The effect of influenza vaccine on severity of COVID-19 infection: An original study from Iran

Mucocutaneous presentations of consultant critical and non-critical cases of admitted COVID-19 patients, outpatients, and vaccine-associated dermatoses: a clinical atlas and a large original study of two general COVID-19 centers from Iran

Rapid and proper diagnosis of mucocutaneous presentations of COVID-19 which in many cases are representing internal organ damage is a key way to better approach these patients, and it could be even lifesaving. In this original study, we reported consultant critical and non-critical cases of admitted COVID-19 patients and some interesting outpatient cases for 14 months, and some newly encountered vaccine-associated dermatoses. We presented 121 cases divided into 12 categories; all had full multi-aspects photographs attached as an atlas to a Supplementary File. These categories were:1- Generalized papulopustular eruptions (3 patients), 2- Erythroderma (4 patients), 3- Maculopapular lesions(16 patients), 4- Mucosal lesions (8 patients), 5- Urticarial lesions and angioedema (16 patients), 6- Vascular injuries (22 patients), 7- Vesiculobullous lesions (12 patients), 8- The specific new onset of mucocutaneous presentations or aggravation of any especial previous dermatoses (9 patients), 9- Nail changes (3 patients), 10- Hair loss (2 patients), 11- Non-specific mucocutaneous problems (16 patients) and 12-Vaccine-associated dermatoses (10 patients).In the pandemic, if we countered with extensive mucocutaneous lesions with vascular components or vesiculobullous erosive lesions in association with any cutaneous rash that could be an alarming sign of a probable life-threatening systemic event, we would need to approach them as soon as possible.

First reported case of delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction to non-hyaluronic acid Polycaprolactone dermal filler following COVID-19 vaccination: A case report and a review of the literature

Cases of filler reactions after COVID‐19 vaccination have been reported. Here, we present the first case of delayed‐type reaction (DTR) to non‐hyaluronic acid Polycaprolactone dermal filler after the second dose of Sinopharm COVID‐19 vaccine which was improved with administration of topical and intralesional steroids.

Pansclerotic Morphea Following COVID-19: A Case Report and Review of Literature on Rheumatologic and Non-rheumatologic Dermatologic Immune-Mediated Disorders Induced by SARS-CoV-2

While mucocutaneous manifestations of COVID-19 have been frequently reported and added to our knowledge every day during the pandemic, another issue is the COVID-related diseases that can present as intensified lesions of underlying diseases, a new disease, or changes in the behavior of an old lesion. Given that immune system overreaction and cytokine storm are among the most prominent events in COVID-19, the incidence of autoimmune diseases is expected to increase after COVID-19, as confirmed in several reports. To increase the body of knowledge about short- and long-term outcomes of COVID-19 for specialists, it is essential that similar cases be reported and collected for years to come. The present study investigated a case of pansclerotic morphea that rapidly progressed a few weeks after infection with COVID-19 in a 57-year-old woman with no history of any autoimmune skin or rheumatic diseases. She was prescribed outpatient COVID-19 treatment of azithromycin, vitamins D and C, and then quarantined for 2 weeks. The manifestations of the disease were exacerbated at each follow-up and sampling visit at short intervals. This kind of pansclerotic morphea is reported for the first time.
