Response to biological drugs and JAK inhibitors following cyclosporine in patients with atopic dermatitis.

The therapeutic arsenal for atopic dermatitis (AD) has increased in recent years. The use of biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) is advocated following failure or contraindication to cyclosporine (CSA), however, it is not known whether treatment with CSA can impact the response to biologics or JAKi. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of previous treatment with CSA on response to biologics or JAKi in patients with AD.

Generational differences in perceived severity of atopic dermatitis.

Introduction: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis that affects all age groups. The impact of AD on patients' lives could differ across generations. Understanding the differences in objective and subjective severity of AD between generations may support more personalized care for the AD patients.

The Impact of Atopic Dermatitis on Sexual Function and Reproductive Desires in Women.

Atopic dermatitis is a prevalent skin condition that affects up to 17% of adult population. It can lead to itching, pain, and other symptoms such as sleep disturbance, anxiety, and depression. Due to its high prevalence and limiting symptoms, atopic dermatitis often has a great impact on patients' quality of life but there is scarce information regarding how atopic dermatitis affects women's sexual health and reproductive desires.

Effects of COVID-19 Pandemic on the Diagnosis of Melanoma and Keratinocyte Carcinomas: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Since December 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic has profoundly affected healthcare. The real effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on skin cancer are still unclear, more than 3 years later. This study aims to summarise the pandemic's impact on skin cancer diagnosis and outcome.

Pilonidal Sinus Disease is Associated with Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa in a Spanish Cohort.

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the hair follicle with a high level of morbidity. Pilonidal sinus disease is a comorbid disorder and may be the reason for first contact with the healthcare system of patients with hidradenitis suppurativa. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of association of pilonidal sinus disease and hidradenitis suppurativa and to explore whether pilonidal sinus disease defines a different clinical profile for patients with hidradenitis suppurativa.

Perceptions of medical students toward teledermatology as an educational tool: a cross-sectional study.

Introduction: Teledermatology consultations have recently been on the rise, especially due to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. The role of teledermatology has been extensively discussed as a mean for the education of dermatology residents. Nevertheless, little has been explored on its use as a pedagogical tool for medical students.

The impact of dupilumab on skin barrier function: A systematic review.

Skin barrier dysfunction plays an important role in atopic dermatitis (AD) aetiopathogenesis. Dupilumab, a drug that inhibits IL-4 and IL-13, is an effective treatment for AD but there is scarce evidence about its impact on epidermal barrier. The objective of this systematic review is to evaluate the influence of dupilumab on skin barrier in patients with AD using non-invasive tools.

Improvement of Sexual Function and Sleep Quality in Patients with Atopic Dermatitis Treated with Dupilumab: A Single-Centre Prospective Observational Study.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease presenting as xerosis, eczema and intense pruritus. These symptoms negatively impact patients' quality of life. However, the effect of AD on sexual function and sleep quality and how treatment with dupilumab could modify them have not been explored in depth.

The threat of mosquito-borne arboviral disease in Spain: A bibliographic review.

Over the last two decades there has been an increase in outbreaks of arboviral diseases, being Spain at high risk for disease emergence. This paper reviews the current evidence regarding the transmissibility, disease epidemiology, control strategies and mosquito-borne disease drivers and maintaining factors in Spain. There is risk of autochthonous cases and outbreaks in Spain due to recent transmission occurrence.
