Abstract
BACKGROUND Topical imiquimod has shown to be an effective treatment for EMPD, although available evidence supporting its use is based on case reports and small series of patients. OBJECTIVES To investigate the therapeutic outcomes and analyze potential clinico-pathological factors associated with imiquimod response in a large cohort of EMPD patients. METHODS Retrospective chart review of 125 EMPD patients treated with imiquimod at 20 Spanish tertiary-care hospitals. RESULTS During the study period, patients received 134 treatment regimens with imiquimod, with 70 (52.2%) cases achieving complete response (CR), 41 (30.6%) partial response and 23 (17.2%) no response. The cumulative CR rates at 24 and 48 weeks of treatment were 46.3% and 71.8%, respectively, without significant differences between first-time and previously treated EMPD. Larger lesions (≥6 cm; p = 0.038) and EMPD affecting >1 anatomical site (p = 0.002) were significantly associated with a worse treatment response. However, the CR rate did not differ significantly by the number of treatment applications (≤4 vs. > 4 times/week; p = 0.112). Among patients who achieved CR, 30 (42.9%) developed local recurrences during a mean follow-up period of 36 months, with an estimated 3 and 5-year recurrence free-survival of 55.7% and 36.4%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Imiquimod appears as an effective therapeutic alternative for both first-line and previously treated EMPD lesions. However, a less favorable therapeutic response could be expected in larger lesions and those affecting >1 anatomical site. Based on our results, a 3-4 times weekly regimen of imiquimod with a treatment duration of at least 6 months could be considered an appropriate therapeutic strategy for EMPD patients.

Abstract
An 11-year-old boy presented generalized eruptive syringomas (ESs) associated with multiple milia-like whitish palmar papules corresponding to dermal calcium deposits. A relationship between calcium deposits distribution to an underlying eccrine duct was noted on pathology. The observation of dermal calcium deposits and its association with generalized ESs may support a possible sweat duct origin of this uncommon and peculiar form of superficial calcinosis cutis.

Abstract
Solar urticaria is a rare photodermatosis with several unknown pathogenic, clinical and therapeutic aspects. This study analysed the clinical and therapeutic features of a long-term follow-up solar urticaria cohort, with a focus on omalizumab management and outcomes, and characterized omalizumab response with the use of the high-affinity immunoglobulin E (IgE) receptor (FcεRI) and the Urticaria Control Test. An observational, unicentric, ambispective study was conducted from 2007 to 2023. Solar urticaria was diagnosed in 41 patients with a median follow-up of 60 months. Thirteen patients were prescribed omalizumab, with a median treatment time of 48 months. A significant decrease in FcεRI baseline levels and subsequent median increase in Urticaria Control Test was evidenced after omalizumab prescription in all patients. Drug survival at 48 months was at 88.9%. Omalizumab stepping-down protocol led to sustained omalizumab discontinuation in only 1 patient. Median basal Urticaria Control Test was lower (p < 0.01) in patients who were prescribed omalizumab and in patients without remission. This study contributes to our knowledge of omalizumab outcomes in real-life clinical practice and highlights the pathogenic importance of IgE-mediated pathways in solar urticaria, where FcεRI emerges as a possible biomarker of omalizumab response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence regarding long-term therapeutic outcomes and disease-specific survival (DSS) in Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is limited. OBJECTIVES To assess the DSS and outcomes of surgical and nonsurgical therapeutic modalities in a large cohort of EMPD patients. METHODS Retrospective chart review of EMPD patients from 20 Spanish tertiary care hospitals. RESULTS Data on 249 patients with a median follow-up of 60 months were analyzed. The estimated 5-, 10-, and 15-year DSS was 95.9%, 92.9%, and 88.5%, respectively. A significantly lower DSS was observed in patients showing deep dermal invasion (≥1 mm) or metastatic disease (P < .05). A ≥50% reduction in EMPD lesion size was achieved in 100% and 75.3% of patients treated with surgery and topical therapies, respectively. Tumor-free resection margins were obtained in 42.4% of the patients after wide local excision (WLE). The 5-year recurrence-free survival after Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS), WLE with tumor-free margins, WLE with positive margins, radiotherapy, and topical treatments was 63.0%, 51.4%, 20.4%, 30.1%, and 20.8%, respectively. LIMITATIONS Retrospective design. CONCLUSIONS EMPD is usually a chronic condition with favorable prognosis. MMS represents the therapeutic alternative with the greatest efficacy for the disease. Recurrence rates in patients with positive margins after WLE are similar to the ones observed in patients treated with topical agents.

