Ultrasonic scanning of the digestion organs, carried out in 35 patients with eczema and 20 ones with diffuse neurodermatitis have revealed abnormalities of the liver echostructure in 60% of patients with eczema and in 50% of neurodermatitis patients; abnormal gallbladder echostructure in 65.7% of eczema patients and in 25% of neurodermatitis patients; disturbed echostructure of the pancreas in 34.3% of eczema patients and in 5% of neurodermatitis patients. These abnormalities have not been associated with clinical shifts as a rule. Liver dysfunction and leukocytosis in the B bile have been detectable only in the patients with abnormal echostructure of the organs; these shifts showed a tendency to normalization over the course of treatment irrespective of the skin status. During rehabilitation after discharge from hospital such patients should be kept on diets and administered drug therapy, aimed at the prevention of the digestive organs diseases.

Biologic and small-molecule medications have been approved over the past several decades in treating patients with these inflammatory nail disorders. They may be used in conjunction with longstanding mainstays of treatment (topical and intralesional corticosteroids, topical vitamin D3 analogs).

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, characterized by eczematous skin lesions and pruritus. There is an unmet need for effective first-line systemic therapies with good safety profiles, particularly oral medications. Orismilast is a novel first-in-class oral phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) B/D inhibitor under investigation for the treatment of moderate-to-severe AD.
