Abstract
Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease in which scaling and erythema occur on various
body parts, such as the scalp, eyebrows, nasolabial folds, and ears. Although it is a common skin disease, its
pathogenesis remains unclear. It has various causes, including microorganisms and immune and nervous system
abnormalities that act in a complex manner. The skin mycobiome/microbiome, an important factor in SD occurrence,
is being actively studied. Among the skin microorganisms related to SD, Malassezia and Cutibacterium have been
extensively studied. Recently, it was revealed that various microorganisms are related in several ways. The study
of changes in mycobiome/microbiome involves comparing types and abundances of microorganisms and degrees
of microbial diversity; patients and healthy individuals; the lesion and nonlesion areas; and affected body parts.
Several studies on the mycobiome/microbiome associated with SD have shown relatively consistent results; however,
some have revealed different outcomes. These variations occur because of differences in individuals, study groups,
and sampling/study methodology. Therefore, further research is needed for the application the results of these
studies in the treatment of SD.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of mycology and infection (Acronym: JMI, Abbreviation: J Mycol Infect) aims to publish articles of exceptional interests in the field of medical mycology. The journal originally was launched in 1996 as the Korean Journal of Medical Mycology and has reformed into the current state beginning on March of 2018. The contents of the journal should elucidate important microbiological fundamentals and provide qualitative insights to respective clinical aspects. JMI underlines the submission of novel findings and studies in clinical mycology that are enriched by analyses achieved through investigative methods. The journal should be of general interests to the scientific communities at large and should provide medical societies with advanced breadth and depth of mycological expertise. In addition, the journal supplements infectious diseases in adjunct to the field of mycology to address a well-rounded understanding of infectious disorders. The Journal of mycology and infection, which is issued quarterly, in March, June, September and December each year, published in English. The scope of the Journal of mycology and infection includes invited reviews, original articles, case reports, letter to the editor, and images in mycology. The journal is compliant to peer-review/open access and all articles undergo rigorous reviewing processes by our internationally acknowledged team of editorial boards. The articles directed to publication should encompass in-depth materials that employ scholastic values of mycology and various infectious diseases. Articles responding to critical methodology and outcomes which have potential to enhance better understanding of mycology and infectious diseases are also suitable for publication.
