F. Abeck, I. Heinen, I. Heidrich, J. Kött, R. Sommer, C. Blome, M. Härter, M. Augustin, S. W Schneider, I. Hansen-Abeck, N. Booken

Limited representation of diverse skin types in dermatology training hinders physicians' ability to diagnose and treat patients with skin of color (SoC), thus contributing to health disparities. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a mandatory seminar in improving medical students' ability to correctly identify skin conditions in SoC, as measured by objective tests.

This study aimed to psychometrically validate the German version of the InToDermQoL.

J. Kullab, C.F.Z. Stuhlmann, S. Ziehfreund, H. Wecker, T. Biedermann & A. Zink

Stigmatization of skin conditions like alopecia areata (AA) and androgenetic alopecia (AGA) impairs quality of life (QoL), but research is limited. The aim of this study was to compare stigmatization and QoL in individuals with AA and AGA in German-speaking (GS) and US samples and identify stigmatization predictors.
