Seborrheic dermatitis is a common and chronic skin disease, which is particularly prevalent in older adults. While a specific cause of seborrheic dermatitis remains largely unelucidated, the currently understood pathogenesis of seborrheic dermatitis revolves around the presence of Malassezia yeast colonies and an inflammatory response in the affected individual. Keratinocyte proliferation resulting from inflammasome response in the host skin leads to the clinically relevant symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis. The increasing number of older adults as a percentage of the population in the USA will lead to an even higher prevalence of the disease in the ensuing decades. Fortunately, there are multiple treatment options based on individual patient situations and preferences. Topical treatment is the gold standard, but oral therapy may be required in certain cases. In order to maximize effectiveness and minimize adverse pharmacologic effects, effective treatment for older adults must take into account changes in lifestyle and metabolism that occur with aging.

Groundwater is a strategic resource for economic development, social justice, environmental sustainability, and water governance. The lower Casas Grandes River Basin, located in the state of Chihuahua, México, is in a semi-arid region with increasing groundwater demand and regional challenges such as drought and depletion of aquifers. Even though there is official information about the availability of groundwater, a comprehensive aquifer characterization requiring an interdisciplinary investigation using a diverse suite of tools and multiple data sources has yet to be carried out. This study presents a multi-technique framework to evaluate potential sites to drill for groundwater resources and reduce the risk of unsuccessful drilling. The main components of the methodology include wellhead leveling correction with a differential global positioning survey to define piezometric levels, principal component analysis using LANDSAT-8 images, application of geospatial tools, geophysics analysis using time domain electromagnetic surveys (TDES) and vertical electric soundings (VES), and structural geohydrology to define aquifer characteristics. The results showed that using the proposed framework steps improved the possibility of identifying subsurface layers with lower resistivity values that could be related to groundwater. Low resistivity values (35 Ohm-m) were found at depths from 50 to 85 m at sites where the regional static water level reached a depth of 245 m, indicating the potential location of a shallow groundwater resource at a site where the intersection of a fracture trace was identified. This procedure can be used in other regions in the world where limited information is available for groundwater exploration, thus reducing the risk of drilling dry wells in complex hydrogeological environments.
