Subsequent investigations suggested clinical diagnosis Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS),...
Psoriatic disease remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. We developed validated a suite of novel, sensor-based smartphone assessments (Psorcast app) that can be self-administered to measure cutaneous musculoskeletal signs symptoms psoriatic disease. Participants with psoriasis (PsO) or arthritis (PsA) healthy controls were recruited between June 5, 2019, November 10, 2021, at 2 academic medical centers. Concordance accuracy digital measures image-based machine learning models compared...
We found pre-established directives inadequate to cope with the current increase in anthropophilic tinea capitis Brussels.To study new epidemiological profiles and define strategies for management prevention.A total of 122 children affected by were followed our department from October 1, 2001, until September 30, 2002. The results assessed retrospectively.Anthropophilic represented 89.34% cases. implicated dermatophytes decreasing frequency: Microsporum langeronii (39.34%), Trichophyton...

We report the first case of macular arteritis in a 33‐year‐old Black, African female with concurrent human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B (HBV) infections. Of particular interest is striking discordance between clinical presentation histopathological findings, fact that both dermatologists dermatopathologists should be aware. Histopathologically, showed typical findings perivascular, predominantly lymphocytic, infiltrate intraluminal thrombosis. Both HIV HBV have been reported...
We report a case of recurrent vulvar ulcerations developed on vegetations associated with Crohn's disease. Lesions responded to low-dose thalidomide treatment. A biopsy revealed neutrophilic infiltrate rare giant cells. Vulvar manifestations were consistent metastatic disease or reactive dermatitis. Thalidomide reduces the activity tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha by accelerating degradation its mRNA. Nowadays, it has become promising drug in broad variety disorders which TNF-alpha seems...

Abstract Background The purpose of the study was to compare histopathologic and immunophenotypic features central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA) lichen planopilaris (LPP) better characterize differentiate these two clinical entities. CCCA remains an ill‐defined still‐unsettled histologic entity many hair loss experts regard be histologically indistinguishable from LPP. Given overlapping lymphocyte‐predominant alopecias, lack consensus regarding significance proposed distinctions,...
