Abstract
BACKGROUND Angioedema (AE) manifests with intermittent, localized, self-limiting swelling of the subcutaneous and/or submucosal tissue. AE is heterogeneous, can be hereditary or acquired, occurs only once or be recurrent, with or without wheals, due to mast cell mediators, bradykinin or other mechanisms. Currently, different taxonomic systems are used, making it difficult to compare the results of studies, develop multicenter collaboration, and harmonize treatments of AE patients. OBJECTIVE To develop a consensus on the definition, acronyms, nomenclature, and classification of angioedema (DANCE). METHODS The initiative involved 91 experts from 35 countries and was endorsed by 53 scientific, medical societies, and patient organizations. A consensus was reached by online discussion and voting using the Delphi process over a period of 16 months (June 2021 to November 2022). RESULTS The DANCE initiative resulted in an international consensus on the definition, classification and terminology of AE. The new consensus classification features five types and endotypes of AE and a harmonized vocabulary of abbreviations and acronyms. CONCLUSION The DANCE classification complements current clinical guidelines and expert consensus recommendations on the diagnostic workup and treatment of AE. DANCE does not replace current clinical guidelines and expert consensus algorithms and should not be misconstrued in a way that affects reimbursement of medicines prescribed by a physician using sound clinical judgment. We anticipate that the new AE taxonomy and nomenclature will harmonize and facilitate AE research and clinical studies, thereby improving patient care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical trials investigating drugs for acute treatment of hereditary angioedema attacks have assessed many different outcomes. This heterogeneity limits comparability of trial results and may lead to selective outcome reporting bias and a high burden on trial participants. OBJECTIVE To achieve consensus on a Core Outcome Set comprising key outcomes that should ideally be utilized in all clinical efficacy trials involving acute treatment of hereditary angioedema attacks. METHODS A Delphi consensus study was conducted involving all relevant parties: hereditary angioedema patients, hereditary angioedema expert clinicians and clinical researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and regulatory bodies. Two internet-based survey rounds were conducted. In round 1, panelists indicated the importance of individual outcomes used in clinical trials on a 9-point Likert scale. Based on these results, a core outcome set was developed and voted on by panelists in round 2. RESULTS Fifty-eight worldwide panelists completed both rounds. The first round demonstrated high importance scores and substantial agreement among the panelists. In the second round, a consensus of ≥90% was achieved on a core outcome set consisting of five key outcomes: change in overall symptom severity at one predetermined time point between 15 minutes and 4 hours after treatment, time to end of progression of all symptoms, need for rescue medication during the entire attack, impairment of daily activities, and treatment satisfaction. CONCLUSION This international study obtained a high level of consensus on a core outcome set for acute treatment of hereditary angioedema attacks consisting of five key outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various bacterial species form a microbiome in the skin. In the past, dead Staphylococcus aureus derived from atopic dermatitis (AD) are taken up by keratinocytes; however, whether live S. aureus can be taken up by keratinocytes is unknown. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine whether live AD strains of S. aureus internalize into the keratinocytes and how the internalization changes under conditions in which other bacterial species including S. epidermidis are present. METHODS HaCaT cells were cultured with live S. aureus and S. epidermidis (live or heat-treated) or their culture supernatants. After coculture, the change in the amount of S. aureus in the cytoplasm of HaCaT cells was analyzed using, a high-throughput imaging system, Opera Phenix™. RESULTS Live S. aureus were taken up in the cytoplasm of HaCaT cells. Coculturing live S. aureus with live S. epidermidis or the culture supernatants decreased the abundance of S. aureus in the cytoplasm. The heat-treated culture supernatants of live S. epidermidis or culture supernatants of other S. strains did not decrease the abundance of S. aureus in the cytoplasm. CONCLUSION Live S. aureus was internalized into the cytoplasm of HaCaT cells as does heat-treated S. aureus. In addition, the heat-sensitive substances secreted by coculture with S. epidermidis and keratinocytes inhibited the uptake of S. aureus by keratinocytes.

Abstract
Background Berotralstat is a once-daily oral inhibitor of plasma kallikrein for the prophylaxis of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in patients ≥12 years. APeX-J aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of berotralstat in Japan. Methods APeX-J was a Phase III trial comprising 3 parts (NCT03873116). Part 1 was a randomized, placebo-controlled evaluation of berotralstat 150 or 110 mg over 24 weeks. Part 2 was a 28-week dose-blinded phase in which berotralstat-treated patients continued the same dose and placebo patients were re-randomized to berotralstat 150 or 110 mg. In Part 3, all patients remaining on study received berotralstat 150 mg in an open-label manner for up to an additional 52 weeks. The primary endpoint of Parts 2 and 3 was long-term safety and tolerability, and secondary endpoints examined effectiveness. Results Seventeen patients entered Part 2, and 11 continued into Part 3. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported by 14/17 patients (82.4%) in Parts 2 or 3; the most common were nasopharyngitis, abdominal pain, cystitis, influenza, and vertigo. One patient (5.9%) experienced a drug-related TEAE (Grade 4 increased hepatic enzyme). No drug-related serious TEAEs were reported. For patients who completed 26 months of treatment with berotralstat 150 mg (n = 5), mean (standard error of the mean) monthly HAE attack rates and on-demand medication use decreased from baseline by 1.15 (0.09) attacks/month and 2.8 (0.64) doses/month, respectively. Sustained improvements were also observed in patient quality of life and treatment satisfaction. Conclusions Long-term prophylaxis with berotralstat raised no new safety signals and was effective at reducing attacks and improving patient-reported outcomes. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03873116. Registered March 13, 2019. Retrospectively registered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) do not achieve complete control of their symptoms with current available treatments. In a dose-finding phase 2b study, ligelizumab improved urticaria symptoms in patients with H1-antihistamine (H1-AH) refractory CSU. Here, we report the efficacy and safety outcomes from two ligelizumab phase 3 studies. METHODS PEARL-1 and PEARL-2 were identically designed randomised, double-blind, active-controlled and placebo-controlled parallel-group studies. Patients aged 12 years or older with moderate-to-severe H1-AH refractory CSU were recruited from 347 sites in 46 countries and randomly allocated in a 3:3:3:1 ratio via Interactive Response Technology to 72 mg ligelizumab, 120 mg ligelizumab, 300 mg omalizumab, or placebo, dosed every 4 weeks, for 52 weeks. Patients allocated to placebo received 120 mg ligelizumab from week 24. The primary endpoint was change-from-baseline (CFB) in weekly Urticaria Activity Score (UAS7) at week 12, and was analysed in all eligible adult patients according to the treatment assigned at random allocation. Safety was assessed throughout the study in all patients who received at least one dose of the study drug. The studies were registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03580369 (PEARL-1) and NCT03580356 (PEARL-2). Both trials are now complete. FINDINGS Between Oct 17, 2018, and Oct 26, 2021, 2057 adult patients were randomly allocated across both studies (72 mg ligelizumab n=614; 120 mg ligelizumab n=616; 300 mg omalizumab n=618, and placebo n=209). A total of 1480 (72%) of 2057 were female, and 577 (28%) of 2057 were male. Mean UAS7 at baseline across study groups ranged from 29·37 to 31·10. At week 12, estimated treatment differences in mean CFB-UAS7 were as follows: for 72 mg ligelizumab versus placebo, -8·0 (95% CI -10·6 to -5·4; PEARL-1), -10·0 (-12·6 to -7·4; PEARL-2); 72 mg ligelizumab versus omalizumab 0·7 (-1·2 to 2·5; PEARL-1), 0·4 (-1·4 to 2·2; PEARL-2); 120 mg ligelizumab versus placebo -8·0 (-10·5 to -5·4; PEARL-1), -11·1 (-13·7 to -8·5; PEARL-2); 120 mg ligelizumab versus omalizumab 0·7 (-1·1 to 2·5; PEARL-1), -0·7 (-2·5 to 1·1; PEARL-2). Both doses of ligelizumab were superior to placebo (p<0·0001), but not to omalizumab, in both studies. No new safety signals were identified for ligelizumab or omalizumab. INTERPRETATION In the phase 3 PEARL studies, ligelizumab demonstrated superior efficacy versus placebo but not versus omalizumab. The safety profile of ligelizumab was consistent with previous studies. FUNDING Novartis Pharma.

