Objective: Oral Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) have demonstrated high levels of efficacy with acceptable safety in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), yet there remains significant hesitancy among the dermatologic community to use JAKi in elderly populations due to the potential increased risk of serious adverse events in this population. We aimed to perform a retrospective review to describe real-world outcomes for the use of selective JAK-1 inhibitors in patients with AD aged 65 years or older.
Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective review.

Recently, the Assessment in SpondyloArthritis International Society (ASAS) defined early axSpA as a diagnosis of axSpA with a duration of axial symptoms equal to or less than 2 years. Tofacitinib is a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis.
