Sebum yang berada di kulit kepala merupakan nutrisi bagi Malassezia sp dan menjadi salah satu faktor risiko dari dermatitis seboroik. Keramas dapat membersihkan sebum dan kotoran dari kulit kepala. Setiap individu memiliki preferensi tersendiri mengenai frekuensi keramas. Tujuan: Studi ini dilakukan untuk melihat korelasi skor keparahan dermatitis seboroik dengan frekuensi keramas. Metode: Sejumlah 87 pasien dermatitis seboroik dengan metode consecutive sampling. Pasien dilakukan pemeriksaan untuk mengukur keparahan dermatitis seboroik yang diderita menggunakan diberikan kuesioner Seborrheic Dermatitis Area and Severity Index SDASI. Studi ini merupakan penelitian dengan metode potong lintang. Hasil: Median frekuensi keramas pada pasien DS adalah 3 kali seminggu 1,00-7,00 dan nilai median Skor Keparahan DS sebesar 2,25 0,25-21,00. Uji korelasi Spearman dilakukan dan didapatkan hasil tidak bermakna korelasi antara frekuensi keramas dengan skor keparahan DS P= 0,155, r= -0,154. Kesimpulan: Tidak terdapat korelasi antara frekuensi keramas dengan Skor Keparahan DS.

"Edited by Australia's first female dermatologist, with contributions from six others, Skin Wise: A Guide to Healthy Skin for Women covers every aspect of skin care from infancy to old age and offers sensible, practical advice about skin problems and what can be done to treat them. The seven authors are all practising dermatologists specializing in different fields of dermatology. They set out to moderate what they see as harmful and excessive expectations generated by some authors and the media. For instance, they place less emphasis on laser and cosmetic remedies than some of their competitors and they talk about the limitations of certain skin products and of ageing skin itself. They show women how to care for ordinary skin and how skin is altered by puberty, oral contraceptives, pregnancy, menopause and ageing. For the first time in a book of this kind there is a separate chapter on sexual health and genital dermatology. Skin Wise investigates hirsutism, hair loss, and other scalp conditions. A chapter for parents on paediatric dermatology offers advice on moles, psoriasis, sun protection, diet, acne, birthmarks, warts, nappy rash, alopecia and other conditions. There is a chapter on nail care and laser therapy. A further original feature of this book is a separate chapter on skin problems in the workplace. Here, then, in one book, is a succinct, commonsensical guide to every kind of skin problem and treatment for women."

"Latar belakang. Kulit kering merupakan keluhan yang sering dihadapi pasien kusta, akibat kerusakan saraf otonom atau terapi yang didapat.Tujuan. Membandingkan efikasi vaselin album dengan urea 10% sebagai terapi kulit kering pasien kusta.Metode. Uji klinis acak tersamar ganda. Subjek penelitian dibagi dua kelompok, yaitu kelompok urea 10% dan kelompok vaselin album. Evaluasi dilakukan dalam 2 dan 4 minggu terapi dengan mengukur transepidermal waterloss (TEWL) dan skor kulit kering (SRRC) pada tungkai bawah.Hasil. Sebanyak 48 subjek penelitian (SP) mengikuti penelitian, 24 SP mendapat vaselin album dan 24 SP mendapat krim urea 10%. Nilai TEWL pada kedua kelompok menurun secara bermakna sebelum dan sesudah terapi. Penurunan tidak berbeda bermakna antara kedua kelompok, (6,53 kelompok vaselin album versus 6,45 kelompok urea 10%). Skor SRRC menurun secara bermakna pada kedua kelompok sebelum dan sesudah terapi 2 dan 4 minggu. Penurunan skor SRRC tidak berbeda bermakna antara kedua kelompok, (2,5 dan 3,5 pada kelompok vaselin album versus 3 dan 3 pada kelompok urea).Kesimpulan. Kedua pelembab mampu menurunkan TEWL dan SRRC pasien kusta secara bermakna. Tetapi perubahan nilai tersebut tidak berbeda bermakna antara kelompok pengguna salap vaselin album ataupun krim urea 10%.
