Comment on “Patient preference for cellulitis treatment: At-home care is preferred to hospital-based treatment”
To the Editor: We read with interest the recent survey study from Gabel et al1 highlighting the preference of patients for at-home treatment of cellulitis rather than hospital-based care. Notably, these results reflected patient preferences well before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. In light of recent reports linking patient anxiety over COVID-19 to delayed and decreased hospital presentations for acute medical problems such as myocardial infarction2 and stroke,3 we examined whether a similar trend was observed for patients presenting with skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) at an urban tertiary car e center at...

The dream of a good night's sleep for our dermatology patients
Are you getting adequate sleep? Chances are that you are not and the repercussions could be profound. Sleep deprivation has been associated with insulin resistance, diabetes mellitus, obesity, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, anxiety and depression, and an increased risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. Quality of life (QoL) may suffer by poor job performance, an increased risk of accidents, and family stress.1

28464 Hidradenitis suppurativa and association with stroke: Systematic review and meta-analysis
Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by painful nodules, abscesses, sinus tract formation, and scarring. HS has a number of associations with systemic disorders, including cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome. However, the relationship between HS and strokes is not well established. To assess this potential association, a systematic review and meta-analysis was performed.

Role of Exosomes in Dermal Wound Healing: A Systematic Review
Cell-based therapy imparts its therapeutic effects via soluble growth factors and vesicular bodies like exosomes. A systematic review with a meta-analysis of pre-clinical studies was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and the modified Stroke Therapy Academic Industry Roundtable (STAIR) guidelines, to identify exosomes as an archetype biological therapy for dermal wound healing and to provide guidelines for the concentrations to be used in pre-clinical studies.

Antiphospholipid-negative Sneddon's syndrome: A comprehensive overview of a rare entity
Ann Dermatol Venereol. 2021 Nov 2:S0151-9638(21)00096-X. doi: 10.1016/j.annder.2021.08.007. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe term Sneddon's syndrome (SS) has been used since 1965 to describe a vasculopathy characterized by a combination of cerebrovascular disease with livedo racemosa. SS may be classified as antiphospholipid+ (aPL+) or antiphospholipid- (aPL-). Little is known about aPL- SS; in this review we describe the epidemiology and pathogenesis of aPL- SS, as well as the clinical and histologic features. We discuss recent findings in terms of neurologic and cardiac involvement. Moreover, differential diagnoses of c...

Association of autoimmune blistering disease, and specifically, pemphigus vulgaris, with cardiovascular disease and its risk factors: a systematic review and meta-analysis
The objective of the study was to systematically review the relationship of AIBD, including pemphigus vulgaris (PV), and its treatment with CVD and CVD risk factors. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane, LILACS, SCOPUS, and Web of Science were searched. We included all studies of CVD and CVD risk factors in AIBD patients. Two reviewers performed title and/or abstract review and da ta extraction. Pooled random-effects meta-analysis was performed. Forty papers met inclusion criteria. AIBD was associated with higher odds of diabetes (DM) (odds ratio [95% confidence interval]: 1.809 [1.258–2.601]), hypertension (HTN) (1.393 [1.088...

Treatment of facial hypertrophic capillary malformations with tumescent-assisted sclerotherapy
Australas J Dermatol. 2022 Apr 12. doi: 10.1111/ajd.13838. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFacial capillary malformations (CMs) become hypertrophic and nodular overtime and pose great therapeutic challenge. Here, we describe safe and effective use of tumescent-assisted sclerotherapy (TAS) in conjunction with yellow vascular laser (577 nm) for the treatment of HFCMs. Three patients underwent TAS were included in the case series, and complete resolution in nodularity was achieved in all patients with TAS, with no major complications such as skin necrosis, distal embolisation, blindness and neurological adverse events such as s...
