Keloid Scar Resistance to Intralesional Steroid Injections: Should We Look for Foreign Bodies? A Case Report
Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol. 2023 Dec 21;16:3693-3697. doi: 10.2147/CCID.S443813. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTKeloid is a challenging pathological condition characterized by abnormal scarring that extends beyond the boundaries of the original wound. Despite the available treatment options, keloid scars remain difficult to manage. This case report discusses a 10-year-old boy with a keloid scar on his neck following branchial anomaly repair surgery.

The Influence of Interval Training Combined with Occlusion and Cooling on Selected Indicators of Blood, Muscle Metabolism and Oxidative Stress
CONCLUSIONS: Both interval training without and with the modifications used in the study influences coagulation and oxidative stress parameters and, to a small extent, muscle metabolism. It seems reasonable to use occlusion and local cryotherapy in combination with occlusion.PMID:38137705 | DOI:10.3390/jcm12247636 (Source: Atherosclerosis)

A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial of Vaginal Cryotherapy for the Treatment of Pelvic Floor Myofascial Pain
ConclusionsPelvic floor myofascial pain with palpation improved following both a single cryotherapy session and 2 weeks of daily cryotherapy. Interestingly, pain scores also improved with room temperature therapy. Whether these findings reflect a therapeutic effect of both cold and room temperature intravaginal therapy or a placebo effect is unclear but should be explored in larger studies.