Abstract
Background Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a common condition treated by allergist/immunologists, but the only FDA-approved biologic medication, omalizumab, may be underutilized globally. Objective This study was performed to determine the global prescription of omalizumab for treatment of CSU by allergists/immunologists. Methods Anonymous questionnaire surveys were distributed online to World Allergy Organization (WAO) members worldwide. Categorical data were analyzed for descriptive analysis using one-way frequency tabulation in SAS 9.4. Results There were 348 respondents (43 missing data); Average age 51 (range 28-90); M/F 48%/52%. 58% had > 15 years of clinical experience and 10% < 5; 42% worked in private clinics, 36% public hospitals, 24% academia, 18% private hospitals, and 4% in community practice. Eighty-two percent (82%) prescribed omalizumab for CSU patients and use of omalizumab was highest among young practitioners. The most significant barriers were cost (63%) and restricted formulary (24%). Drug safety (63%) and chances of adverse events (47%) were the most significant factors deciding treatment. Twenty-two percent (22%) reported 80-100% of CSU patients were complete responders to omalizumab; 34% preferred increasing frequency (q 2-weeks), and 18% preferred increasing dose (600 mg q 4-weeks) for partial or non-responders. UAS7, UCT, and CU-QoL were used to assess CSU by 55%, 29%, and 25% of respondents, respectively. Autoimmune thyroid disease (62%), thyroid abnormality (43%) and allergic rhinitis (35%) were the most frequent comorbidities reported. Conclusions Most clinicians favored omalizumab over other potential treatments due to safety. Although younger clinicians were more likely to prescribe omalizumab, cost and formulary access were major barriers. Only 22% of respondents reported 80% or greater of their patients had complete response to omalizumab, indicating the need for novel CSU therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is unpredictable and can severely impair patients' quality of life. Patients with CSU need a convenient, user-friendly platform to complete patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) on their mobile devices. CRUSE® , the Chronic Urticaria Self Evaluation app, aims to address this unmet need. METHODS CRUSE® was developed by an international steering committee of urticaria specialists. Priorities for the app based on recent findings in CSU were defined to allow patients to track and record their symptoms and medication use over time and send photographs. The CRUSE® app collects patient data such as age, sex, disease onset, triggers, medication, and CSU characteristics that can be sent securely to physicians, providing real-time insights. Additionally, CRUSE® contains PROMs to assess disease activity and control, which are individualised to patient profiles and clinical manifestations. RESULTS CRUSE® was launched in Germany in March 2022 and is now available for free in 17 countries. It is adapted to the local language and displays a country-specific list of available urticaria medications. English and Ukrainian versions are available worldwide. From July 2022 to June 2023, 25,710 observations were documented by 2540 users; 72.7% were females, with a mean age of 39.6 years. At baseline, 93.7% and 51.3% of users had wheals and angioedema, respectively. Second-generation antihistamines were used in 74.0% of days. CONCLUSIONS The initial data from CRUSE® show the wide use and utility of effectively tracking patients' disease activity and control, paving the way for personalised CSU management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is one of the most intractable human-specific skin diseases. However, as no experimental animal model exists, the mechanism underlying disease pathogenesis in vivo remains unclear, making the establishment of a curative treatment challenging. METHODS A novel approach combining mathematical modelling, in vitro experiments and clinical data analysis was used to infer the pathological state of CSU patients from geometric features of the skin eruptions. RESULTS Based on our hierarchical mathematical modelling, the eruptions of CSU were classified into five categories, each with distinct histamine, basophils, mast cells and coagulation factors network signatures. The analysis of 105 real CSU patients with this classification by six individual dermatologists achieved 87.6% agreement. Furthermore, our network analysis revealed that the coagulation status likely determines boundary/area pattern of wheals, while the state of spontaneous histamine release from mast cells may contribute to the divergence of size and outline of the eruptions. CONCLUSIONS Our multi-faceted approach was accurate in defining pathophysiological states of disease based on geometric features offering the potential to improve the accuracy of CSU diagnosis and better management of the disease in the clinic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although stakeholder involvement in policymaking is attracting attention in the fields of medicine and healthcare, a practical methodology has not yet been established. Rare-disease policy, specifically research priority setting for the allocation of limited research resources, is an area where evidence generation through stakeholder involvement is expected to be effective. We generated evidence for rare-disease policymaking through stakeholder involvement and explored effective collaboration among stakeholders. METHODS We constructed a space called 'Evidence-generating Commons', where patients, family members, researchers, and former policymakers can share their knowledge and experiences and engage in continual deliberations on evidence generation. Ten rare diseases were consequently represented. In the 'Commons', 25 consecutive workshops were held predominantly online, from 2019 to 2021. These workshops focused on (1) clarification of difficulties faced by rare-disease patients, (2) development and selection of criteria for priority setting, and (3) priority setting through the application of the criteria. For the first step, an on-site workshop using sticky notes was held. The data were analysed based on KJ method. For the second and third steps, workshops on specific themes were held to build consensus. The workshop agendas and methods were modified based on participants' feedback. RESULTS The 'Commons' was established with 43 participants, resulting in positive effects such as capacity building, opportunities for interactions, mutual understanding, and empathy among the participants. The difficulties faced by patients with rare diseases were classified into 10 categories. Seven research topics were identified as priority issues to be addressed including 'impediments to daily life', 'financial burden', 'anxiety', and 'burden of hospital visits'. This was performed by synthesising the results of the application of the two criteria that were particularly important to strengthen future research on rare diseases. We also clarified high-priority research topics by using criteria valued more by patients and family members than by researchers and former policymakers, and criteria with specific perspectives. CONCLUSION We generated evidence for policymaking in the field of rare diseases. This study's insights into stakeholder involvement can enhance evidence-informed policymaking. We engaged in comprehensive discussions with policymakers regarding policy implementation and planned analysis of the participants' experiences in this project.

