影响指甲的疾病会导致严重的痛苦，并干扰个人的自尊，个人关系和职业生活。通常，手和脚的功能受到不利影响。某些疾病的特点是加速指甲生长，而另一些则表现出下降。在这篇综述中，已知影响指甲生长速度的药物进行了检查，突出了其潜在的使用作为治疗指甲疾病的连续疗法。这种方法，最近在黄甲综合征的背景下描述，（1）可以扩展到其他常见疾病，如指甲银屑病，脆甲和甲真菌病。
Diseases affecting the nail can cause significant distress and interfere with an individual's self-esteem, personal relationships, and professional life. Often, hand and foot function is adversely affected. Certain diseases are characterized by accelerated nail growth while others show a decrease. In this review, drugs known to influence the growth rate of nails are examined, highlighting their potential use as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of nail disease. This approach, described recently in the context of the yellow nail syndrome,(1) may be extended to other common disorders such as nail psoriasis, brittle nails, and onychomycosis.
