How does www.spindermatology.org work?
The SPIN website offers you several services:
>> World Directory of Psoriasis Medial Resources
An interactive map listing dermatology centres specialised in the management of psoriasis. For each centre listed in this directory, you can see which medical resources they provide to psoriasis patients: available treatments, dedicated inpatient/outpatient facilities, interdisciplinary consultations, clinical trials, collaboration with patient associations.
For each centre, you can learn how to get an appointment, and you have access to the postal address and contact information.
>> World Directory of Atopic Dermatitis Medial Resources (coming soon!)
>> PIN News
Each member of the network can contribute with articles, events, works, etc., as long as the documents are provided in English. In this section, you will find:
- Our "Focus On" on major works or events of the network or special showcases of our partner medical groups or patient associations; also, you will find the latest news published in our website
- The news from the weboffice provides general information on SPIN activities
- In the events tab you will find a list of national and international events such as conferences, meetings, World Psoriasis Day...
- The news from medical groups showcasing the works shared by the national groups
- The news from patient associations presenting the latest activities of our partner associations
- The recent publications on psoriasis lists the latest Pumed articles on psoriasis and atopic dermatitis
When you wish to share information with the SPIN community, please send it in English to our weboffice. We will then post your news in the news section.
>> Running Projects
In this section you will find all the relevant information about SPIN’s ongoing projects and activities.
>> The Country Sites section
This section fosters the websites of national medical groups and of patient associations. Also, it allows those groups or associations that don’t have a website of their own, to create one for free. To proceed to the creation of your own website, please visit the "Country Sites" section and follow the instructions.
The national websites give you general information about the countries which are part of the network and it aims at:
- Fostering connections in each country between dermatologists and patients,
- Making easier to share information and to engage collaborations between countries.
To design and manage your own website, please use the website management tool.
>> The Website Management Tool
The website management tool is designed for your national medical group or for your patient association. This tool will guide you to build a website in your national language or to create a link with your pre-existent website. To use this section, you need to register. Please go to the website management tool at the bottom right of the homepage.
If you have any question, please, do no hesitate to contact our weboffice.
>> The International Links section
This section provides you links to other international psoriasis and atopic dermatitis organisations.
>> The Keywords section
This section gives you general information about psoriasis. It is a glossary with direct links to Pubmed’s main publications on psoriasis. A similar glossary for atopic dermatitis is to be developed soon.

Association of plasma and urine metals levels with kidney function: A population-based cross-sectional study in China.
Chemosphere.
2019 Jul , 226:321-328.
Although environmental exposure to multiple metals is common, epidemiological studies on the associations of exposure to 23 metals with kidney function have not been analyzed. We aimed to investigate the associations of 23 metals levels with renal function.

Models of human psoriasis: Zebrafish the newly appointed player.

Models of human psoriasis: Zebrafish the newly appointed player.
Dev. Comp. Immunol..
2019 Aug , 97:76-87.
Psoriasis is a human chronic, immune disease with severe cutaneous and systemic manifestations. Its prevalence, among the world population, highly varies with ethnicity and geography, but not sex from remarkable low levels in Asia to 2.3% in Spain, or an impressive 11.5% in Norway. The pathogenesis of psoriasis derives from complex genetic and environmental interactions, which creates aberrant crosstalk between keratinocytes and variated immune cell, resulting in open amplified inflammatory (...)

What's new in atopic eczema? An analysis of systematic reviews published in 2016. Part 3: nomenclature and outcome assessment.
Clin. Exp. Dermatol..
2019 Jun , 44, (4):376-380.
This review forms part of a series of annual updates that summarize the evidence base for atopic eczema (AE). It presents the key findings from 11 systematic reviews published in 2016 that focus on AE outcome assessment, disease impact and nomenclature. Systematic reviews on the treatment and prevention of AE are summarized in Part 1 of this update, and systematic reviews on the epidemiology of and risk factors for AE are summarized in Part 2. Six reviews summarized what outcome measurement (...)

Discovery of a class of highly potent Janus Kinase 1/2 (JAK1/2) inhibitors demonstrating effective cell-based blockade of IL-13 signaling.
Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett..
2019 Jun 15, 29, (12):1522-1531.
Disruption of interleukin-13 (IL-13) signaling with large molecule antibody therapies has shown promise in diseases of allergic inflammation. Given that IL-13 recruits several members of the Janus Kinase family (JAK1, JAK2, and TYK2) to its receptor complex, JAK inhibition may offer an alternate small molecule approach to disrupting IL-13 signaling. Herein we demonstrate that JAK1 is likely the isoform most important to IL-13 signaling. Structure-based design was then used to improve the (...)

Effect of cinnamamides on atopic dermatitis through regulation of IL-4 in CD4 cells.
Choi EJ et al.
Effect of cinnamamides on atopic dermatitis through regulation of IL-4 in CD4 cells.
J Enzyme Inhib Med Chem.
2019 Dec , 34, (1):613-619.
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cinnamamides on atopic dermatitis (AD) and the mechanisms underlying these effects. To this end, the actions of two cinnamamides, (E)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-N-phenylethyl acrylamide (NCT) and N-trans-coumaroyltyramine (NCPA), were determined on AD by orally administering them to mice. Oral administration of the cinnamamides ameliorated the increase in epidermal and dermal thickness as well as mast cell infiltration. Cinnamamides suppressed serum (...)
