This study aimed to document the clinical profile of facial acne vulgaris and, additionally, to compare adolescent to postadolescent acne and any gender-based differences. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Cross-sectional descriptive study of 261 facial acne vulgaris patients was conducted from February 2021 to March 2022 at three dermatology clinics. Patients had their anthropometric measurements, type of acne lesions, and severity and scarring assessed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 261 patients (75.5% females) with a mean age of 24.5 (±7.4) years were diagnosed to have facial acne vulgaris. The severity of acne was mild in 44.8%, moderate in 48.3%, and severe in 6.9%. Acne was noninflammatory in 69.7%, inflammatory in 13.0%, and mixed in 17.2%. Adolescent and postadolescent acne significantly differed in the type of acne, BMI, type of acne lesions, and acne scarring. Gender-based differences included BMI, lesions of acne, and severity. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> There is an increasing prevalence of postadolescent acne with persistent being the most common category. There are significant differences between adolescent and postadolescent acne: type of acne, BMI, type of acne lesions, and acne scarring. Gender-based differences exist in both adolescent and postadolescent acne.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135221860","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}

Nevertheless, studies on this population remain scarce. The aim of this study was to review the literature and summarize the most frequent trichoscopic findings of scalp DLE among patients with a higher phototype. The main trichoscopic findings of DLE on black scalp are interruption of the honeycomb pattern, reduction, or absence of pinpoint white dots, keratotic follicular plugs and peripilar casts, blue-gray dots in a speckled pattern, and large tortuous arboriform vessels.

Within an extensive and evolving treatment landscape, oral isotretinoin has demonstrated efficacy for treatment of severe, recalcitrant acne. Several side effects of isotretinoin have been reported, including laboratory abnormalities, mucocutaneous, and musculoskeletal effects, which may reduce compliance and patient satisfaction with treatment. In this narrative review, we aim to review the efficacy and safety profile of oral supplements or topical adjuvant therapies in mitigating isotretinoin-associated mucocutaneous and musculoskeletal side effects. Oral supplements reviewed include omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E, folic acid and vitamin B12, antihistamines, l-carnitine, biotin, and combined oral supplements. Topical adjuvants include a hyaluronic acid, biosaccharide gum-2, and glycerine gel-cream; a nongreasy, noncomedogenic, fragrance-free moisturizing cream; dexpanthenol; trichloroacetic acid; and a combination cream. Most of the supplements and topical adjuvants demonstrated efficacy with an adequate level of supporting evidence and no reported adverse events, indicating an adequate safety profile. Patients on isotretinoin may benefit from using oral supplements and topical adjuvants to minimize primarily mucocutaneous side effects, increase adherence to treatment, and thereby improve overall outcomes.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135618687","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}

Topical treatments have been shown to be effective in treating nail bed disease but not as effective in treating nail matrix diseases, which often requires intralesional corticosteroids. Objectives: The objective of this open-label study was to evaluate the efficacy of combination calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate foam as a treatment for nail psoriasis including nail matrix disease. Method: We report three patients with moderate to severe nail psoriasis with involvement of all ten fingernails who applied study foam nightly for 6 months. Nails were assessed using the NAPSI score evaluating both nail bed and nail matrix disease. Results: NAPSI score improved including nail matrix disease in the majority of nails. No skin irritation or unexpected adverse events occurred. Conclusions: We conclude this foam combination product could be an effective and safe treatment for fingernail psoriasis and may provide better nail matrix penetration as evidenced by improvement in nail matrix score. Further studies are needed for additional evaluation.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"18 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136032586","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}

Nail unit revealed periungual crusted plaques with paronychia and onychomadesis involving five digits. It was associated with partial to complete nail loss. Dermoscopy of periungual crusted plaques showed greyish-white scales with brown dots and globules. A sinuous burrow with a brown-triangular structure was visualized in the web space. KOH mount from skin scrapings showed the scabies mites. Treatment of scabies led to a marked improvement. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Though ungual scabies is generally a benign disease, proximal periungual involvement with damage to nail matrix is possible, leading to nail loss. We review manifestations of nail unit scabies reported in literature. Treatment options used and outcomes are also analyzed. The importance of nail-directed therapy in preventing relapses of scabies cannot be undermined.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136062706","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}
