The impact of ambient humidity on healthy and diseased skin
@inproceedings{Goad2015TheIO, title={The impact of ambient humidity on healthy and diseased skin}, author={N. Goad}, year={2015} }
Background: Temperature and ultraviolet radiation levels are known to have an impact on the skin’s health and function. Several studies have examined the role of another variable climatic factor humidity on healthy and diseased skin in human and mouse subjects, with varying results. Methods: An online literature search using key words was based around ambient relative humidity and its impact on skin health and function. Results: Murine studies determine that low humidity causes a number of… Expand
