Topics and PRISMA Checklist Compliance for Meta-analyses in Dermatology: Journal Case Study.

Meta-analyses are usually the final step of systematic reviews and provide robust scientific evidence (1,2). The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) Statement is a useful tool to improve the reporting of meta-analyses (3). There are few data available on the current topics and characteristics of meta-analyses in dermatology or on the clarity and comprehensiveness of the information they report (4-8).

Retronychia a little-known cause of paronychia: A report of two cases in adolescent patients.

Retronychia is a clinical condition resulting from embedding of the nail plate into the proximal nail fold. We report two adolescent girls, 14 and 16 years of age, with a history of chronic proximal paronychia of the great toe, one of them developing osteomyelitis. After failure of treatment with several systemic antibiotics, nail avulsion was performed, leading us to the diagnosis of retronychia and with rapid and complete resolution of symptoms in both cases.
