“…The most common co‐morbidity of PLE includes respiratory allergies, such as asthma and allergic rhino‐conjunctivitis, as well as atopic dermatitis (19.8%) 7 . Other photodermatoses such as solar urticaria can be also associated with PLE 44 . In should be noted that many patients with PLE develop contact or photocontact allergic dermatitis, mainly to sunscreens and skin care products 45 …”

Polymorphic light eruption (PLE) is the most common immunologically mediated photodermatosis, demonstrating many abnormalities caused by critical failure of ultraviolet (UV)-induced immunosuppression. The unique expression of antimicrobial peptides in PLE, which is most likely determined by alteration of microbiome components upon UV exposure, implicates their possible triggering role and pathogenic significance in the eruption. The review aims to clarify current knowledge

“…Because the symptoms are associated with porphyrin accumulation, antiviral therapy may improve not only HCV, but also PCT. 3 DAA were recently reported to induce rapid remission of HCV-related PCT, [3][4][5] together with reduction of urinary uroporphyrin levels. 4 Because RBV may aggravate PCT by contributing to iron overload in the liver, 5 it is likely that SOF, a DAA, was responsible for the remission of PCT in our case.…”

“…100-102 Broad-spectrum sunscreen with pigments to protect against VL is especially important for solar urticaria as VL alone or in combination with UVR is the action spectrum. 103 Polymorphous light eruption is generally due to UVA alone, but UVB and less commonly VL may also responsible; while the most severe reactions of chronic actinic dermatitis are associated with UVB exposure and less often UVA or VL. Finally, sunscreen must be applied liberally and often to be effective.…”

BackgroundIn this article, we review and discuss the photoprotection behavior of Asians based on the literature, along with a subanalysis of an original online survey, and make recommendations to optimize photoprotection for Asian populations to prevent photoaging and pigmentary disorders.MethodsAn international panel of eight dermatologists from Asia (China, Korea, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia, and Vietnam) met to discuss sunscreen photoprotection for Asian patients. Additionally, a subanalysis of an online survey by 3000 respondents from three Asian countries (China, Indonesia, and Japan) investigated general public awareness and attitudes to sun exposure.ResultsA pre‐meeting survey of the eight experts from Asia showed key concerns of Asian patients consulting dermatologists are pigmentary disorders, especially actinic/senile lentigo, post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation, melasma, vitiligo, and Hori's nevus. The survey subanalysis of participants from China, Indonesia, and Japan with predominantly Fitzpatrick skin types (FST) II to IV revealed that they are particularly concerned about sun exposure causing photoaging and pigmentary disorders. Most of the respondents indicated they have limited knowledge on sunlight radiation and appropriate sunscreen protection factors. Only 22%, 13%, and 3% for China, Indonesia, and Japan, respectively, systematically use multiple protective measures (using sunscreen, avoiding midday sun, staying in the shade, wearing a hat, protective clothing, and sunglasses) when exposed to the sun.ConclusionsFurther education is needed for Asian populations on the importance of comprehensive daily photoprotection, including broad‐spectrum sunscreen, with high UVA and visible light protection, to reduce and prevent photoaging and pigmentary disorders.
