Abstract

Background: Pemphigus disease, especsially Pemphigus Vulgaris (PV), is an autoimmune disease resulting in blisters on the skin and mucosa due to autoantibodies attacking desmogleins (DSG) 1 and 3. Autoimmunity development in PV may be idiopathic or induced by neoplasms, drugs, infections, or inflammatory processes.  Besides affecting the respiratory tract, COVID-19 may also affect other systems, such as the skin. The pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases and COVID-19 have similarities, which is an overreaction of the immune system. Purpose: To report a case about the association between PV autoimmune disease and COVID-19. Case: A 30-year-old woman presented with full-body pain and ulcers. Three days before the skin lesions, the patient complained of a mild cough, and the SARS-CoV-2 examination was positive. The patient was treated with systemic and topical corticosteroids along with broad-spectrum antivirals. The patient was discharged with an improved lesion condition and a negative SARS-CoV-2 PCR on day 5 of treatment. Discussion: Prolonged viral infection or viral infection itself, such as COVID-19 can cause immune system dysregulation leading to autoimmune skin lesions with different mechanisms. The use of corticosteroids or immunosuppressants in autoimmune diseases increases the risk of COVID-19 infection in a pandemic. Conclusion: In the COVID-19 pandemic, COVID-19 and autoimmune diseases such as pemphigus vulgaris are interrelated with the presence of immune dysregulation leading to skin lesions

Data were obtained from the medical records of all pediatric patients diagnosed with scabies at the Dermatology and Venereology Polyclinic of Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G.

Result: This study included a total of 53 pediatric patients. The majority of patients were male, comprising 34 patients (64.2%). There were 20 children (37.7%) with normal nutritional status, 16 children (30.2%) classified as underweight, 9 children (17%) classified as overweight, and 8 children (15.1%) classified as obese. Based on parental education level, 29 parents of the patients had completed high school education (54.7%), while the remainder had completed undergraduate (37.7%) and junior high school (7.5%). A total of 52 patients (98.1%) received 5% permethrin as scabies treatment. Conclusion: This study has provided important dst.
