Efficacy of Acitretin Monotherapy on Basal Cell Carcinoma: A Case Report
编辑人员丨1周前
Introduction::Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer which mainly affects the population over 50 years of age. In addition to surgical treatment, nonsurgical treatment is also an attractive option for some patients.Case presentation::An 82-year-old man presented with BCC on his left nose wing more than 2 years ago. Due to his unwillingness to accept treatment that may lead to pain, discomfort, or trauma, the patient was prescribed oral acitretin 25 mg twice daily [0.8 mg/(kg·d)] and was instructed to apply 2% fusidic acid cream topically once daily for trauma protection. The lesion progressively shrank in size after 4 weeks of treatment, and was almost completely resolved after 28 weeks of follow-up. The patient reported mild adverse effects, such as mild skin fragility and cheilitis, and apparent scaling skin, which caused minor discomfort but did not affect the continuation of treatment.Discussion::The pathogenesis of BCC is still unclear, but it has been demonstrated to be linked to overactive hedgehog signaling and its crosstalk with other pathways such as phosphoinositide 3-kinase and mammalian target of rapamycin. Acitretin could obviously inhibit cell growth and proliferation and down-regulate AMP-dependent protein kinases that plays critical role in the blocking of malignant progression of several tumors including BCC.Conclusion::We provide an effective alternative for the patients with BCC who are unwilling to receive surgical therapy.

Impact of Adverse Events Associated With Acitretin Treatment of Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis: Based on an Observational, Single-Center Study in Shanghai, China
编辑人员丨1周前
Objective::Acitretin is a widely used systemic retinoid that is to treat psoriasis but has significant variations in efficacy and adverse events (AEs) among individuals. This study aimed to determine the impact of AEs associated with acitretin treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis on the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) scores.Methods::This prospective, observational, single-center study was conducted from March 2021 to June 2022 and analyzed 116 patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis treated with acitretin who were followed up for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was the incidence of AEs related to acitretin, and the secondary objective was to investigate the effect of AEs on the DLQI and HADS scores. The generalized linear models were used to assess the association between AEs related to acitretin and DLQI scores or HADS scores, and the association between the involved system/tissue and DLQI scores or HADS scores.Results::A final total of 45 patients were included in the analysis, and a total of 157 treatment-related AEs involving nine organs or systems were reported in 41 patients. The most common AE was skin- or mucosa-related, with 72 cumulative events in 31 patients. AEs also commonly affected the endocrine, digestive, and genitourinary systems. Compared with the group with 0–2 AEs, the group with 3–5 AEs had a significantly increased DLQI score by 5.49 points (95% CI, 1.47–9.51) ( P = 0.0089). Compared with AEs involving 0 to 1 system, AEs affecting 2 to 3 systems resulted in a significant increase in the DLQI score by 5.75 points (95% CI, 1.67–9.83) ( P = 0.0071). Generalized linear models showed no statistically significant associations between AEs and the HADS scores. Conclusion::Our study demonstrates a high incidence of acitretin-related AEs. These AEs may affect quality of life but rarely cause psychological problems such as anxiety and depression.

口服阿维A对106例儿童身高和骨骼发育影响的回顾性分析
编辑人员丨1周前
目的:分析口服阿维A对患儿身高和骨骼发育的影响。方法:回顾性分析2007年3月至2021年1月于北京儿童医院皮肤科口服阿维A疗程≥ 1个月的106例患儿的临床资料和影像学资料。主要观察指标为身高和接近成年终身高,多因素logistic回归分析患儿身材矮小的影响因素,对已达接近成年终身高者采用非劣效性检验分析身高与遗传靶身高的接近程度。次要观察指标为骨龄、骨骺闭合情况,Wilcoxon符号秩检验分析患儿基线与末次随访时骨龄与时序年龄差值的差异和骨骺早闭情况。结果:106例患儿中,男62例,女44例,84例为脓疱型银屑病,10例为寻常型银屑病,11例为毛发红糠疹,1例为颜面播散性粟粒型狼疮,阿维A治疗剂量<1 mg·kg -1·d -1,疗程1 ~ 90个月;0 ~ 18岁患儿96例,91例(94.8%)身材正常,5例(5.2%)身材矮小;83例阿维A单药治疗的患儿中,81例(97.6%)身材正常,2例(2.4%)身材矮小。二元logistic回归分析结果示,阿维A联合糖皮质激素治疗致身材矮小的风险比阿维A单药治疗增加76.57倍( OR = 77.57,95% CI 2.20 ~ 2 738.82, P = 0.017),而病种、性别、发病年龄和阿维A初始治疗年龄、疗程、平均日剂量对身材矮小的影响均无统计学意义( P值分别为0.988、0.214、0.087、0.078、0.066、0.350)。13例已达接近成年终身高者均身材正常,非劣效性检验示接近成年终身高均不劣于遗传靶身高(Satterthwaite = 0.23, P = 0.030)。比较45例患儿基线与末次随访时骨龄与时序年龄差值,两时间点差异无统计学意义( Z = -0.85, P = 0.250),且治疗前后均未出现骨骺早闭。 结论:本研究初步显示口服阿维A治疗(剂量<1 mg·kg -1·d -1,疗程<90个月)对患儿身高和骨骼发育可能无明显影响。

