Background: Ultraviolet-A1 phototherapy has been used to treat many inflammatory dermatoses.
Aims: To determine the efficacy and safety of ultraviolet-A1 phototherapy in Asian skin.
Materials And Methods: We performed a review of records of patients undergoing ultraviolet-A1 phototherapy at our dermatology unit in Singapore from January 2007 to January 2011.
Background: Topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCIs) are widely used as an alternative to topical corticosteroids (TCSs) in treating of atopic dermatitis, but their risk versus benefit compared with TCSs remains unclear.
Objective: We performed a systematic review of the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of TCI compared with TCS and emollients.
Methods: Published meta-analysis, systematic reviews, and individual studies from January 2005 to January 2015 on the comparative efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of TCI against emollients and TCS were included.