Abstract
Circulating skin-homing cutaneous lymphocyte-associated antigen (CLA)+ T cells constitute a small subset of human memory T cells involved in several aspects of atopic dermatitis: Staphylococcus aureus related mechanisms, the abnormal Th2 immune response, biomarkers, clinical aspects of the patients, pruritus, and the mechanism of action of targeted therapies. Superantigens, IL-13, IL-31, pruritus, CCL17 and early effects on dupilumab-treated patients have in common that they are associated with the CLA+ T cell mechanisms in atopic dermatitis patients. The function of CLA+ T cells corresponds with the role of T cells belonging to the skin-associated lymphoid tissue and could be a reason why they reflect different mechanisms of atopic dermatitis and many other T cell mediated skin diseases. The goal of this review is to gather all this translational information of atopic dermatitis pathology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autoimmunity contributes to the pathogenesis of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). The subtyping of CSU has revealed an autoimmune form of CSU. Despite autoimmune diseases having been associated with CSU, there are few prospective studies that have evaluated the characteristics and biomarkers of patients with CSU and autoimmune disease in a real-life practice setting. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the presence of specific biomarkers for the presence of autoimmune disease in CSU and to analyze the clinical and therapeutic features of patients with CSU and autoimmune disease. METHODS The clinical, laboratory, and therapeutic features of patients with CSU at a tertiary-level center were prospectively collected. Data obtained were compared in function of the presence/absence of autoimmune disease and typified according to IgE levels. RESULTS Patients with CSU who had associated autoimmune disease corresponded to middle-aged women with a common pattern of blood test findings: both low baseline IgE and high-affinity receptor of IgE expression, basopenia, eosinopenia, higher baseline erythrocyte sedimentation rate and D-dimer, increased presence of antinuclear antibodies, IgG against thyroid peroxidase, and positive autologous serum skin test result. Total baseline IgE less than or equal to 43.8 IU/mL was both the optimal cutoff to predict autoimmune disease in the CSU cohort and a significant risk factor for the presence of autoimmune disease in the regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS In real-life clinical practice, characteristics of patients with CSU and autoimmune disease share common features with type IIb autoimmune CSU. Total baseline IgE less than or equal to 43.8 IU/mL has been detected as a possible biomarker of autoimmune disease in patients with CSU.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous investigations pointed out a role for antigen stimulation in Sezary syndrome (SS). High-throughput sequencing of the T cell receptor (TR) offers several applications beyond diagnostic purposes, including the study of T cell pathogenesis. METHODS We performed high-throughput RNA sequencing of the TR alpha (TRA) and beta (TRB) genes focusing on the complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) in 11 SS and one erythrodermic mycosis fungoides (MF) patients. Five psoriasis patients were employed as controls. Peripheral blood CD4+ cells were isolated and RNA sequenced (HiSeq2500). High-resolution HLA typing was performed in neoplastic patients. RESULTS Highly expanded predominant TRA and TRB CDR3 were only found in SS patients (median frequency: 94.4% and 93.7%). No remarkable CDR3 expansions were observed in psoriasis patients (median frequency of predominant TRA and TRB CDR3: 0.87% and 0.69%, p < 0.001 compared to SS). CDR3 almost identical to the predominant were identified within each SS patient and were exponentially correlated with frequencies of the predominant CDR3 (R2 = 0.918, p < 0.001). Forty-six different CDR3 were shared between SS patients displaying HLA similarities, including predominant TRA and TRB CDR3 in one patient that were found in other three patients. Additionally, 351 antigen matches were detected (Cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr, Influenza virus, and self-antigens), and the predominant CDR3 of two different SS patients matched CDR3 with specificity for Influenza and Epstein-Barr viruses. CONCLUSIONS Besides detecting clonality, these findings shed light on the nature of SS-related antigens, pointing to RNA sequencing as a useful tool for simultaneous clonality and biological analysis in SS.

