Muscle cramps in patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) are common and associated with impaired quality of life and symptom burden. Muscle cramps are not currently captured in the 2014 National Institutes of Health (NIH) response criteria, and thus characterization and response to immunomodulatory therapies are lacking. The objective of this study was to characterize muscle cramp frequency, duration, and pain level in patients with steroid-refractory cGVHD undergoing extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP).

Comorbidities of pemphigoid have not been well-described. Identification of comorbidities associated with pemphigoid is important to decrease morbidity and mortality.

- Asthma is commonly found in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), prompting a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore this relationship and asthma's prevalence in these patients.
- The analysis reviewed 213 studies, revealing that 25.7% of individuals with AD also have asthma, compared to 8.1% in the general population, indicating a significant association between the two conditions.
- The study highlights variations in how asthma and AD were defined across research, and recommends that physicians should pay attention to potential asthma symptoms in patients with AD.
Background: It is known that malignant melanoma (MM) survivors are at increased risk of future primary MM. However, the risk for noncutaneous second primary malignancies (SPMs) is not as well-understood.
Methods: An observational study utilizing data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was performed, assessing data from patients diagnosed with primary cutaneous MM to measure overall, as well as specific, tumor type and risk of SPM.
Background: The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Itch Questionnaire (PIQ) was recently developed.
Objective: To validate PIQ short forms in adults with AD.
Methods: Self-administered questionnaires and skin examinations were performed in 239 adults with atopic dermatitis (AD) in a dermatology practice setting.
Background: Alopecia areata (AA) is a common autoimmune alopecia with heterogeneous severity and distribution. Previous studies found conflicting results about AA epidemiology.
Objective: To determine the prevalence, incidence, and predictors of AA, alopecia totalis, alopecia ophiasis, and alopecia universalis.
Purpose: The necessity of serum potassium monitoring for healthy women who are prescribed spironolactone for acne has been debated. The aim of this study was to compare the incidence of hyperkalemia in women 18 to 45 years of age to that in women 46 to 65 years of age, when treated with oral spironolactone for acne.
Methods And Materials: Data for all women 18 to 65 years of age who were prescribed oral spironolactone by a dermatologist for acne between January 2006 and October 2016 were extracted for analysis.
Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) has a variable disease course and intermittent triggers, and responses to topical therapy vary, potentially affecting the magnitude of the placebo response in AD trials.
Objective: To determine the predictors of increased placebo response in randomized controlled trials of AD.
Methods: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials for systemic therapy in AD published during 2007-2018.
Background: Psoriasis is associated with psychosocial distress. Little is known about the relationship between psoriasis and mental health (MH) emergencies.
Objective: To examine the associations of psoriasis and MH hospitalizations in the USA.
Background: Surgery is the standard treatment for genital extramammary Paget disease (gEMPD).
Objective: To determine if gEMPD treatments and outcomes differ by sex and US region.
Methods: A systematic review was performed of all English-language studies on initial gEMPD treatment in Medline via PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.
Background: Allergic contact dermatitis to metals is a significant clinical and public health problem. Little is known about the determinants of polysensitization to metals.
Objective: The aim of the study was to determine the frequency and predictors of nickel co-reactions and metal polysensitization.
Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is associated with skin-barrier disruption, immune dysregulation, and application of emollients and topical medications that might predispose a person toward developing allergic contact dermatitis.
Objective: To determine the predictors of allergic contact dermatitis and relevant allergens in AD.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed for 502 adults (age ≥18 years) who were patch tested to an expanded allergen series during 2014-2017.
Background: Previous studies found conflicting results about whether atopic dermatitis (AD) begins in adulthood.
Objective: To determine rates, predictors, and phenotypic differences of adult-onset AD.
Methods: A systematic review was performed with all published observational studies in Medline, Embase, GREAT (Global Resource of EczemA Trials), LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature), Cochrane Library, and Scopus that analyzed the age of AD onset beyond 10 years of age.
