Background/objectives: Efficacy and safety of roflumilast cream 0.15% were demonstrated in patients aged ≥ 6 years with atopic dermatitis (AD) in two Phase 3 trials. This Phase 3 parallel-group, double-blind trial (INTEGUMENT-PED; NCT04845620) compared the efficacy and safety of roflumilast cream 0.05% and a vehicle in patients aged 2-5 years with AD.

Methods: Patients aged 2-5 years with mild-to-moderate AD were treated with once-daily roflumilast cream 0.05% or vehicle for 4 weeks. The primary efficacy endpoint was Validated Investigator Global Assessment for AD (vIGA-AD) Success (0 [Clear] or 1 [Almost Clear] plus ≥ 2-grade improvement from baseline) at Week …

Comparison Of The Efficacy Of Topical Cetirizine 1% Versus Topical Minoxidil 5% Solution In Treatment Of Male Androgenetic Alopecia, Hadeer Samy Abd-Elfattah, Bothaina Mahrous Ghanem, Farid Abd-Elreheim Badria, Mohammed Samir Sultan

Mansoura Medical Journal

Background: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a common form of non-scaring hair loss characterized by extensive miniaturization of scalp hair follicles. Minoxidil is a standard topical treatment. Cetirizine, an antihistamine with anti-inflammatory properties, may be beneficial by modulating prostaglandins—specifically by inhibiting PGD2 and promoting PGE2, both of which have essential roles in hair cycle regulation. Aim: To compare the efficacy and safety of topical cetirizine 1% versus minoxidil 5% in treating male AGA. Patients and Methods: Forty male patients were randomly allocated in this randomized controlled study to receive topical cetirizine 1% or minoxidil 5%. Clinical photographs and dermoscopic evaluations were …

A Linear Presentation Of Cutaneous Rosai Dorfman Disease, Emily Sheetz, Ryan C. Saal, Molly K. Smith, Rachel Chikowski Byrd

Department of Medicine Faculty Publications

[Case description] A 53-year-old female with type II diabetes and hypertension presented to the dermatology clinic with a 3-month history of an asymptomatic linear eruption along the right knee that extended distally along the shin. Initial biopsy showed an atypical lymphohistiocytic infiltrate (Fig 1), which was found to be polyclonal. At her 3-month follow up visit, the eruption demonstrated significant clinical progression with numerous indurated papules and papulonodules, some of which were tender, along the right knee and pretibial surface (Fig 2). No improvement was noted with topical triamcinolone prescribed at her initial visit.

Delayed Tooth Eruption As An Early Clinical Indicator Of Genetical Tooth Agenesis: A Family-Based Study Of Cases With Whole-Exome Sequencing, Yu-Chen Jeng, I-Ting Chen, Hui-Ching Cheng, Hsin-Yu Huang, Chao-Kai Hsu, Yu-Fen Yen

Journal of Dental Sciences

Delayed tooth eruption is frequently considered a benign developmental variation but may represent an early sign of genetically driven tooth agenesis. We evaluated a 22-month-old female presenting with markedly delayed eruption (only eight primary teeth) and a positive family history of ectodermal features. Given the inconclusive early radiographic findings, whole-exome sequencing (WES) was utilized. WES revealed the proband carried a heterozygous EDARADD variant (NM_080738:c.328G>T; p.Asp110Tyr). Subsequent familial segregation analysis identified an additional heterozygous WNT10A variant (NM_025216:c.637G>A; p.Gly213Ser) within the broader family. The EDARADD variant alone was associated with varying presentations from normal dentition to delayed eruption. Furthermore, the …

Petechiae And A Persistent Violaceous Nodule: A Presentation Of Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm To Dermatology., Madison Anzelc, Christina Druskovich, Austin Cusick, Matthew Franklin

Ambulatory and Primary Care Articles

Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare, highly aggressive CD4+ CD56+ hematopoietic malignancy. The cutaneous presentation is variable but often includes violaceous nodules. We present a rare case of BPDCN, which featured dermatological findings consisting of erythematous macules, petechiae, purpura, and a violaceous nodule. A skin biopsy and peripheral blood smear supported a diagnosis of BPDCN. With BPDCN favoring cutaneous involvement, we urge dermatologists to be aware of the possibility of a BPDCN diagnosis in patients who present with purpuric nodules and petechial skin findings, especially when it is not easily explainable by another pathology or medication.
