Rituximab in the Treatment of Epidermolysis Bullosa Acquisita: A Systematic Review of the Literature
Epidermolysis bullosa acquisita (EBA) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by blistering of the skin and mucous membranes. Current pathophysiology implicates autoantibodies targeting type VII collagen, which serves as a crucial component of anchoring fibrils that attach the epidermis to the dermis. Management of EBA remains challenging and relies on a combination of anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and immunomodulating agents.

The Atopic Dermatitis Continuum: An Updated Paradigm for a Common Disorder and a Novel Multipurpose Treatment Option
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory skin disorder characterized by complex interactions among Staphylococcus aureus colonization and immunologic, genetic, and environmental (SAIGE) triggers. Currently, no single therapy comprehensively addresses all triggers and the full spectrum of AD manifestations, highlighting an unmet need for therapies that simultaneously target all components of the disease continuum.
Apremilast in the Treatment of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia: An Open-Label Pilot Study
Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA) is a scarring alopecia primarily affecting Black women. To date, there are no standardized treatment regimens or approved medications for the treatment of CCCA. This single-center, open-label, clinical study investigated the efficacy of apremilast in the treatment of mild to moderate vertex-predominant CCCA.
Structured Training of Dermatology Residents in the Management of Soft-Tissue Filler-Induced Vascular Complications
Soft-tissue filler injection-related vascular complications (IRVC) can lead to tissue necrosis, vision loss, and stroke. Hyaluronidase-based injections are the mainstay of treatment, though other options include heat, massage, nitroglycerin, and anticoagulants. Given the narrow therapeutic window and limited early warning signs, we propose training residents to implement a standardized soft-tissue filler vascular complication (SFVC) management protocol.
