“…However, nails of great toes are involved in most reported cases in literature. [1] We herein report a case of POPP involving only the right great toe, and this could be an early marker for development of psoriatic arthritis.…”

Exaggerated anticipatory anxiety is common in social anxiety disorder (SAD). Neuroimaging studies have revealed altered neural activity in response to social stimuli in SAD, but fewer studies have examined neural activity during anticipation of feared social stimuli in SAD. The current study examined the time course and magnitude of activity in threat processing brain regions during speech anticipation in socially anxious individuals and healthy controls (HC). Method Participants (SAD n = 58; HC n = 16) underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during which they completed a 90s control anticipation task and 90s speech anticipation task.

“…It can also embed into the superficial layer of the stratum corneum and induce a creeping eruption mimicking cutaneous larva migrans 2–8 . To our knowledge, the first such hair‐induced creeping eruption was reported by Yaffee 2 in 1957. Twenty cases, which are sporadic, have been reported since then 2–8 .…”

“…A naked hair shaft is commonly seen in association with interdigital pilonidal sinus in barbers 9 . It can also embed into the superficial layer of the stratum corneum and induce a creeping eruption mimicking cutaneous larva migrans 2–8 . To our knowledge, the first such hair‐induced creeping eruption was reported by Yaffee 2 in 1957.…”

“…Occasionally, the hair splinter may present somewhat like a creeping eruption when the hair is moving through the skin and causing a dark line reminiscent of cutaneous lar- va migrans, a true parasitic infection caused by hookworm larvae. This condition has also been called cutaneous pili migrans (CPM), with the original report dating back to 1957 [9]. Since then, 38 cases of CPM have been reported using various terms such as burrowing hair (pili cuniculati), creeping hair, migrating hair, embedded hair, and bristle migrans [6].…”
