  • Role of Corticosteroids in Treatment of Vitiligo
    Chapter 9 Role of Corticosteroids in Treatment of Vitiligo Nooshin Bagherani Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/48384 1. Introduction Vitiligo is the most frequent pigmentary disorder ( Bagherani et al., 2011; Nazer et al., 2011;Yaghoobi et al., 2011a; as cited in Wolff et al., 2007). It is an acquired, idiopathic and progressive skin disease (Bagherani et al., 2011; Shameer et al., 2005; Yaghoobi et al., 2011a), characterized by sharply demarcated depigmented lesions on any part of the body (Van Geel et al., 2004). This disease can also affect hair and mucosal areas such as mouth and genitalia (Gawkrodger et al., 2010). Vitiligo usually begins after birth (Gawkrodger et al., 2010). Regarding the studies retrieved from PubMed since 1995, it has been shown that approximately 50% of the vitiligo cases have its onset before the age of 20 years and 25% before the age of 14 years (Kakourou, 2009). The incidence rate of vitiligo is between 0.1-2% of the world population ( Bagherani et al., 20011; Yaghoobi et al., 2011a,b; as cited in Alkhateeb et al., 2003). Its incidence in those with racially pigmented skin is higher, although reliable figures are not available (Burns et al., 2004; Howitz et al., 1977) . The prevalence has been reported as high as 4% in some South Asian, Mexican and American populations ( Parsad et al., 2003; Sehgal & Srivastava, 2007; Szczurko & Boon, 2008). Both sexes are equally afflicted by vitiligo (Krϋger et al., 2011; Njoo & Westerhof, 2001; Wolf et al.,2007) . In some studies, a female preponderance has been reported ( Burns at al., 2004; Howitz et al.

  • Pruritus: Scratching the Surface
    Pruritus: Scratching the surface Iris Ale, MD Director Allergy Unit, University Hospital Professor of Dermatology Republic University, Uruguay Member of the ICDRG ITCH • defined as an “unpleasant sensation of the skin leading to the desire to scratch” -- Samuel Hafenreffer (1660) • The definition offered by the German physician Samuel Hafenreffer in 1660 has yet to be improved upon. • However, it turns out that itch is, indeed, inseparable from the desire to scratch. Savin JA. How should we define itching? J Am Acad Dermatol. 1998;39(2 Pt 1):268-9. Pruritus • “Scratching is one of nature’s sweetest gratifications, and the one nearest to hand….” -- Michel de Montaigne (1553) “…..But repentance follows too annoyingly close at its heels.” The Essays of Montaigne Itch has been ranked, by scientific and artistic observers alike, among the most distressing physical sensations one can experience: In Dante’s Inferno, falsifiers were punished by “the burning rage / of fierce itching that nothing could relieve” Pruritus and body defence • Pruritus fulfils an essential part of the innate defence mechanism of the body. • Next to pain, itch may serve as an alarm system to remove possibly damaging or harming substances from the skin. • Itch, and the accompanying scratch reflex, evolved in order to protect us from such dangers as malaria, yellow fever, and dengue, transmitted by mosquitoes, typhus-bearing lice, plague-bearing fleas • However, chronic itch lost this function. Chronic Pruritus • Chronic pruritus is a common and distressing symptom, that is associated with a variety of skin conditions and systemic diseases • It usually has a dramatic impact on the quality of life of the affected individuals Chronic Pruritus • Despite being the major symptom associated with skin disease, our understanding of the pathogenesis of most types of itch is limited, and current therapies are often inadequate.

  • Treatment Options for Atopic Dermatitis LUCINDA M
    Treatment Options for Atopic Dermatitis LUCINDA M. BUYS, PHARM.D., B.C.P.S., Siouxland Medical Education Foundation, Sioux City, Iowa Atopic dermatitis is a common inflammatory skin condition that usually affects children. It is a chronic disease, with periods of remission and flare-ups, that adversely affects the quality of life of patients and their families. Aggressive therapy with emollients is an important intervention for patients with atopic dermatitis. Patients should avoid individual disease triggers and aller- gens. Topical corticosteroids are the mainstay of treatment for flare-ups and are the standard to which other treatments are compared. Topical calcineurin inhibitors should not be used in patients younger than two years or in those who are immunosuppressed, and should be second- line therapies in other patients. Rarely, systemic agents (e.g., cyclosporine, interferon gamma-1b, oral corticosteroids) may be considered in adults. (Am Fam Physician 2007;75:523-8, 530.

All target substances were analyzed using solid phase extraction followed by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry.A total of 38 compounds were detected for the first time in snow, including 23 antibiotics, eight hormones, three nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, two antipsychotics, one beta-adrenergic receptor and one hypoglycemic drug. The total concentration of PhACs in snow ranged from 52.80 ng/L to 1616.02 ng/L. The compounds found at the highest mean concentrations included tetracycline (125.81 ng/L), desacetylcefotaxime (17.73 ng/L), ronidazole (8.79 ng/L) and triamcinolone diacetate (2.84 ng/L).
