This document discusses common skin problems - prickly heat, wrinkles, and body odor. It provides details on the causes, symptoms, and treatments for each issue. Prickly heat, also known as miliaria or heat rash, is caused by blocked sweat ducts and is common in hot, humid conditions. Wrinkles are folds in the skin that develop due to aging and repeated damage to elastic fibers. Body odor occurs when bacteria on the skin break down sweat into acids, and can be influenced by factors like diet, health conditions, and bacterial activity. The document outlines treatments for each problem such as soothing creams, exfoliation, and changes to hygiene routines or diet.
Acne is a dermatological problem affected by an estimated 65 million people worldwide. This presentation is based on the changes on the skin in relation to the problem 'acne'.
This document discusses various skin conditions and disorders. It begins by defining dermatosis as a skin disorder characterized by lesions or eruptions. It then discusses specific conditions like leukoderma/vitiligo, which causes pale or white spots on the skin due to loss of pigment called melanin. Melanocytes, which produce melanin and give skin its color, are located in the bottom layer of the epidermis. Failure of melanocytes can result in diseases like piebaldism or Waardenburg syndrome. The document also covers paraonychia, an inflammation around the nail bed that is common in occupations involving water exposure.

Prickly heat is a common rash caused by trapped sweat under the skin, typically occurring in areas exposed to heat and humidity. It causes tiny red bumps and an itchy, stinging sensation. Prickly heat is often triggered by prolonged exposure to warm temperatures and humidity. Simple treatments like calamine lotion, cool baths, and loose, breathable clothing can help relieve symptoms, which usually clear up on their own within a few days. Children are more susceptible due to less developed sweat glands. Preventing sweat from becoming trapped by avoiding heavy creams and washing sweat away can help reduce the risk of prickly heat. A doctor visit may be needed if the rash persists or becomes infected.

Eczema (Dermatitis)-
A particular type of inflammatory reaction of the skin in which there is erythema (reddening), edema (swelling), papules (bumps), and crusting of the skin followed, finally, by lichenification (thickening) and scaling of the skin.

What Causes eczema?
Allergy- One of the commonest cause of Eczema. Triggers include Dust, detergents, rubber, nickel plated jewelry etc.
Environment- More likely in urban areas due to high pollution levels. Extremely dry or cold weather tends to make skin scratchy, resulting in eczema.
Obesity- Obese children are 3 times more likely to get eczema. Obesity results in inflammation of fat tissues that spills into other parts of the body. Excess fat also results in poor circulation and skin ailments.
Smoking- One of the leading causes, especially on the fingers that hold the cigarettes, as well as lips.
Stress- Physical or emotional stress has been known to cause enhanced sensitivity and inflammatory skin changes.
Diaper rash- In babies eczema occurs because of chemical effect of urine/faeces on sensitive skin.
Genetic influence- More likely in individuals with a family history of Eczema or other allergic conditions like Asthma, Hay fever, etc.

The epidermis is the outermost layer and contains keratinized cells that protect the body. Below this is the dermis containing sweat glands, hair follicles, oil glands and connective tissue. The deepest layer is the subcutaneous layer consisting of fat. In addition to protection, the skin regulates temperature, produces vitamin D, senses touch, and aids in healing when injured. Hair, nails and glands located in the skin also have important functions. Common skin conditions include acne, athlete's foot, burns, dermatitis, psoriasis, skin

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

barrier to infection from
environmental pathogens and
regulates the amount of water
released from the body into the
atmosphere through
transepidermal water loss.
