Background: Little is known about the prevalence of dermatoses in "skin-well" geriatric Singaporeans. We aim to identify the prevalence of dermatoses and their associations within the geriatric population in Singapore, and to understand the distribution of dermatological encounters presenting to primary care physicians, and the resultant referral behaviour.
Methods: A joint quantitative-qualitative study was performed across 8 months.

Purpose: Treatment with Palbociclib, a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor, has demonstrated significantly improved progression-free survival in patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative, advanced breast cancer, when used in combination with letrozole or fulvestrant endocrine therapies. However, limited information exists on its cutaneous adverse effects (AE). Hence, we conducted a retrospective cohort study to investigate the prevalence and management of cutaneous AE during palbociclib and endocrine therapy.