Abstract
We evaluated the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of subcutaneous weight-adjusted icatibant for the treatment of acute hereditary angioedema attacks in Japanese pediatric patients. Two patients (aged 10-13 and 6-9 years) received icatibant for a total of four attacks. Each attack was abdominal and/or cutaneous and was treated with a single icatibant injection. Mild or moderate injection-site reactions were the only adverse events reported. Time to onset of symptom relief was 0.9-1.0 h. Icatibant was rapidly absorbed, with a pharmacokinetic profile consistent with previous studies. Simulated exposure levels were consistent with non-Japanese pediatric patients. These results support the safety and efficacy of icatibant in Japanese pediatric patients.

Abstract
The safety and efficacy of lanadelumab for the prevention of hereditary angioedema (HAE) attacks have not been studied in Japanese patients. We report outcomes from a phase 3, multicenter, open-label study (NCT04180163) of lanadelumab in Japanese patients with HAE. Japanese patients with HAE aged ≥12 years with ≥1 investigator-confirmed HAE attack during the 4-week run-in baseline period were enrolled into the study and received lanadelumab 300 mg every 2 weeks subcutaneously for 52 weeks. Dosing could be reduced to 300 mg every 4 weeks during the second 26-week treatment period if patients had well-controlled symptoms (e.g., attack-free) for 6 months. The primary efficacy endpoint was no investigator-confirmed HAE attacks (attack-free status) during days 0-182. Other outcomes included the rate of investigator-confirmed HAE attacks per month (28 days) and lanadelumab safety. Twelve patients (mean ± SD age 41.9 ± 12.4 years) were enrolled. During the first 26 weeks (days 0-182), five (41.7%) patients were attack-free. The mean ± SD HAE attack rate per month decreased by 74.0%, from 3.8 ± 2.4 during baseline to 1.2 ± 2.6 during the overall 52-week treatment period. There were no deaths or discontinuations due to treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), no severe or serious TEAEs related to lanadelumab, and no positive anti-drug antibody results. The most frequent TEAEs were injection-site reactions (37 events in six patients). Most of the injection-site reaction adverse events were mild in severity. Results of this study support the findings from two global phase 3 studies for lanadelumab use as prophylactic therapy in Japanese patients with HAE.

Abstract
This is the English version of the Japanese guidance for biologics in treating atopic dermatitis (AD). The signaling pathway mediated by interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 contributes to type 2 inflammatory responses and plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AD. IL-31 is a cytokine mainly produced by activated T cells and is known to be involved in the pruritus of AD. Biologics for AD have been approved, including dupilumab, an anti-IL-4 receptor α antibody that was approved for expanded use in AD in 2018. In 2022, nemolizumab, an anti-IL-31 receptor α antibody, was approved for pruritus of AD, and tralokinumab, an anti-IL-13 antibody, was approved for AD. Physicians who intend to use these drugs should sufficiently understand and comply with the contents of the guidelines prepared by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare to promote the optimal use of the drugs. In treatment with biologics, it is important to consider disease factors (activity and severity), treatment factors (dosage and administration as well as the efficacy and safety), and patients' background characteristics (age and comorbidities) and share this information with patients when choosing treatment options. This guidance was developed for board-certified dermatologists who specialize in treating AD, and for promoting the proper use of biologics, taking into account the variety of factors in individual patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The integrated care pathways for atopic dermatitis (AD-ICPs) aim to bridge the gap between existing AD treatment evidence-based guidelines and expert opinion based on daily practice by offering a structured multidisciplinary plan for patient management of AD. ICPs have the potential to enhance guideline recommendations by combining interventions and aspects from different guidelines, integrating quality assurance, and describing co-ordination of care. Most importantly, patients can enter the ICPs at any level depending on AD severity, resources available in their country, and economic factors such as differences in insurance reimbursement systems. METHODS The GA2 LEN ADCARE network and partners as well as all stakeholders, abbreviated as the AD-ICPs working group, were involved in the discussion and preparation of the AD ICPs during a series of subgroup workshops and meetings in years 2020 and 2021, after which the document was circulated within all GAL2 EN ADCARE centres. RESULTS The AD-ICPs outline the diagnostic procedures, possible co-morbidities, different available treatment options including differential approaches for the pediatric population, and the role of the pharmacists and other stakeholders, as well as remaining unmet needs in the management of AD. CONCLUSION The AD-ICPs provide a multidisciplinary plan for improved diagnosis, treatment, and patient feedback in AD management, as well as addressing critical unmet needs, including improved access to care, training specialists, implementation of educational programs, assessment on the impact of climate change, and fostering a personalised treatment approach. By focusing on these key areas, the initiative aims to pave the way for a brighter future in the management of AD.

Abstract
Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is characterized by daily recurring wheal and flare with itch for more than 6 weeks. The extrinsic coagulation system has been shown to be activated in correlation with CSU severity. We have reported that tissue factor (TF), a trigger of the extrinsic coagulation cascade, is synergistically expressed on vascular endothelial cells by simultaneous stimulation with TF inducers (TFI), followed by activation of the extrinsic coagulation cascade and hyper permeability in vitro. However, vascular endothelial cells are not likely to be simultaneously stimulated by multiple TFIs under physiological conditions. Therefore, in order to know whether sequential, rather than simultaneous, stimuli with interval may induce synergistic activation of TF, we investigated the time course of the priming effects of each TFI for synergistic TF expression in vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). We stimulated HUVECs with a TFI (first stimulation) and then stimulated cells with another TFI at indicated time points (second stimulation) and detected TF expression and activity. The TF expression induced by simultaneous stimulation diminished in a few hours. However, both synergistic enhancement of TF expression and activation level of the coagulation cascade were detected even when the second stimulation was added 18 or 22 h after the first stimulation. Thus, the priming effect of TFI for synergistic TF expression may persist for a half day or longer.

