Linear cutaneous discoid lupus erythematosus (LCDLE) is a rare presentation of lupus erythematosus, more frequently observed in children and young adults. Clinically, lesions present as unilateral, linear, erythematous plaques, frequently involving the face, but the neck, trunk, or extremities can also be affected. Several reports have documented cutaneous adverse events following both SARS-CoV-2 infection and various types of COVID-19 vaccination. Among these adverse events, autoimmune skin...
CONCLUSIONS: Fatigue is a prevalent and disabling PCS-symptom among occupationally exposed workers. Distinct determinants of cognitive and physical fatigue emphasise the need for early recognition, targeted management and rehabilitation strategies to support recovery and work reintegration.
CONCLUSION: Both PEM frequency and PEM severity substantially impair HRQoL in individuals with Long COVID. These findings underscore the clinical relevance of PEM as a key symptom and highlight the need for targeted management strategies to mitigate its impact on daily life.
CONCLUSIONS: More than two out of five patients experienced PASC one year after hospitalization for COVID-19. Associations with severe acute disease and vaccine reactogenicity support the hypothesis that dysregulated host immune responses may contribute to persistent post-COVID symptoms, highlighting the need for early identification and longitudinal follow-up of high-risk patients.
In collaboration with certified allergy centers (CACs) in Germany, a standardized procedure was developed for the allergologic evaluation of hypersensitivity reactions to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. Our CAC prospectively evaluated 60 subjects with prior allergic reactions to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines or components. The investigations included a comprehensive medical history, in-vitro and skin tests. Prick tests were negative in all participants. Two positive basophil activation tests suggested a...
Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a life-threatening mucocutaneous reaction characterized by rapidly progressive epidermal necrosis within hours to days, extensive skin detachment, and high mortality. Rarely, patients present with TEN-like eruptions that evolve slowly, over days to weeks, and have skin changes mostly confined to photodistributed areas, with possible mucosal involvement. The latter scenario is compatible with TEN-like lupus erythematosus. We report a 65-year-old man without...
CONCLUSIONS: LM/LMM incidence rates in the future will clarify if the post-Covid-19 increases are due to delayed presentations or a true rise in cases. The excellent net and overall survival of patients with LM, together with the low risk of progression to LMM, favour patient-centred discussions in the management of LM in older, frailer adults. The risk of progression without treatment requires further evidence.
Infantile haemangiomas (IH) are the most common vascular tumours of infancy, characterised by a predictable trajectory of rapid proliferation, plateau, and slow spontaneous involution. Although most regress uneventfully, a significant minority risk ulceration, functional compromise, or disfigurement, and therefore require timely intervention. The therapeutic landscape was once dominated by corticosteroids, interferon, and cytotoxic chemotherapeutics of modest efficacy and considerable toxicity....
CONCLUSION: GT is not a real epidemiological tool and can be only used by individuals who have access to the Internet. We observed temporal and geographical variations in public interest in hair loss treatments. COVID-19 pandemic, differences in the prevalence of alopecia-related conditions, cultural, social influences impact search trends across countries.
CONCLUSIONS: Clinical diagnosis of inflammatory dermatoses shows variable accuracy across disease entities. Dermatologists demonstrate broad diagnostic reasoning but commit to the correct primary impression less often. Histopathological examination remains essential, particularly for dermatitis/eczema and early mycosis fungoides.
CONCLUSION: This study reveals that a significant proportion of French bulldogs is affected by conditions involving the skin, respiratory system, and gastrointestinal tract. These findings highlight that efforts for ethical breeding practices, owner education, and breeding regulations continue to be critical for improving the health of the French bulldog breed. Such measures are an important means to reduce disease prevalence and improve the long-term health and welfare of the breed.
CONCLUSIONS: While highly consistent with previous data and observations, this is the first systematic comparison of these types of data across multiple T2IDs, using a rigorous quantitative assessment of the largest datasets evaluated to date. Many T2IDs are not only highly interrelated and comorbid, but share transcriptomic signatures and genetic predispositions that suggest they all share over-activation of the IL4/IL13 pathway as a key causative driver, consistent with and explaining their...
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: These findings suggest that, until further data are available, allergen testing in dogs, especially those with seasonal AD, may be optimally timed later in the season (autumn) to increase the likelihood of positive results.
CONCLUSION: Placental extracts exhibited diverse therapeutic effects across multiple NCDs, mediated by immunomodulatory, antioxidative, and metabolic regulatory mechanisms. While current evidence from preclinical and clinical studies is promising, large-scale, rigorously designed trials are needed to validate efficacy and clarify molecular pathways.
CONCLUSION: Pediatric AD involves site- and severity-specific microbial shifts. This functional dysregulation and enrichment of virulence factors may push barrier dysfunction and inflammation, suggesting that the microbiome is a critical target for future therapies.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as a promising cell-free therapeutic strategy for skin barrier repair due to their ability to mediate intercellular communication through the delivery of bioactive cargo including proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. This review synthesises current evidence on the role of EVs in restoring skin barrier integrity, with a particular focus on atopic dermatitis (AD) and chronic wounds. EVs derived from mesenchymal stromal cells, epidermal cells, and commensal...
CONCLUSION: In these challenging cases of moderate-to-severe AD where difficult-to-treat areas were involved, or conventional systemic treatments were contraindicated, lebrikizumab was associated with a marked improvement. No adverse events were reported during the observed follow-up. The presence of concomitant asthma or comorbidities, such as obesity and dyslipidemia, did not appear to hinder treatment feasibility.
