvement company, because the specialty includes more than 2,000 indi...

The skin is the largest organ in the body and is affected in most scleroderma patients. At the time of my diffuse scleroderma diagnosis in 1997, I had extremely tight skin across my chest, arms, hands, face, legs — all over my body. My hands and fingers were puffy with painful joints and tight, itchy, shiny skin. I was unable to make a fist and could not remove bottle tops or jar lids, plus I had other symptoms like joint pain, gastrointestinal pain, lethargy, and fatigue. My Raynaud’s symptoms developed later. I was given a 15-month prognosis at the time of my initial diagnosis due to ...
