UNASSIGNED: Atopic dermatitis (AD), psoriasis, and drug reactions associated with erythroderma are frequently complicated by infections. However, bloodstream infection (BSI) have received less research attention.
UNASSIGNED: This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors associated with BSI in patients with erythroderma.
UNASSIGNED: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 141 erythroderma cases. Eleven cases were identified as having BSI. Clinical records of both BSI and non-BSI groups were reviewed and compared.
UNASSIGNED: BSI was diagnosed in 7.80% (11/141) of erythroderma cases, with a breakdown of 7.14% in AD, 2.00% in psoriasis, and 17.14% in drug reactions. Notably, all positive skin cultures (7/7) showed bacterial isolates concordant with blood cultures. Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed several significant associations with BSI, including temperature (≤36.0 or ≥38.5 °C; odds ratio (OR) = 28.06; p < 0.001), chilling (OR = 22.10; p < 0.001), kidney disease (OR = 14.64; p < 0.001), etiology of drug reactions (OR = 4.18; p = 0.03), albumin (ALB) (OR = 0.86; p < 0.01), C-reaction protein (CRP) (OR = 1.01; p = 0.02), interleukin 6 (IL-6) (OR = 1.02; p = 0.02), and procalcitonin (PCT) (OR = 1.07; p = 0.03). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves demonstrated significant associations with ALB (p < 0.001; the area under curve (AUC) = 0.80), PCT (p = 0.009; AUC = 0.74), and CRP (p = 0.02; AUC = 0.71).
UNASSIGNED: Increased awareness of BSI risk is essential in erythroderma management. Patients with specific risk factors, such as abnormal body temperature (≤36.0 or ≥38.5 °C), chilling sensations, kidney disease, a history of drug reactions, elevated CRP (≥32 mg/L), elevated PCT (≥1.00 ng/ml), and low albumin (≤31.0 g/L), require close monitoring for BSI development.

UNASSIGNED: This report aims to highlight the wide spectrum of ophthalmic adverse events associated with erdafitinib, a fibroblast growth factor inhibitor that blocks activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPK/MEK) cascade. The purpose of this report is to describe a case of erdafitinib-associated bilateral outer retinal alterations in the MEK-associated retinopathy spectrum and rapid onset bilateral total cataracts following a 20-month course of erdafitinib therapy.
UNASSIGNED: A 69 year old male with metastatic bladder cancer presented 47 days following treatment initiation with daily erdafitinib (8-mg) with mild new subretinal fluid and minimal associated subretinal debris in the left eye and accentuation/thickening of the interdigitation zone in the right eye. Over the course of treatment, improvements were noted, particularly with erdafitinib dose reduction. At 20 months, both eyes developed rapidly progressive mature cataracts with significant visual changes, necessitating bilateral cataract extraction.
UNASSIGNED: The potential stability of moderate outer retinal changes (i.e., ellipsoid zone/interdigitation zone, subretinal fluid) while continuing erdafitinib therapy is highlighted in this report. In addition, the importance of continued ophthalmic surveillance is emphasized given the possible association of anterior segment adverse events with long-term erdafitinib use.
