Hyperpigmentation at diabetes technology sites may be indicative of evolving Addisons disease
A 12-year-old boy with type 1 diabetes mellitus and coeliac disease reported 2–3 months of skin darkening at his insulin pump cannula and continuous glucose monitor sites (figure 1). For the preceding 9 months, he had localised itching and redness, which had been managed as allergic contact dermatitis by a dermatologist. He continued to use the dressings and these symptoms had improved. Hyperpigmentation was noted over his knuckles and periorally. He had no symptoms of adrenal insufficiency and was gaining weight (98th centile) and height (50th centile). A synacthen test had a suboptimal peak cortisol (370 nmol/L (&g...

Comparison of Old and New Systemic Treatments for Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis
AbstractPurpose of ReviewHistorically, systemic treatments for atopic dermatitis (AD) primarily consisted of immunosuppressive agents such as corticosteroids and Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs (DMARDS), which provided symptomatic relief but often had long-term adverse effects. Newer treatments have shown significant efficacy with less side effects in clinical trials. This review discusses and compares conventional and newer systemic treatments for AD.Recent FindingsNewer medications for AD including dupilumab, tralokinumab, lebrikizumab, and oral JAK inhibitors have been shown to be safe and efficacious. High dose c...

The potential of pumice as a litter material and its influence on growth performance, carcass parameters, litter quality traits, behavior, and welfare in broiler chickens
This study evaluated the possibilities of pumice (light stones) as litter material in broiler production. Experimental treatments included wood shavings (WS), acidic pumice (AP), and basic pumice (BP) alone, and in combination; wood shaving  + acidic pumice (WSAP) and wood shaving + basic pumice (WSBP) in a ratio of 1:1. Two trials were performed, one in summer, and the other in winter. Each trial involved 750 mixed-sex Ross (308) broilers. Also, there were 15 replicate pens with 50 broilers and a stocking density of 12.5 birds /m2 for each pen at the beginning of each trial. Performance, litter quality, carcass pa...

Skin Cancer Risk of Narrow-Band UV-B (TL-01) Phototherapy: A Multi-Center Registry Study with 4,815 Patients
In conclusion, an increased incidence of skin cancers was observed among TL-01 treated patients. It should be confirmed in the future whether the skin cancer risk of TL-01 phototherapy will remain high in a longer follow-up.PMID:38629891 | DOI:10.2340/actadv.v104.39927 (Source: Acta Dermato-Venereologica)
