Aging skin and natural bioactives that impede cutaneous aging: A narrative review
Indian Journal of Dermatology 2023 68(4):414-424
The skin aging which entails modifications in the entire skin and skin support system is caused as a result of complex blend of intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The main objective of this review is to provide critical insights into the effect of the aging determinants (intrinsic and extrinsic) on aging skin and to focus on a few classes of natural bioactives that were reported to counteract symptoms of cutaneous aging, pose potential, and beneficial health effect on aging skin supported with relevant scientific evidence. The narrative review of this cutaneous antiaging stud...

A study of miRNA 223 expression and its correlation with disease severity in chronic plaque psoriasis
Conclusion: Expression of miRNA 223 was higher in psoriatic patients than in controls and the expression increased with the severity and activity of the disease suggesting the upregulation of miRNA 223 with the progression and activity of the disease. (Source: Indian Journal of Dermatology)

Evaluation of dermatology life quality index, depression-anxiety-stress scores of patients with genital dermatoses
Conclusion: The quality of life of patients with genital dermatoses is often poor, with significant levels of depression, anxiety and stress. We believe that screening these patients with DLQI and DASS-21 scores at their first admission and follow-up will benefit dermatologists and patients. (Source: Indian Journal of Dermatology)

Interleukin levels and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in chronic plaque psoriasis: An analytical case control study
Conclusion: Significantly increased interleukin levels and their weak positive correlation with the severity of psoriasis (PASI, BSA) in patients of chronic plaque psoriasis explains the possible role of inflammation in the causation of psoriasis. Screening may be considered in psoriatic patients with increasing duration of psoriasis, high WC, high BSA involved, high BMI, obesity, dyslipidemia and insulin resistance. Limitations: Small sample size. Conflict of Intrest: NONE. (Source: Indian Journal of Dermatology)

Desnutrin as a biomarker for insulin resistance in patients with vitiligo vulgaris
Conclusion: This study concluded that in patients with vitiligo vulgaris, as a result of increased serum levels of glucose and insulin, the serum desnutrin was suppressed, perhaps contributing to hyperlipidaemia and IR. So, low serum desnutrin could be a biomarker for IR in patients with vitiligo vulgaris. A multidisciplinary approach is essential for the early detection of diabetes mellitus, IR and hyperlipidemia among patients with vitiligo vulgaris to avoid cardiovascular and metabolic complications.
