Objective: To retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of patients with primary cutaneous lymphoma.
Methods: The clinical data of 22 patients with primary cutaneous lymphoma admitted to Xinjiang Hotan District People's Hospital, Heji Hospital affiliated to Changzhi Medical College and the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from January 2013 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.
Results: The incidence of primary cutaneous T cell and NK/T cell lymphoma was about 91.9/100 000, and the incidence of primary cutaneous B cell lymphoma was about 14.5/100 000. The overall survival (OS) of patients aged ≥65 years was significantly shorter than that of patients younger than 65 years ( <0.05). Patients with elevated β-microglobulin (β-MG) had shorter OS and progression-free survival (PFS) (both <0.05). Patients who achieved complete/partial response after initial treatment had longer OS than those with stable or progressive disease ( <0.05). There were significant differences in OS and PFS among patients with different pathological types of primary cutaneous lymphoma that originated from T and NK/T cells, the OS and PFS of patients with mycosis fungoides were longer than those of patients with other pathological types (both <0.05). In addition, disease stage might also affect the PFS of the patients ( =0.056).
Conclusion: The age, disease stage, β-MG level, pathological type and remission state after treatment of the patients were related to the clinical prognosis.

Trauma and burns are leading causes of death and significant global health concerns. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play a crucial role in post-transcriptional gene regulation, influencing various biological processes of cellular RNAs. This study aims to review the emerging trends and key areas of research on RBPs in the context of trauma and burns.

Sebaceous carcinoma is a rare cutaneous malignancy of sebaceous glands, but it is up to 25-fold more common in immunosuppressed individuals. In this narrative review, we examine the current literature on the pathogenesis, incidence, risk factors, prognosis, treatment, and surveillance of sebaceous carcinoma in immunosuppression and highlight practical considerations for providers who care for these patients. Increased incidence may be related to decreased immune surveillance, susceptibility to an unknown viral trigger, microsatellite instability, immunosuppressive medications, and unmasking of occult Muir-Torre Syndrome.

Background: Topical retinoids, while renowned for their efficacy in treating acne vulgaris, are often hampered by inter-individual variability in tolerability. This challenge, primarily driven by side effects like erythema, scaling, and dryness, significantly impacts patient adherence and, ultimately, treatment outcomes.
Aims: This prospective, multi-center, observational study investigated the novel role of a specific dermocosmetic regimen as adjunctive therapy, focusing on its ability to mitigate retinoid-induced side effects and enhance the overall tolerability of acne treatment regimens in a Korean population.
