Abstract Psoriasis is a chronic, systemic disease that requires long‐term management. Biologic agents have been used widely against psoriasis, such as infliximab. We analyzed the survival and discontinuation rates of infliximab when treating psoriasis under real‐world conditions in China. Patients with moderate‐to‐severe psoriasis treated with infliximab in Shanghai Skin Disease Hospital from January 2015 to April 2020 were included in our retrospective study. Information from their medical records...

Given the widespread use of topical Minoxidil, it is likely that this etiology of childhood hypertrichosis...

Many papers were published contemporarily on this topic, reporting limited case series. We reviewed the English literature up to the 1st July 2020 and, excluding single...