Abstract
Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a common skin disorder characterized by daily or almost daily recurring skin edema and flare with itch and pruritus anywhere on the body for more than 6 weeks. Although basophil- and mast cell-released inflammatory mediators, such as histamine, play important roles in the pathogenesis of CSU, the detailed underlying mechanism is not clear. Since several auto-antibodies, IgGs which recognize IgE or the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) and IgEs against other self-antigens, are detected in CSU patients, they are considered to activate both mast cells in the skin and basophils circulating in the blood. In addition, we and other groups demonstrated that the coagulation and complement system also contribute to the development of urticaria. Here, we summarized the behaviors, markers and targets of basophils in relation to the coagulation-complement system, and for the treatment of CSU.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Severe dermal pain triggered by sweating stimuli, such as bathing, exercise, and mental stress, significantly affects patients' daily lives. The pathomechanism underlying the sweating-induced dermal pain remains poorly understood and there exists no standard treatment for such pain. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of icatibant as an analgesic, a bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist, in treating sweating-induced dermal pain, and to establish the role of bradykinin in pain induction. METHODS/DESIGN A multicenter, exploratory, crossover, single-blinded, placebo-controlled randomized, comparative study will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy of subcutaneous icatibant injection (30 mg) in treating sweating-induced dermal pain. Ten patients will be enrolled and assigned randomly in a 1:1 ratio to either the icatibant-placebo or placebo-icatibant groups. The primary endpoint is the change in the visual analog scale scores for dermal pain induced by thermal load before and after treatment with icatibant or placebo. Secondary endpoints include changes in the duration of dermal pain, blood and plasma histamine levels, serum angiotensin-converting enzyme levels, and histological evaluation of skin tissue samples at the site of dermal pain. DISCUSSION The effectiveness of icatibant against sweating-induced dermal pain would provide clear evidence for the involvement of the bradykinin-bradykinin B2 receptor pathway in the pathogenesis of this condition. This finding may contribute to a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of dermal pain associated with sweating stimuli and has the potential to improve patients' quality of life by suggesting potential treatment options, specifically, using drugs that inhibit bradykinin or suppress its production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic disease with significant morbidity and mortality for which early diagnosis and effective therapy are critical. Many Asia Pacific (AP) countries still lack access to diagnostic tests and evidence-based therapies. Epidemiologic data from the AP is needed to formulate regional guidelines to improve standards of care for HAE. OBJECTIVE To investigate the estimated minimal prevalence, needs, and potential interventions for the diagnosis and management of HAE in the AP. METHODS A structured questionnaire was distributed to representative experts from member societies of the Asia Pacific Association of Allergy, Asthma and Clinical Immunology. Patient profiles and the presence of diagnostic facilities or tests, regional and national HAE guidelines, and patient support groups were reported and compared. RESULTS Completed questionnaires were received from 14 representatives of 12 member countries and territories, representing 46% of the world population. Overall minimal prevalence of HAE in the AP region was 0.02/100,000 population, with significant heterogeneity across different centers. Only one-half and one-third had registered on-demand and prophylactic medications, respectively. Few had patient support groups (58%) or regional guidelines (33%), and their existence was associated with the availability of HAE-specific medications. Availability of C1-inhibitor level testing was associated with a lower age at HAE diagnosis (P = .017). CONCLUSIONS Hereditary angioedema in the AP differs from that in Western countries. Hereditary angioedema-specific medications were registered in only a minority of countries and territories, but those with patient support groups or regional guidelines were more likely to have better access. Asia Pacific-specific consensus and guidelines are lacking and urgently needed.

Abstract
Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a debilitating skin disease characterized by intensely itchy wheals, angioedema, or both. Symptoms recur spontaneously, on a near-daily basis, over >6 weeks; many patients experience flare-ups over several years and, consequently, reduced quality of life. Differences between the inflammatory profiles of the skin of CSU patients (wheals and nonlesional sites) and healthy controls indicate that key drivers such as mast cells, eosinophils, and basophils interact, release vasoactive mediators, and prime the skin, leaving patients predisposed to symptoms. Many cytokines and chemokines involved in these inflammatory networks and their corresponding intracellular signaling cascades have been identified. These insights informed the development of therapies such as omalizumab, dupilumab, and Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors, marking a renewed focus on pathogenesis in CSU clinical research. Despite progress, current therapies provide symptomatic control but do not appear to redress the inflammatory balance in the skin permanently. A deeper understanding of CSU pathogenesis will permit a more targeted approach to developing novel treatments with curative intent. Here, we review what is known about the pathogenesis of CSU and consider how this can be used to identify rational targets to improve patient care further.

Abstract
Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a potentially life-threatening rare disease, which is mainly caused by the deficiency or dysfunction of C1-esterase inhibitor, and characterized by spontaneous, recurrent episodes of edema in various parts of the body including internal organs and the laryngeal area. Delayed diagnosis and treatment increase the burdens and risks of this condition. The current study aimed to understand the burden of illness for HAE patients in Japan before and after diagnosis through a patient reported outcome survey. A survey instrument was distributed to 121 adult patients with HAE by a patient organization via HAE treating physicians between July and November in 2016. Seventy patients (57.9%) returned the questionnaire. Patients reported high levels of medical resource utilization, including emergency procedures and services. Episodes of receiving laparotomy were somewhat less after diagnosis with HAE than before, but no apparent difference in episodes of tracheotomy between before and after the diagnosis. The economic burden, including direct and indirect medical costs, was highest before diagnosis, but still perceived as substantial after diagnosis. Patients reported disruption of work and school life, with 40% reporting that they miss 10 or more days from work or education per year. Sixty percent of patients reported that HAE affected their daily activities. We concluded that HAE is associated with considerable physical, social, economic and psycho-social burdens even after diagnosis, and that higher attack frequency is associated with a heavy disease burden for patients in Japan.

