Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, debilitating inflammatory disorder of the hair follicles that localizes to the intertriginous and anogenital regions of the body. Lesions are characterized by inflammatory nodules, subcutaneous abscesses, fibrosis, and sinus tracts. Crohn's disease (CD) is an idiopathic chronic inflammatory bowel disease that affects any part of the gastrointestinal tract. Multiple treatment options exist for CD, including monoclonal anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) antibodies like adalimumab (Humira)...

Zinc is a trace nutrient essential for the normal growth and development of human body. The main aim was to evaluate the significant association between measured zinc status in relation to different skin disorders and their severity. PubMed®, Google® Scholar™ and Cochrane© Reviews databases were searched for studies from January 2017 to June 2021, using the terms; zinc serum levels, zinc plasma levels and different dermatosis in the review, only human studies in English language were reviewed and the studies designs were controlled, cross sectional, observational and analytic types...

BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests an association between common inflammatory skin diseases and chronic kidney disease (CKD). OBJECTIVES: To explore the association between CKD stages 3-5 (CKD3-5) and atopic eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and hidradenitis suppurativa. METHODS: We undertook two complementary analyses; a prevalent case-control study and a cohort study using routinely collected primary care data [UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD)]...

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the most common skin cancer diagnosed in African Americans.<sup>1</sup> Twenty to forty percent of cSCCs reported in African Americans are related to chronic scarring processes or areas of in ammation.<sup>2</sup> Risk factors for developing cSCCs in patients of color include chronic scars resulting from burns, skin ulcers, and radiation sites; and chronic inflammatory diseases such as discoid lupus and hidradenitis suppuritiva.<sup>1</sup> Although skin cancer only accounts for 1% to 2% of cancers diagnosed within African Americans, it is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in this population...

COMPARATIVE STUDY
Corrine Wong, Michel Saint-Cyr
BACKGROUND: The major blood supply of the latissimus dorsi muscle flap is based on the descending and tranverse branches of the thoracodorsal artery. This segmental blood supply allows the muscle to be split and harvested based solely on vascularization from the descending branch, thus sparing the latissimus dorsi muscle function. This article reports the use of the descending branch muscle-sparing latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap in reconstructing defects on the trunk and upper extremities...

REVIEW
Andrew F Alexis, Bruce E Strober
BACKGROUND: Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a) is a proinflammatory cytokine that plays an immunomodulatory role in a variety of systemic and dermatologic diseases. Currently, three anti-TNF-a drugs are available in North America- infliximab (approved in the U.S. for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, ankylosing spondylitis, ulcerative colitis, and psoriatic arthritis), etanercept (approved in the U.S. for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and psoriasis), and adalimumab (approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis)...

BACKGROUND: Hidradenitis suppuritiva, a disease of the apocrine sweat glands, has always been a challenging area to the plastic and reconstructive surgeon. The aetiology is idiopathic and medical treatment offers temporary relief only. Radical surgical excision, therefore, is the mainstay of active management. AIM: To present and evaluate a series of 106 patients of hidradenitis suppuritiva treated in the regional plastic surgery unit of southeast Scotland between January 1990 and December 2000...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
W P Morgan, L E Hughes
The distribution, size and density of the apocrine glands in hidradenitis suppuritiva as compared with those in axillary hyperhidrosis and normal controls have been studied. There are no significant differences in the size or density of the apocrine glands in hidradenitis suppuritiva as compared with normal controls. The apocrine glands in axillary hyperhidrosis are significantly larger than those in axillary hidradenitis and in normal controls. A simple method that can be used to demonstrate the distribution of the apocrine glands preoperatively is described...
