HCA-NSU MD Research Day
Skin Manifestations in People with Hepatitis C Authors: Erjola Toska, OMS-III, Cameron Minars, OMS-II, Suzanne Riskin, M.D. Objectives: This study is aimed to summarize the association between hepatitis C infection and dermatological manifestations from the past decade. Background: Hepatitis C is a growing global health concern, with rising incidence rates and an increased likelihood of extrahepatic manifestations, including dermatological conditions. Despite research into the connection between hepatitis C and skin disorders, there is a lack of comprehensive reviews on this subject. Methods: Four databases—PubMed (NLM), EMBASE, CINAHL, and Web of Science—were searched for peer-reviewed articles written in English, focusing on …
Examining The Efficacy Of Treatments For Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, Michael Podcasy

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a disease that affects the sensory, motor, sudomotor, vasomotor and trophic systems of patients. The pathophysiology is currently unknown and the diagnostic criteria that is used, the Budapest criteria, has its own shortcomings. This had led to hurdles in the research of the disease and well as a lack of high-quality studies on the efficacy of the many treatments currently being used to treat CRPS today. This poster explores those concepts.

•Fournier’s gangrene is a rare manifestation of the already sparse skin infection known as necrotizing fasciitis, specifically of the scrotal and perineal region. This case illustrates a patient in the emergency department with a severe necrotizing skin infection who quickly progressed to sepsis and multiorgan damage. It is important to understand the common presentation, complications, and ideal management of patients with necrotizing fasciitis.

Smoothened receptor (SMO) is a protein that in humans, is encoded by the SMO gene. A systemic mutation in its binding pocket helps predict the sensitivity of mutant proteins to different drugs. Known as a GPCR-like receptor, it is a component of the hedgehog signaling pathway; a pathway involved in body patterning and the regulation of adult stem cells. An uncontrolled or inappropriate activation of the Hedgehog pathway drives tumor progression in cancers and a number of birth defects. To achieve these goals, the molecular modeling software MOE was used to build small molecules and drug molecules like Vismodegib and …
