Consensus on core domains for hand eczema trials: Signs, symptoms, control and quality of life Open
Background Hand eczema (HE) is a common and complex skin disease. A uniform set of core outcomes and related measures for use in clinical trials is lacking, making it difficult to compare results across HE studies. Objective To reach conse…

Severely compromised supply of patch test allergens in Europe hampers adequate diagnosis of occupational and non‐occupational contact allergy. A European Society of Contact Dermatitis (<span>ESCD</span>), European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (<span>EAACI</span>), European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (<span>EADV</span>) task forces ‘Contact Dermatitis’ and ‘Occupational Skin Disease’ position paper Open
Patch testing is the only clinically applicable diagnostic method for Type IV allergy. The availability of Type IV patch test (PT) allergens in Europe, however, is currently scarce. This severely compromises adequate diagnostics of contact…

Patch testing with aluminium Finn Chambers could give false‐positive reactions in patients with contact allergy to aluminium Open
Background Earlier laboratory studies have shown that sodium tetrachloropalladate, Myroxylon pereirae, caine mix II, and palladium chloride trigger the release of aluminium (Al) from Finn Chambers (FC). Objectives To investigate whether al…

Quantification of aluminium release from Finn chambers under different in vitro test conditions of relevance for patch testing Open
Background Contact allergy to aluminium (Al) might pose a risk of false‐positive readings of patch‐test results when testing with Finn chambers. Objectives To quantify the release of Al from empty Al Finn chambers, covered Finn Aqua chambe…

Patch Testing with a New Composition of Mercapto Mix: A Multicentre Study by the Swedish Contact Dermatitis Research Group Open
This study investigated whether more patients with contact allergies were detected by patch testing with mercapto mix with a higher concentration of 2-mercaptobenzothiazolinone (MBT) than the commonly used mercapto mix. A total of 3,143 de…

Chromium(III) release from chromium‐tanned leather elicits allergic contact dermatitis: a use test study Open
Summary Background Chromium (Cr) is a common skin sensitizer. The use of Cr(VI) in leather is restricted in the EU, but that of Cr(III) is not. Objectives To assess whether prolonged exposure to Cr‐tanned leather with mainly Cr(III) releas…
