Abstract
Background: Onychoscopy is a noninvasive method helpful in diagnosing nail disorders. The aim of the study was to review literature on the usability of onychoscopy in nail psoriasis, nail lichen planus, and nail lichen striatus. Summary: Onychoscopic features of nail psoriasis are pitting, onycholysis with erythematous border, salmon patches, splinter hemorrhages, dotted vessels in lateral and proximal folds, and hyponychium. Onychoscopic features of nail lichen planus are onychorrhexis, onycholysis, longitudinal melanonychia, and red lunula. The literature on the usability of onychoscopy in nail lichen striatus is scarce. Keynotes: Onychoscopy facilitates evaluation of nail abnormalities compared to the clinical examination. Lunular alterations, salmon patches, erythematous border of onycholysis as well as splinter hemorrhages in nail psoriasis are better visualized with onychoscopy compared to the naked eye. Onychoscopy enhances detection of melanonychia, dyschromia, and lunular changes in nail lichen planus. Onychoscopic features are different in fingernails and toenails.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
