They can be divided in two subgroups: “true PAE” characterized by the previously proven efficacy of the biological agent for the PAE and “borderline PAE” defined by the development of an inflammatory condition where the biological agent has not a proven efficacy. Methods: systematic search of English databases in order to identify true and borderline-skin PAE under anti IL-17 therapy. Results: We retrieved 58 patients affected by skin-PAE during anti-IL-17 therapy, 40 cases classified as True-PAE and 18 as Borderline-PAE., with a mean age of onset of 51 years. Secukinumab was the most frequent agent associated to skin-PAE and mean onset of the skin-PAE was 18 weeks. Conclusion: True-skin-PAE occur during anti Il-17 therapy, the underlaying immunological mechanism is not yet known, but pustular variants of psoriasis seem to be more prevalent; withdrawal of the anti-IL-17 therapy has been mainly performed and other therapies such as antiIL-23 biologics seem to control both the underlying disease and the true-skin-PAE. Further studies are needed in order to better understand the immunological mechanism involved.","PeriodicalId":15448,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical & experimental dermatology research","volume":"100 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79352338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It includes pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus superficial. Rituximab is an antibody that targets CD-20 molecules on B-cells and has been approved as a first-line treatment for moderate to severe pemphigus vulgaris. The aim of our study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Rituximab in the treatment of pemphigus patients. Materials and methods: It is a prospective study extending over a period of 6 years from December 2016 to July 2022, including all patients with severe or treatment-resistant pemphigus who received treatment with RITUXIMAB at a dose of 375 mg/m2/week for 4 weeks (lymphoma protocol) or 2 infusions of 1 g at 15-day intervals (rheumatoid arthritis protocol (PR protocol)), combined with oral corticosteroid therapy at a dose of 0.5 to 1 mg/kg/day (depending on severity) with a 6-month taper. Maintenance treatment depends on the IFI level. In the case of high levels, an infusion of 1 g after 6 months is given and in the case of low levels, an infusion of 500 mg after 1 year is given. Consent and authorization from the local ethics committee were required. The datan were entered into an Excel program and analyzed via Epi info version 7 software.

This is apparently based on classical concept that damage from sunlight, a carcinogen, is cumulative and un-reparable. Such concept is apparently flawed both theoretically and in reality. The nature’s design to achieve genomic stability of body health and appearance for smooth passage of generations in our normal daily lives would require virtually complete repair of damages of DNA and other tissue components from daily Exposure to Non-Burning Sunlight (ENS). In other words, ENS is generally not expected to cause skin cancer and photoaging. Such notion is evidenced by, for example, low worldwide skin-cancer incidences, severe sunburn as overwhelming skin-cancer etiology, and intrinsic aging as overwhelming skin aging. Since ENS can provide numerous health benefits, such exposure can be regarded as healthy sun exposure and used to help prevent skin cancer. Due to unintended sunburn effect, use of sunscreens for intense intermittent exposure is strongly discouraged. As photoaging and skin cancer may be closely related, some questions related to conventional theories and practices in photoaging are also raised. They include the following: Schuster’s pioneering study in 1975; invalidation of accelerated aging theory; questionable theory on etiology of wrinkles and age spots; Fisher’s studies on metalloproteinases; bolus doing vs constant-rate dosing in irradiation; moisturizers as anti-photoaging/anti-cancer agents; inclusion of blood and water in skin-aging exosome; wind effect; differences in usage pattern between countries in sunscreen evaluation; replacement of UVA in tanning beds.","PeriodicalId":15448,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical & experimental dermatology research","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83940425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the widespread use of PRP in numerous fields of medicine, there have been few studies that investigated the clinical efficacy of PRP in FPHL.\u0000\u0000Methods: Fourteen female patients, age ranged from 20-45 years, diagnosed with female pattern hair loss were enrolled in this single-blinded randomized placebo-controlled study. Fourteen patients were divided randomly into two groups: Group 1 were injected with PRP using insulin syringe and group 2 were injected with normal saline as placebo. All patients were followed at 3 and 6 months after the last treatment sessions. Of the total subjects enrolled, on ten subjects completed the study. In total, 7 (70%) individuals received PRP and 3 (30%) received placebo. During all the treatment sessions, there were no severe adverse events reported. The study yielded investigator, subject and photographic assessments.\u0000\u0000Results: On the basis of the independent-blinded investigator assessment of change in the patient’s scalp hair growth from baseline, treatment in PRP group demonstrated as scale 1 improvement in 5 subjects (26-50%) and scale 2 improvement in 2 subjects (51-75%) at the final visit as compared to baseline (Fig. 1,2). In contrast, in the placebo group were rated as scale 0 improvement (0-25%).\u0000\u0000Conclusion: PRP injection for FPHL is a simple, cost-effective and feasible treatment option with good safety profile. However more randomized and multicentric trials with a large number of patients will be required to prove the validity of these results, to obtain these answers and to get more robust statistical results.","PeriodicalId":15448,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical & experimental dermatology research","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75451616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clinical manifestations are dominated by skin involvement. It is a condition that sometimes poses diagnostic and therapeutic problems.\u0000\u0000Observation: We report the case of an 81-year-old non-smoking, non-alcoholic patient who presented with polymorphic cutaneous lesions in the form of gums of variable size disseminated on the trunk and the limbs at the stage of rawness or softening, an ulcerative lesion crusty measuring 5 cm on its longest axis sitting at the level of the abdomen and an ulceration measuring 6 cm on its longest axis with purulent and hemorrhagic background with raised edges and indurated base at the level of the right subclavicular region. This picture had been evolving for 9 months in a context of impaired general condition and exertional dyspnoea at stage IV. Pulmonary examination revealed bilateral pleural effusion syndrome. Examination of the lymph nodes revealed no superficial adenopathy. African histoplasmosis was suggested. Retroviral serology and syphilitic serology were negative. The thoraco-abdomino-pelvic computed tomography showed a tumoral process at the apical level of the right lung at the level of the ventral segment of the upper lobe and multiple secondary localizations in the right mediastino-hilar lymph nodes under the skin and bone. The diagnosis of histoplasmosis was retained by the pathological examination of the skin biopsy, which was in favor of histoplasmosis and mycology confirmed histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma capsulatum var. dubosii.
