Abstract
Burnout syndrome is a mental health condition related to chronic occupational stress; its prevalence, as well as its relationship with other mental health disorders in physicians, has become a topic of growing interest. However, no studies with large sample sizes evaluate this association in dermatologists. With this background, a cross-sectional study was designed, which included 420 Spanish dermatologists; the mean age was 44.5 years (12.39), and 62% (260/420) were women. Eleven percent (45/420) of the participants presented a moderate risk of burnout, more than half of the sample had at least one of the burnout symptoms, 47% (198/420) had some degree of anxiety, and 20.3% (85/420) presented some degree of depression. Less than 1% (4/420) demonstrated a high risk of alcohol use disorder. Being female was associated with a higher risk of depression and anxiety. Meanwhile, men and residents showed an increasedrisk of alcohol use disorder. Burnout and its domains showed a significative association with depression and anxiety, while no relationship with alcohol abuse was observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic may have adversely affected the early diagnosis of skin cancer. OBJECTIVE To compare epidemiological, clinical and histopathological characteristics in patients undergoing cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) surgery before and after the beginning of the pandemic. MATERIAL & METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study including two case series: (1) patients operated on for SCC in the year after the first state of alarm in Spain (15 March 2020), and (2) patients with SCC operated on in the previous year. Epidemiological, clinical and histopathological variables, tumour stage and risk grade were collected. RESULTS 248 patients were included (127 undergoing surgery before the pandemic and 121 after the pandemic). After the beginning of the pandemic, the percentage of high-risk SCC significantly increased from 35.3% to 46.2% (p=0.011). However, no significant differences were found in thickness, perineural invasion or metastases. CONCLUSIONS Although there has not been a significant reduction in the number of SCC operated on after the pandemic, there has been a significant increase in high-risk SCC. All this could lead to an increase in skin cancer mortality in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Quality of professional life (QPL) is defined as a sense of well-being derived from a balance between the challenges of work and the resources available to deal with them. Impaired QPL can contribute to burnout. The aim of this study was to evaluate QPL in Spanish dermatologists using a validated questionnaire. MATERIAL AND METHODS We designed a cross-sectional study in which Spanish dermatologists were invited to complete an online questionnaire sent out by messaging applications. The dermatologists were asked to provide sociodemographic information, answer 3 open questions, and complete the 35-item Spanish QPL questionnaire (Spanish abbreviation, CVP-35). RESULTS We analyzed the information submitted by 106 dermatologists (62 women, 58%) with a mean age of 41 years (95% CI, 43.3-38.8 years). Women and department heads scored significantly higher in the workload domain of the questionnaire (P=.02 and P=.005, respectively). A heavy caseload was mentioned as the main factor contributing to impaired QPL and the main change in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. CONCLUSIONS Female dermatologists reported heavier workloads. Heavy caseloads and more remote work were the main changes identified after the COVID-19 pandemic. Heavy caseloads have a significant impact on the QPL of dermatologists in Spain. Reducing caseloads would improve general job satisfaction and quality of care provision.

Abstract
The only curative treatment for congenital erythropoietic porphyria (CEP) is bone marrow transplantation (BMT), but long-term data on this therapy in CEP are scarce. We present the evolution after 12 years of a case of CEP treated with BMT. The BMT has allowed the young patient to develop adequately and to avoid devastating consequences, but mild skin symptoms along with liver and kidney damage persist.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Neutral argon plasma (NAP) system could meet the requirements to achieve oncological cytoreduction of peritoneal carcinomatosis with miliary lesions, minimizing the associated morbidity. This phase I/II trial aims to establish the desirable dose that is safe and effective in eliminating tumor cells with lower penetration. METHODS Patients diagnosed with different origins for peritoneal carcinomatosis and miliary implants were selected for the study. The safe and potentially effective dose (desirability) of NAP was evaluated according to three factors: distance (mm), application time (s) and power (%), to evaluate the response variables such as the presence of tumor cells (Y/N) and the depth of penetration. RESULTS Ten patients and 120 samples were evaluated and treated with NAP. There was no vascular or organ injury intraoperative using a pre-established dose of 100% (coagulation mode) at a distance of 2-3 cm. The distance was found to be correlated with the presence of the tumor cells in ex-vivo analysis, with an OR of 15.4 (4.0-111.4). The time and energy used were protective factors to eliminate tumor cells with an OR of 0.4 (0.1-0.9) and 0.8 (0.8-0.9), respectively. The safest and most effective desirability results were as follows i) energy 80% during 2-4 s with a distance of 2 cm (0.89), and ii) energy 100% during 2-4 s with a distance of 3 cm (0.90). CONCLUSIONS The use of NAP during a CRS and HIPEC is safe and effective for eradicating tumor cells on the peritoneal surface at suggested doses of energy, distance and duration. TRIAL IDENTIFICATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04904042.

