Imbalanced Dermic Microbiome Aggravates Inflammation in Toenail Paronychia

The commensal microbiome influences skin immunity, but its function in toenail health remains unclear. Paronychia is one of the most common inflammatory toenail diseases, but antibiotic treatment is seldom effective in clinical cases. In this study, we performed 16S rRNA sequencing to investigate th...

Imbalanced Dermic Microbiome Aggravates Inflammation in Toenail Paronychia
