Mixed occupational and iatrogenic allergic contact dermatitis in a hairdresser

Koblinski, J E, Hamann, D·2020·Occupational Medicine

Abstract

Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a common occupational disease. Hairdressers and beauticians are at increased risk of occupational chronic hand eczema. We present a case of mixed occupational, non-occupational and iatrogenic ACD in a hairdresser which illustrates that delayed diagnosis can result in high morbidity, and unnecessary treatment and cost. A hairdresser with chronic hand and facial eczema failed medical management with topical steroids and dupilumab. Patch testing revealed contact allergy to multiple occupational exposures, home exposures and topical medicaments.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
