CONCLUSION: HH product consumption varied by department and initially increased and then declined. Greater HH product use was associated with lower HAI rates. Targeted interventions are needed to sustain HH practice improvements.
CONCLUSIONS: The study highlights a disconnect between the high perceived value of ASM for patients and administrative staff and the challenging experiences of physicians. Successful implementation requires thoughtful integration into care models, clear guidelines for appropriate use, and proper triage and "channel management" to guide patients to appropriate modalities. Future research should explore triaging algorithms as part of a digital front door, specialty-specific variations, and the...
CONCLUSIONS: Impaired sex life is a significant concern for PCS patients, that warrants attention from healthcare providers. Our findings highlight the importance of addressing sex life impairments in the care of people with PCS.
CONCLUSION: The burden of skin diseases in China showed an increased trend before the COVID-19 pandemic. Dermatology service in China showed an east-west inverse pattern between outpatient and inpatient care. Resource allocation should consider both outpatient and inpatient data. Eczema/dermatitis had the highest hospitalization burden, while psoriasis had the longest stays and highest costs. Meanwhile, age-stratified strategies should be implemented in skin diseases clinical management.
Dermatology education faces limited curriculum time, a visually demanding specialty, and the need to develop both clinical reasoning and procedural competence. The flipped classroom (FC) delivers didactic content before class and reserves class time for active learning. This mini review synthesizes evidence on FC in dermatology education, distinguishes true FC from broader blended or active-learning approaches, and examines how newer image-based technologies such as teledermatology, gamified...
CONCLUSIONS: National crisis-related stress was associated with higher incidence of infectious skin diseases, particularly herpes zoster, but not with inflammatory conditions. These findings support targeted interventions, including vaccination and stress management, during crises.
CONCLUSION: This study identified primary infertility, varicocele diagnosis and asthenozoospermia as predominant findings among infertile Egyptian men. Over a decade, temporal declines in sperm concentration, motility, and morphology were observed, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Smoking and elevated gonadotropins negatively influenced semen quality and testicular volume, whereas testosterone levels and varicocele grade showed no significant correlation. These findings highlight the...
Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) is a mast-cell-enriched receptor that mediates immunoglobulin E-independent activation by structurally diverse neuropeptides, host-defense peptides, microbial products, and selected cationic drugs. Its biology links tissue stress and neuroimmune signaling to degranulation, vascular responses, pruritus, barrier dysfunction, and inflammatory amplification, but the extent to which individual diseases depend on this pathway remains uncertain. The...
Loss-of-function (LOF) variants of the FLG gene are risk factors for atopic dermatitis. However, owing to the repetitive nature of exon 3, these variants are difficult to characterize. We sought to determine whether the use of long-read technologies would enable better characterization of the FLG gene and improve the detection of LOF variants. We sequenced a diverse clinical cohort of 192 samples collected in Belgium, Ireland, and Rwanda using long-read sequencing as well as publicly available...
Melatonin is best known as a pineal hormone that regulates circadian rhythms, but the skin also possesses an intrinsic melatoninergic system capable of local synthesis, metabolism and signalling. This system encompasses classical melatonin receptors, biologically active metabolites, non-classical signalling pathways and receptor-independent intracellular actions involved in cutaneous stress responses, with emerging evidence for broader roles in skin homeostasis. In this review, we integrate...
CONCLUSION: The GRASS SEED protocol provides a sustainable template to minimize administrative burden, enhance site compliance, and generate robust real-world evidence for emerging therapeutic outcomes.
CONCLUSION: Most studies on infantile dermatoses originate from high-volume referral centers and predominantly focus on the neonatal period. Limited data are available from lower-volume tertiary care centers serving predominantly rural populations. Our study specifically evaluated infants aged 29 days to 12 months, focusing on acquired infectious and inflammatory dermatoses and excluding the neonatal period. This provides insight into the disease spectrum, preventable morbidity, and potentially...
ObjectivesTo investigate the prevalence of nasal methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization among adults with atopic dermatitis and explore its association with disease severity.MethodsThis cross-sectional study included 100 adults (≥18 years) with dermatologist-confirmed atopic dermatitis who attended dermatology outpatient clinics in Kuwait. Patients with nonatopic eczema, major systemic illnesses, or skin malignancy were excluded. Disease severity was assessed using the...
Psoriasis pathogenesis comprises both auto-immune and auto-inflammatory aspects. We hypothesized that complement anaphylatoxin C5a plays an important role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis via C5a receptor (C5aR) 1 and C5aR2 activation on neutrophils and through regulation of C5aR dependent IL-17/IL-23-mediated adaptive immune activation. The imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasiform dermatitis mouse model was used. Wildtype (WT), C5ar1-/- and C5ar2-/- mice received a daily topical dose of IMQ cream...
INTRODUCTION: IL-33 is a chromatin-associated alarmin of the IL-1 cytokine family involved in tissue homeostasis and immune responses following epithelial or endothelial injury. Although the IL-33/ST2 axis is an attractive therapeutic target, clinical outcomes with IL-33- or ST2-directed agents have varied across diseases and patient populations.
Tattoo-associated nontuberculous mycobacterial infections can present in a variety of ways, including papular, pustular, nodular, and abscess-like morphologies. We report the case of an immunocompetent 28-year-old male who presented with diffusely distributed monomorphic papules with collarettes of scale confined to recently tattooed skin. Histopathologic evaluation demonstrated an atypical lichenoid vacuolar interface dermatitis, and tissue culture ultimately confirmed infection with...
