Teledermatology in Rural, Underserved, and Isolated Environments: A Review

“…Another study in Brazil found that TD allowed two-thirds of patients to avoid in-person visits [ 34 ]. Similar values were found in rural Spain, where a TD program saved patients and providers 1496 working hours, 786 travel hours, 8280 dollars, and 51.3 km in distance traveled [ 35 ]. In addition, large-scale, cost-effectiveness analyses have pointed to the extensive societal savings TD can bring to areas with limited dermatologic care [ 36 , 37 ].…”

Secukinumab and infectious adverse effects: A real‐life experience of 63 psoriasis patients

“…IL-17 has important roles in immune surveillance against various microorganisms. 4,10,11 We and others have observed dermatophyte infections, implicating superficial fungal infections to be an underestimated adverse effect of IL-17 antagonists.…”
