With the emergence of novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) viral pandemic, there is uncertainty whether biologic agents for psoriasis may place patients at a higher risk infection or more severe course. This commentary offers patient counseling recommendations based on current available evidence. While are currently no specific data biologics and COVID-19, presented here from phase III clinical trials rates upper respiratory infection, influenza, serious infection. Overall these reveal that...
Electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a noninvasive tool that measures the electrophysical properties of pigmented lesions, generating score to aid in differentiation benign and malignant lesions. This research letter compares two studies, conducted United States (US) Germany, evaluating impact EIS on biopsy decision-making among dermatologists. Both studies used same set clinical dermoscopic images along with scores for 49 Findings revealed American dermatologists had higher rate...
Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a chronic, orphan disease with limited epidemiological data.
Empirical decisions to select therapies for psoriasis (PSO) and atopic dermatitis (AD) can lead delays in disease control increased health care costs. However, routine molecular testing AD PSO are lacking.
The number of total cosmetic procedures performed yearly has increased by more than 274% between 1997 and 2014, according to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. However, vast majority plastic surgery are still targeted toward women, with little attention men.This study sought quantify extent gender discrepancies observed in online marketing this country.For 48 contiguous United States, a systematic Google (Mountain View, CA) search was "[state] surgeon." first 10 solo or...
The management of psoriatic disease in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients is challenging. Psoriasis HIV-positive often severe, progressive, and resistant to first- second-line therapies, including topical treatments, phototherapy, highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), oral retinoids. Other systemic agents used treat psoriasis, such as methotrexate cyclosporine, are immunosuppressants thus many dermatologists may not feel comfortable prescribing them who already...
Background: Even the most experienced dermatologists may forego a biopsy on as many one-third of malignant melanomas (MMs). Electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is noninvasive technology that send painless, very low voltage electrical current through pigmented lesion to determine if it benign or malignant. This study aimed EIS data can improve decision even beyond dermoscopy. Methods: A survey with 49 images MMs, severe dysplastic nevi (SDNs), and skin lesions (PSLs) was shown at national...
The dermatology residency application process implemented a new system of preference signaling tokens (PSTs) in the 2021-2022 cycle to allow applicants express higher level interest specific programs. Limited data are available on utilization and impact these tokens.To determine PSTs where had greatest influence.A 14-question survey was sent 62 ACGME-accredited Primary outcomes were PST applications. Variables evaluated using open-ended questions, yes/no responses, importance ratings from 0...
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory condition for which eleven FDA-approved biologic therapies are approved. Over the past decade, studies have documented higher efficacy of IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors treatment psoriasis compared to TNF-alpha ustekinumab, an IL-12/23 inhibitor. Despite this, there remains important role use ustekinumab in psoriasis. Here, we review how considerations infection malignancy risk, patient demographics, resistance, comorbidities may make certain or excellent...
