Lichen simplex chronicus (LSC) is a disorder characterized by thickened areas of skin from repeated rubbing or scratching. The multifactorial nature of LSC makes management difficult and there are currently no evidence-based guidelines for treatment. We conducted a systematic review of the literature to evaluate treatments for LSC and provide an evidence-based summary of the current treatments as well as highlight novel therapies. A total of 21 studies were included which comprised 682 patients with LSC involving various areas. The most robust evidence was seen with the use of topical corticosteroids (n?=?7 RCTs) and limited data suggest benefit with other treatments such as topical immunomodulators, topical antipruritic agents, oral antihistamines, antiepileptics and antidepressants. We also discuss novel treatment approaches using transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, focused ultrasound, and phototherapy. Despite emerging evidence there remains a paucity of high-quality studies supporting treatments for LSC and larger controlled trials are needed.

Treating atopic dermatitis (AD) is still a challenge. The staphylococcal skin load is known to aggravate AD. Narrow band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) and glycerol in low concentration (20–40%) are established therapies for AD. NB-UVB has proven antimicrobial actions, while high concentration glycerol (85–100%) showed similar effects in vitro but has not been clinically tested.

In this case series, the authors report three patients with severe atopic dermatitis who presented with epiphora and conjunctivitis while undergoing dupilumab therapy. On clinical examination, all patients were found to have punctal stenosis, with one case having progressed to punctal obstruction. An assortment of strategies was elected, including discontinuation of dupilumab, treatment of conjunctivitis, and surgical intervention with probing, punctoplasty, and silicone intubation. This report spotlights punctal stenosis as an important new side effect of dupilumab and suggests that additional cases of dupilumab-associated lacrimal drainage impairment will continue to emerge.

Acne vulgaris is one of the most common chronic inflammatory skin disorder affecting millions of people worldwide. Vitamin D deficiency has a role in various inflammatory skin diseases as acne. This study aimed to investigate the serum level of 25 hydroxy vitamin D in acne patients and to assess the efficacy and safety of active vitamin D in management of acne. This study was conducted on 100 patients with acne and 100 healthy controls, then the 100 acne patients were randomized to either the study group that received 0.25ug alfacalcidol daily or the placebo group that received oral placebo during the 3?months study period. Serum levels of 25-hydroxy-vitamin D were significantly lower in acne patients than in healthy control and were inversely correlated to the severity of acne. After alfacalcidol administration, the study group showed significant higher level of 25(OH) D levels (p?<?.05) compared to placebo group. In addition, median serum level of IL6 and TNF? significantly decreased (p?<?.05) in the study group in comparison to placebo group and as compared to their baseline results. Acne patients are more commonly to have vitamin D deficiency as compared to healthy people and hence, alfacalcidol might have a beneficial role in the acne management with no reported side effects.

Broadband light (BBL) is one of the intense pulsed light. BBL treatment for nonablative, noninvasive skin tightening and rejuvenation reportedly elicits satisfactory clinical outcomes. Up until now, self-controlled case series with objective evaluation of efficacy of facial pores in response to BBL treatment have not been reported. We aimed to assess its safety and efficacy on enlarged facial pores by objective measuring technique.

Recalcitrant dermatophytoses is on the rise. With increasing microbiological resistance and clinical failures reported to terbinafine, itraconazole (ITR) is being increasingly used for the condition. ITR has an unpredictable bioavailability and quality variation among brands is known to affect clinical outcome. Bioequivalence to innovator brand is often not established and many spurious brands have flooded the market. Morphometric characteristics of the pellets, especially their count, size, and surface area impact dissolution of drug in the gastrointestinal tract, as per the Noyes–Whitney equation. It would be of value to clinicians to be able to differentiate good quality from poorly manufactured brands to achieve optimum clinical results, especially when rigorously done bioequivalence studies are not available.

Extra-mammary Paget’s disease is a rare form of intraepithelial adenocarcinoma with a variable pattern of invasion. Vulvar Paget’s disease represents 1% of all vulvar cancers. Standard treatment is surgical excision, however, the recurrence rate is high and surgery leads to anatomical, functional and sexual morbidity. Some studies suggest the efficacy of photodynamic therapy following CO2 Laser irradiation as treatment for this disease.

The incidence of skin cancer has raised in the last few years. One of the important growth factors found in the skin layers is insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1. It is directly linked with many cancers in different organs. Therefore, we aimed to explore the therapeutic effects of blocking IGF-1 receptor (IGF-R1) pathway by PQ401 in skin cancer as well as studying its effect on tumor invasion markers.
