The purpose of this systematic review is provide a qualitative evaluation studies investigating response among psoriasis with cardiometabolic comorbidities. Methods: A comprehensive was conducted according the Preferred Reporting Guidelines Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines screen including receiving therapy psoriasis.

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is defined as an estimated fetal weight (EFW) or abdominal circumference (AC) <10th percentile (%ile) for gestational age (GA). An EFW <3rd %ile GA considered severe FGR (sFGR). It remains unknown if fetuses with isolated AC should be sFGR. Our primary objective was to assess composite neonatal outcomes in <3
Background: Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is highly prevalent in the United States, with darker-skinned patients (DSP) exhibiting lower incidence but increased morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study to elucidate NMSC disparities between DSP (Fitzpatrick phototype IV or more) lighter-skinned (LSP, Fitzpatrick III less), focusing on surgical features non-Mohs micrographic surgery-treated NMSC. Methods: This retrospective cohort included LSP diagnosed either basal cell carcinoma...
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, inflammatory condition associated with numerous comorbidities, but there has been no broad-spectrum investigation into the dermatological comorbidities that are HS using nationally representative data. We therefore analysed 2016-2018 National Inpatient Sample for adult patients and without used multivariable logistic regression to determine correlations between 25 conditions, adjusting age, ethnicity race, sex insurance type. As seen previously,...

Immunohistochemistry to detect mutated mismatch repair genes is commonly performed on sebaceous neoplasms screen for Muir-Torre syndrome.1 We report a case of the development carcinoma at same anatomic location from which adenoma was removed 5 years previously. Both lesions displayed pattern loss DNA genes.

Abstract Background: Pathergy refers to the tendency of a cutaneous disease, such as pyoderma gangrenosum (PG), arise or flare at sites physical trauma. The rate pathergy following routine surgical procedures among patients with known PG is not well described. Objective: To determine clinical variables that predict in history PG. Methods: A single-center retrospective chart review was performed from 2015-2021 identify gangrenosum, order collect: demographics, undergoing procedure, anatomical...
