Sir, Perioral dermatitis is an uncommon facial eruption of women and children presenting as tiny papules and pustules often in a perioral distribution.[1] It is now more correctly referred to as “periorificial dermatitis” as it frequently involves perinasal and periocular skin. Granulomatous periorificial dermatitis (GPD) is a distinct facial eruption in prepubertal children characterized by a ...

Etofenamate is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Clinical findings caused by etofenamate are uncommon. Allergic contact dermatitis is the most common cutaneous reaction reported. But petechial eruption due to etofenamate had not been reported yet. This report concerns an 11-year old male with petechial eruption after application of topical etofenamate. Physicians need to be aware ...

We use a ballistic model to simulate the particle number densities in plumes on Io as a function of eruption rates and particle size distributions. Comparison of the simulated apparent brightness variations within plumes with the properties of actual plumes allows constraints to be put on the particle sizes present and the eruption rates. We find evidence for lower eruption rates, by a factor o...

Midline diastema is a space between the central incisors. Although physiologic transitory maxillary midline diastema is observed in children during eruption of maxillary anterior teeth in most cases, it is self-corrected after eruption of maxillary canines. However, midline diastema unrelated to the eruption of teeth has been observed owing to various etiologic factors. Treatment to align the c...

Forced eruption can be performed in teeth with caries, fracture, resorption or perforation in the cervical third of the root or isolated teeth with one- or two-walled vertical periodontal defects. The purpose of this case report is to introduce an innovative orthodontic appliance which enables forced eruption. This appliance is easy to fabricate, cost-effective and very effective in forced erup...

[1] Infrasonic airwaves produced by active volcanoes provide valuable insight into the eruption dynamics. Because the infrasonic pressure field may be directly associated with the flux rate of gas released at a volcanic vent, infrasound also enhances the efficacy of volcanic hazard monitoring and continuous studies of conduit processes. Here we present new results from Erebus, Fuego, and Villar...

ISSN 0001-5555 Sir, Lichenoid drug eruption (LDE) following furosemide intake has been reported once in the literature (1). Several cases of bullous eruption (2) and generalized exanthematic pustulosis (3) caused by this drug have also been describ ed. We report here the case of a patient who d...

Deep-sea hydrothermal vents are subject to major disturbances that alter the physical and chemical environment and eradicate the resident faunal communities. Vent fields are isolated by uninhabitable deep seafloor, so recolonization via dispersal of planktonic larvae is critical for persistence of populations. We monitored colonization near 9°50'N on the East Pacific Rise following a catastroph...
