Early pressure ulcer formation involves a critical window where physiological changes occur before visible signs. This study addresses this gap, aiming to monitor the temporal inflammatory profile in skin sebumsurface after the standard use of oronasal facemasks. Sebum samples were collected from 11 patients at six6 timepoints up to 180 min post-mask removal. A panel of 71 inflammatory proteins was analysed using multivariate statistics, protein network analysis, and mathematical modelling. Two distinct cytokine response phases were identified: an early phase (0-20 min) and a delayed phase (40-180 min), with 17 cytokines driving this separation. Notably, the delayed phase showed sustained elevation despite the absence of visible erythema, indicating ongoing subclinical inflammation. Network analysis revealed activation of pathways related to angiogenesis, cell death regulation, and tissue remodelling - hallmarks of early wound healing and microvascular stress. These findings enhance understanding of early pressure ulcer pathophysiology, identify optimal biomarker sampling windows, and support the development of point-of-care biosensors for early detection and prevention of pressure-induced skin damage.</p>","PeriodicalId":6944,"journal":{"name":"Acta dermato-venereologica","volume":"106 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13527610/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148862964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A steering group of 8 European dermatologists developed 48 consensus statements addressing tildrakizumab prescribing, dose selection and titration. The statements were incorporated into an online Likert survey and distributed across 9 European countries to experienced dermatologists. Consensus was predefined as ≥75% agreement. Seventy-two dermatologists completed the survey. Consensus was achieved for 35/48 statements (73%).

In this cross-sectional international online survey of 1,879 adults with physician-diagnosed acne (FA n=1,075; TA n=804) across 20 countries, multivariable logistic regression adjusted for age, sex and country showed that TA was independently associated with stigmatization (aOR 1.41 [95%CI 1.16-1.71]), hospitalization (aOR 1.73 [1.25-2.38]) and poor treatment adherence (aOR 1.26 [1.03 1.53]). Stigmatization was equally prevalent in truncal-only (49.2%) and combined facial-and truncal (50.5%) patients (aOR 1.00), indicating that it is intrinsic to truncal involvement rather than a consequence of facial disease.

Cardiovascular risk assessment included anthropometric, lifestyle, vascular and laboratory data, with global risk estimated using the PREVENT equations.
