Researchers evaluated two cases of monkeypox infection where patients were also diagnosed with a deep skin bacterial infection. Investigators believe the progression of skin lesions with ulceration may be an entry point for bacteria, according to the study.
Study shows IL-23 inhibitors effective in biologic-naïve and non-naïve psoriasis patients
A new real-world study showed IL-23 inhibitors to be highly effective for the treatment of chronic plaque psoriasis in both biologic-naïve and biologic-non-naïve patients.
Researchers identify immune biomarker that may predict development of pediatric AD
New research has identified an immune biomarker in newborns that may predict the onset and severity of pediatric atopic dermatitis (AD).
New study suggests many pre-invasive melanoma may not be harmful
According to a new study, many pre-invasive melanoma or melanoma in situ may not be harmful or require treatment and are overly diagnosed.
New study highlights significant QoL impairment in patients with photoaggravated AD
According to a recent study, photoaggravated atopic dermatitis (PAD) severely impacts quality of life for patients.
Childhood AD may be linked to parental AD, asthma
According to a recent study, children are more likely to have atopic dermatitis (AD) in the first two years of life if their parents have AD or asthma.
Patients with HS at higher risk of myocardial infarction, new study shows
