Dermatologic comorbid symptoms and conditions in persons with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are compelling for several reasons, including problems with tactile sensory dysfunction in this population, a large number of syndromes with dermatologic findings and high rates of autism, nutritional and hormonal problems in ASD and their dermatologic manifestations, and the potential for overrepresentation of dermatologic symptoms that are neurobehavioral in nature. The current article reviews the available literature on the prevalence of comorbid dermatologic symptoms and conditions in children with ASD and identifies strategies for diagnosing and managing cutaneous disease in this population.

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays crucial inflammatory modulating roles, representing a promising candidate for anti-inflammatory therapies. However, current H2S delivery approaches lack sufficient specificity against inflammatory response. Herein, regarding the overexpressed aminopeptidase N (APN) at the inflammation sites, an APN-activated self-immolative carbonyl sulfide (COS)/H2S donor (AlaCOS) was developed for inflammatory response-specific H2S delivery.

Background: Immunosuppressive agents like cyclosporine have proven effective in some pediatric cases, although there are limited case reports considering potential risks such as secondary infections.
Objective: This study investigated the safety and efficacy of Cyclosporine A in children who did not respond to high-dose corticosteroids combined with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG).
Methods: We reported four pediatric patients diagnosed with toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) received treatment at our institution.

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is an infection caused by the Leishmania protozoa, which are primarily transmitted through bites of infected female sandflies. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the clinical management of CL, including an in-depth analysis of its epidemiology, prevention and control measures, diagnostic modalities - particularly molecular and serological, differential diagnosis with other lesions, and treatment options. Also discussed are recent concerns regarding the endemicity of CL, with a focus on the significant rise in travel-related cases as well as locally acquired cases, providing insight into the changing epidemiological landscape.
