    Pathogenesis associated with hair follicle mites (Demodex spp.) in Australian Aborigines (1976)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    British journal of dermatology 94 (1976), S. 0

    Notes: Demodex folliculorum and D. brevis are found in different habitats in the skin: the former in the hair follicles, the latter in the sebaceous glands. Both seem minor pathogens—merely harvesting the cells of their respective habitats. D. folliculorum was found aggregated (all stages) and plugging the follicular orifices; D. brevis, on the other hand, was usually solitary. In one case marked degeneration of the sebaceous gland, with leukocyte invasion, was associated with D. brevis.No correlations were discovered between either of these species and the gross condition of the skin. Positive samples were obtained from both mainland and island populations of Aborigines. Incidence values obtained were 66.6% for males and 80% for females; in the latter, the sample was small (5) and their ages over 34 years.

    AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINES AND PSORIASIS (1984)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Australasian journal of dermatology 25 (1984), S. 0

    Notes: Psoriasis among full-blood Australian Aborigines appears to be rare or absent. After examination of some three thousand of these people in central, northern, and southern Australia, I have not seen psoriasis. Other medical and nursing observers have also not seen psoriasis in these people. Two references in the literature to psoriasis in Abotigines are reviewed briegly. The author has seen only one, male, part-Aborigine (more Causcasian than Aborigine), with in a female Aborigine whose father was said to be “not tribal”. A third was recently reported to me.Other conditions common among Aborigines, which should not be confused with psoriasis, are outlined, Certain aspects of the apparent absence of psoriasis in full-blood Australian Aborigines are discussed.Previous research about the essential causes of psoriasis has not been particularly rewarding. An important question must, therefore, be asked. Should some research projects in future be directed to reasons why some human groups seem not to get psoriasis rather than to why others do?

    AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINES AND THEIR DERMATOPHYTES (1977)

    Notes: In Australia, ringworm is common among Aborigines and, to a lesser extent, among other ethnic groups.So far, the dermatophytes generally responsible for ringworm in the Australian Aborigines show interesting differences from those usually isolated from other races in Australia. The main example are: Trichophyton tonsurans and T. violaceum: and, granuler variant of T. rubrum and a type of M. canis both of which were described by the authors.With a few notable exceptions, ringworm in the Australian Aborigines has attracted little medical interest or scientific attention. For example, Foelsche, a police inspector, wrole about ringworm affecting Northern Territory Aborigines in 1882. The dermalophyte responsible was not defined and described until 1973.The writers believe that much more work is needed to clarify the various aspects of ringworm among the Australian Aborigines.

    TINEA CAPITIS IN ABORIGINAL CHILDREN AT MANINGRIDA, NORTHERN TERRITORY, AUSTRALIA (1977)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: A high incidence od endemic tinea capitis was found among children at the Aboriginal settlement of Maningrida, Arnhem Land, on the northern coast of Australia some 400 km east of Darwin. The cause was a variant of Microsporum canis which will be referred to as the‘Maningrida’type. It was isolated form 21 (25.3%) brush samples taken form the scalps of 83 Aboriginal Children.There were diffuse, or scattered fine white scaling lesions with minimal hair loss. Clinically these infections could not be distinguished from endothrix tinea capitis caused by Trichophyton tonsurans or Trichophyton violaceum which occur frequently in Aboriginal children in South Australia. No cases of endothrix tinea catitis were found in Aboriginal children in Darwin or in the other settlements which were visited in Arnhem Land.The‘Maningrida’type of M. canis developed as a small spidery colony with a central downy to powdery fuftm which in five to six days produced many typical macroconidia. Young cultures Produced little or no pigment, but later developed a buff or pale brownish pigment.Four cats and two dogs at maningrida were shown to be reservoirs of the variant of M. Canis.No Strains of the typical M. canis with its golden yellow pigment were isolated at maningrida.

    Trichophyton Rubrum Infections in Northern Territory Aborigines (1973)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: Trichophyton rubrum infections are endemic among Aborigines living in the high rainfall areas of the Northern Territory of Australia. Over sixty cases have been verified by laboratory examinations.In this preliminary report a few early observations are mentioned. The clinical, mycological and histological findings to date are described and some comments on epidemiology are made as a forerunner to a subsequent report on this disease in these parts of Australia.In general, the changes seen in the skin due to this infection are similar to those often observed in sub-acute and chronic eczema.So far as we know, T. rubrum infections among Aborigines of the Northern Territory have not been confirmed previously by isolation of the causative fungus.The isolates of T. rubrum concerned are described as granular strains of the species. The colonies become increasingly powdery with age due to the production of numerous microconidia and variable numbers of macroconidia. These findings contrast with the fluffy strains usually isolated from Caucasians in Australia.

    Notes: Demodex folliculorum and D. brevis have been found in taken from full-blood Australian Aborigines. The incidence of demodicid infestations was highest among males, 66%, in two groups of Aborigines but the mites were absent in a third group.No regular correlation was found between the clinical appearance of the skin and the presence of the mites. One interesting case is mentioned.

    Prescribing by Six Australian Dermatologists A Pilot Study (1974)

    Notes: Six Australian dermatologists agreed to participate in a pilot study on their prescribing habits.The many medicaments they prescribed in their private practices as pharmaceutical benefits under the National Health Act 1953–1973 during the months of October, 1972, and February, 1973, are tabulated and discussed.The preparations most often ordered were classified into groups which included antibiotics, sulphonamides, antihistamines, drugs acting on the nervous system, corticosteroids, fungistatics, antimalarials and topical applications.Apart from the selection of tetracyclines and betamethasone in topical applications, the results are interesting because they show diversity rather than similarity in the approach to dermatological treatment by these six dermatologists. The differences in selecting either griseofulvin of nystaatin are given explanation.