Abstract
This is the English version of guidance for the use of oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors in the treatment of atopic dermatitis. Several cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-4, IL-13, IL-22, IL-31, thymic stromal lymphopoietin, and interferon-γ, are involved in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis. As oral JAK inhibitors hinder the JAK-signal transducers and activators of transcription signal transduction routes involved in the signal transduction of these cytokines, they may be effective for the treatment of atopic dermatitis. In Japan, as oral JAK inhibitors for atopic dermatitis, a JAK1/2 inhibitor, baricitinib, expanded its authorized indications for atopic dermatitis in 2020. Consequentially, a JAK1 inhibitor, upadacitinib, also expanded its indications to atopic dermatitis in 2021, followed by new approval of another JAK1 inhibitor, abrocitinib, for the use under the Japanese health insurance system. Physicians who intend to use them should sufficiently understand and comply with contents of guidelines prepared by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare to promote optimal use of these drugs. In the treatment with oral JAK inhibitors, it is important to sufficiently consider disease factors, treatment factors and patient backgrounds, and share them with patients to choose treatment options. Points to be considered for drug selection include the efficacy and safety of drugs, age of patients, and dosage and administration of the drug. This guidance was developed for board certified dermatologists, who are specialized in the treatment of atopic dermatitis, and for promoting proper use of oral JAK inhibitors, taking into account a variety of factors in individual patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Schnitzler syndrome is a rare disorder with chronic urticaria, and there is no report summarizing the current status in Japan. METHODS A nationwide survey of major dermatology departments in Japan was conducted in 2019. We further performed a systematic search of PubMed and Ichushi-Web, using the keywords "Schnitzler syndrome" and "Japan" then contacted the corresponding authors or physicians for further information. RESULTS Excluding duplicates, a total of 36 clinically diagnosed cases were identified from 1994 through the spring of 2022, with a male to female ratio of 1:1. The median age of onset was 56.5 years. It took 3.3 years from the first symptom, mostly urticaria, to reach the final diagnosis. The current status of 30 cases was ascertained; two patients developed B-cell lymphoma. SchS treatment was generally effective with high doses of corticosteroids, but symptoms sometimes recurred after tapering. Colchicine was administered in 17 cases and was effective in 8, but showed no effect in the others. Tocilizumab, used in six cases, improved laboratory abnormalities and symptoms, but lost its efficacy after several years. Rituximab, used in five cases, was effective in reducing serum IgM levels or lymphoma mass, but not in inflammatory symptoms. Four cases were treated with IL-1 targeting therapy, either anakinra or canakinumab, and achieved complete remission, except one case with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. CONCLUSIONS Since Schnitzler syndrome is a rare disease, the continuous collection and long-term follow-up of clinical information is essential for its appropriate treatment and further understanding of its pathophysiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) occasionally cause immune-related adverse events (irAEs) in various organs, the prevalence of irAEs and potential risk factors have not been clarified. We identified irAE predictive factors and examined the relationship between the effect of ICIs and irAEs for patients with malignancies. METHODS A total of 533 cases treated with ICIs, including programmed death 1 (PD-1), PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1), and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4), for various malignancies were included retrospectively. We recorded irAEs from medical records and graded them using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5. Prevalence and predictive factors associated with immune-related liver injury and the relationship between irAE and treatment response were analyzed. RESULTS During a median of 10 (1-103) cycles with a median follow-up after several ICI initiations of 384 (21-1715) days, irAEs with all grades and with grade ≥ 3 developed in 144 (27.0%) and 57 (10.7%) cases. Cumulative irAE development rates were 21.9, 33.5, and 43.0% in all grades and 8.8, 14.9, and 20.7% in grade ≥ 3 at 5, 10, and 20 cycles, respectively. Patients who received anti-CTLA4 therapy were more likely to develop irAEs compared to those who received anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 monotherapy. Liver injury was the most common irAE. Multivariate analysis identified the combination of PD-1 and anti-CTL-4 antibodies (hazard ratio [HR], 17.04; P < 0.0001) and baseline eosinophil count ≥130/μL (HR, 3.01 for < 130; P = 0.012) as independent risk factors for the incidence of immune-related liver injury with grade ≥ 2. Patients who developed irAEs had a higher disease control rate (P < 0.0001) and an increased overall survival rate compared to those without irAEs (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION Combination therapy with anti-PD-1 and anti-CTL-4 antibodies resulted in higher a frequency of irAEs. Baseline absolute eosinophil count was found to be a predictive factor for immune-related liver injury. Occurrence of irAEs may be associated with higher efficacy of ICI treatment and longer survival among patients who receive ICI therapy.

Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is attributable to both a genetic predisposition and environmental factors. Among numerous cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of AD, interleukin-33 (IL-33), reportedly escaping exocytotically in response to a scratch, is abundantly expressed in the skin tissues of patients with AD and is postulated to induce inflammatory and autoimmune responses. In this study, we first demonstrated that peptidylprolyl cis/trans isomerase, NIMA-interacting 1 (Pin1), a unique enzyme which isomerizes the proline residues of target proteins, is abundantly expressed in keratinocytes, and that the areas where it is present in the skin tissues of AD patients became expanded due to hyperkeratosis. Thus, we investigated the effects of Pin1 on the regulation of IL-33 expression using the human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT. Interestingly, silencing of the Pin1 gene or treatment with Pin1 inhibitors dramatically reduced IL-33 expressions in HaCaT cells, although Pin1 overexpression did not elevate it. Subsequently, we showed that Pin1 binds to STAT1 and the nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) subunit p65. Silencing the Pin1 gene with small interfering RNAs significantly reduced the phosphorylation of p65, while no marked effects of Pin1 on the STAT1 pathway were detected. Thus, it is likely that Pin1 contributes to increased expression of IL-33 via the NF-κB subunit p65 in HaCaT cells, at least modestly. Nevertheless, further study is necessary to demonstrate the pathogenic roles of Pin1 and IL-33 in AD development.

Abstract
Background Disease burden is particularly high in Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU) patients with angioedema, and patients whose signs and symptoms are inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines need new treatment options. Here we report an exploratory analysis, from the ligelizumab Phase 2b study, investigating angioedema occurrence in patients with CSU and describe the changes in angioedema following treatment with ligelizumab, omalizumab, or placebo. Methods Data from the ligelizumab Phase 2b core (ligelizumab 72 mg, 240 mg, omalizumab 300 mg and placebo) and extension study (ligelizumab 240 mg) were used. Changes in Weekly Angioedema Activity Score (AAS7), the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), and Weekly Urticaria Activity Score (UAS7) among each time point were analyzed for each treatment arm. Results From a total of 297 patients analyzed, 165 (55.6%) reported angioedema occurrence at baseline, with mean AAS7 ranging 30.6—42.2 across treatment arms. At Week 12 of the core study 87.5%, 84.6%, 75.0%, and 61.0% of patients were angioedema free for ligelizumab 72 mg, 240 mg, omalizumab 300 mg, and placebo arms, respectively. In CSU patients with angioedema at baseline, the largest change from baseline in AAS7 score was observed with ligelizumab 72 mg (−31.9) at week 16 in the core study. Patients with angioedema had a higher mean DLQI at baseline (14.9—16.1) vs. patients without angioedema (10.6—12.0). In patients with angioedema, low AAS7 was significantly associated with complete response on UAS7 (UAS7 = 0) and complete normalization of DLQI (DLQI 0—1). Conclusion In the Phase 2b study, ligelizumab effectively reduced angioedema and urticaria symptoms, and improve health related quality of life in patients with moderate-to-severe CSU.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety and efficacy of omalizumab in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) patients has been established, but real-world long-term data remain scarce, especially in Japan. METHODS 52-week, open-label, single-arm, observational study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of first-time omalizumab in Japanese CSU patients responding inadequately to conventional therapies. RESULTS Overall, 235 of 280 patients completed the study. Most patients were aged ≥ 18 and < 65 years; adolescents (≥ 12 and ≤ 18 years) accounted for 9.6% of the total population. The mean ± standard deviation (SD) duration of CSU at baseline was 1.6 ± 3.1 years; 46.1% of patients had had CSU for < 6 months. At baseline, the mean ± SD of Urticaria Control Test (UCT) score, Weekly Urticaria Activity Score (UAS7), and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) were 5.1 ± 3.2, 25.2 ± 11.9, and 8.4 ± 5.9, respectively. The mean ± SD duration of the observation period was 330.3 ± 86.2 days. Relapse was reported in 65 patients, 51, 9, and 5 of whom required retreatment with omalizumab 1, 2, and ≥ 3 times, respectively. The incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) was reported in 11.8%, 1.4%, and 3.9% of patients, respectively. The most common AEs were urticaria (1.8%) and eczema (1.1%). No adolescents experienced ADRs. A cumulative of 92.8% of patients responded in the Physician's Global Impression of Change, with 81.3%, 75.0%, and 95.1% of patients achieving UCT ≥ 12, UAS7 ≤ 6, and DLQI ≤ 5 up to Week 52, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study supports the safety and effectiveness of omalizumab in CSU patients who responded inadequately to conventional therapies in real-world clinical practice in Japan.

