We performed this study as treatment of psoriasis with biologics is often based on short-term response criteria, but patients are often treated long-term, and knowledge about long-term outcome of these response criteria is limited. We found that response early in the treatment predicted risk of drug discontinuation and risk of disease flares, i.e. a low PASI in the first six months is associated with lower risk of disease discontinuation and flares. We feel this paper is important as it provides evidence for guidelines in treatment of psoriasis with biologics.

Bullous pemphigoid constitutes a rare dermatological immune-related adverse event of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors. Herein, we review all published cases of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 related bullous pemphigoid and discuss current knowledge on this condition. Clinical and diagnostic findings were found to resemble those of classic bullous pemphigoid. ...

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a common recurrent inflammatory skin disease. It is associated with multiple comorbidities whose temporal relationships are unknown due to long diagnostic delays. This study of otherwise healthy blood donors with self-reported symptoms of hidradenitis suppurativa investigated the temporal relationships of comorbidities. A prospective survival analysis on a nationwide co ...

Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a common complication of haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This study examined the cutaneous microbiome in relation to the pathogenesis of cutaneous GVHD. Bacterial swabs were taken from several sites on 12 patients with cutaneous GVHD. Microbiotas were characterized by sequencing 16S rRNA bacterial genes on the MiSeq platform. Microbiome diversity in pa ...

Sensitive skin is commonly assessed on the basis of self-reports from patients, and sometimes questionnaires, such as the Sensitive Scale-10, are used. The severity of sensitive skin follows a continuum, from the absence of sensitive skin to very sensitive skin. The aims of this cross-sectional study were to compare subjects with and without symptomatic sensitive skin and to propose diagnostic cri ...

To investigate learning processes underlying nocebo effects on itch, this study measured the efficacy of classical conditioning and observational learning for inducing nocebo effects on cowhage-evoked itch and scratching behaviour. A total of 58 healthy female participants were assigned to classical conditioning, observational learning, or sham conditioning groups. In the classical conditioning gr ...

Human epidermal keratinocytes sense the presence of human skin microbiota through pathogen recognition receptors, such as toll-like receptors, and induce innate immune and inflammatory events. In healthy epidermis there is an absence of inflammation despite the continuous presence of cutaneous microbes, which is evidence of an effective immune regulatory mechanism. The aim of this study was to inv ...

Cathelicidins have been reported to inhibit human papillomavirus infection in vitro; however, nothing is known about their activity in vivo. In this study, experimental skin infection with Mus musculus papillomavirus 1 resulted in robust development of cutaneous papillomas in cyclosporine A-treated C57BL/6J mice deficient for the murine cathelicidin-related antimicrobial peptide (CRAMP), in contra ...

An association between methotrexate use and risk of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma has been reported in patients with rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis. A nested case-control study was performed to investigate if methotrexate use among patients with psoriasis was associated with increased risk of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. Data were obtained from Swedish registers and included 623 pati ...

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic, inflammatory skin disorder that affects the pilosebaceous unit of the intertriginous body areas. Pain is one of the most important problems in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa. The aim of this study, which included 1,795 patients, was to evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of pain. The intensity of pain was assessed with a numerical rating scale ...

Malignant eccrine porocarcinoma is a rare skin adnexal cancer arising from the sweat glands. Little is known about the epidemiology and incidence of eccrine porocarcinoma. This registry-based study examined the epidemiology and incidence data for eccrine porocarcinoma from the Finnish Cancer Registry. The study included all persons diagnosed with eccrine porocarcinoma in 2007 to 2017. There were 6 ...

A systematic literature review was conducted to identify and qualitatively assess randomized controlled trials in immunocompetent patients ≥ 18 years with head- region lesions of actinic keratoses who were treated with field-directed, lesion-directed and other therapies. Network meta-analysis was used to quantitatively evaluate field-directed therapies (5-fluorouracil formulations, diclofenac ...

Early response to treatment with biologics might be important for the stability of psoriasis and long-term outcome. The aim of this study was therefore to assess whether risk of flares and drug survival are associated with disease activity in the first 6 months of treatment of psoriasis with biologics. Biologic-naïve patients from the Danish nationwide registry, DERMBIO, were grouped based on abs ...

The effect of sex on systemic therapy for psoriasis has not been well studied. The aim of this study was to analyse a large multicentre Spanish cohort of 2,881 patients with psoriasis (58.3% males), followed from January 2008 to November 2018, to determine whether sex influences prescription, effectiveness of therapy, and the risk of adverse events. The results show that women are more likely than ...

Basosquamous carcinoma is a rare clinical entity, which comprises 1.7–2.7% of all skin carcinomas. It is described as a basal cell carcinoma with features of squamous differentiation. To date, studies of the epidemiology of basosquamous carcinoma have been few and small in size. We report here the most extensive series of basosquamous carcinomas published to date, highlighting the differences be ...
