Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on Generalized Pustular Psoriasis (GPP), a rare and serious skin condition, examining its course, treatment approaches, and how often patients used healthcare services in Portugal from 2002 to 2023.
- - It assessed 59 adult patients, revealing that most had a history of another psoriasis type and faced significant health issues, with 64% requiring hospitalization and many experiencing severe symptoms such as fever and high white blood cell counts.
- - Despite treatment, 98% of patients had at least one flare-up, and only a small number showed improvement by the study's end, indicating a need for better understanding and new treatment options to alleviate the disease's impact.

Introduction: Impulse oscillometry (IOS) parameters are obtained more easily and effortlessly in comparison to forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1).
Objective: To compare IOS parameters to FEV1 in exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) diagnosis.
Methods: Seventy-four (60.
The knowledge of the testicular and ovarian morphology of a particular fish species is of paramount importance. Such analyze enables the development of studies and techniques aiming the improvement of their reproduction, management, commercialization and even their conservation.