Characterization of Generalized Pustular Psoriasis in Northwest China: A Single-Center Retrospective Study
编辑人员丨1周前
Objective::This study was performed to investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) in Northwest China.Methods::The clinical data of patients with GPP were retrospectively collected in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2021 and analyzed using the chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test. Results::In total, 179 hospitalized patients were included. The male:female ratio was 1.16:1.00, and the mean age at onset was 35.05 ± 19.11 years. Psoriasis vulgaris was also present in 76.0% of patients, and a family history of psoriasis was present in 15.6%. The mean duration of hospitalization was 10.67 ± 4.31 days, and the mean duration of flares was 29.58 ± 24.32 days. Infections and suspected drugs were predisposing factors. A fever developed in 54.7% of patients, and pruritus developed in 70.9%. Some patients had involvement of the nails (38.0%), scalp (46.9%), and tongue (4.5%). Cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and gallbladder-related disease were common comorbidities. The efficacy of acitretin was 84.7%, that of methotrexate was 66.7%, and that of cyclosporine was 100%. Fifteen patients were treated with secukinumab or adalimumab and responded well. The mean response time was 6.34 ± 2.91 days based on the combination treatments. The mean duration of the treatment regimen was 111.35 ± 94.25 days, and approximately 46.6% ( n = 131) of patients developed recurrence. Conclusion::Our retrospective study showed that most cases of GPP were accompanied by psoriasis vulgaris and associated with fever or pruritus. Acitretin had good therapeutic efficacy, but recurrence should be noted. Biologics are increasingly becoming effective treatments, but their superiority and safety need further research.

编辑人员丨1周前
目的:评价凉血消风汤联合阿维A胶囊治疗寻常型银屑病的疗效。方法:将符合入选标准的2015年3月-2019年6月本院80例寻常型银屑病患者按随机数字表法分为2组,每组40例。对照组在西医常规治疗基础上口服阿维A胶囊,研究组在对照组基础上服用凉血消风汤。2组均治疗2个月,随访6个月。分别于治疗前后进行皮损面积和严重程度指数(Psoriasis Area and Severity Index, PASI)评分;采用ELISA法检测IL-8、IL-6、TNF-α水平,采用Real time PCR法检测组蛋白乙酰化酶(histone acetyltransferase, HATs)、去乙酰化酶(histone deacetylase, HDACs)水平,记录治疗期间不良反应及随访期间的复发情况,评价临床疗效。结果:研究组总有效率为82.5%(33/40)、对照组为62.5%(25/40),2组比较差异有统计学意义( χ2=4.012, P=0.045)。治疗后,研究组PASI评分低于对照组( t=7.921, P<0.01);血清IL-8、IL-6、TNF-α水平低于对照组( t值分别为12.749、13.933、10.856, P值均<0.01);HATs[(35.03±3.79)g/L比(29.26±2.41)g/L, t=8.125]活性高于对照组( P<0.01),HDACs[(31.00±2.71)g/L比(37.55±3.08)g/L, t=10.098]活性低于对照组( P<0.01)。 结论:阿维A胶囊联合凉血消风汤可降低寻常型银屑病患者的炎性细胞因子水平,有效阻止疾病进展,其机制可能与调节乙酰化内稳态平衡有关。

2型糖尿病合并银屑病患者再次感染麻疹1例报告并文献分析
编辑人员丨1周前
目的:分析糖尿病合并银屑病患者发生麻疹再次感染的皮疹特点及诊疗过程,减少该类患者在临床中诊治的延误。方法:对榆林市第一医院2015年4月诊治的糖尿病合并银屑病患者发生麻疹再次感染1例的临床资料结合文献进行分析。结果:患者因多饮多尿3年、发热3 d入院。入院后予以降糖、抗炎治疗效果不佳。3 d后见四肢躯干皮疹。患者既往有麻疹感染病史。结合临床,不排除麻疹病毒感染,故外送查病原体,证实为麻疹病毒感染。考虑系麻疹病毒变异导致的再次感染。由于患者合并银屑病且长期使用阿维A胶囊和卡泊三醇,导致不典型的皮疹。予降糖、抗病毒同时调整抗生素治疗后,体温正常,皮疹逐渐消退。结论:对于2型糖尿病合并银屑病患者,如有发热应综合考虑,警惕麻疹病毒变异导致的再次感染,应及时进行病原学诊断,以免漏诊和延误治疗。
