    Abstract In the second part of this CME, we present an approach for the management of inflammatory and vaso-occlusive ulcers and highlight the need for further research in this field. The three overarching principles for management are etiology-specific treatment, ulcer care, and consideration of patient comorbidities and risk factors for poor healing. Both etiology-specific treatment and management of patient comorbidities and risk factors often require collaboration with providers from other specialties. Ulcer care is governed by TIME, or tissue debridement, infection control, management of moisture imbalance and epithelial edge advancement. As wound healing is a dynamic process, management should be adapted to changes in the status of the ulcer.

    Abstract Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a chronic inflammatory disorder of the apocrine-bearing skin, presents with deep seated inflamed nodules, abscesses, draining sinus tracts, and scarring with a profound impact on quality of life. In this review of Pubmed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central databases, we focus on the role of hormonal therapies in the treatment of HS, including finasteride, cyproterone acetate, spironolactone, oral contraceptive pills, and metformin. A detailed search was conducted on these databases using key words like ‘hidradenitis suppurativa’, ‘acne inversa’, ‘antiandrogens’, and ‘hormonal therapy’.

    Abstract Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare, debilitating, inflammatory skin disease associated with a variety of systemic diseases. Because of its rarity, PG is treated with miscellaneous immunosuppressive agents as there is no US Food and Drug Administration-approved standardized treatment approach. We present four patients with PG treated with tofacitinib in the context of the six existing cases in the literature. Tofacitinib appeared to be beneficial in the small sample of patients (n = 10) who failed an average of four other systemic therapies. The majority of patients had classic PG located on the legs (80%, 8/10), while 20% of cases (2/10) were peristomal. The most common comorbidity was inflammatory bowel disease (78%, 7/9). There were no negative treatment results and 40% (4/10) of patients had complete healing of their ulcers, while the other 60% (6/10) had marked clinical improvement. From our observation, tofacitinib appears to be a promising steroid-sparing adjuvant treatment in patients with refractory PG who have failed on other systemic therapies.

    Abstract Background: Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare autoinflammatory skin condition that causes tissue destruction and subsequent painful ulcers. To date, there are no core domains or instruments for assessing PG severity in clinical trials, and current treatment paradigms rely on outcome measurements that have not been well characterized in the literature.
    Objectives: To perform two systematic reviews that (i) identify the outcome measurement instruments used in PG clinical trials and their corresponding domains and (ii) identify any associated validation studies and evaluate their measurement properties and methodological quality.
    Methods: We systematically searched the MEDLINE and Embase databases for PG outcome measurement instruments. We also systematically searched for PG instrument validation studies. We evaluated the measurement properties and methodological quality of validation studies using the 2018 COSMIN Risk of Bias checklist.
    Results: In total, seven clinical trials were included. These studies utilized a total of 20 different instruments, including 11 physician-reported instruments, eight patient-reported instruments and one composite instrument. Among these, 85% of the instruments lacked any validation data. Of the remaining three validated instruments (speed of healing, physician global assessment and resolution of inflammation), methodological quality was not available for half of the COSMIN categories.
    Conclusions: We identified 17 non-validated outcome measurement instruments used in PG clinical trials. We conclude that PG validation studies are required for existing instruments, and new instruments need to be developed to inform the consensus process for the development of a core outcome set for PG. What is already known about this topic? Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare autoinflammatory skin condition that has been characterized by multiple outcome measurement instruments in clinical trials. However, there is no consensus on the most validated and appropriate outcome measurement instruments. What does this study add? This study identifies and evaluates 20 unique outcome measurement instruments for PG in the literature. Of these 20, 17 lack any instrument validation data, highlighting the need for future studies. What are the clinical implications of this work? Despite the current use of several outcome measurement instruments, future studies should explore the validation surrounding these instruments, as no instruments can currently be recommended.
