AI Article Synopsis

  • - Two cases of chilblain lupus erythematosus (CLE) were reported that may have been triggered by ultraviolet (UV) nail lamps.
  • - The cases, alongside existing literature, indicate a potential connection between the use of UV nail lamps and the development or reactivation of CLE.
  • - More research is necessary to verify this link, but healthcare providers should be cautious about the risks associated with UV nail lamps, particularly for patients with conditions sensitive to light.

Article Abstract

Two cases of chilblain lupus erythematosus (CLE) potentially triggered by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) nail lamps are presented. These cases, along with a review of the literature, suggest a possible link between UV nail lamp use and CLE development or reactivation. Further research is needed to confirm this association, but healthcare professionals should be aware of the potential risks of this practice, especially for patients with photosensitive conditions.
