research How Should Educators and Publishers Eliminate Racial Essentialism?
Educators and publishers should focus on teaching racism as the cause of health inequity and ensure fair use of race in materials.
research Does tachyphylaxis occur in long‐term management of scalp seborrheic dermatitis with pyrithione zinc‐based treatments?
Long-term use of pyrithione zinc shampoos remains effective for scalp seborrheic dermatitis, with decreased effectiveness likely due to not following treatment instructions rather than the treatment itself.
