Hormonal Therapies for Acne: A Comprehensive Update for Dermatologists.

Introduction: Acne impairs quality of life, often leads to permanent scars, and causes psychological distress. This review aims to update dermatologists on the Federal Drug Administration (FDA)-approved and off-label use of combined oral contraceptives (COC), clascoterone, spironolactone, and emerging hormonal therapies for acne treatment.

Methods: We reviewed current literature on hormonal acne treatments and discussed common patient concerns, barriers to care, and individualized care needs.

Building-level wastewater surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 is associated with transmission and variant trends in a university setting.

The University of South Carolina (UofSC) was among the first universities to include building-level wastewater surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 to complement clinical testing during its reopening in the Fall 2020 semester. In the Spring 2021 semester, 24h composite wastewater samples were collected twice per week from 10 residence halls and the on-campus student isolation and quarantine building. The isolation and quarantine building served as a positive control site.
