Ethnocultural Features of Culture Game Elements

The attention to influences of specifically ethnic cultures on the forms and the maintenance of games is given in article. The problem of an interethnic exchange of game’s practices and updating of these practices in other ethnocultural context is put. So we brought the Soviet power tried to take under control the traditional folk festivals, amusement and games approved on the territory of the Russian Empire, carrying out so-called Cultural Revolution. First of all, the government has sought to impose a ban on the games, which is in one form or another, and were related to the religious life of the people. Soviet power, therefore, sought to maximize ideologies game and force them to serve the regime. DOI: 10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n1s2p

Late-Onset Eccrine Angiomatous Hamartoma Associated with a Ganglion Cyst on the Sole of the Foot

Eccrine angiomatous hamartoma (EAH) is a benign, uncommon, combined vascular and eccrine malformation. Most cases of this disorder have been single or multiple nodules or plaques that appear red, yellow, blue, violaceous, or skin colored. EAH may be congenital or appear later in childhood; it rarely arises during puberty or adulthood. A 52-year-old female patient visited our department for tender subcutaneous cystic tumor on the right sole with a one month history. Histopathologic examination confirmed EAH. During excisional biopsy procedure, mucinous discharges were observed which were histopathologically diagnosed as ganglion

Practice Guidelines for Teledermatology

Previous American Telemedicine Association (ATA) Teledermatology Practice Guidelines were issued in 2007. This updated version reflects new knowledge in the field, new technologies, and the need to incorporate teledermatology practice in a variety of settings, including hospitals, urgent care centers, Federally Qualified Health Centers, school-based clinics, public health facilities, and patient homes.Peer Reviewedhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/140294/1/tmj.2016.0137.pd

Dermatomyositis: Practical Guidance and Unmet Needs

An accurate diagnosis of dermatomyositis requires correlating clinical examination findings with serological and histological findings. Familiarity with pathognomonic and common cutaneous manifestations of dermatomyositis, which are highlighted here, can be especially helpful in making an accurate diagnosis. Additionally, evaluating patients for presence of myositis-specific autoantibodies can further support or refute a dermatomyositis diagnosis. When present, myositis-specific autoantibodies can also help guide workups for various dermatomyositis-associated manifestations, as each is associated with relatively distinct clinical characteristics. Evaluating patients for various systemic manifestations often relies on expert opinion recommendations; however, societal guideline statements concerning the evaluation of some manifestations have recently been described. Although malignancy-associated dermatomyositis is a well-accepted subtype, there is limited evidence to support extensive malignancy screening has a favorable benefit–risk ratio in most dermatomyositis patients. However, recent research has uncovered novel associations between dermatomyositis and malignancy, suggesting the possibility of identifying high-risk subsets of dermatomyositis patients in whom malignancy screening may have a high value. Treatment for dermatomyositis has remained largely unchanged over the past several decades. Although many dermatomyositis patients can be effectively treated with current options, either as monotherapy or with combination regimens, there is a need for more targeted and effective DM therapies, in general, and for MDA5(+) dermatomyositis-associated rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease. Fortunately, significant current and emerging research activities evaluating various novel medications for dermatomyositis provide hope for exciting future advances in patients with this intriguing immune-mediated disease.Keywords: idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, myositis, autoantibody, malignancy, MDA-5, treatmen

A unique case of chronic myeloid leukemia presenting as monocular vision loss with unilateral retinopathy

Purpose: To report a case of unilateral leukemic retinopathy secondary to chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Observations: Patient presented to clinic with a visual acuity (VA) of 20/200 in the right eye (OD) after several months of progressive monocular vision loss and was found to have dense pre-retinal hemorrhage. Patient underwent 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy to clear the preretinal hemorrhage along with a complex macula-off retinal detachment repair to address retinal tear and multilayer retinal hemorrhage. The patient was subsequently diagnosed with CML as she was found to be positive for the fusion protein of break point cluster gene (BCR) with Abelson tyrosine kinase (ABL1), BCR-ABL1, upon systemic work-up. Imatinib therapy resulted in complete hematologic and cytogenetic resolution after one month, however, the patient's vision remained unchanged six months after surgery. Conclusion and importance: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of unilateral leukemic retinopathy secondary to low risk CML, as determined by the Sokal and Hasford prognostic scoring systems. CML should be included in the differential diagnosis of patients with progressive monocular vision loss with suspicious multi-layer retinal compromise.
