Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Training in Internal Medicine Residents
Clinical AND Health Affairs Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Training in Internal Medicine Residents BY MOLLIE ALPERN, MD, QI WANG, MS, AND MEGHAN ROTHENBERGER, MD Common allergic conditions such as allergic rhinitis, asthma and antibiotic allergies are frequently encountered by internal medicine physicians. These conditions are a significant source of health care utilization and morbidity. However, many internal medicine residency programs offer limited training in allergy and immunology. Internal medicine residents’ significant knowledge deficits regarding allergy-related content have been previously identified. We conducted a survey-based study to examine the knowledge and self-assessed clinical competency of residents at an academic medical center to determine the need for further education in allergy and immunology. Our study revealed that the majority of these residents did not feel adequately prepared to treat allergic rhinitis, urticaria, contact dermatitis, antibiotic/drug allergies or anaphylaxis; and only half felt adequately trained to treat asthma. We believe that internal medicine residency programs should provide trainees with additional education in allergy and immunology in order to improve their knowledge and clinical competency.

Immunodermatology
Editorial Volume 8:2,2021 Journal of Dermatology and Dermatologic Diseases ISSN: 2684-4281 Open Access Editorial Note on Immunodermatology Bindu Madhavi* Department of Biotechnology, Vignan’s University, Vadlamudi Editorial Immunodermatology studies the skin as an invulnerable organ of both health and infection. Many ranges, such as photographic immunology (impacts of ultraviolet light on skin resistance), provocative diseases, are uncommonly considered, For starters, unfavourably prone contact dermatitis and atopic inflammation of the skin, immune system-related skin conditions such as vitiligo and psoriasis, and finally, the immunology of microbial skin infections such as retrovirus contamination and impurity. This area has some experience treating non-susceptible interceptible skin diseases like lupus, bullous pemphigoid, pemphigus vulgaris, and other skin problems that can be safely intervened. The skin has a great influence on ensuring shape against infection as an unpredictable invulnerable organ. Inalienable resistance requires an early reaction to remote antigens, so it is not a specific pathogen, whereas an adjustable reaction to the differentiation of antigens and the advancement of memory is specific, but it takes more time to function. Infections have strengthened mechanisms to prevent their descendants from contaminating or discharging the skin-resistant reaction. By managing a rapid invulnerable response, with abnormal levels of protective antibodies to their target viral antigens, immunizations may safeguard against infections. -