Abstract
Urticaria is characterized by the occurrence of wheals and flares in response to vasoactive mediators, such as histamine. Various studies have suggested the involvement of basophils in the pathogenesis of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). However, histamine release from peripheral basophils in response to stimuli acting on the high affinity IgE receptor (FcϵRI) is impaired in many patients with CSU (non/low responders). We previously demonstrated that tissue factor (TF)s expressed on vascular endothelial cells in response to a combination of various stimuli, such as that of histamine and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), activates the extrinsic coagulation pathway and produces anaphylatoxin, complement 5a (C5a), which then activates basophils and mast cells via the C5a receptor (C5aR). We have revealed that histamine release was induced in response to C5a and formyl-l-methionyl-l-leucyl-l-phenylalanine (fMLP), regardless of the response to anti-IgE antibody, the reduced numbers of basophils and severity of urticaria. Moreover, we found that spontaneous release of histamine ex vivo from basophils of patients with CSU is higher than that from healthy individuals. These results suggest that basophils and the complement system, which could be activated by coagulation factors, may play a critical role in the pathogenesis of CSU, especially in cases refractory to treatment involving the IgE/FcϵRI pathway.

Abstract
This is an abridged edition of English version of the Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Atopic Dermatitis 2021. Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a disease characterized by relapsing eczema with pruritus as a primary lesion. In Japan, from the perspective of evidence-based medicine, the current strategies for the treatment of AD consist of three primary measures: (i) use of topical corticosteroids, tacrolimus ointment, and delgocitinib ointment as the main treatment of the inflammation; (ii) topical application of emollients to treat the cutaneous barrier dysfunction; and (iii) avoidance of apparent exacerbating factors, psychological counseling, and advice about daily life. In the present revised guidelines, the description about three new drugs, namely, dupilumab, delgocitinib, and baricitinib, has been added. The guidelines present recommendations to review clinical research articles, evaluate the balance between the advantages and disadvantages of medical activities, and optimize medical activity-related patient outcomes with respect to several important points requiring decision-making in clinical practice.

Abstract
The prevalence of urticaria has been reported mostly in Europe and North America. However, precise information regarding its subtypes and clinical characteristics in primary care practice, especially in Asian countries, are scant. Patients with urticaria and/or angioedema who visited nine primary clinics of accredited dermatologists and allergologists in Japan were recruited from October to November 2020. The information of age, sex, disease duration, urticaria control test (UCT), and concomitant urticaria subtypes were collected. A total of 1061 patients participated. The number of patients was high in the 20 to 50 age groups with a peak in the 40s. The most frequent urticaria subtype was chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) followed by dermographism, acute spontaneous urticaria (ASU), angioedema, and cholinergic urticaria (CholU) (66.8%, 22.7%, 18.9%, 14.1% and 5.7% in all patients with urticaria). CSU development increased with age from the 20s to 50s, especially in females. Dermographism had a peak in the 40s. ASU had bimodal peaks in childhood and in the 30s. CholU was common in males in the 10-20s. Most angioedema patients were female with an increase in their 30s. Angioedema was solely present in 14 of 1061 participants (1.3%), while 136 (12.8%) had angioedema concomitant with urticaria. UCT showed poorly controlled urticaria with lower scores in patients with concomitant CSU and other subtypes than in those with CSU alone. Urticaria tends to develop in young to middle-aged females. The most common urticaria subtype is CSU, while the number of patients with CholU is high and that of angioedema is low in Japan.

Abstract
This is the English version of the Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Atopic Dermatitis 2021. Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a disease characterized by relapsing eczema with pruritus as a primary lesion. In Japan, from the perspective of evidence-based medicine, the current strategies for the treatment of AD consist of three primary measures: (i) use of topical corticosteroids, tacrolimus ointment, and delgocitinib ointment as the main treatment of the inflammation; (ii) topical application of emollients to treat the cutaneous barrier dysfunction; and (iii) avoidance of apparent exacerbating factors, psychological counseling, and advice about daily life. In the present revised guidelines, descriptions of three new drugs, namely, dupilumab, delgocitinib, and baricitinib, have been added. The guidelines present recommendations to review clinical research articles, evaluate the balance between the advantages and disadvantages of medical activities, and optimize medical activity-related patient outcomes with respect to several important points requiring decision-making in clinical practice.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is frequently detected in the skin of patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). AD skin-derived strains of S. aureus (AD strain) are selectively internalized into keratinocytes (HaCaT cells) compared to standard strains. However, the mechanism of AD strain internalization by keratinocytes and effect of the skin environment on internalization remain unclear. HaCaT cells were exposed to heat-killed AD or standard strains of fluorescently labeled S. aureus, with or without interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin (IL)-4, and IL-13 cytokines, for 24 h. Filaggrin and fibronectin expression in HaCaT cells was knocked down using small interfering RNA. The amount of internalized S. aureus was evaluated using a cell imaging system. The effects of INF-γ, IL-4, and S. aureus exposure on mRNA expression in HaCaT cells were analyzed using single-cell RNA sequencing. AD strains adhered to HaCaT cells in approximately 15 min and were increasingly internalized for up to 3 h (2361 ± 467 spots/100 cells, mean ± SD), whereas the standard strain was not (991 ± 71 spots/100 cells). In the presence of IFN-γ, both the number of internalized strains and fibronectin expression significantly decreased compared to in the control, whereas Th2 cytokines had no significant effects. The number of internalized AD strains was significantly higher in filaggrin knockdown and lower in fibronectin knockdown HaCaT cells compared to in the control. RNA sequencing revealed that IFN-γ decreased both fibronectin and filaggrin expression. Keratinocyte internalization of the AD strain may be predominantly mediated by the INF-γ-fibronectin pathway and partially regulated by filaggrin expression.

