Dermatitides
Presentation
- CASE: A 22-year-old nulligravid woman presented with symptoms mistaken for Stevens-Johnson syndrome.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The presentation can range from blistering to erythematous papules and vesicles to crusted plaques that resolve with Keflex and topical corticosteroid cream.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Our case raises awareness of the use of Wood lamp and dermoscopy to evaluate for parasitic infections of the pubic hair shafts when nonspecific dermatitis presents in this area.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The pathogenesis of this condition remains unknown and significant variations in the presentation and severity of symptoms complicates its diagnosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The reported varied presentations include lichenoid reactions and bullous pemphigoid, amongst others. We present a severe cutaneous reaction, a case of debilitating erosive lichenoid dermatitis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

- Acute dermatitis has blisters, subacute dermatitis has scaling and crusting, and chronic dermatitis has lichenification.[dermatology.about.com]
- In conclusion, in the present case chronic dermatitis alongside infection with multi-drug-resistant germs led to an immunosuppressive status which, when associated with the presence of multiple skin ports of entry, allowed a mycobacterial infection at[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Night Sweats
- Biopsy of the submandibular lymph node raised the suspicion of Castleman's disease; however, due to the overall incomplete clinical picture (no night sweats, no weight reduction, lack of hepatosplenomegaly and peripheral neuropathy), we decided to perform[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Neurologic
Hyperactivity
- We had performed control LTT in 10 healthy controls and 10 patients with atopy, and such hyperactivity was not observed in any of them. We performed an oral provocation test with OCP containing gestodene combined with ethinyloestradiol.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder does appear to be associated with eczema, but there is no evidence of a causal link. The risk of eczema seems to be increased in urban compared with rural areas.[doi.org]
- While initial studies reported an association with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children, the current concept assumes concentration problems in children might occur secondary as a consequence of the permanent and agonizing itch and sleep[worldallergy.org]
- There were other minor adverse events reported by other studies, including headache, infection, diarrhoea, nausea and bloating, and hyperactivity, but their frequencies were too small to warrant any formal statistical analysis.[doi.org]
Peripheral Neuropathy
- Biopsy of the submandibular lymph node raised the suspicion of Castleman's disease; however, due to the overall incomplete clinical picture (no night sweats, no weight reduction, lack of hepatosplenomegaly and peripheral neuropathy), we decided to perform[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
- […] superinfection Allergy and radioallergosorbent testing is of little value Biopsy shows an acute, subacute, or chronic spongiotic dermatitis pattern that is nonspecific but can be helpful to rule out other conditions (eg, cutaneous T-cell lymphoma) See Workup[emedicine.com]
Treatment
- You can learn more about treatment for AD at: Atopic dermatitis: Diagnosis, treatment, and outcome Finding an undiagnosed medical condition can make AD treatment effective If you have an undiagnosed medical condition, such as a skin allergy, your AD treatment[aad.org]
- Two days after commencing treatment, the patient developed widespread dermatitis (Figure 2) with nausea, malaise, and angioedema. The patient was informed about treatment options and possible side-effects.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- In conclusion, the present guidelines provide evidence‐based guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of dermatitis herpetiformis. Conflicts of interest None declared.[doi.org]
- After 48 months, she remained refractory to medical management and definitive surgical treatment with bilateral oophorectomy was performed.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- In addition, GL treatment reduced the infiltration of CD4 T cells/neutrophils in skin lesions and the percentage of IL-17-/IL-22-producing T cells in lymph nodes.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
- The prognosis of the condition is variable, but it has been shown that resolution of the underlying psychosocial stressor leads to improvement of the skin.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Dermatitis herpetiformis usually has a good prognosis, with the majority of patients responding well to a strict gluten-free diet and medication. The response rate varies between individuals (days to years). See smartphone apps to check your skin.[dermnetnz.org]
- Prognosis Excellent, if you stay on the gluten-free diet. The severity and frequency of eruptions will decrease as you continue with the diet. Iodine can trigger eruptions in some people.[gluten.org]
- DH usually has good prognosis, with the majority of patients responding well to a strict gluten-free diet and medication. The response rate varies between individuals (days to years).[web.archive.org]

Etiology
- A lymph node biopsy is used to confirm the diagnosis of TB and PCR, while positive culture confirms the etiology of TB lymphadenitis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- BACKGROUND: In our country, the Brazilian Standard Series is the most used for the etiological diagnosis of allergic contact dermatitis to shoes. However, there is no assessment of the usefulness of specific allergens for shoes.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Positive association was shown between maternal exposure to increased concentrations of particulate matter and atopic dermatitis. [5] Etiology The etiology of atopic dermatitis appears to be linked both to genetic causes and to environmental agents.[emedicine.com]
- […] estimated to affect 10.7 % (7.9 million) of children, and the wide range in prevalence between regions (8.7–18.1 %) suggests that social and/or environmental factors may play a role in disease expression [ 7 ]. 2.2 Natural History and Mechanism The etiology[doi.org]
- […] keratinocytes, including thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), IL-25, and IL-33. [17] Taken together, these studies highlight a new paradigm in which, in addition to classical adaptive Th2 cells, innate type 2 immune cells play critical roles in the etiology[emedicine.com]

Prevention
- The investigated interventions to prevent OIHD probably cause few or no serious adverse effects.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- OUTCOMES: The cream-to-powder product prevented about 70% of the test dye from reaching the skin surface, demonstrating its ability to supplement the skin barrier.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- As such, questions of effective prevention and treatment of the condition often arise. Nonmedical skincare practices that support healthy skin barrier function can prevent DD manifestation or alleviate the condition in many cases.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The prevention strategy consisted of a two‐part concept, with an evidence‐based prevention programme giving recommendations for prevention of work‐related skin problems in wet work occupations, and a documented method for implementation.[doi.org]
