We report a case of a 44-year-old woman with an 8-year history of gnatophyma. Rosacea is a facial dermatosis that may present as flushing, erythema, telangiectases, papules, pustules and phyma. Phyma is considered the final evolution stage of rosacea and is a rare variant. Treatment of phyma with atypical localization may be a challenge for dermatologists in clinical practice.

    Donepezil significantly increased ratings of vigour and anxiety symptoms (medium effect sizes). No changes in bodily symptoms or BDNF were observed. Acute donepezil administration in participants with unaltered cholinergic and dopaminergic tone led to positive and negative changes in affect. These r...

    We studied whether long-term administration of the DPP4i Sitagliptin (SITA) affects 1,2-dimethylhdrazine (DMH)-induced colon carcinogenesis. Male F344 rats fed a high-fat (HF) diet promoting colon carcinogenesis and IR, were induced with DMH (100 mg/kg x 2 times). One week later, animals were alloca...

    We aimed to map earliness per se quantitative trait loci (QTLs) affecting days to flowering and maturity in a population developed by crossing two spring wheat cultivars, Cutler and AC Barrie. The population of 177 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) was genotyped for a total of 488 SSR and DArT polymor...
