    Abstract Abstract: Høilund-Carlsen and colleagues raise important issues related to amyloid PET, diagnosis of Alzheimer disease, and recently approved antiamyloid treatment aducanumab. We discuss new developments that may direct us to methods of presymptomatic detection of Alzheimer disease and development of effective prevention and therapy.

    Abstract Abstract: Høilund-Carlsen and colleagues raise concern regarding the reliability of amyloid PET to exclude Alzheimer disease. We present additional studies of amyloid PET and discuss the diagnostic challenges in Alzheimer disease. We discuss the limitations of amyloid in diagnosis and evaluation of therapy response in AD.

    Abstract Background and aim: Ocular sarcoidosis is present in 30-60% of all sarcoidosis patients. Our purpose is to increase awareness of the various presentations of ocular sarcoidosis.
    Methods: Short image-based clinical case report.
    Results: We report on a case of ocular sarcoidosis presenting with unilateral choroidal nodules in a middle-aged man. Sarcoid uveitis is generally bilateral and rather symmetrical. However, choroidal nodules are an exception to this rule, as they generally arise unilaterally. Choroidal nodules are highly responsive to oral corticosteroids. When left untreated, they may evolve to chorioretinal atrophy and secondary choroidal neovascularization.
    Conclusions: Knowledge of this presentation of ocular sarcoidosis can help clinicians optimize treatment outcomes for patients.

    Abstract Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are a class of antidiabetic agents that work by inducing insulin secretion and inhibiting release of glucagon in a glucose-dependent manner. They are especially promising given their long duration of action, decreased risk of hypoglycemia, and added benefit of weight loss. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that has been approved for type II diabetes and chronic weight management in obese adults. Cases of hypersensitivity reactions have been previously reported in patients taking GLP-1 receptor agonists dulaglutide and liraglutide. However, to our knowledge, there have been no reports of hypersensitivity reactions to semaglutide. Here, we present two cases of dermal hypersensitivity reactions in patients taking semaglutide for type II diabetes. In the first case, a 75-year-old woman who had been taking semaglutide for 10 months presented with an eruption on her legs, back, and chest for 3 months duration. Histology showed a subepidermal blister with eosinophils, suggestive of a drug hypersensitivity reaction. In the second case, a 74-year-old white man who had been taking semaglutide for 1 month presented with an eruption on the bilateral flanks and lower abdomen for 3 weeks duration. Histology revealed perivascular inflammatory cell infiltrate with eosinophils, also suggestive of a drug hypersensitivity reaction. Both patients began experiencing resolution of their symptoms within 1 month of discontinuing semaglutide.

    Abstract Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp is a rare condition which primarily affects older women after local trauma and has historically been treated with topical steroids. As it is a rare entity and resembles other dermatologic conditions, it may easily be misdiagnosed. Identifying the causes and evaluating the efficacy of treatments of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp (EPDS) is of great importance to both avoid misdiagnosis and ensure optimal treatment of this rare condition. There are numerous causes. In addition to surgeries and physical injuries, topical and procedural treatments for actinic keratoses and androgenetic alopecia can trigger the development of lesions. There are also documented associations with several autoimmune and systemic conditions. Besides corticosteroids, topical tacrolimus and photodynamic therapy were the most commonly used treatments for EPDS. They were effective with few recurrences and adverse effects. Other successful treatment options were topical dapsone, silicone gels, calcipotriol, acitretin, and isotretinoin. Oral dapsone can be used in cases of disseminated disease. Zinc sulfate should be considered with low-serum zinc levels. While cyclosporine was effective, there were adverse effects that may limit its use. It is important for dermatologists to be aware of the wide array of potential causes of erosive pustular dermatosis and include it on their differential. Additionally, although high-potency topical steroids have been historically used as the first-line treatment, there are many other effective treatments that may avoid recurrence and skin atrophy, particularly in the elderly population.

    Abstract Abstract: A 27-year-old man with polysubstance abuse including methamphetamine, fentanyl, and 1.5 years of electronics compressed gas duster inhalation presented following an assault. Radiologic imaging performed for suspected fractures revealed periosteal reaction, cortical thickening with increased bone density, and ligament and tendon ossification, which were not present on imaging obtained 3 years before presentation. A bone scan was subsequently performed revealing a metabolic superscan with cortical irregularity. Further investigation revealed skeletal fluorosis from electronics compressed gas duster inhalation. Skeletal fluorosis may be considered when these osseous findings are encountered.
