Importance: Individuals with atopic dermatitis are frequently colonized and infected with Staphylococcus aureus. Empirical antibiotic therapy for individuals with atopic dermatitis is common, but data about the antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of S aureus strains isolated from these individuals are scarce for those living in particular geographic areas.
Objective: To determine the antimicrobial susceptibility of S aureus from individuals with atopic dermatitis and analyze differences according to the income level of the country of origin and the data collection period.
Data sources: A meta-analysis of the literature was performed from the inception of the included databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane) to June 20, 2023, using predetermined Medical Subject Headings.
Study selection: Studies were included if they reported antibiotic susceptibility profiles of 1 or more S aureus cutaneous isolates from individuals with atopic dermatitis. Articles written in English, Spanish, French, or German were included.
Data extraction and synthesis: Working in pairs, 6 of the authors conducted the data extraction. The guidelines from the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) were followed.
Main outcomes and measures: The outcome of interest was antimicrobial susceptibility.
Results: A total of 61 studies reported 4091 S aureus isolates from individuals with atopic dermatitis. For 4 of the 11 commonly used antibiotics (36.4%), antimicrobial susceptibility was 85% or less, including for methicillin (binomial proportion, 0.85 [95% CI, 0.76-0.91]), erythromycin (binomial proportion, 0.73 [95% CI, 0.61-0.83]), fusidic acid (binomial proportion, 0.80 [95% CI, 0.62-0.91]), and clindamycin (binomial proportion, 0.79 [95% CI, 0.65-0.89]). Most studies (46; 75.4%) were conducted in high-income countries. Antimicrobial susceptibility to erythromycin, methicillin, and trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole was significantly lower in lower middle-income countries and upper middle-income countries. Regarding the temporal trends, 33 studies (54.1%) reported data collected from 1998 to 2010. Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns have not changed over time.
Conclusions and relevance: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, antimicrobial susceptibility of S aureus to β-lactams, erythromycin, clindamycin, and fusidic acid may be suboptimal for empirical use in individuals with atopic dermatitis. Significant differences in antimicrobial susceptibility patterns were found in high-income countries and in lower middle-income countries and upper middle-income countries for some antibiotics.

Importance: China carries a heavy burden of postherpetic neuralgia, with an unmet need for novel drugs with greater efficacy and less prominent neurotoxic effects than existing calcium channel ligands.
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of crisugabalin, an oral calcium channel α2δ-1 subunit ligand, for postherpetic neuralgia.
Design, setting, and participants: This randomized clinical trial, carried out between November 9, 2021, and January 5, 2023, at 48 tertiary care centers across China had 2 parts. Part 1 was a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study consisting of a 2-week screening period, a 7-day run-in period, and a 12-week double-blind treatment period. Part 2 was a 14-week open-label extension study. Investigators, statisticians, trial clinicians, and patients were blinded to trial group assignments. Participants included adults with postherpetic neuralgia with an average daily pain score (ADPS) of at least 4 on the 11-point Numeric Pain Rating Scale over the preceding week, with the exclusion of patients with pain not controlled by prior therapy with pregabalin (≥300 mg/d) or gabapentin (≥1200 mg/d).
Interventions: Patients were randomized 1:1:1 to receive crisugabalin, 20 mg twice daily (ie, 40 mg/d), and crisugabalin, 40 mg twice daily (ie, 80 mg/d), or placebo for 12 weeks. Eligible patients received crisugabalin, 40 mg, twice daily during extension.
Main outcome and measure: The primary efficacy end point was the change from baseline in ADPS at week 12.
Results: The study enrolled 366 patients (121 patients receiving crisugabalin, 40 mg/d; 121 patients receiving crisugabalin, 80 mg/d; 124 patients receiving placebo; median [IQR] age, 63.0 [56.0-69.0] years; 193 men [52.7%]). At week 12, the least squares mean (SD) change from baseline in ADPS was -2.2 (0.2) for crisugabalin, 40 mg/d, and -2.6 (0.2) for crisugabalin, 80 mg/d, vs -1.1 (0.2) for placebo, with a least squares mean difference of -1.1 (95% CI, -1.6 to -0.7; P < .001) and -1.5 (-95% CI, -2.0 to -1.0; P < .001) vs placebo, respectively. No new safety concerns emerged.
Conclusions and relevance: Crisugabalin, 40 mg/d, or crisugabalin, 80 mg/d, was well tolerated and demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in ADPS over placebo.

