Abstract

Background: Demographic and geographic constraints make access to specialists difficult, reinforcing the role of general practitioners (GPs) in dermatology. The purpose was to investigate dermatology practice, referral patterns to dermatologists, training needs in this field, and their opinions on teledermatology. Methods: A survey questionnaire was randomly distributed through Google Forms among Moroccan GPs. The statistical analysis of the collected data was carried out using SPSS. Results: 189 responses were collected. The mean age was 41.2 years. 61.4% were female. The proportion of dermatological consultations in general practice was 10 to 20% in 42.9% of cases. Dermatological disorders were the main reason for consultation in 42.9% of cases. Approximately 75.6% of the GPs felt they were moderately or not proficient in dermatology. 64% were not satisfied with their initial training. 84.7% were interested in additional training courses dedicated mainly to inflammatory pathologies (82%), infectious diseases (78.8%), and facial dermatoses (71.4%). 64.6% favored teledermatology and saw it as interesting, mainly for obtaining a rapid diagnostic opinion (71.4%) and training through direct exchange with the specialist (67.7%). A multivariate analysis was performed using age, practice location, and recent continuing education. Conclusion: Our study has highlighted insufficient initial training for current practice and, therefore, a need for further training. This suboptimal diagnostic capacity would contribute to the increase in the dermatologist use by GPs. The development of teledermatology could respond to this problem.

Abstract

Living with a chronic wound may prove to be devastating to patients both physically and psychologically. Wound increases economic and society burden due to low healing rate, prolonged hospital treatment, and increased epidemiology worldwide. Therefore, application wound treatment modalities are necessary for patient recovery. However, each modality has their own advantage and limitation. As a newly-founded modality, secretome, which originated from Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) plays an important role in chronic wound healing due to its ability in promoting tissue regeneration and self-renewal that supports cell proliferation and migration. However, different therapeutic potentials can arise according to each source of stem cells. This review highlights the importance of secretome as a modality in treating chronic wounds. Secretome types, stem cell origin, and results when applied in vitro and in vivo will also be comprehensively reviewed.

Abstract

Background: Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a cutaneous small vessel vasculitis that typically affects children under ten but may also occur in adults. This study aims to report a rare instance of an adult patient with HSP to expand our knowledge and prevent delayed diagnosis and treatment. Case: A 21-year-old female patient presented with palpable purpuric lesions on the lower abdomen, buttocks, and lower limbs. In addition, the patient complained of abdominal pain and joint pain. The patient had suffered an upper respiratory tract infection with spontaneous resolution three days before the skin lesions. Laboratory tests showed leukocytosis and elevated anti-Streptolysin O titer. The patient was diagnosed with HSP and given oral methylprednisolone, antibiotics, and symptomatic treatment. She showed clinical improvement after taking medication. Conclusion: Henoch-Schönlein purpura is typically a self-limiting disease and infrequent in adults, but it has the potential to manifest into life-threatening conditions such as end-stage renal failure. An integrated multidisciplinary approach is needed for early diagnosis and management.

Abstract

Background: Herpes zoster (HZ) presents with unilateral dermatomal pain and rash resulting from the reactivation and proliferation of latent varicella zoster virus (VZV) that dwells in neurons following varicella. It mostly occurs in the elderly and in immunocompromised . Warfarin consumption can lead to dysregulation of cytokines that cause immune dysregulation, which can be a factor in the reactivation of herpes zoster. There is limited research or study exploring the correlation between herpes zoster reactivation and the use of warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation This case report aim to investigate potential role of anticoagulant therapy, specifically warfarin, in the reactivation of HZ in elderly patients, and to explore the implications of polypharmacy and immune dysregulation in the management and prevention of HZ. Case Description: A 55-year-old male with a history of atrial fibrillation, currently on warfarin, was admitted with complaints of pain blister lession that developed 7 days post-discharge from the Cardiology department. His initial symptoms included pruritus and pain localized to the chest and right thoracic area. Dermatological examination revealed herpetiform vesicles on an erythematous base, accompanied by crusts and scabs, distributed along thoracic dermatomes T6-T8. Conclusion: Elderly patients often experience polypharmacy due to degenerative diseases. Cardiovascular treatment often includes anticoagulants such as warfarin. Following 1 week after the administration of topical antibiotic and steroid ointments, the patient demonstrated a positive clinical outcome with a few complications after HZ infection.

Abstract

Background: Occupational contact dermatitis is a disease in the field of dermatology that arises in the work environment due to workers coming into direct contact with causative substances, be they irritants or allergens. Farmers are susceptible to various allergens or irritants when working in farming, clearing land, fertilizing, spraying, caring for, and during harvest. Epidemiological data showing contact dermatitis in Balinese farmers was still very minimal. So, based on the above background, we are interested in examining the characteristics of work-related contact dermatitis in farmers in Bali. Methods: This research method is descriptive research using a cross-sectional method that evaluates work-related contact dermatitis among farmers in Wongayo Gede Village, Penebel District, Tabanan Regency. Results: 56 farmers showed that 34 samples suffered from occupational contact dermatitis, of which 59% were men and 41% were women.  Based on the division of age groups according to WHO, it was found that youth (18-65 years) were 82%, middle-aged (66-79 years) 12%, and older adults (80-99) 6%. The highest educational background is elementary school 47%, high school 33%, and junior high school 15%. Conclusion: This research reveals that men's occupational contact dermatitis is more common. The most commonly found sample ages were young people in 18-65 years. Meanwhile, the most recent educational status of the sample was elementary school. The most common locations for skin lesions are on the upper and lower extremities.