Abstract
Introduction Teledermatology consultations have recently been on the rise, especially due to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. The role of teledermatology has been extensively discussed as a mean for the education of dermatology residents. Nevertheless, little has been explored on its use as a pedagogical tool for medical students. The objectives of this study were to assess the level of satisfaction of medical students with teledermatology and to evaluate their opinion about its use as an educational tool. Methods A cross-sectional study was carried out at the Dermatology Department, Hospital Universitario Virgen de las Nieves, Granada (Spain). Participants were fourth-year medical students. Every student would spend half of their internship in face-to-face consultations and the other half in teledermatology consultations. Data was collected via self-administered questionnaires. Results Eighty one students were finally surveyed, being 66.67% (73/81) female. A majority of students considered a mixed clinical internship model (face-to-face consultations combined with teledermatology) more suitable for obtaining higher marks in the subject of dermatology and in the Medical Intern Resident exam (p = 0.04). Nevertheless, face-to-face practice was considered more useful for their training as general practitioners (p = 0.04). Conclusion Despite the fact that students highly value doctor-patient relationship, teledermatology is considered a powerful educational tool.

Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory chronic disease with difficult management. In some scenarios, intralesional (IL) treatments could be useful. However, the scientific evidence available is limited and heterogeneous. We aimed to synthesize the available scientific evidence on IL treatments in HS. We conducted a systematic review in July 2021. The clinical databases reviewed included MEDLINE and Embase. All types of epidemiological studies and case series with at least 10 patients were included; reviews, guidelines, protocols, conference abstracts, case series with less than 10 patients, and case reports were excluded. Fifteen articles representing 599 patients and 1,032 lesions were included for review. Corticosteroid injections were the most reported treatment. They showed effectiveness for the treatment of acute inflammatory lesions and fistulas in terms of reduction of lesion counts, symptoms, and signs of inflammation and were safe in general terms. Light-based therapies were the other main treatment group, including photodynamic therapy and 1,064-nm diode laser. They were also effective, but more local and systemic adverse events were reported. Other treatments included botulinum toxin type B and punch-trocar-assisted cryoinsufflation (cryopunch). They were effective and safe, although were reported anecdotally. The main limitation of the systematic review was the general quality of the articles included. In conclusion, IL treatments such as corticosteroid injections and light-based therapies seem to be effective and safe for both acute inflammatory lesions and fistulas, although more prospective studies, with higher sample sizes and with standardized outcomes are needed to provide more scientific evidence on the subject.

Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that has been associated with a greater risk of metabolic and cardiovascular comorbidities. The aim of this study is to assess cardiovascular risk by means of intima-media thickness (IMT), metabolic syndrome, and other potential biomarkers in patients with severe hidradenitis suppurativa who are candidates for biologic therapy and to explore potentially associated factors. A cross-sectional study was performed. Body mass index (BMI), carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), and blood tests, including glycemic and lipid profile, insulin, vitamin D, and inflammation markers were performed. Fifty patients were included in the study; the male/female ratio was 3:2. The mean age was 38 years, and the mean disease duration was 21.8 years. The mean carotid IMT was 651.39 μm. A positive association of IMT with disease duration, tobacco consumption, and HbA1c levels was observed. HbA1c correlated with the age of onset, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, and glucose levels. Vitamin D levels inversely correlated with the number of areas affected. In conclusion, patients with severe HS present a higher cardiovascular risk, but it is not distributed equally within the patients: Tobacco consumption, inadequate glycemic control, and disease duration could be useful clinical and biochemical markers to identify patients at higher risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some skin diseases may modify epidermal barrier function. Psoriasis is a chronic multi-systemic inflammatory disease that affects the epidermal barrier. Phototherapy is an option for treating psoriasis, but little is known about how epidermal barrier function is modified by phototherapy in psoriatic patients. OBJECTIVES (a) To compare skin homeostasis between involved and uninvolved skin in psoriatic patients with healthy controls (b) To evaluate changes in the epidermal barrier function in psoriatic patients treated with phototherapy. METHODS Sixty patients with plaque-type psoriasis and sixty gender and age-matched healthy controls were enrolled. Temperature, transepidermal water loss (TEWL), stratum corneum hydration (SCH), pH, elasticity, erythema and melanin index were measured using non-invasive tools in the healthy control and involved and uninvolved psoriatic skin before and after phototherapy. RESULTS Healthy controls had lower TEWL and erythema index and higher SCH than psoriatic patients, both at uninvolved psoriatic skin and psoriasis plaques. TEWL was higher at psoriasis plaques than at uninvolved skin (19.20 vs 11.57 g/h/m2 ; P < .001). Following phototherapy, a decreasing trend was observed for TEWL, of 1.03 (SD 0.75) and 0.97 (SD 0.81) g/h/m2 for uninvolved and involved skin respectively. SCH was significantly lower at psoriatic plaques than at uninvolved skin (7.32 vs 36.62Arbitrary Units [AU]; P < .001). SCH increased by 1.15AU (SD 0.26) on psoriatic plaques after the phototherapy session (P < .001). CONCLUSION Psoriatic plaques showed epidermal barrier dysfunction compared to uninvolved skin and healthy controls. Phototherapy may improve epidermal barrier function in psoriatic patients. SCH increased after a phototherapy session on the psoriatic plaques.

