Abstract
Patients living with HIV may experience a variety of inflammatory dermatoses, ranging from exacerbations of underlying conditions to those triggered by HIV infection itself. This article presents a current literature review on the etiology, diagnosis and management of atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, pityriasis rubra pilaris, lichen planus, seborrheic dermatitis, eosinophilic folliculitis, pruritic papular eruption and pruritus, in patients living with HIV.

Abstract
Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a common skin disease with signs and symptoms that may vary by skin color, associated medical conditions, environmental factors, and vehicle preference. Diagnosis of SD is based on presence of flaky, "greasy" patches, and/or thin plaques accompanied by erythema of the scalp, face, ears, chest, and groin and is associated with pruritus in many patients. The presentation may vary in different skin types and hyper- or hypopigmentation may occur, with or without erythema and minimal or no scaling. While the pathogenesis is not certain, 3 key factors generally agreed upon include lipid secretion by sebaceous glands, Malassezia spp. colonization, and some form of immunologic dysregulation that predisposes the patient to SD. Treatment involves reducing proliferation of, and inflammatory response to, Malassezia spp. Topical therapies, including antifungal agents and low potency corticosteroids, are the mainstay of treatment but may be limited by efficacy and side effects. Few novel treatments for SD are currently being studied; however, clinical trials assessing the use of topical phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors have been completed. Improving outcomes in SD requires recognizing patient-specific manifestations/locations of the disease, including increased awareness of how it affects people of all skin types.

Pinet V, Lambert C, Goncalves É, Jacomet C, Devoize L. Access to dental care is still complex in 2022 for patients living with HIV despite the need for careful monitoring of pathologies of the oral mucosa. Results of a monocentric cross-sectional study in the Infectious Diseases Department of Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital. Clin Oral Investig 2023; 28:57. [PMID: 38157049 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-023-05456-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Describe the dental care pathway of people living with HIV (PLHIV) and their oral pathologies. MATERIALS AND METHODS A monocentric cross-sectional study involving adult PLHIVs followed (October 2021/April 2022) in our department. Socio-demographic and medical data, course of dental care, and presence of pathologies of the oral mucosa were recorded. RESULTS 112 PLHIV (71% men, 54 ± 14 years) were included. Of the 112, 96% had already consulted a dentist, and 78% had a referring dentist; 73% had disclosed their seropositivity; for 84%, the visit proceeded normally, 7% refused treatment; for 8%, the dentist was not comfortable, and for 4% the dentist's attitude became negative; 21% of the PLHIV had already encountered difficulties in finding a dentist including 37% because of their viral status. Among the oral pathologies listed, 23 lesions were identified: 15 (65%) were unrelated to HIV, 4 (17%) were classified stages B/C (1 Kaposi's sarcoma, 1 oral villous leukoplakia, 2 chronic candidiasis), and 4 (17%) were lesions with evolution specifically due to HIV (2 inhomogeneous leukoplakias, 1 cancer, 1 verrucous papilloma). CONCLUSION Although 78% of the PLHIV included had a referring dentist, discrimination by dentists toward PLHIV still persists (16% of the PLHIV concerned). CLINICAL RELEVANCE 27% of participants did not feel ready to disclose their infection. The resulting lack of follow-up is also a loss of opportunity because while most of the small number of oral lesions diagnosed in this population are related to age or comorbidities, some are serious and need to be identified.

Abstract
Introduction Dermatological manifestations are common manifestations of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease, seen in 80% to 95% of HIV-infected patients. Dermatological manifestations are considered clinical indicators to predict and assess the underlying immune status. Aim This study aims to document the dermatological manifestations in relation to CD4 count in people living with HIV (PLHIV). Materials and Methods Cross-sectional study in 250 PLHIV fulfilling inclusion-exclusion criteria was conducted. Variables including sociodemographic profile, recent CD4 count (data from antiretroviral therapy center), and dermatological manifestation (physical examination) were collected. Clinical diagnosis was established, and patients were grouped according to the World Health Organization immunological staging. Results Majority of PLHIV (39.6%) were in the age group of 31-40 years. Males were affected more than females (1.6:1). A total of 364 dermatoses were observed; dermatological manifestation per patient ranged from 1 to 4. 32.80%. PLHIV had CD4 count >500 cells/mm3, 15.60% had CD4 count between 200-349 cells/mm3. Majority of dermatosis had infectious etiology (77.6%), out of which dermatophytosis (27.2%) was the most common infectious condition, whereas pruritic papular eruption was the most common (11.6%) noninfectious condition. A statistically significant association of CD4 count was found with dermatophytosis (P ≤ 0.001) and candidiasis (P = 0.001). Conclusion The study showed a significant association between the number of dermatological manifestation and CD4 count as majority of study participants (67.2%) had CD4 <500 cells/mm3 at the time of episode of dermatosis.

Abstract
The southeastern US is a domestic epicentre for incident HIV with high prevalence of herpes simplex virus (HSV) coinfection. We estimated the incidence rates (IR) of symptomatic herpetic anogenital ulcer disease (HAUD) and assessed its associations with demographic and clinical characteristics, specifically with immunological markers using median, nadir and trajectory CD4 counts.

Abstract
We report a case of noninfectious vacuolar interface dermatitis associated with colonic and perianal ulceration in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), which responded to immunosuppressive treatment. Our findings suggest that interface dermatitis in the setting of AIDS may warrant further gastrointestinal evaluation and may respond to immunosuppression.