Abstract
Background Sweat aggravates atopic dermatitis (AD). In patients with AD, type-I hypersensitivity to sweat may be shown by histamine release from patients’ basophils in response to the semi-purified sweat antigen (QR), and the presence of specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) binding to MGL_1304, the component of QR. However, there has been no information on the immunological changes of type-I hypersensitivity to the sweat antigen in patients with well-controlled AD using topical corticosteroids (TCSs) and/or biologics as treatments. Method Histamine-releasing tests using patients’ basophils and QR and the detection of serum IgE against MGL_1304 and mite allergen Der f 1 were performed in patients with AD who were well controlled by topical TCS with/without dupilumab for 53–96 weeks. Results In total, 14 patients were enrolled. Seven patients received TCS therapy alone (TCS group), and seven patients received TCS with dupilumab therapy (dupilumab group). In all participants, the level of specific IgE against MGL_1304 decreased after treatments, but histamine release from basophils in response to QR did not show a statistically significant reduction; rather, it increased. In the dupilumab group, all changes in histamine release induced by QR (increase), the IgE level against MGL_1304 (decrease), and that against Der f 1 (decrease) were statistically significant, whereas the TCS group showed no significant change in any of them. Conclusion The well-controlled condition for 53–96 weeks resulted in no reduction of the hyperreactivity of basophils against in patients with AD, even with the treatment with dupilumab. This study suggests persistent basophil hyperreactivity to sweat antigen over a year or longer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Food anaphylaxis is commonly elicited by unintentional ingestion of foods containing the allergen above the tolerance threshold level of the individual. While labeling the 14 main allergens used as ingredients in food products is mandatory in the EU, there is no legal definition of declaring potential contaminants. Precautionary allergen labeling such as "may contain traces of" is often used. However, this is unsatisfactory for consumers as they get no information if the contamination is below their personal threshold. In discussions with the food industry and technologists, it was suggested to use a voluntary declaration indicating that all declared contaminants are below a threshold of 0.5 mg protein per 100 g of food. This concentration is known to be below the threshold of most patients, and it can be technically guaranteed in most food production. However, it was also important to assess that in case of accidental ingestion of contaminants below this threshold by highly allergic patients, no fatal anaphylactic reaction could occur. Therefore, we performed a systematic review to assess whether a fatal reaction to 5mg of protein or less has been reported, assuming that a maximum portion size of 1kg of a processed food exceeds any meal and thus gives a sufficient safety margin. METHODS MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched until 24 January 2021 for provocation studies and case reports in which one of the 14 major food allergens was reported to elicit fatal or life-threatening anaphylactic reactions and assessed if these occurred below the ingestion of 5mg of protein. A Delphi process was performed to obtain an expert consensus on the results. RESULTS In the 210 studies included, in our search, no reports of fatal anaphylactic reactions reported below 5 mg protein ingested were identified. However, in provocation studies and case reports, severe reactions below 5 mg were reported for the following allergens: eggs, fish, lupin, milk, nuts, peanuts, soy, and sesame seeds. CONCLUSION Based on the literature studied for this review, it can be stated that cross-contamination of the 14 major food allergens below 0.5 mg/100 g is likely not to endanger most food allergic patients when a standard portion of food is consumed. We propose to use the statement "this product contains the named allergens in the list of ingredients, it may contain traces of other contaminations (to be named, e.g. nut) at concentrations less than 0.5 mg per 100 g of this product" for a voluntary declaration on processed food packages. This level of avoidance of cross-contaminations can be achieved technically for most processed foods, and the statement would be a clear and helpful message to the consumers. However, it is clearly acknowledged that a voluntary declaration is only a first step to a legally binding solution. For this, further research on threshold levels is encouraged.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown the efficacy of delgocitinib (DEL) ointment, a topical Janus kinase inhibitor, against atopic dermatitis (AD). However, there is no available information regarding the efficacy of DEL ointment in maintaining remission. Data of patients with AD who received remission maintenance therapy twice weekly with DEL or topical corticosteroid (TCS) on the affected skin of each upper limb were extracted from the medical records. Efficacy was assessed based on changes in pruritus numerical rating scale (NRS) score, stratum corneum hydration (SCH), erythema index (EI). Of 25 patients, four patients (16%) had eczema flare-ups on the TCS side and eight patients (32%) on the DEL side. The extent of change in each parameter between TCS- and DEL-treated areas of the skin did not differ significantly. The mean changes in the NRS and EI showed a slight improvement on the side treated with TCS and were slightly worse on the side treated with DEL. However, the SCH of the DEL group was maintained, while that of the TCS group worsened. TCS is more likely to be effective than DEL in terms of remission maintenance therapy. However, topical DEL is as effective as topical steroid in the maintenance therapy of AD in dry skin patients.

Abstract
Cholinergic urticaria (CholU)-like rash and dermal pain on sweating occur in patients with acquired idiopathic generalized anhidrosis (AIGA). However, it is unclear whether these are symptoms specific to AIGA among the various types of acquired generalized anhidrosis/hypohidrosis (AGAH). Moreover, the pathogenesis underlying CholU-like rash and dermal pain observed with anhidrosis remains to be clarified. A 20-year-old Japanese man with Sjögren's syndrome (SS) presented with anhidrosis. Transient stinging pain on the skin and pinpoint wheals were observed when his body temperature increased. Thermoregulatory sweat testing revealed anhidrotic areas covering 69% of the body surface area with a symmetrical distribution. A high concentration of histamine was detected (506 ng/mL) in the sweat. A skin biopsy specimen from the anhidrotic area showed the inflamed secretory portion of eccrine glands. This suggested inflammation-mediated damage to sweat glands, consistent with AGAH related to SS. Furthermore, immunohistochemical analysis revealed an ectopic distribution of dermcidin, a sweat-specific peptide, in the dermal tissue surrounding the secretory portion of eccrine glands. The expression of claudin-3, a tight junction (TJ) component of sweat glands, decreased or distributed in a mottled manner in the secretory portion. No decreased expression of muscarinic cholinergic receptor M3 was detected. These results suggested that sweat had leaked into the dermis in association with impaired TJ in the secretory portion, along with the damage to inflamed sweat glands related to SS. Collectively, CholU-like rash and dermal pain on sweating were observed in an AGAH patient with SS. The sweat leakage into the dermis may contribute to the development of the rash and pain.

