Review of safety and efficacy of approved systemic psoriasis therapies
AbstractPsoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease which affects nearly 3% of the adult US population. Due to the chronic nature of the disease and need for long ‐term treatment, psoriasis is associated with substantial disease burden and negative impact on patients’ quality of life. In the past, systemic agents such as methotrexate, cyclosporine, and acitretin have been the mainstay treatment for moderate to severe psoriasis. Multiple new molecular targ ets have been recently identified, and novel biologic therapies directed at these targets have been approved leading to a paradigm shift in psoriasis management. Howe...

Diagnostic values of KOH examination, histological examination, and culture for onychomycosis: a latent class analysis
ConclusionsBased on these results, we have proposed KOH as a screening test and GMS as a confirmatory test for the diagnosis of onychomycosis in our own practice. However, since positivity rates of different diagnostic methods vary widely in different centers, it is more suitable that every center should determine their own diagnostic strategy by evaluating their own results with latent class analysis.

Allogeneic skin donors from a tissue bank in Southern Brazil: clinical and epidemiological profiles and microbial colonization of skin
ConclusionsWe found significant associations between the type of microorganism colonizing the skin and the epidemiological and clinical profiles of the donors. This information is extremely important when determining the potential use of skin source and so optimizing the donation of allogeneic skin for transplantation.

Evaluation of structural damage and pH of nail plates of hands after applying different methods of decorating
ConclusionsThe methods used to prepare nails for decoration and all methods of removing the applied preparations damage the healthy nail plates. The most common changes are brittleness and nail splitting. The nail polish remover causes less damage than acetone, and the use of a nail drill machine and nail file causes the greatest destruction of nail plates. The biggest effect on the pH change has the gel polish hybrid, gel nail, and acrylic nail powder, causing the pH value of nail plates to rise above 6.0, whereas after the application of the nail polish, the pH of the plates was on average 5.8 which is closest to the nor...

Gardner ‐Diamond syndrome: a systematic review of treatment options for a rare psychodermatological disorder
AbstractGardner ‐Diamond syndrome (GDS) is a rare psychodermatological condition characterized by the formation of spontaneous, painful skin lesions that develop into ecchymosis following episodes of severe physiological or psychological stress. The majority of GDS cases occur in young adult females, and although the etiology of this rare disorder is unknown, there appears to be a psychological component correlated with the coexistence of previous psychiatric diagnoses. Due to the rare nature of this disorder, there exist few guidelines for prompt clinical diagnosis and optimal treatment. Here, a systematic review was co...
