Update on contact dermatitis 2007: Medical pearls from the annual meeting of the British Contact Dermatitis Society at the annual meeting of the British Association of Dermatologists.

Abstract:

:Contact dermatitis is an integral part of dermatology. Many patients affected by contact dermatitis suffer significant morbidity and require prompt diagnosis and treatment. Here we give an overview of contact dermatitis related presentations made during the British Contact Dermatitis Society at 87th annual meeting of the British Association of Dermatologists, which took place on 10-13 July 2007 in Birmingham, UK.

  • Analysis of antigens recognized by autoantibodies in herpes gestationis. Usefulness of immunoblotting using a fusion protein representing an extracellular domain of the 180 kD bullous pemphigoid antigen.

    abstract::Herpes gestationis (HG) is a rare pregnancy-associated disease. The aim of this study was to compare various immunohistochemical and immunobiochemical techniques with respect to their diagnostic sensitivity for HG.
