Comparing the effectiveness of propranolol versus atenolol in inducing clinical clearance in the treatment of infantile haemangioma: A randomised controlled trial
Conclusions: Propranolol (2 mg/kg/day) is better than atenolol (1 mg/kg/day) in inducing complete clinical clearance of IH although the results need to be reproduced in larger studies.

Filaggrin gene mutation in pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis: A look into Indian gene pool, a pilot study
Conclusion: Analyses of mutations already reported showed that the changes detected from this study are novel to Indian traits. While this adds on to the minimal data available from the Indian subcontinent further analyses has to be carried out to analyze the pathogenicity of these detected changes on larger samples sizes.

The correlation between anthropometric variables and muscular strength in patients coinfected with leprosy and HIV
Conclusion: Patients coinfected with HIV and leprosy exhibited greater motor damage than those with isolated diseases. Thus, motor damage may be related to the sum of the neurological manifestations of the two morbidities. (Source: Indian Journal of Dermatology)

Pili torti or 'twisted hair' is characterized by flattened hair shaft twisted through 180 degree around their long axis at irregular intervals. It is inherited or acquired hair shaft disorder with increased fragility. It may be associated with numerous dermatological and systemic conditions or may be drug-induced. An isolated pili torti case is reported which is very rare and the related literature reviewed. (Source: Indian Journal of Dermatology)

Early-stage pilomatricoma with cystic features: A case report and literature review
Kunyong Sung, Chanho Jeong, Seungkoo Lee, Sang-Yeul LeeIndian Journal of Dermatology 2023 68(1):123-123
A conventional pilomatricoma presents as an asymptomatic, firm, subcutaneous nodule, commonly in the head, neck, and extremities of the paediatric population. However, its variants show diverse clinical features, which often pose a diagnostic challenge to clinicians. We recently treated an unusual case of pilomatricoma with cystic features in the upper chest of a 9-year-old girl, which manifested as a single solid tumour floating in a serous-filled sac formed by thick fibrous tissue. Herein, we present novel clinicopath...

Localized pemphigus foliaceus: Diverse presentations, treatment, and review of the literature
We describe five cases of localized PF, two of which were rare locations for the disease in non-photo exposed areas, namely the genitalia and back. Patients were treated with topical corticosteroids and calcineurin inhibitors as well as systemic treatment with corticosteroids and dapsone. Each patient responded to treatment, with two achieving remission. No relapses occurred in any of these cases over a mean follow-up time of 3.7 years. A review of the English literature using MEDLINE® yielded 18 reported cases of localized PF. Most occurred in photo exposed areas such as the nose, cheeks, scalp, and other area...
