Drug delivery by topical route for the treatment of onychomycosis, a nail fungal infection, is challenging due to the unique barrier properties of the nail plate which imparts high resistance to the passage of antifungal drugs. Permeation enhancers are used
Diabetic wounds remain a major medical challenge with often disappointing outcomes despite the best available care. An impaired response to tissue hypoxia and insufficient angiogenesis are major factors responsible for poor healing in diabetic wounds. Here we show that the

Computerized nail planimetry is an objective means of accurately assessing affected nail areas, versus the standard visual estimation method. However, no published comparison of visual assessment with planimetry is currently available on onychomycosis to support this recommendation. This article evaluates

In a previous study a new hydrosoluble nail lacquer (P-3051) containing 8% ciclopirox (CPX) showed higher nail penetration compared to a water-insoluble 5% amorolfine (MRF) lacquer. To our knowledge, in vivo human data on a similar topic are not available.

Topical therapy has recently been proposed for treating onychomycosis and other nail disturbances. However, the clinical outcome may be limited by the difficulty of active ingredients effectively penetrating the nail plate. Bovine hoof membranes have been widely used to predict
