Race Linked to Increased Risk for Pruritic Skin Conditions in People With HIV
Black patients with HIV may be at increased risk for pruritic disorders compared with race-matched controls and white patients with HIV.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Prognostic Value of INPP5A Expression in Recurrent and Metastatic Disease
Low immunohistochemical staining expression of INPP5A predicts poor overall survival in recurrent and metastatic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.
High Vitamin A Intake May Reduce Risk for Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The potential benefit of vitamin A on reducing risk for squamous cell carcinoma should be balanced with its risk for osteoporosis and hip fractures in each patient.
Carbamazepine and Lamotrigine Associated With Increased Risk for SCC
A comparison of AEDs finds that while most were not associated with skin cancer, carbamazepine and lamotrigine were associated with squamous cell carcinoma.
Deep Learning Models for Skin Cancer Detection
With rapid advances in the use of machine learning in the past several years, there have been exciting developments in the field of dermatology.
Mohs Surgery Alone Associated With Improved Outcomes in High-Risk Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The investigators reported the rates of poor outcomes in patients with hrSCC treated with MMS alone, and explored specific clinical factors that may be more predictive of these outcomes.
Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Risk Associated With Voriconazole Use
The systematic literature review and meta-analysis were conducted to clarify the association between voriconazole use and SCC risk.
Case Report: Unusual Combined Merkel, Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Situ
Investigators report a rare case of combined Merkel cell and squamous cell carcinoma confined almost exclusively to the epidermis.
Risk for Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Increased With Photosensitizing Antihypertensive Drugs
With the knowledge that many ADs are photosensitizing, the investigators sought to examine the association between AD use and risk for cSCC among a cohort of non-Hispanic white patients with hypertension.
Melanoma, Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer Associated With Reduced Risk for Alzheimer’s
Additional examination of these relationships is warranted to help clarify the complex biologic and psychosocial interactions among Alzheimer disease, malignant melanoma, and nonmelanoma skin cancer.
