Abstract
Rosacea diagnosis and treatment in children are challenging, due to its rarity and to the lack of approved pharmacological agents for its treatment in this age group. In this case series, response to treatment with once daily applications of ivermectin (IVM) 1% cream for 12 weeks in 10 children affected by mild to severe inflammatory rosacea was evaluated clinically by Investigator Erythema Severity Assessment (IESA), Investigator Global Assessment of Severity (IGA-S), Investigator Global Assessment score of Global Efficacy (IGA-GE), and instrumentally by dermoscopy and Erythema-Directed Digital Photography (EDDP). Clinical improvement was achieved at the end of treatment compared to baseline (IESA: 2.3 vs. 0.5; IGA-S: 2.1 vs. 0.3) and confirmed by IGA-GE (0 = 55%, 1 = 33%, 3 = 11%) and instrumental monitoring (EDDP: 2.7 vs. 0.6). Once daily IVM application may be an effective therapeutic option for children with rosacea.
儿童红斑痤疮的诊断和治疗具有挑战性,因为这种疾病非常罕见,而且在这一年龄段的儿童中缺乏经批准的药物治疗。在这个病例系列中,我们通过研究者红斑严重程度评估(IESA)、研究者全球严重程度评估(IGA-S)、研究者全球疗效评估评分(IGA-GE),以及皮肤镜和红斑定向数字摄影(EDDP)等仪器,对10名轻度至重度炎性酒渣鼻患儿每天使用一次1%伊维菌素(IVM)乳膏治疗12周的反应进行了临床评估。与基线相比,治疗结束时临床症状有所改善(IESA:2.3 vs. 0.5;IGA-S:2.1 vs. 0.3),IGA-GE(0 = 55%,1 = 33%,3 = 11%)和仪器监测(EDDP:2.7 vs. 0.6)证实了这一点。每天使用一次 IVM 可能是酒糟鼻患儿的有效治疗选择。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
