Web application for assisting non-dermatology physicians in learning and managing patients with common cutaneous adverse drug reactions: a multicenter randomized controlled trial.

Background: Cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADRs) remain a challenge for non-dermatologists. Medical-related applications to assist in learning about and managing patients with CADRs are scarce. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a web application for non-dermatologists in managing CADRs by comparing the knowledge scores of users and non-users.

Therapeutic efficiency and safety assessment of intradermal platelet-rich plasma combined with oral tranexamic acid in patients with facial melasma.

Background: Melasma is a chronic, acquired hypermelanosis that primarily affects the face. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and tranexamic acid (TXA) are promising treatments for melasma. However, only a few randomized clinical trials have examined the efficacy and safety of combining these therapies for melasma.

Effectiveness of an epidermal growth factor-containing cream on postinflammatory hyperpigmentation after 1064-nm Q-switched neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser treatment of acquired bilateral nevus of Ota-like macules (Hori's nevus) in Asians: A split-face, double-blinded, randomized controlled study.

Background: Epidermal growth factor (EGF) may promote wound healing and decrease laser-induced postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of an EGF-containing cream on PIH, post-laser erythema, and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) after 1,064-nm Q-Switched Nd: YAG laser treatment of Hori's nevus.

Methods: This is a split-face, double-blinded, randomized, controlled study conducted in 30 subjects with bilateral Hori's nevus.

Adult-onset linear discoid lupus erythematosus on the forehead mimicking en coup de sabre: a case report.

Background: Linear cutaneous lupus erythematosus (LE) is an unusual form of LE-specific cutaneous condition, occurring in children and young adults. Due to its rarity, the diagnosis of linear cutaneous LE can be difficult and facial lesions can resemble linear morphea or en coup de sabre. Differential diagnosis of similar conditions along the lines of Blaschko must be differentiated from linear LE.
