Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been linked to systemic immune dysregulation and various cutaneous manifestations, but its association with chronic allergic skin diseases, including atopic dermatitis (AD) and chronic urticaria (CU), remains unclear. This retrospective questionnaire-based cross-sectional study enrolled patients with AD and/or CU from a tertiary dermatology outpatient center in Western China. Self-administered questionnaires collected data on COVID-19 infection status,...
Rhabdomyolysis is a potentially life-threatening syndrome characterized by skeletal muscle breakdown and release of intracellular contents into circulation, which can result in electrolyte abnormalities, acute kidney injury (AKI), and renal failure. Viral infections, particularly influenza, are recognized triggers of rhabdomyolysis; however, recurrent or unusually severe presentations may suggest underlying genetic susceptibility. We report a case of a previously healthy 21-year-old male with a...
BACKGROUND: Chronic respiratory diseases are a leading cause of mortality in the USA, with considerable regional disparities influenced by environmental, occupational, and behavioural risk factors. This study aimed to quantify levels of, and trends in, the burden of chronic respiratory diseases in the USA from 1990 to 2023, with estimates of prevalence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs); identify risk factors contributing to this burden; and project prevalence trends until...
Background: Pulmonary embolism (PE) remains a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and associated infections may modify its clinical course. This study evaluated the impact of viral infections on pulmonary embolism severity, mortality, and the performance of established risk scores. Methods: This retrospective observational study included 729 patients with confirmed PE admitted between January 2020 and December 2025. Patients were grouped according to the presence of associated...
CONCLUSION: Employees in medical professions were under considerable strain due to their work during the pandemic. Therefore, the prevention of high levels of mental stress should play a key role in maintaining and strengthening long-term mental health.
Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma (AEGCG) is a rare, benign granulomatous disease that most commonly affects middle-aged women with a history of extensive sun exposure. It typically presents as asymptomatic annular plaques with raised erythematous borders and hypopigmented, atrophic centers. Histologically, it is characterized by granulomatous infiltration with elastolysis and elastophagocytosis by multinucleated giant cells. Here, we present a case of a 69-year-old woman with a unique...
COVID-19-associated pulmonary aspergillosis (CAPA) is a severe complication in critically ill patients, but species identification and antifungal resistance data from middle-income countries remain limited. We analyzed 17 Aspergillus isolates from respiratory specimens of 15 critically ill patients with COVID-19 in São Paulo State, Brazil, during 2020-2021. Patients were retrospectively classified according to ECMM/ISHAM criteria as probable CAPA (n = 5), possible CAPA (n = 7), or non-CAPA (n =...
CONCLUSIONS: Strengthening the role of PHC in health emergency preparedness is essential for building resilient health systems. The proposed EPRP provides actionable strategies to address the identified gaps and improve the integration of PHC into health crisis management. Implementation of these recommendations may enhance the capacity of European PHC systems to respond effectively to both acute and chronic health needs during future crises.
BACKGROUND: Second-hand smoke (SHS) exposure remains a major source of morbidity and mortality among non-smokers. This study presents the first dedicated Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) publication to systematically quantify SHS prevalence and evaluate its effect as a global risk factor across a broader range of outcomes.
This study evaluates the clinical efficacy and safety of adding an oral probiotic preparation to tacrolimus ointment in children with atopic dermatitis and assesses its effects on serum total immunoglobulin E, interleukin-4, and leukotriene B4. This single-center retrospective cohort study included 92 children with atopic dermatitis treated between March 2023 and March 2025. Treatment exposure reflected routine clinical practice. To reduce confounding by indication, propensity scores were...
Johannes Ring has shaped allergology for more than five decades. His scientific work ranges from early studies on anaphylaxis and drug hypersensitivity to atopic dermatitis, the atopy patch test and the role of environmental factors in allergic disease. But this is only one part of his legacy. As a clinician, the patient was always at the centre of his thinking, and many of his research questions came directly from clinical observation. As a mentor, he encouraged young physicians and scientists...

CONCLUSION: INH demonstrates a multi-target mode of action and distinct dual clinical advantages in the management of inflammatory skin diseases, rendering it especially relevant for resource-constrained settings and selected patient populations. Additional clinical investigations remain necessary to determine the optimal treatment strategy and to further establish its safety profile. However, clinical evidence remains limited and further prospective studies are needed.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are evolutionarily conserved, non-coding RNA molecules approximately 18-25 nucleotides in length that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Their principal mechanism of action is post-transcriptional gene silencing via RNA interference, achieved by binding to complementary sequences within target messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Accumulating evidence has highlighted the pivotal role of miRNAs in the development, differentiation, and function of immune cells, as...
OX40 and OX40L inhibitors represent the next generation of therapies to treat atopic dermatitis. However, because to their unique mechanism, they have tremendous potential to treat allergic contact dermatitis. Although the cornerstone of allergic contact dermatitis management is allergen avoidance, it is not possible in all cases. In this article, we outline the immunology of these drugs and how they could be leveraged to treat refractory allergic contact dermatitis.
Key therapeutic options for dermatologic care frequently extend beyond prescription medications to include evidence-based, over-the-counter (OTC) topicals that meaningfully influence disease pathophysiology. We introduce the concept of active dermatologic care (ADC), which encompasses nonprescription topical products with biologically active compounds that support and modulate key skin disease processes and can be routinely incorporated into comprehensive dermatologic care plans. We expand upon...
CONCLUSION: Preliminary clinical observations suggest that PB-PBT without lumpectomy achieves results within specific criteria and that it could be an option for breast cancer treatment using radiation therapy alone.