ImportanceGermline SUFU pathogenic variants (PVs) have previously been associated with basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS) and multiple infundibulocystic basal cell carcinoma syndrome; however, a broader spectrum of cutaneous findings in patients with SUFU PVs has not been well delineated.ObjectiveTo define the clinical and histopathologic spectrum of cutaneous findings in patients with germline SUFU PVs.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis case series was conducted in multiple US academic dermatology, medical genetics, and medical oncology clinics between July 2014 and July 2022. The study included patients with confirmed germline SUFU PVs who were evaluated by a dermatologist. The analysis took place from March to September 2023.Main Outcomes and MeasuresHistopathologic evaluation of skin biopsies with or without immunohistochemical staining, and targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) on tumor specimens.ResultsAll 5 patients were women. The mean (range) age at presentation was 50.2 (31-68) years, with skin manifestations initially appearing in the fourth to sixth decades of life. None had keratocystic odontogenic tumors. A total of 29 skin pathology specimens from the 5 patients were reviewed; of these, 3 (10.3%) were diagnosed as basaloid follicular hamartomas (BFHs), 10 (34.5%) classified as infundibulocystic basal cell carcinomas (iBCCs), 6 (20.7%) classified as nodular basal cell carcinomas (nBCCs), and 1 (3.4%) as infiltrative basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Targeted NGS studies on tumor specimens suggest that an increased number of UV-signature variants is associated with basal cell carcinomas compared with more indolent basaloid follicular hamartomas.Conclusions and RelevancePatients with germline SUFU PVs may present with multiple indolent basaloid neoplasms in addition to conventional basal cell carcinomas, typically appearing in the fourth to sixth decades of life. Although there are overlapping clinical manifestations, these findings help to differentiate the clinical syndrome associated with SUFU PVs from PTCH1 BCNS. Awareness of the clinicopathologic spectrum of SUFU-associated basaloid neoplasms is important for dermatologists and dermatopathologists because many (although not all) of these lesions are indolent and do not require aggressive surgical treatment. Importantly, because SUFU lies downstream of the protein smoothened, vismodegib and other smoothened inhibitors are unlikely to be effective therapies in this subset of patients.

The analysis took place from March to September 2023.Main Outcomes and MeasuresHistopathologic evaluation of skin biopsies with or without immunohistochemical staining, and targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) on tumor specimens.ResultsAll 5 patients were women. The mean (range) age at presentation was 50.2 (31-68) years, with skin manifestations initially appearing in the fourth to sixth decades of life. None had keratocystic odontogenic tumors. A total of 29 skin pathology specimens from the 5 patients were reviewed; of these, 3 (10.3%) were diagnosed as basaloid follicular hamartomas (BFHs), 10 (34.5%) classified as infundibulocystic basal cell carcinomas (iBCCs), 6 (20.7%) classified as nodular basal cell carcinomas (nBCCs), and 1 (3.4%) as infiltrative basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Targeted NGS studies on tumor specimens suggest that an increased number of UV-signature variants is associated with basal cell carcinomas compared with more indolent basaloid follicular hamartomas.Conclusions and RelevancePatients with germline <jats:italic>SUFU</jats:italic> PVs may present with multiple indolent basaloid neoplasms in addition to conventional basal cell carcinomas, typically appearing in the fourth to sixth decades of life. Although there are overlapping clinical manifestations, these findings help to differentiate the clinical syndrome associated with <jats:italic>SUFU</jats:italic> PVs from <jats:italic>PTCH1</jats:italic> BCNS. Awareness of the clinicopathologic spectrum of <jats:italic>SUFU</jats:italic>-associated basaloid neoplasms is important for dermatologists and dermatopathologists because many (although not all) of these lesions are indolent and do not require aggressive surgical treatment. Importantly, because SUFU lies downstream of the protein smoothened, vismodegib and other smoothened inhibitors are unlikely to be effective therapies in this subset of patients.","PeriodicalId":14734,"journal":{"name":"JAMA dermatology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":10.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142249597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
