Background
Functional impairment is the main consideration when it comes to choosing therapy for infantile hemangiomas (IH). However, since most hemangiomas are treated for cosmetic reasons, it is important to know the cosmetic outcome assessed by the parents.
Objective
To evaluate the aesthetic outcomes of IH, considering the characteristics of the lesions and the treatments used.
Patients and methods
The Spanish Infantile Hemangioma Nationwide Prospective Cohort (2016–2022) recruited all consecutive patients diagnosed with IH in 12 Spanish hospitals. The children included had two photos of the IH lesion (at both baseline and at the end of the study). A panel of parents blindly assessed all available photos using a scale from 0 (worst cosmetic outcomes) to 10 (best cosmetic outcomes). The different scores – both before and after treatment – as well as the outcomes percent considered excellent (>9) were described and compared. We analyzed the effect of receiving different therapies and performed causal model analyses estimating the mean treatment effect of parents’ assessments.
Results
The median follow-up was 3.1 years. A total of 824 photos were evaluated. Baseline aesthetic impact was higher in the propranolol group vs the topical timolol and observation treatment groups (1.85 vs 3.14 vs 3.66 respectively; p < 0.001). After treatment, the aesthetic impact was similar between both treatment groups (7.59 vs 7.93 vs 7.90; p > 0.2). The causal model could only be applied to the comparison between topical timolol and observation, revealing no differences whatsoever.
Conclusion
This is the first prospective cohort to analyze the aesthetic outcome of IH. The final aesthetic results of the three therapies were similar, with nearly 40% of patients achieving excellent aesthetic outcomes.
背景:在选择婴儿血管瘤(IH)治疗方法时,功能障碍是主要考虑因素。然而,由于大多数血管瘤的治疗都是为了美观,因此了解家长对美观效果的评估非常重要:患者和方法:西班牙婴幼儿血管瘤全国前瞻性队列(2016-2022 年)招募了西班牙 12 家医院所有连续确诊的 IH 患者。被纳入研究的儿童有两张IH病变的照片(在基线和研究结束时)。一个由家长组成的小组采用 0 分(最差的美容效果)至 10 分(最佳的美容效果)的评分标准对所有可用照片进行盲评。我们对治疗前后的不同评分以及认为效果极佳(大于 9 分)的百分比进行了描述和比较。我们分析了接受不同疗法的效果,并对父母评估的平均治疗效果进行了因果模型分析:中位随访时间为 3.1 年。共评估了 824 张照片。普萘洛尔组的基线美观度高于外用噻吗洛尔组和观察治疗组(分别为 1.85 vs 3.14 vs 3.66;P < 0.001)。治疗后,两个治疗组的美观效果相似(7.59 vs 7.93 vs 7.90;p > 0.2)。因果模型仅适用于局部噻吗洛尔与观察组之间的比较,结果显示没有任何差异:结论:这是首个分析 IH 美学效果的前瞻性队列研究。三种疗法的最终美学效果相似,近 40% 的患者获得了极佳的美学效果。

Although comedones are a prevalent entity in multiple skin diseases, their perianal location as a cluster is a rare finding. We describe 5 patients with grouped perianal comedones who developed the lesions in adulthood and were treatment-naïve in the perianal area. Four of them had had inflammatory lesions in armpits and groins. In 2, the anatomopathological examination revealed the presence of follicular infundibulum dilatation, cystification, and fibrotic and inflammatory changes in the underlying dermis—findings consistent with hidradenitis suppurativa—which is why we wonder whether grouped perianal comedones are a mild form of hidradenitis suppurativa or an isolated entity.

Background and objective
Diagnosis of vibratory urticaria/angioedema is established after performing the vortex provocation test. There is current consensus on measuring the forearm perimeter after running such test to define a positive response to it.
Material and method
We evaluated the frequency of prior symptoms following vibratory stimuli in volunteers using a questionnaire, response to the vortex provocation test in the same volunteers (increase in forearm perimeter, erythema, localized edema, heat, and pruritus), interrater reliability, and correlation between the scores obtained in the questionnaire and response to the test.
Results
A total of 40 volunteers participated in this survey, 17 of whom were excluded due to dermographism. A total of 59% out of 123 without dermographism responded positively to ≥1 items of the questionnaire. Localized erythema, heat or localized edema were reported in 58.5%, 38.2%, and 32.5%, respectively. A total of 73.6% of volunteers presented with itch. The mean intensity of itch was 3.44, 95%CI: 2.94-3.94). Interrater agreement was low regarding the increase in forearm circumference at 3 levels (intraclass correlation coefficient, 0.477, 95%CI: 0.253-0.634; 0.496, 95%CI: 0.280-0.647; and 0.370, 95%CI: 0.100-0.559, respectively) and optimal regarding erythema, heat and localized edema (Kappa index, 0.868; 0.756; and 0.757, respectively). A significant correlation was identified between the questionnaire score and the altered response to the test in its different variables.
Conclusions
We propose the following variables: erythema; localized edema; heat; and the intensity/speed of onset/duration of pruritus to define a positive response to the vortex provocation test given their ease of execution and optimal inter-observer agreement.

Acne keloidalis nuchae (AKN) is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis of the scalp that causes scarring alopecia. The etiology of AKN has been associated with an immune response vs. follicular antigens. AKN is characterized by fibrotic papules and plaques that can converge in tumor-like lesions; subclinical disease has been reported in perilesional areas, which could impact its development. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to reduce morbidity and preserve and minimize healing. Various treatments have been established including optimal medical therapy, surgical excision, and light sources. An updated description of treatments (algorithm included) used for AKN is suggested based on the clinical lesions.

