Dermatology Publications in Saudi Arabia: A Fast-Growing Pattern.

Bibliometric analysis provides an accurate report of the quantity and quality of research affiliated with a specific country. We aimed to use bibliometric analysis to evaluate previously published dermatology-related studies from Saudi Arabia (SA). We conducted a retrospective, cross-sectional bibliometric analysis using the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases to retrieve all SA-affiliated dermatology research from the databases' respective dates of conception to July 9, 2021.

Improvement of atopic dermatitis and alopecia universalis with dupilumab.

Dupilumab is an interleukin-4 receptor alpha antagonist that showed significant improvement of atopic dermatitis (AD). Many reports have shown significant resolution of alopecia areata, alopecia universalis and alopecia totalis after dupilumab treatment for AD. We present one of reported cases that showed improvement of underlying alopecia universalis treated with dupilumab.

Background Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic and recurrent inflammatory disease with a global prevalence of 1-4%, characterized by multiple painful nodules, abscesses, and fistulas that form scars in intertriginous regions (i.e., inguinal, axillary, mammary).

Dermatology workforce over a decade in Saudi Arabia: demographics, distributions, and future challenges.

Background: The dermatology workforce is an important topic, as many countries are facing an undersupply of dermatologists, while some are expecting a surplus. Therefore, we conducted this study to identify the current dermatology workforce demographics in Saudi Arabia (SA) and the changes in such demographics over the last 10 years to identify future workforce-related challenges.

Methods: This study was conducted in SA, and it included all the practicing dermatologists in the country over the last decade (2010-2020).

Erythema ab igne masking cutaneous metastasis of colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Skin metastasis commonly manifest as subcutaneous or intradermal violaceous nodules that coalesce with a firm rubbery appearance. Few cases reported an erythema -like appearance in the presence of internal malignancy. We report a case of metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma with erythema -like presentation.

Effective reinforcements for thermoplastics based on carbon nanotubes of oil fly ash.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are widely investigated for preparing polymer nanocomposites, owing to their unique mechanical properties. However, dispersing CNTs uniformly in a polymer matrix and controlling their entanglement/agglomeration are still big technical challenges to be overcome. The costs of their raw materials and production are also still high.
