Precision in Language Regarding Geographic Region of Origin in Severe Cutaneous Adverse Drug Reaction Research
In this study, the authors reported a subgroup analysis of severe cutaneous adverse reactions by geographic region of origin inclusive of Japanese, Malaysian, Taiwanese, Thai, and European individuals. The level of granularity in analysis and reporting conducted by Wu et al on the geographic region of origin of patients is an important reminder of the genetic and clinical variation that can exist within populations that are often racialized into large heterogeneous groups.

Quest for a More Accurate Diagnosis of Cellulitis
For most physicians, cellulitis is one of the classic “I know it when I see it” diseases, in which a diagnosis is rendered, antibiotics initiated, and the patient is quickly out of sight and out of mind. Unfortunately, being common and being simple are not the same, and more than one-third of patients suspected to have cellulitis are incorrectly di agnosed. The cumulative burden of misdiagnosis results in unnecessary antibiotic use, hospitalizations, and tremendous health care expenditures. (Source: JAMA Dermatology)

Considerations Regarding Mohs Surgery for Early-Stage Merkel Cell Carcinoma —Reply
In Reply We appreciate the interest in our article by Faries and Venna et al as well as their comments on the analysis. While we agree that there are inherent limitations to retrospective studies of survival outcomes using registry data, we believe that it is prudent to glean what insights we can from these datasets given the lack of large-scale studies of rare cancers, such as Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), in the existing literature.