Abstract
We aimed to characterise cutaneous melanoma in the elderly and determine its association with poorer prognosis. We studied a prospective cohort of the melanoma population in Catalonia between 2012 and 2016. We compared young patient group (<75 years old) with elderly patient group (≥75 years old). We included 3009 patients (52.5% women) from 14 centres, with a mean age at diagnosis of 61.1 years. In the ≥75-year-old group there was a predominance of men (53.9% vs. 45.5%, P < 0.001), melanoma was more frequently located in the head and neck area (37.7% vs. 15.5%, P < 0.001) and lentigo maligna melanoma subtype was significantly more frequent (31.4% vs. 11.6%, P < 0.001), as were nodular melanoma and acral lentiginous melanoma ( P < 0.001). In older people, Breslow index, the presence of ulceration and mitotic rate were higher than in younger people. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed longer melanoma-specific survival (MSS) and melanoma-free survival (MFS) in <75-year-old group compared to the elderly group. Cox regression models demonstrated reduced MSS in patients ≥75 years regardless of gender, location, IB, ulceration and lymph node status at diagnosis (HR 1.54, P = 0.013) whereas MFS was not independently associated with elderly when head and neck location was considered. Age appears to be an independent risk factor for MSS but not for MFS. Worse melanoma prognosis in elderly could be explained by factors unrelated to the tumour, such as age-related frailty and comorbidities that limit the access to systemic treatments and, eventually, age-related immune dysfunction.

Abstract
We present a case of a 60-year-old patient who had several flares of nonscaling, erythematous, urticarial annular skin lesions on her abdomen, buttocks and proximal extremities, possibly related to COVID-19 vaccination. Skin biopsy and histopathological examination revealed a dense perivascular and interstitial inflammatory infiltrate involving the upper and mid dermis composed of lymphocytes and abundant eosinophils. Degranulation of eosinophils with occasional flame figures was also observed.

The initial dissemination of cancer cells from many primary tumors implies intravasation to lymphatic nodes or blood vessels. To investigate the mechanisms involved, we analyzed the expression of small non-coding RNAs in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), a prevalent tumor that mainly spreads to lymph nodes. We report the reduced expression of small nucleolar RNAs in primary cSCCs that metastasized when compared to non-metastasizing cSCCs, and the progressive loss of DKC1 (dyskerin, which stabilizes the small nucleolar RNAs) along the metastasis. DKC1 depletion in cSCC cells triggered lipid metabolism by altering the mevalonate pathway and the acquisition of metastatic traits. Treatment of DKC1-depleted cells with simvastatin, an inhibitor of the mevalonate pathway, blocked the expression of proteins involved in the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Consistently, the expression of the enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase 1 was associated with pathological features of high metastatic risk in cSCC patients. Our data underpin the relevance of the mevalonate metabolism in metastatic dissemination and pave the possible incorporation of therapeutic approaches among the antineoplastic drugs used in routine patient care.

Abstract
BackgroundThe role of allergen sensitization in IL-31 production by T cells and specifically in the clinical context of atopic dermatitis (AD) has not been characterized.MethodsThe response to house dust mite (HDM) in purified memory T cells cocultured with epidermal cells from AD patients (n=58) and control subjects (n=11) was evaluated. AD-associated cytokines from culture supernatants, plasma proteins and mRNA expression from cutaneous lesions were assessed and related with the clinical features of the patients.ResultsHDM-induced IL-31 production by memory T cells defined two subsets of AD patients according to the presence or absence of IL-31 response. Patients in the IL-31 producing group showed a more inflammatory profile, and increased HDM-specific (sp) and total IgE levels compared to the IL-31 non-producing group. A correlation between IL-31 production and patient’s pruritus intensity, plasma CCL27 and periostin was detected. When the same patients were analyzed based on sp IgE and total IgE levels, an increased IL-31 in vitro response, as well as type 2 markers in plasma and cutaneous lesions, was found in patients with sp IgE levels > 100 kUA/L and total IgE levels > 1000 kU/L. The IL-31 response by memory T cells was restricted to the cutaneous lymphocyte-associated antigen (CLA)+ T-cell subset.ConclusionIgE sensitization to HDM allows stratifying IL-31 production by memory T cells in AD patients and relating it to particular clinical phenotypes of the disease.