Abstract
The prevalence of atopic dermatitis (AD) has been steadily increasing in recent decades, reaching a steady plateau at the end of the 20th century. However, most of them were surveys of children, and the current prevalence and severity of AD in adults are unknown. A longitudinal survey including 40 649 freshmen attending Hiroshima University between 2002 and 2019 was conducted, with the aim to determine changes in AD prevalence in young adults over the age of 18 years. All data were longitudinally collected at a fixed time of the year. The AD diagnosis and severity assessment were made by dermatologists based on the diagnostic criteria in the Japanese Guidelines for AD. History or comorbidities of asthma and allergic rhinitis/conjunctivitis, current AD management, and use of topical corticosteroids (TCS) were also surveyed using a questionnaire. The prevalence of AD in university freshmen is slightly increasing from 9.1% in 2002 to 12.0% in 2010, remaining steady at around 10-11% until 2019, with poorly controlled AD present in nearly 10%. History or comorbidities of asthma and allergic rhinitis/conjunctivitis slightly increased from 2006 to 2019 in both the students with and without AD. Facial eczema was common among those with severe and most severe AD, whereas approximately 50% of the students with moderate AD and approximately 20% of those with mild AD exhibited facial eczema. The percentage of students treating AD at medical institutions and those self-managing was almost the same. This survey also revealed the presence of substantial anxiety regarding TCS use for AD and the necessity of promoting more effective explanation and education on AD by medical professionals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tingling dermal pain triggered by sweating impairs the lives of patients with cholinergic urticaria and generalized anhidrosis. However, dermal pain evoked by sweating stimuli has been under investigated. METHODS To clarify characteristics of tingling dermal pain on sweating, we retrospectively evaluated clinical and histopathological manifestations in 30 patients having the main problem of dermal pain on sweating, and the efficacy of treatments. RESULTS Dermal pain upon sweating affected mostly young males. It accompanied eruptions upon sweating and/or hypohidrosis in 24 patients, while 6 patients had dermal pain independently of hypohidrosis or eruptions. Dermal pain appeared immediately upon exposure to sweating stimuli, and disappeared within mostly 30 or 10 min. Hypohidrosis was not necessarily generalized but localized or absent. Histological analysis revealed that dermal pain could occur even without morphological changes and inflammation of sweat glands. Hypersensitivity to sweat contents was found only in 26% of patients. Sweat histamine and increase of plasma histamine after thermal induction in patients were significantly higher than those in healthy subjects. Effectiveness of steroid pulse therapy was demonstrated for dermal pain with hypohidrosis. Medications acting on nervous systems and regular sweat-inducing activities for promoting perspiration were also effective. CONCLUSIONS Short-lasting tingling dermal pain appears immediately upon exposure to sweating stimuli, regardless of developing eruptions and/or presence of hypohidrosis, but possibly in association with sweat and plasma histamine.

Abstract
Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) is a rare and disabling disease for which early diagnosis and effective therapy are critical. This revision and update of the global WAO/EAACI guideline on the diagnosis and management of HAE provides up-to-date guidance for the management of HAE. For this update and revision of the guideline, an international panel of experts reviewed the existing evidence, developed 28 recommendations, and established consensus by an online DELPHI process. The goal of these recommendations and guideline is to help physicians and their patients in making rational decisions in the management of HAE with deficient C1-inhibitor (type 1) and HAE with dysfunctional C1-inhibitor (type 2), by providing guidance on common and important clinical issues, such as: 1) How should HAE be diagnosed? 2) When should HAE patients receive prophylactic on top of on-demand treatment and what treatments should be used? 3) What are the goals of treatment? 4) Should HAE management be different for special HAE patient groups such as children or pregnant/breast feeding women? 5) How should HAE patients monitor their disease activity, impact, and control? It is also the intention of this guideline to help establish global standards for the management of HAE and to encourage and facilitate the use of recommended diagnostics and therapies for all patients.

Abstract
This update and revision of the international guideline for urticaria was developed following the methods recommended by Cochrane and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) working group. It is a joint initiative of the Dermatology Section of the European Academy of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (EAACI), the Global Allergy and Asthma European Network (GA²LEN) and its Urticaria and Angioedema Centers of Reference and Excellence (UCAREs and ACAREs), the European Dermatology Forum (EDF; EuroGuiDerm), and the Asia Pacific Association of Allergy, Asthma and Clinical Immunology with the participation of 64 delegates of 50 national and international societies and from 31 countries. The consensus conference was held on 3 December 2020. This guideline was acknowledged and accepted by the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS). Urticaria is a frequent, mast cell-driven disease that presents with wheals, angioedema, or both. The lifetime prevalence for acute urticaria is approximately 20%. Chronic spontaneous or inducible urticaria is disabling, impairs quality of life, and affects performance at work and school. This updated version of the international guideline for urticaria covers the definition and classification of urticaria and outlines expert-guided and evidence-based diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for the different subtypes of urticaria.

Abstract
Cultured epidermal autografts (CEAs) are used to treat extensive burns, giant congenital melanocytic nevi, and epidermolysis bullosa, but information about the long-term clinical course after CEA transplantation is scarce. Here we report 10 years’ progress of a 7-year-old Japanese girl who suffered from a scald burn injury affecting 80% of her total body surface area and was treated with CEA transplantation. The skin of a child with extensive burns treated with CEAs appeared soft and of a good texture, even after 10 years, and recovery of skin pigmentation and scar condition were better at sites with a combination of CEAs and autologous skin grafts than those with CEAs alone.

Abstract
Many anesthetics, including Propofol, have been reported to induce elevation of intracellular calcium, and we were interested to investigate the possible contribution of calcium elevation to the mechanism of the newly approved remimazolam actions. Remimazolam is an intravenous anesthetic first approved in Japan in July 2020, and is thought to exert its anesthetic actions via γ-aminobutyric acid A (GABAA) receptors; however, the precise mechanisms of how remimazolam elevates intracellular calcium levels remains unclear. We examined the remimazolam-induced elevation of intracellular calcium using SHSY-5Y neuroblastoma cells, COS-7 cells, HEK293 cells, HeLa cells, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) loaded with fluorescent dyes for live imaging. We confirmed that high concentrations of remimazolam (greater than 300 μM) elevated intracellular calcium in a dose-dependent manner in these cells tested. This phenomenon was not influenced by elimination of extracellular calcium. The calcium elevation was abolished when intracellular or intraendoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium was depleted by BAPTA-AM or thapsigargin, respectively, suggesting that calcium was mobilized from the ER. Inhibitors of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs)-mediated signals, including U-73122, a phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor and xestospongin C, an inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptors (IP3R) antagonist, significantly suppressed remimazolam-induced calcium elevation, whereas dantrolene, a ryanodine receptor antagonist, did not influence remimazolam-induced calcium elevation. Meanwhile, live imaging of ER during remimazolam stimulation using ER-tracker showed no morphological changes. These results suggest that high doses of remimazolam increased intracellular calcium concentration in a dose-dependent manner in each cell tested, which was predicted to be caused by calcium mobilization from the ER. In addition, our studies using various inhibitors revealed that this calcium elevation might be mediated by the GPCRs-IP3 pathway. However, further studies are required to identify which type of GPCRs is involved.
