Patients with CSU may experience sleep disturbances, particularly due to itching. Biological rhythms (chronotypes) are categorized as morningness, intermediate, and eveningness types. This study evaluates the relationship between sleep quality, chronotype, and disease severity in CSU patients.Methods: The study included 53 CSU patients and 50 healthy controls. A sociodemographic data form was completed, and the disease severity was determined utilizing the Urticaria Activity Score over 7 days (UAS7). The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scales as well as the Morningness-Eveningness Scale (MEQ) were applied to the participants.Results: The CSU group had a significantly higher body mass index (BMI) than that of the healthy control group. In terms of sleep and chronotype scales, compared to the control group, the CSU group had higher ISI scores as well as subscale scores on the PSQI subscales, with the exception of habitual sleep efficiency and total PSQI scores. There was no difference between MEQ scores. In the correlation analysis, the UAS7 and PSQI total scores were found to be correlated, whereas in the logistic regression analysis the estimated relative risk of BMI and PSQI total score for CSU was found to be 1.13 and 1.45, respectively.Conclusions: When dealing with CSU patients, it is necessary to conduct a sleep quality assessment as part of a holistic evaluation.","PeriodicalId":45914,"journal":{"name":"Acta Dermatovenerologica Alpina Pannonica et Adriatica","volume":"33 1","pages":"7-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140294936","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}

By determining an individual criterion's diagnostic accuracy, one can identify short-version classification models.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, data were collected from Danish blood donors in 2021. Cohen's kappa and diagnostic accuracy were determined by comparing each criterion with the gold standard method.Results: The study included 1,039 participants. Of them, 59 (5.7%) had PHH and 980 (94.3%) were classified as control individuals. The PHH major criterion \"focal visible excessive sweating for at least 6 months without an apparent cause\" had the highest prevalence in the participants with PHH compared to the control individuals (100% vs. 0.6%; p < 0.0001). The agreement between this criterion and PHH was Cohen's kappa = 0.95 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.91-0.99), and its sensitivity was 1.00 (95% CI 0.94-1.00) and specificity 0.99 (95% CI 0.99-1.00). The other criteria showed lower agreement and diagnostic accuracy.Conclusions: The PHH major criterion showed near-perfect agreement and near-equal diagnostic accuracy compared with the gold standard method. This single criterion can be used as a short-form version to screen for PHH. Determination of reproducibility in independent populations is warranted.","PeriodicalId":45914,"journal":{"name":"Acta Dermatovenerologica Alpina Pannonica et Adriatica","volume":"33 1","pages":"17-22"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140294934","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}

From the onset of symptoms until diagnosis, patients often have several contacts with the healthcare system. It was hypothesized that a \"digital fingerprint\" of undiagnosed HAE patients could be identified in Danish registries.Methods: This study compared patients with a control group of patients with a diagnosis of Quincke's edema (QE) or bee/wasp allergy because they could have phenotypic similarities.Results: QE was the most common diagnosis code in the hospital sector among HAE patients before a specific diagnosis of HAE was established. HAE patients had been seen at the hospital on average once every other year before the diagnosis was established, and on average once during the year before the diagnosis was established. Many patients contacted a practicing dermatologist during the year before the diagnosis was established.Conclusions: HAE patients had several hospital contacts due to swelling attacks during the years before their diagnosis was established, and half of them consulted a dermatologist. It was not possible to identify a specific \"digital fingerprint\" in Danish registries regarding specific procedures or diagnoses distinguishing them from the control group. It is therefore recommended that hospitalized patients with angioedema of unknown cause be screened for HAE.","PeriodicalId":45914,"journal":{"name":"Acta Dermatovenerologica Alpina Pannonica et Adriatica","volume":"33 1","pages":"13-16"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139724444","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}
