Summary: This study aims to discuss and make recommendations on how to treat the main rosacea phenotypes during the long-term maintenance phase. A consensus was reached by a panel of Brazilian and American dermatologists using the Nominal Group Technique. Comprehensive narrative reviews were conducted, and recommendations were made based on 75% agreement among the specialists.

Summary: This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a 12-week treatment with paroxetine for refractory erythema of rosacea. The results showed that the proportion of participants who achieved treatment success was significantly higher in the paroxetine group compared to the placebo group. Paroxetine also improved other symptoms and was well-tolerated. Paroxetine is an effective alternative treatment for moderate-to-severe erythema of rosacea.

Summary: Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory facial skin disease characterized by various symptoms caused by inflammation and fibrosis. Multifactorial inflammatory mechanisms require an interdisciplinary approach for successful treatment. The role of cosmetologists in rosacea remains unclear.

Summary: This study demonstrates the efficacy and safety of combining botulinum toxin with broadband light treatment for rosacea-related erythema and flushing. Compared to standalone broadband light treatment, the combination therapy significantly increases skin hydration and reduces erythema and flushing-related indicators for a longer duration. The only adverse reaction observed was a slight limitation in mouth corner elevation, which resolved on its own.

Summary: Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by facial redness, papules, pustules, and telangiectasias. Its exact cause is unknown but is considered to be multifactorial, involving environmental and genetic factors. Factors such as UV radiation, heat, diet, host vasculature, genetic susceptibility, and microbial organisms have been implicated in its development.

Summary: This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of dual-frequency ultrasound with impulse mode for improving skin hydration and erythema in Asian subjects with rosacea and acne. The results showed a significant decrease in erythema index and transepidermal water loss, as well as improvements in clinician's erythema assessment and patient satisfaction. Dual-frequency ultrasound with impulse mode appears to be effective and safe for improving skin hydration and erythema in patients with rosacea and acne.

Summary: This study investigates the development of a rosacea-like phenotype in mice induced by prolonged LL-37 administration. The results demonstrate that long-term LL-37 administration can induce irreversible rosacea-like skin lesions, characterized by inflammatory cell aggregation, epidermal and dermal thickening, and collagen deposition.

Summary: Nutritional flushing can enhance reproduction in small ruminants, and using locally available feed resources is crucial for sustainable adoption of improved nutritional strategies by smallholder farmers. The current study investigated the effects of four isonitrogenous rations on local Doyogena ewes in Ethiopia and found that supplementation with enset leaf and concentrate improved ewe performance.

Summary: This retrospective study analyzed 152 cirrhotic patients and found that using carvedilol provided a significant survival benefit compared to VBL. The difference in all-cause and liver-related mortality suggests that the survival benefit of carvedilol may not be entirely liver-related. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of the VISIA system in rosacea assessment. The results showed that the absolute score and percentile of red area were significantly correlated with investigator global assessment (IGA) and clinician erythema assessment (CEA), but not with numerical score, National Rosacea Society (NRS) grading system, and telangiectasis. The red area in erythematotelangiectatic rosacea patients had the highest correlation with IGA and CEA, especially in those aged between 51 and 60. In addition to red area, pigmentation parameters (brown spot) in the VISIA system also showed significant correlation with IGA and CEA.

Summary: Short-wave radiofrequency (SWRF) treatment may serve as an effective adjunctive therapy for mild-to-moderate erythematotelangiectatic rosacea (ETR), showing promising results in improving symptoms and patient satisfaction. This preliminary study evaluated the efficacy of SWRF treatment for ETR and demonstrated positive outcomes in a clinical trial setting.
