Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by pruritus and relapsing course, affecting approximately 25% of children 4–7% adults. This study evaluated the efficacy, safety, quality-of-life impact tralokinumab, humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-13 (IL-13), in treating moderate-to-severe AD real-world setting, with focus on different phenotypes. An observational cohort 30 adults treated tralokinumab for ≥ 16 weeks was analyzed. Clinical...
Patients affected by pre-existing chronic spontaneous/Inducible urticaria (CSU/CIU) still feel unsafe due to the potential risk of an Adverse Event Following Immunization (AEFI) and Cutaneous Reactions (CARs) COVID-19 vaccines. The appropriate management in this field remains debated evidence is lacking. We considered 160 CSU/CIU patients Omalizumab/antihistamine therapy who received two doses Comirnaty/Moderna mRNA vaccines; 20 them also a booster dose. Urticaria Activity Score-7 (UAS7) was...
Introduction: The incidence of melanoma increased considerably in recent decades, representing a significant public health problem. We aimed to evaluate the ability non-specialists for preliminary screening skin lesions identify melanoma-suspect lesions. Materials and Methods: A medical student dermatologist specialist examined total body scans 50 patients. Results: agreement between expert non-specialist was 87.75% (κ = 0.65) regarding assessment clinical significance. four parameters ABCD...

After coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused a global pandemic, vaccines were rapidly developed to control the spread of virus. Although they effective in most cases at protecting people from becoming seriously ill and being hospitalized, showed side effects, too. Among other adverse vaccine reactions, cutaneous eruptions following SARS-CoV-2 have been described literature, but are not well-characterized yet. We morphology timing spectrum reactions COVID-19 available Italy, which...
Introduction: The term "atypical melanocytic nevus" (AMN) is used as a synonym for dysplastic nevus (DN) in clinical practice. Although the criteria diagnosis of AMN/DN by Agency Research on Cancer helps to differentiate from common acquired nevi, they do not have high degrees specificity, are similar those melanoma. Objectives: In this retrospective study we evaluated correlation and diagnostic concordance dermoscopy, confocal microscopy, histological examination 50 AMN. Methods: A graded...