Background and aims
Previous results of the Dermatology-Life-Quality-Index (DLQI) validation in Colombia based on the classical test theory (CTT) perspective have showed the need to delve into its measurement properties. Therefore, we aimed to assess the structural validity, internal consistency and item response analysis of the DLQI through the item response theory (IRT) or the Rasch model.
Material and methods
We assessed the dimensionality of the DLQI, determined its difficulty, discrimination and differential functioning and went on to evaluate its internal consistency and discriminative validity among patients with inflammatory and non-inflammatory skin disease. We recruited Colombian patients with different skin diseases.
Results
Data of 865 patients (mean age, 49.3 years; 61% females) were included. DLQI-scores ranged from 0 up to 30. Internal consistency for dichotomous item #7 showed a McDonald's Omega coefficient of 0.85 (95% CI: 0.84-0.87) and a Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.86 (95% CI: 0.84-0.88). For ordinal item #7, the McDonald's Omega coefficient was 0.87 (95% IC: 0.85-0.89) and Cronbach's α coefficient, 0.84 (95% CI: 0.82-0.87). Horn's parallel analysis revealed the presence of DLQI unidimensionality with a 1-factor solution. Only item #1 fitted the PCM model. The remaining items, including item #9, did not show adequate fit due to overlapping responses and order changes.
Conclusions
The validity of DLQI-COL based on Rasch analysis proved not to be a suitable instrument to evaluate QoL in our dermatologic population. A refined version of the scale with an adequate cross-cultural adaptation and validation process is needed to obtain an appropriate and reliable version of the instrument for QOL measuring in Colombian patients with skin diseases.

Background
Despite advances made in treatments for atopic dermatitis (AD), information on its impact and interaction with atopic comorbidities, such as asthma, rhinoconjunctivitis, and ocular disease is limited. This study aims to assess the clinical-epidemiological characteristics of patients with AD—treatment response included—while taking into consideration atopic comorbidities like these.
Materials and methods
Data were analyzed from the multicenter BIOBADATOP registry (a prospective cohort of AD patients initiating systemic treatment). We conducted a descriptive analysis of the main characteristics collected in the registry in relation to atopic comorbidity.
Results
We included a total of 509 patients, mostly adults (81.9%) with severe AD (73.7%). Patients with personal atopic comorbidity (64%) more frequently exhibited flexural dermatitis (89.7% vs 81.5%), a higher mean of previous systemic treatments (1.6 vs. 1.3), and higher baseline values on the POEM scale (19.6 vs. 17.9). Patients with familial atopic comorbidity (40.7%) had a higher incidence of pediatric/adolescent patients (24.2% vs. 13.9%) and a history of allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (61.1% vs. 47.1%). No differences regarding treatment response were observed at the 6- and 12-month follow-ups based on the presence or absence of atopic comorbidities.
Conclusions
Results suggest that a history of atopic comorbidity is associated with an early onset and persistent course of AD. Although no differences were reported in the short-term treatment response, further follow-up is required to better understand the impact of comorbidities on AD.
背景:尽管特应性皮炎(AD)的治疗取得了进展,但有关其与特应性合并症(如哮喘、鼻结膜炎和眼部疾病)的影响和相互作用的信息却很有限。本研究旨在评估过敏性皮炎患者的临床流行病学特征(包括治疗反应),同时考虑到上述特应性合并症:我们对多中心 BIOBADATOP 登记(开始系统治疗的 AD 患者的前瞻性队列)中的数据进行了分析。我们对登记中收集的与特应性合并症相关的主要特征进行了描述性分析:我们共纳入了 509 名患者,其中大部分为成人(81.9%),重度 AD 患者(73.7%)。个人特应性合并症患者(64%)更多表现为屈曲性皮炎(89.7% 对 81.5%),既往接受过系统治疗的平均比例更高(1.6 对 1.3),POEM 量表的基线值更高(19.6 对 17.9)。有家族特应性合并症的患者(40.7%)中,儿童/青少年患者(24.2% 对 13.9%)和有过敏性鼻结膜炎病史的患者(61.1% 对 47.1%)发病率较高。在6个月和12个月的随访中,没有观察到特应性合并症存在与否导致的治疗反应差异:结论:研究结果表明,特应性合并症与AD的早期发病和持续病程有关。虽然短期治疗反应没有差异,但仍需进一步随访,以更好地了解合并症对AD的影响。

We conducted a descriptive analysis of the main characteristics collected in the registry in relation to atopic comorbidity.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>We included a total of 509 patients, mostly adults (81.9%) with severe AD (73.7%). Patients with personal atopic comorbidity (64%) more frequently exhibited flexural dermatitis (89.7% vs 81.5%), a higher mean of previous systemic treatments (1.6 vs. 1.3), and higher baseline values on the POEM scale (19.6 vs. 17.9). Patients with familial atopic comorbidity (40.7%) had a higher incidence of pediatric/adolescent patients (24.2% vs. 13.9%) and a history of allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (61.1% vs. 47.1%). No differences regarding treatment response were observed at the 6- and 12-month follow-ups based on the presence or absence of atopic comorbidities.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Results suggest that a history of atopic comorbidity is associated with an early onset and persistent course of AD. Although no differences were reported in the short-term treatment response, further follow-up is required to better understand the impact of comorbidities on AD.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":7173,"journal":{"name":"Actas dermo-sifiliograficas","volume":"116 4","pages":"Pages 337-348"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142638321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