Abstract
Few cases of isolated (non-syndromic, non-endocrinopathy) cases of familial acanthosis nigricans (FAN) have been described, and most without genetic testing. We present a three-generation family with isolated FAN, whose genetic study revealed an heterozygous FGFR3 gene variant [NM_0001425: c.2302G>T; p.(Glu768Ter); E768X]. This work presents this mutation linked to isolated FAN, and suggests genetic mechanisms that could explain the pro-mitogenic effect on the skin without bone involvement and the spectrum of clinical manifestations associated to germline FGFR3 mutations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCL) are uncommon. Observations based on the first year of data from the Spanish Registry of Primary Cutaneous Lymphomas (RELCP, in its Spanish abbreviation) of the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (AEDV) were published in February 2018. This report covers RELCP data for the first 5 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS RELCP data were collected prospectively and included diagnosis, treatments, tests, and the current status of patients. We compiled descriptive statistics of the data registered during the first 5 years. RESULTS Information on 2020 patients treated at 33 Spanish hospitals had been included in the RELCP by December 2021. Fifty-nine percent of the patients were men; the mean age was 62.2 years. The lymphomas were grouped into 4 large diagnostic categories: mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome, 1112 patients (55%); primary B-cell cutaneous lymphoma, 547 patients (27.1%); primary CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders, 222 patients (11%), and other T-cell lymphomas, 116 patients (5.8%). Nearly 75% of the tumors were registered in stage I. After treatment, 43.5% achieved complete remission and 27% were stable at the time of writing. Treatments prescribed were topical corticosteroids (1369 [67.8%]), phototherapy (890 patients [44.1%]), surgery (412 patients [20.4%]), and radiotherapy (384 patients [19%]). CONCLUSION The characteristics of cutaneous lymphomas in Spain are similar to those reported for other series. The large size of the RELCP registry at 5 years has allowed us to give more precise descriptive statistics than in the first year. This registry facilitates the clinical research of the AEDV's lymphoma interest group, which has already published articles based on the RELCP data.

Abstract
The objective of the study was to assess the pathogenic and treatment relevance of Platelet Activating factor (PAF) in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). The expression and cellular location of PAF receptor (PAFR) and serum levels of PAF and PAF acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) in patients with moderate/severe CSU (n = 45) and healthy controls (HCs, n = 17) were studied. Skin samples from the active wheal (LS-CSU, 13 samples for qPCR and 33 for immunohistochemistry) and non-lesional skin (NLS-CSU, 13 samples) of CSU patients and HCs (13 samples and 5 for immunohistochemistry) were analyzed. Serum PAF and PAF-AH levels were measured by ELISA and compared between HC (10 samples) and CSU patients (25 samples) and, among them, between those refractory and non-refractory to second-generation H1 -antihistamines (sgAH). PAFR mRNA expression was significantly higher in LS-CSU versus HCs (p = 0.014). PAFR positive staining in immunohistochemistry was mainly found in the epidermal basal layer in HCs, whereas it was broadly present along the epidermis in LS-CSU samples. Endothelial cells showed PAFR expression exclusively in LS-CSU and NLS-CSU samples. PAFR expression was observed in the nerves of HC, LS-CSU, and NLS-CSU samples. Double PAFR/CD43 expression showed that T-lymphocytes were the main cell type from the wheal inflammatory infiltrate expressing PAFR. A significantly lower PAF-AH/PAF ratio was observed in sgAH non-responders versus responders (6.1 vs. 12.6; p = 0.049). Our study confirms that PAF is a mediator of wheal pathogenesis in CSU. The significantly lower PAF-AH/PAF ratio in sgAH non-responders vs responders suggests that PAF could be a potential biomarker of sgAH refractoriness.

Abstract
ABSTRACT A 59-year-old woman presented with a persistent eruption manifested as multiple agminated miliary facial papules. Histopathological examination showed prominent nodular dermal lymphoid infiltrates with hyperplastic follicles that were initially interpreted as B-cell reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. Several years later, an additional biopsy showed a dense perifollicular infiltrate with reactive primary and secondary follicles. Accompanying T cells corresponded to CD3/CD4/PD1/CXCL13-positive cells and scattered Epstein-Barr virus-positive B cells were identified by in situ hybridization. A monoclonal T-cell population was demonstrated by TCRγ and TCRβ Polymerase Chain Reaction amplification, as well as a minor abnormal circulating T-cell population by flow cytometry (0.62% of the white blood cells, CD4+CD3s-CD7-). A biopsy specimen from an enlarged right supraclavicular lymph node disclosed nodal involvement by angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma. The observation of B-cell dermal nodular infiltrates with well-demarcated lymphoid aggregates forming primary lymphoid follicles may lead to overlook the T-cell component in some cases of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma. In such cases, a careful assessment of the apparently minor T-cell component is important to establish a correct diagnosis.

Abstract
We describe a patient with unilateral ulcerations on the forehead and scalp, occurring 3 months after herpes zoster infection. Further investigations were unremarkable. Histology showed epidermal and upper dermal ulceration associated with a mild nonspecific dermal inflammatory infiltrate composed of lymphoid cells and histiocytes.
