    Abstract Erythema multiforme is an immune- mediated skin disorder characterized by erythematous target –like macules, papules and plaques commonly located over distal extremities as well as mucosal involvement. It is mostly induced by herpes simplex infections and various medications. Recurrences of herpes simplex infections result in new erythema multiforme lesions in immunologically susceptible people. Therefore, suppressing herpes reactivations also suppresses erythema multiforme attacks. Antiviral medications such as acyclovir, valacyclovir and famciclovir have limited capacity to prevent such recurrences due to their inadequate efficiency after continuous use . Those patients usually seek an absolute remedy to prevent recurrences. Bromelain is a well-known herbal supplement containing proteolytic enzymes produced from pineapple plant. It has been used in many clinical conditions including sinusitis, sports injuries and neoplastic diseases for years with a great safety profile. Herein, we present a young female patient with long -term erythema multiforme attacks induced by herpes simplex infections. She became free of disease after using oral bromelain 500 mg twice a day for one year.

    Abstract Aim: Viral wart is a common benign infectious dermatosis. It remains unclear why not everyone exposed to HPV develops warts. It is known that vitamin and mineral deficiencies can affect impair natural and acquired immunity and lead to a tendency to get more infections. This study aimed to determine the potential utility of evaluating vitamin B12, folic acid, and ferritin levels in patients with viral warts. Material and Methods: In this retrospective study, 70 patients who were diagnosed with viral warts in the dermatology outpatient clinic of Karabük University Training and Research Hospital between January 2018 and December 2019 were included. 70 healthy individuals matched with viral wart patients in terms of gender and age were included as the control group. Serum vitamin B12, folic acid, and ferritin levels of both groups were detected and compared from the hospital automation system. Results: Vitamin B12 level was detected statistically significantly lower in the viral wart group as compared to the control group (p=0.046). Although serum ferritin levels were found lower in the viral wart group, this difference was not statistically significant (p=0.677). No statistically significant difference was detected between the viral wart and control groups in terms of folate levels (p=0.879). Conclusion: In patients with viral warts with low serum vitamin B12 levels, replacement therapy could be considered. Also, the evaluation of serum ferritin level, an iron storage parameter in the body, is important in patients with viral warts infection.

    Abstract Scabies is a contagious, parasitic skin disease that adversely affects the quality of life and, can cause systemic complications if it is not properly treated. Sulfur ointment and permethrin cream are among the most used topical agents in the treatment of scabies. In this study, we aimed to compare the efficacy of sulfur ointment and permethrin cream in the treatment of scabies. In this single-center study, patients who were diagnosed with scabies in the dermatology outpatient clinics of Karabuk University Training and Research Hospital between April, 2021 and September, 2021 were investigated retrospectively. Age, gender, date of diagnosis, topical agent used for scabies treatment, and response to the treatment at the control examination in the second week were recorded. The patients were divided into two groups those receiving 5% permethrin cream or 10% sulfur ointment, and the treatment efficacy of both agents was compared. This study showed that 10% sulfur ointment was significantly more effective in treating scabies than 5% permethrin cream (p < 0.001). Moreover, younger patients with scabies responded better to both treatments. 10% Sulfur ointment can be considered a safe and effective topical option in the treatment of scabies. The resistance to 5% permethrin cream, which is the most commonly used agent for scabies, can be a concern as an unexpected low success rate was obtained in this study.
