Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of late-onset axial spondyloarthritis (lo-axSpA) and to identify clinical, laboratory, and imaging features associated with this phenotype.
Methods: This single-center, observational study included patients diagnosed with axSpA from the "Reuma-check" SpA program. Patients with a symptom onset ≥ 45 years were classified as lo-axSpA, as opposed to early-onset axSpA (eo-axSpA, onset < 45 years).

In atopic dermatitis (AD), the real-world impact of achieving itch and skin lesion treatment targets compared to partial improvement remains unclear. We assessed the relationship between itch relief (reduction in Worst Itch Numeric Rating Scale [WI-NRS]) and skin clearance (Investigator Global Assessment [IGA] 0/1) with other patient-reported outcomes. Using TARGET-DERM AD registry data on adults receiving standard-of-care treatment, we described and modeled the relationship of itch severity (Worst Itch Numeric Rating Scale [WI-NRS]) and skin lesion severity (IGA) outcomes with patient-reported (quality of life ([DLQI)], AD severity [(POEM]), sleep ([Sleep-NRS]), and skin pain [(Pain-NRS]).

Factors like venous insufficiency, lymphedema, and recurring episodes increase the risk of relapse, complicating treatment strategies. Although antibiotics and limb elevation are standard care, severe cases may require surgical intervention.

Introduction: Prurigo nodularis (PN) is a chronic skin condition characterized by intense itching from nodular skin lesions. Despite its impact on patients' quality of life, limited data exist on its epidemiology.
Methods: A national register-based study in Denmark was conducted, utilizing data from Danish national health registers to determine the incidence and prevalence of PN diagnosed in hospitals from 1995 to 2021 and to explore the occurrence of comorbidities.
