Folliculitis Folliculitis is the most common complication occur- ring in practice, usually occurring about 3 weeks to 4 months postsurgery. It usually disappears spontaneously, but occasionally, a chronic recurrent form of folliculitis can develop. This may be due to a foreign body reaction of recipient dermis against the epidermal component of the transplanted hair or a small fragment of hair, as well as obstruction of a sebaceous gland, because no hair grafts have yet exited the scalp. Fortunately, this eventu- ally clears with time and rarely reduces eventual growth, although it can be delayed.

A clear relationship between drug intake and hair colour modification may be difficult to demonstrate and the underly- ing mechanisms of hair changes are often unknown. To assess whether a side effect is determined by a specific drug, different algorithms or scores (e.g. Naranjo, Karch, Kramer, and Begaud) have been developed. The knowledge of previous similar reports on drug reactions is a key point of most algorithms, therefore all adverse events should be recog- nised and reported to the scientific community. Furthermore, even if hair colour change is not a life-threatening side effect, it is of deep concern for patient’s quality of life and adherence to treatment.

The trained network reaches an accuracy of 28.10% when validated with images that were not used for training. This can be improved by trying different combinations of input variables, or using a different conversion for the values that were gained from the APIs. It is also possible that the APIs are not completely accurate. A third possibility for improvement would be to use a different learning algorithm, such as k-Nearest Neighbors or naive Bayes.

C. 20555 i,4 MEMORANDUM FOR: Those on Attached List FROM: LeMoine J. Cunningham, Chief Section 2, Operating Reactor Programs Branch Division of Quality Assurance, Safeguards, and Inspection Programs Office of Inspection and Enforcement SUBJECT: UPDATED GUIDANCE ON FIT TESTING OF BIOPAK 60-P RESPIRATOR USERS This letter provides updated guidance on fit testing of BioPak 60-P respirator users in response to inquiries from licensees and inspectors regarding implemen- tation of previous guidance (memo to L.R. Greger, RIII, from L.J. Cunningham, IE August 8, 1983 - copy enclosed).- Licensee and inspectors have inquired as to what constitutes an acceptable method for performing quantitative fitting of the wearers of this apparatus as required in footnote 1, to Appendix A of Part 20; specifically, is it acceptable to check the fit of the device (the face to facepiece sealing capability) by testing the user while the user is wearing just the facepiece equipped with a high efficiency filter supplied by the manufacturer of the device. Previous guidance stated that the wearer must don the entire unit for-fit testing since it was 'felt that' fitting the face- piece with a high efficiency filter that is capable of allowing no more than 0.03% leakage would preclude measurement of the required 0.02% leakage or less through the face to facepiece sealing area. However, the 0.03% leakage allowed for high efficiency filters is determined with a more penetrating aerosol (monodispersed) than used in fit testing.