Abstract
Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and high throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) have been used to assess histone methylation (epigenetic modification) dynamics within the internal organs of zebrafish after spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) infection. Our results show H3K4me3 up-methylation in gene promoters associated with innate immune response during the first 5 days after SVCV infection. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis confirmed up-methylation in 218 genes in the "immune system process" category. In particular, the promoters of interferon (ifn), interferon stimulated genes (isg), Toll-like receptors (tlr) and c-reactive protein (crp) multi gene sets were marked with the permissive H3K4 methylation. Higher histone 3 methylation was associated with higher transcription levels of the corresponding genes. Therefore, the evidence presented here suggests that transcriptional regulation at the promoter level of key immune genes of the interferon signaling pathway and c-reactive proteins genes can be modulated by epigenetic modification of histones. This study emphasizes the importance of epigenetic control in the response of zebrafish to SVCV infection.

Abstract
We report a case of pachydermodactyly (PDD). PDD is a benign, asymptomatic soft tissue swelling affecting the skin of the lateral aspects of the proximal interphalangeal joints of the fingers, mostly in young adolescent males. It has often been interpreted as a consequence of tic-like behavior as part of an obsessive-compulsive disorder. Although the diagnosis is essentially clinical, skin biopsy shows compact orthokeratotic hyperkeratosis, increased numbers of collagen fibers and fibroblasts, and no inflammatory changes. A rapid clinical recognition of PDD should avoid many unproductive and expensive diagnostic tests.

Abstract
The antimicrobial potential of cauliflower, broccoli, and okara byproducts was assessed against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Bacillus cereus, and Listeria monocytogenes serovar 4b growth behavior was assessed under exposure to 5% vegetable byproducts added to the reference medium, buffered peptone water (0.1% [wt/vol]), at 37°C. Although the byproducts were not effective against L. monocytogenes, they were bactericidal against Salmonella Typhimurium, E. coli O157:H7, and B. cereus. The most promising results were achieved with the cauliflower-Salmonella Typhimurium combination, because the bacterial population was reduced by 3.11 log10 cycles after 10 h of incubation at 37°C as a result of 5% cauliflower addition. Further studies were carried out for this combination, at different cauliflower concentrations (0, 0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 15%) and at temperatures in the range of 5-37°C. The greatest inactivation level (6.11 log10 cycles) was achieved at refrigeration temperature (5°C) using 15% cauliflower addition. Both temperature and cauliflower concentration significantly (p≤0.05) influenced the Salmonella Typhimurium inactivation level. The kinetic parameters were adjusted to mathematical models. The modified Gompertz mathematical model provided an accurate fit (root-mean-square error (RMSE) [0.00009-0.21] and adjusted-R(2) [0.81-0.99]) to experimental Salmonella Typhimurium survival curves describing inactivation kinetics of the pathogen to the antimicrobial effect of cauliflower byproduct.

Abstract
Natural ingredients--cinnamon, cocoa, vanilla, and anise--were assessed based on Bacillus cereus vegetative cell growth inhibition in a mixed liquid whole egg and skim milk beverage (LWE-SM), under different conditions: ingredient concentration (1, 2.5, and 5% [wt/vol]) and incubation temperature (5, 10, and 22 °C). According to the results obtained, ingredients significantly (p<0.05) reduced bacterial growth when supplementing the LWE-SM beverage. B. cereus behavior was mathematically described for each substrate by means of a modified Gompertz equation. Kinetic parameters, lag time, and maximum specific growth rate were obtained. Cinnamon was the most bacteriostatic ingredient and cocoa the most bactericidal one when they were added at 5% (wt/vol) and beverages were incubated at 5 °C. The bactericidal effect of cocoa 5% (wt/vol) reduced final B. cereus log10 counts (log Nf, log10 (colony-forming units/mL)) by 4.10 ± 0.21 log10 cycles at 5 °C.
