The association of acne conglobata and arthritis is rare and has been reported in only single case reports in the literature. We describe a patient whose associated arthropathy appeared 21 years after the onset of the skin disease. The relevant literature is reviewed.

Associated diseases and their effects on disease course in patients with chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis: retrospective experience from a single center.
Clin Rheumatol
January 2025
Division of Pediatric Rheumatology and Nephrology, Department of Pediatrics, Ankara University Faculty of Medicine, Ankara, Turkey.
Objective: Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is a rare autoinflammatory bone disease associated with other chronic inflammatory diseases such as familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), spondylarthropathies, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and pyoderma gangrenosum. We aimed to describe the clinical and follow-up characteristics of patients with CNO and to compare findings between patients with and without comorbidities.
Methods: The clinical records of patients with CNO who were followed up in our pediatric rheumatology clinic between 2018 and 2023 were reviewed.
Association of childhood obesity or weight change with early-onset follicular occlusion triad among children.
Br J Dermatol

Laboratory of Intestinal Mucosa and Skin Immunology, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Background: The effects of childhood obesity or weight gain on the development of early-onset follicular occlusion triad (FOT) among children, which includes hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), acne conglobata (AC), and dissecting cellulitis of the scalp (DCS), remain unknown.
Objectives: To investigate the association between body mass index (BMI) or its changes and early-onset FOT development.
Methods: This nationwide population-based longitudinal cohort study included a cohort of 2,012,928 Korean children who underwent two consecutive health examinations at 30-36 months and 42-48 months of age between 2009 and 2020.

Article Synopsis
- - A study was conducted on 322 patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) at a Spanish hospital to find out which factors indicate more severe cases of HS and may require aggressive treatment.
- - Results showed that longer diagnostic delays, conditions like acne conglobata, certain cardiovascular risk factors, and perianal or truncal involvement were linked to more severe HS.
- - Interestingly, psychiatric comorbidities did not influence HS severity, while being female and having a family history of HS were associated with an earlier onset of the disease.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze ultrasound features of facial hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and identify concurrent cases of acne vulgaris (AV).
- Researchers examined ultrasound images from 33 patients diagnosed with facial HS and used specific scoring and staging systems to categorize their conditions.
- Results indicated that HS lesions often contained hair tract fragments, while only a small percentage of patients presented with both HS and AV, highlighting differences in lesion characteristics that can aid in diagnosis and treatment.
Article Synopsis
- Acne fulminans (AF) is a severe type of acne characterized by painful, bleeding pustules and ulcerations, which may involve systemic symptoms and lab abnormalities.* -
- A review of 98 relevant articles revealed that different variants of AF present unique clinical features, with androgen-induced AF showing more nodules and cysts, while "miscellaneous AF" tends to have more ulcerations and erosions.* -
- Understanding the different presentations of AF is important for developing personalized treatment plans, leading to a proposed classification based on associated factors.*
