    Abstract Background: Psoriasis (PSO) is a common chronic autoimmune skin disease with a significant psycho-socio-economic burden. Some antidepressants (ADs) such as fluoxetine and bupropion can induce or exacerbate PSO. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between ADs history before PSO onset, and the risk of PSO induction, in Isfahan province, Iran. Materials and Methods: In this case–control study, 80 patients with PSO were selected by non-probability sampling method, and 80 healthy individuals were selected using simple random sampling. They were interviewed and medical information was recorded. Chi-square, Mann–Whitney, and Kruskal–Wallis tests for dichotomous or categorical data, and independent-sample t test for continuous data were used. Statistical significance was taken as P ≤ 0.05. Results: In this case–control study, a total of 160 individuals, 80 participants in each group, were included. The mean age of the total samples was 44.8 ± 16 years. Forty-three percent of the individuals were women. PSO familial history in the cases was significantly higher than the control group (OR = 11.94, P = 0.001). It was revealed that use of ADs by patients before PSO induction, was greater than the controls (OR = 2.78, P = 0.058). Conclusions: Past history of ADs in the cases before PSO onset, was higher than the controls, indicating a possible association between ADs and the risk of PSO induction. This study can be effective to pay more attention to the possible complications of ADs and PSO risk factors. Accurate knowledge of PSO risk factors will be useful for better management and morbidity reduction.

    Abstract Background: Patients admitted in especial units such as coronary care unit (CCU) require intensive care for different aspects including skin problems. Here in this report we aimed to perform a survey on different skin lesions in patients admitted in CCU by the time of admission and when discharging. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we had a survey on 200 patients admitted in CCU in AL-Zahra hospital, Isfahan. A dermatologist observed and examined each patients for any skin lesions by the time of admission and when discharging from CCU. Results: Here we showed that 15 percent of patients admitted in CCU have at least one skin lesion and also we indicated that seborrhea dermatitis and then rosacea have the most prevalence by the time of admission in CCU. Other skin lesions were acute skin failure. We also showed that prevalence of bed sore and pressure sores increased amazingly during admission. Conclusion: Rosacea, seborrhea dermatitis and drug allergic reactions after pressure sores are the most frequent skin lesions in CCU and there might be an association between rosacea and cardiovascular diseases.

    Abstract Background: Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a common parasitic disorder that is endemic in many countries. There is no completely effective treatment for this condition, but pentavalent antimony compounds are regarded as the main treatment. Different laser types have been used for treatment of CL with variable success but to our best knowledge, there is no published paper regarding use of intense pulsed light (IPL) for treatment of CL. Materials and Methods: In this randomized, single-blind clinical trial study, we compared the efficacy of intralesional glucantime alone versus intralesional glucantime plus weekly IPL for treatment of 54 patients with confirmed cutaneous leishmaniasis for a maximum of eight weeks as a randomized, clinical trial. Results: Although it was not statistically significant, combination treatment was more effective than intralesional glucantime alone (P > 0.05). However, the velocity of healing was significantly higher in the IPL plus intralesional glucantime alone versus glucantime alone. No side effect was observed in both groups. Discussion: To better evaluate the efficacy of IPL, more studies with a higher number of patients and using various IPL filters are recommended.

    Abstract Abstract Pemphigus vegetans is a rare variant of pemphigus vulgaris, characterized by vegetating lesions primarily in the flexures. A 41‐year‐old male patient presented with pemphigus vegetans highly mimicking condylomata acuminata, which led to mistreatment. Careful analysis of clinical and laboratory findings enabled us to reach a correct diagnosis and successful treatment.

    Abstract Background: Psoriasis is a kind of common, chronic, and exacerbating skin diseases. It does not have any certain treatment but it can be controlled. Different treatments have been used to control the disease, from positional steroids in mild cases to methotrexate in severe cases, all of which have multiple side effects. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of Florabile, derived from Iranian Traditional Medicine, on reducing the severity of psoriasis rashes. Methods: In a semi-experimental study, 25 patients aged 20 to 50 years with mild to moderate psoriasis and patients whose bodies were involved below than 20 percent were participated for a 30-days experimental period. They diluted Florabile syrup containing three spoons (each spoon with an approximate volume of 15 cc) with a glass of water (250 cc), and consumed one hour before lunch daily. Results were scored using the Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) at the beginning and at the end of the study, and then evaluated by two dermatologists. Findings: Consuming the medicine meaningfully reduced inflammation of the rashes, scaling, plaque, percentage of involvement, and PASI score (P < 0.050). Conclusion: Findings show significant positive effect of Florabile syrup on reducing the severity of psoriasis rashes.

    Abstract Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is endemic in many parts of the world with a high economic and health impact. Despite many treatments that have been suggested for this zoonotic infection, there is still no definite therapy for CL. Meglumine antimony compounds are considered as a standard treatment for leishmaniasis, however, these medications have a relatively high side effect profile and not always effective. Physical modalities including cryotherapy, laser, and heat therapy have also been used for this purpose. As a source of heat therapy, different methods have been used including radiofrequency, ultrasound, infrared, exothermic crystallization thermotherapy, and microwave. We reviewed all of the articles in PubMed regarding the use of heat therapy for the treatment of CL up to January 2020. According to our literature review, heat therapy using different sources showed promising results for the treatment of CL that were comparable to meglumine antimony. In addition, heat therapy has very low side effect profiles that are localized to the treatment area suggesting this method as a safe procedure for CL therapy. This study is a brief review of the literature about the effect of heat therapy on the treatment of CL. Performing randomized clinical trials to compare different methods of heat therapy and to compare it with meglumine antimony compounds is recommended.

    Abstract Introduction: Concomitant onset of active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and psoriasis is rare; however, due to the common skin involvement in both and exacerbation of psoriasis with antimalarial medications used for SLE, it is crucial to investigate the concomitant occurrence of both diseases. Objectives: The present study aims to investigate the incidence of psoriasis in people with active SLE. Patients and Methods: The present cross-sectional study was performed on 148 patients with active SLE from 2015 to 2017. Lupus activity was evaluated based on systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index-2K (SLEDAI-2K), and then, the incidence of psoriasis in patients was investigated. Patients’ demographic information was recorded in the relevant checklist. Results: The mean score of SLEDAI-2K was 14.10±19.77. The duration of SLE was significantly associated with the SLEDAI-2K score (P=0.001, r = 0.294). Psoriasis incidence was remarkably correlated with the gender of patients with SLE (P=0.019). An insignificant association was found between the coincidences of SLE with psoriasis considering the factors, including age, SLE duration, and mean SLEDAI-2K score. Conclusion: Patients’ mean age, SLE duration, and disease activity score were not correlated with concomitant psoriasis among SLE patients; however, we found that males were more prone to concomitant SLE and psoriasis.
