This has been an exciting year for the AOCD and for the JAOCD. We believe that both people and organizations have two options: Option 1: Green and Growing Option 2: Ripe and Rotten Both the AOCD and the JAOCD remain very vibrant and growing forces within the osteopathic medical profession. Our leadership, members, residents and student members keep us in the ‘Green and Growing’ phase. We should always focus on what we can do to improve ourselves, our prac- tices, our organization and of course the JAOCD. The EEC has recognized that the JAOCD is an integral part of our organization. Being a training orga- nization, the JAOCD gives our residents and our members a chance and a means to share exciting clinical cases and research with each other. Residents are excited to see their hard work published. Is the JAOCD a perfect journal? Our answer is ‘not yet’. Will the JAOCD become a perfect journal? Maybe and maybe not, but we are committed to ‘CANEI’, that is Constant and Never Ending Improvement. Nobody can ask more from us personally or professionally then to do the best we can, from where we are, with what we have. We hope that you enjoy this issue of the JAOCD. We are committed to making the JAOCD a great journal that can represent the AOCD. We are thankful to have Global Pathology Laboratory, Medicis-The Dermatology Company, Stiefel Laboratory and Galderma as sponsors of the JAOCD. They continue their commitment to the dermatology profession and support the AOCD in all of its endeavors. Jay S. Gottlieb, D.O., F.A.O.C.D, F.O.C.O.O. (Editor) Stanley E. Skopit, D.O., F.A.O.C.D.

These primary care physicians would spend a period of time (much shorter then a standard residency in dermatology) with a board certified dermatologist. They would then be given a certificate to practice as a ‘skin specialist’. This

Urticaria Classification and external resourcesICD-10L50.ICD- 9708DiseasesDB13606MedlinePlus000845eMedicineemerg/628 MeSHD014581Urtic aria (or hives) is a skin condition, commonly caused by an allergic reaction, that is characterized by raised red skin wheals (welts). It is also known as nettle rash or uredo. Wheals from urticaria can appear anywhere on the body, including the face, lips, tongue, throat, and ears. The wheals may vary in size from about 5 mm (0.2 inches) in diameter to the size of a dinner plate; they typically itch severely, sting, or burn, and often have a pale border. Urticaria is generally caused by direct contact with an allergenic substance, or an immune response to food or some other allergen, but can also appear for other reasons, notably emotional stress. The rash can be triggered by quite innocent events, such as mere rubbing or exposure to cold.

Urticarial disease is thought to be caused by the release of histamine and other mediators of inflammation (cytokines) from cells in the skin.

  • Impact of UVA on Pruritus During UVA/B-Phototherapy of Inflammatory Skin Diseases : a Randomized Double-Blind Study
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2017 Impact of UVA on pruritus during UVA/B-phototherapy of inflammatory skin diseases : a randomized double-blind study Maul, Julia-Tatjana ; Kretschmer, Lorenz ; Anzengruber, Florian ; Pink, Andrew ; Murer, Carla ; French, Lars E ; Hofbauer, Günther F L ; Navarini, Alexander A Abstract: BACKGROUND Narrowband (TL-01) UVB phototherapy (UVB nb) is effective in treating inflammatory skin disease. The addition of UVA is traditionally advocated to reduce pruritus, butlacks evidence for this recommendation. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the effect of UVB nb and UVA phototherapy in combination compared against UVB nb monotherapy on pruritus, disease activity, and quality of life. METHODS In this double-blind randomised clinical trial 53 patients suffering from inflammatory skin diseases with pronounced itching (Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pruritus฀5) were randomised in to two treatment groups. One group received UVB nb (311nm) phototherapy alone and another group received a combination of UVB nb and UVA (320-400nm) phototherapy. UV therapy was performed three times per week over 16 weeks. Pruritus (VAS and 5-D itch score), disease activity and quality of life (Dermatology Life Quality Index, DLQI) were assessed at baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, and 16. RESULTS In both treatment groups there was a reduction in pruritus scores, disease activity and DLQI. No difference in pruritus score, disease activity, and quality of life could be detected between thegroup receiving UVB nb alone and those receiving UVB nb combined with UVA.

Description Individuals may acquire a multitude of benign skin lesions over the course of a lifetime. Most benign skin lesions are diagnosed on the basis of clinical appearance and history. If the diagnosis of a lesion is uncertain, or if a lesion has exhibited unexpected changes in appearance or symptoms, a diagnostic procedure (eg, biopsy, excision) is indicated to confirm the diagnosis. The treatment of benign skin lesions consists of destruction or removal by any of a wide variety of techniques. The removal of a skin lesion can range from a simple biopsy, scraping or shaving of the lesion, to a radical excision that may heal on its own, be closed with sutures (stitches) or require reconstructive techniques involving skin grafts or flaps. Laser, cautery or liquid nitrogen may also be used to remove benign skin lesions. When it is uncertain as to whether or not a lesion is cancerous, excision and laboratory (microscopic) examination is usually necessary. II.

Majority of lyme borreliosis cases display cutaneous manifestations; including erythema migrans, borrelial lymphocytoma and acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans. In light of the increasing number of reports describing an association between other cutaneous disorders and Borrelia burgdorferi, this study was planned to investigate the role of Borrelia burgdorferi in the etiology of several dermatosis. Material/methods: 161 patients with pitriasis rosea, chronic urticaria, mycosis fungoides, granuloma annulare, linear scleroderma, erythema annulare, keloid morphea, pseudolymphoma, pityriasis lichenoides chronica, pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta, lichen sclerosus, morphea, granuloma faciale were initially underwent physical examination and blood samples of were obtained to determine the presence of IgM and IgG antibodies. A two-step testing strategy was used. The sera were initially tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and then by Western blot(WB). Demographic data regarding residence, age, sex, profession, tick-bite history, contact with animals, and symptoms concerning skin, nervous system and osteoarticular system were collected using a questionnaire and all results were statistically evaluated by x² test. Results: Of 161 sera of patients with dermatosis, Borrelia IgG and IgM positivities were 20 (12.4%) and 4 (2.5%), respectively.
