Abstract: 
Introduction: There is a need to compare efficacy and safety profiles of crisaborole ointment, 2%, versus other topical treatments across randomized clinical trials (RCTs). We performed this review/network meta-analysis to evaluate the comparative efficacy and safety of crisaborole versus other topical pharmacologic therapies for mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis
(AD) among patients aged >2 years
Methods: Searches were conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, the Cochrane Collection Central Register of Clinical Trials, and the Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects using Ovid to identify English language articles reporting RCTs of topical anti-inflammatory agents in patients aged > 2 years with mild-to-moderate AD published between inception and 10 March 2020. This review used a prespecified protocol with eligibility criteria for population, interventions, comparisons, outcomes, and study
design. Efficacy was evaluated using the Investigator’s Static Global Assessment (ISGA) of clear (0) or almost clear (1) and expressed by hazard ratios (HR) with 95% credible intervals.
Results: Patients treated with crisaborole or tacrolimus ointment, 0.1% or 0.03%, versus vehicle alone were significantly more likely to achieve ISGA 0/1 at 28–42 days, with the greatest point estimate observed for the crisaborole comparison (hazard ratio: 2.07; 95% credible interval 1.76 to - 2.36; probability HR above 1 [p better]: 100.0%). Patients were also more likely to achieve ISGA 0/1 with crisaborole than with pimecrolimus cream, 1% (HR: 1.62; 95% credible interval 1.04–2.48; p better: 98.3%). While network meta-analysis for safety was not feasible because of data limitations, crisaborole pivotal studies (AD-301/AD-302) showed crisaborole was well tolerated.
Conclusions: Crisaborole was shown to be superior to vehicle and pimecrolimus and comparable to tacrolimus, 0.1% or 0.03%, with respect to ISGA 0/1 at 28–42 days in patients aged > 2 years with mild-to-moderate AD. This evaluation of comparative efficacy of crisaborole further supports use of crisaborole as an effective therapeutic option in this population.

Contact urticaria: Frequency, elicitors and cofactors in three cohorts (Information Network of Departments of Dermatology; Network of Anaphylaxis; and Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Erlangen, Germany) Authors: Helene Süß, Sabine Dölle-Bierke,  Johannes Geier, Burkhard Kreft, Eva Oppel, Claudia Pföhler, Christoph Skudlik, Margitta Worm, Vera Mahler Abstract:   Background: Contact urticaria (CU) is an infrequent, mostly occupational disease that may be life-threatening (CU syndrome stage 4). Objectives: To identify the current frequency, elicitors and cofactors of CU. Patients: Three cohorts were retrospectively analysed for CU: (a) patients from the Information Network of Departments of Dermatology (IVDK) database (2000-2014; n = 159 947); (b) patients from an allergy unit (Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Erlangen, 2000-2015; n = 4741); and (c) patients from the Anaphylaxis Registry (2007-2015: 6365 reported cases, including 2473 patients with Ring and Mes

ICON: Diagnosis and management of allergic conjunctivitis. Authors: Bielory L1, Delgado L2, Katelaris CH3, Leonardi A4, Rosario N5, Vichyanoud P6. Author information Abstract Ocular allergy (OA), interchangeably known as allergic conjunctivitis, is a common immunological hypersensitivity disorder affecting up to 40% of the population. Ocular allergy has been increasing in frequency, with symptoms of itching, redness, and swelling that significantly impacts an individual's quality of life (QOL). Ocular allergy is an often underdiagnosed and undertreated health problem, because only 10% of patients with OA symptoms seek medical attention, whereas most patients manage with over-the-counter medications and complementary nonpharmacological remedies. The clinical course, duration, severity, and co-morbidities are varied and depend, in part, on the specific ocular tissues that are affected and on immunologic mechanism(s) involved, both local and systemic. It is frequently associat

 Instructivo para la vigilancia en salud pública intensificada de infección respiratoria aguda asociada al nuevo coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19).  Fecha de actualización: viernes 20 de marzo 2020 Versión: 7 1. Introducción El 31 de diciembre de 2019 la Comisión Municipal de Salud y Sanidad de Wuhan (provincia de Hubei, China) informó sobre un agrupamiento de 27 casos de neumonía de etiología desconocida con inicio de síntomas el 8 de diciembre; los casos reportaban antecedente de exposición común a un mercado de mariscos, pescados y animales vivos en la ciudad de Wuhan. El 7 de enero de 2020, las autoridades chinas identificaron como agente causante del brote un nuevo tipo de virus de la familia Coronaviridae, que fue denominado “nuevo coronavirus”, SARS-COV-2 (1). Dado que los casos de coronavirus suelen causar síntomas respiratorios, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) ha emitido recomendaciones de protección pers
