Its effectiveness in immunosuppressed patients, however, is unclear. There is conflicting research on whether nicotinamide effectively decreases KCs in immunosuppressed solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs). This study assesses the effectiveness of nicotinamide in the secondary prevention of KC in immunosuppressed patients. We conducted a retrospective cohort study in a single tertiary care institution. The primary outcome was KC incidence in the year before and after nicotinamide supplementation. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), SCC in situ (SCCis), and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) over one- and two-year intervals. All included patients had taken oral nicotinamide, 500 milligrams twice daily, for at least one year. A total of 47 SOTRs (74.5% male; mean age 65.2 years) were included in our retrospective cohort study. Of 81 patients initially screened, 34 were excluded due to inadequate follow-up, dermatologic care outside our institution, or early discontinuation of nicotinamide. At one year post-nicotinamide supplementation, total KC incidence decreased from 224 (78 SCC, 103 SCCis, 43 BCC) to 121 cases (40 SCC, 55 SCCis, 26 BCC), a mean reduction of 2.19 KCs (95% CI: -3.48 to -0.90; p = 0.0012). Significant reductions were observed in SCC (mean decrease of 1.15; 95% CI: -1.78 to -0.52; p = 0.00081) and SCCis (mean decrease of 1.37; 95% CI: -2.61 to -0.13; p = 0.032). BCC reduction was not statistically significant (p = 0.13). In the 31 patients with two-year follow-up data, KC incidence declined from 234 to 167, a mean reduction of 2.18 KCs (95% CI: -4.18 to -0.14; p = 0.037). Sensitivity analyses excluding patients on concomitant acitretin confirmed that reductions in total KC incidence maintained significance at both one-year and two-year intervals. Nicotinamide supplementation significantly decreased KC incidence in immunosuppressed SOTRs over the one-year and two-year intervals. We recommend nicotinamide as a low-risk, low-cost chemopreventive supplement for reducing KCs in SOTRs.</p>","PeriodicalId":8203,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Dermatological Research","volume":"317 1","pages":"807"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144265166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Oral azithromycin has shown significant effectiveness in treating AV, attributed to its robust anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of azithromycin in patients with moderate-to-severe AV, with a focus on its influence on sebum composition and specific biomarkers, including pyridoxine (B6), biotin (B7), cobalamin (B12) (measured by HPLC), and homocysteine (measured by ELISA). A case-control study was conducted at the dermatology department of Al-Imamain-Alkadhimain Medical City, Baghdad. The study included thirty patients aged 15-35 years with moderate-to-severe AV, and thirty healthy individuals of the same age and sex served as a control group. Patients received 500 mg of azithromycin on alternate days for 12 weeks. Laboratory and clinical parameters were assessed at baseline and compared to the control group, then re-evaluated after treatment. The findings indicated a significant decrease in serum levels of folic acid, B7, and B6 at both 6 and 12 weeks post-treatment (p < 0.05). Serum homocysteine levels increased slightly over time, but this change was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). No significant difference in serum B12 levels was observed at 6 weeks (p > 0.05); however, a significant increase was noted at 12 weeks (p < 0.05). Clinical score, skin moisture, and sebum squalene (Sebum-SQ) content improved significantly post-treatment (p < 0.05), while sebum cholesterol (Sebum-Chol.) levels showed significant change only at 12 weeks (p < 0.05). The finding supports the efficacy of azithromycin in managing inflammatory acne and modulating sebum composition and specific biomarkers. However, the relatively small sample size and absence of power analysis limit the generalizability of the results. Future studies with larger cohorts are recommended to validate these findings.</p>","PeriodicalId":8203,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Dermatological Research","volume":"317 1","pages":"798"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144224109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
