Background/objective: Growing evidence highlights the role of physiological lipids, namely ceramides, cholesterol, and free fatty acids, in maintaining skin barrier function and preventing atopic dermatitis (AD). Current evidence on the efficacy, safety, and clinical relevance of stratum corneum (SC) lipid-based therapies to prevent AD and increase skin barrier integrity in high-risk infants was reviewed and synthesized.

Methods: Searches with key words lipid-based therapy, atopic dermatitis, infant, and prevention were conducted to identify papers using PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases from January 2000 to June 2024.

Post-traumatic lower-limb amputation: Indications, techniques and results.

Orthop Traumatol Surg Res

August 2025

Hôpital National d'Instruction des Armées Percy, Service d'Orthopédie, Traumatologie et Chirurgie Réparatrice des Membres, 101 Avenue Henri Barbusse, 92140 Clamart, France.

This study presents a review of traumatic lower-limb amputation, addressing 6 questions. (1) In what circumstances is amputation necessary in traumatology? (2) Are scores and results analyses contributive to decision-making for emergency amputation? Amputation can be primary, when directly caused by the trauma, salvage if limb conservation would be life-threatening, a necessity if functional prognosis is poor, or else necessitated by a mass-casualty context. Score systems and results analysis can help identify patients who would benefit from amputation or salvage, but applications are controversial, and the surgeon's expertise is a determining factor for treatment option in emergency settings.
