Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Sitanala Leprosy Village, Tangerang, Indonesia, in April 2018. Sociodemographic data and leprosy baseline characteristics were obtained from patients with leprosy who had completed multidrug therapy. The Screening of Activity Limitation and Safety Awareness scale was used to measure limitations in performing daily functional activities. Results: A total of 205 people were included in the study, of which 39 (19%) had eye disabilities, 178 (86.8%) had hand disabilities, and 187 (91.2%) had foot disabilities. A total of 135 (65.8%) people had mild-to-moderate functional limitation, and 33 (16%) had severe-to-very severe functional limitation. The proportion of unemployed individuals was higher among those with severe-extreme limitation compared to those without significant limitation (p=0.01). Individuals with eye disability had a higher risk of having severe-extreme activity limitation compared to those without eye disability (p=0.008). A dose-response association of hands and foot disabilities with activity limitation was found; the adjusted odds ratio (OR) of the association of hands and foot disabilities with mild-moderate activity limitation was 3.03 (p=0.012), and the association was greater with severe-extreme activity limitation (adjusted OR; 20.38, p=0.006). Conclusion: Severe disability is associated with functional activity limitations. The findings of the present study can guide healthcare providers in designing appropriate prevention and intervention services for patients with leprosy-related disabilities.","PeriodicalId":49412,"journal":{"name":"Turkderm-Archives of the Turkish Dermatology and Venerology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44713042","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}

Usturalı Keskin","doi":"10.4274/turkderm.galenos.2022.07347","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4274/turkderm.galenos.2022.07347","url":null,"abstract":"Background and Design: Morphea is also known as localized scleroderma. It is a rare autoimmune skin disease characterized by inflammation and sclerosis in the dermis and sometimes in the subcutaneous tissue. Laboratory findings, imaging, and histopathological features facilitate diagnosis and provide sufficient information about disease severity. Clinicopathologic correlations and severity factors in morphea are poorly described. Thus, this study aimed to review the clinical and histopathological features and treatment responses of patients with morphea and compare these features with disease activity and damage scores to identify new tools for assessing disease severity other than clinical findings. The applicability of the Localized Scleroderma Cutaneous Assessment Tool in clinical practice was also evaluated. Materials and Methods: This study reviewed data of 41 patients who had a histopathologically confirmed diagnosis of morphea and had been followed up regularly for at least 6 months. The modified Localized Scleroderma Skin Severity Index (mLoSSI), Localized Scleroderma Skin Damage Index (LoSDI), Physician Global Assessment-Activity (PGA-A), and Physician Global Assessment-Damage (PGA-D) were calculated at baseline and final treatment. Results: Among morphea subtypes, superficial morphea had significantly more sclerosis in the papillary dermis and plaque-type morphea had significantly more sclerosis in the reticular dermis (p<0.05). When positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) and high levels of thyroid autoantibodies were compared with mLoSSI, LoSDI, PGA-A, and PGA-D scores at baseline, no significant correlation was found. Comparison of the subgroups according to the initial mLoSSI and LoSDI scores revealed no significant histopathological differences between the groups. Conclusion: Although the mLoSSI, LoSDI, PGA-A, and PGA-D scores can be successfully used for the follow-up and treatment of patients with morphea, no correlation was found between positive ANA, high levels of thyroid autoantibodies, and histopathological features. autoimmune diseases, clinical symptoms, and concomitant lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA) were recorded. Laboratory results, detailed treatment modalities, treatment duration, and treatment responses were assessed. The same dermatologist performed a biopsy of the erythematous rim of the inflammatory lesions or central sclerosis of the lesions that did not clinically show inflammation using a 4 mm punch biopsy instrument. Incisional biopsy was performed in patients with a provisional diagnosis of linear morphea, deep type morphea, or eosinophilic fasciitis.","PeriodicalId":49412,"journal":{"name":"Turkderm-Archives of the Turkish Dermatology and Venerology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43467637","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}

Data about the risk of Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) in patients using systemic retinoids are limited. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the risk of COVID-19 in patients undergoing systemic retinoid therapy. Materials and Methods: A total of 186 patients who have undergone systemic isotretinoin and acitretin therapy were recruited. Patients who presented to the dermatology clinic for various skin diseases, such as eczema, vitiligo, tinea, etc., who were not on systemic retinoid therapy, and who received topical medications comprised the control group. The development of COVID-19 in the retinoid therapy group and the control group was retrospectively reviewed using hospital database. Results: The mean age of the patients in the retinoid therapy group was 25.72 +/- 0.67 and that in the control group was 25.4 +/- 0.62. Moreover,165 patients received isotretinoin, and 21 patients received acitretin treatment. The isotretinoin dosage ranged from 0.5 to 0.8 mg/kg wheras the acitretin dosage ranged between 10 and 25 mg/day. Two patients (1.07%) in the retinoid therapy group and 8 (4.3%) patients in the control group were diagnosed with COVID-19. None of the patients receiving acitretin was diagnosed with COVID-19. COVID-19 diagnosis was established in the 2nd and 3rd months of isotretinoin treatment, and lung involvement was not observed. No significant difference regarding the number of COVID-19 cases and disease severity was found between the two groups (p=0.105;p=0.258, respectively). Conclusion: Isotretinoin and acitretin use was not associated with increased COVID-19 risk or disease severity. Systemic retinoids appear to be a safe treatment modality in the COVID-19 era.","PeriodicalId":49412,"journal":{"name":"Turkderm-Archives of the Turkish Dermatology and Venerology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47728377","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}
