Abstract
Background and Aim: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, relapsing, pruritic skin disease more common in infancy and childhood. Emollients, topical corticosteroids, and avoidance of irritating factors are the mainstay of its treatment, but fear of side effects has limited the use of topical corticosteroids. The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of topical tacrolimus 0.03% ointment in the treatment of AD.
Methods: In this randomized, double-blind, clinical trial, 76 patients with AD older than 2 years were randomly allocated in two groups and treated with either tacrolimus 0.03% ointment (Abu-Rayhan Co., Iran) or placebo, twice a day for 6 weeks. Responses to treatment were compared every 2 weeks using SCORAD.
Results: Twenty-nine patients in tacrolimus group and 26 in placebo group completed the trial. The reduction in SCORAD after 2 and 4 weeks in tacrolimus group was significantly higher than placebo group (P<0/05). The frequency of treatment-induced pruritus and burning sensation was similar in both groups but erythema was more observed in the placebo group (P<0/05).
Conclusion: Tacrolimus 0.03% ointment is more effective than placebo in the treatment of AD.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Eczema is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease that reduces quality of life of the patient. The present clinical trial with control group aimed to determine therapeutic effects of natural honey plus cold cream compared to cold cream alone on hand eczema.
Methods: Through a blind clinical trial, 72 patients with hand eczema were categorized in two equal groups. The first group used a mixture of honey plus cold cream and the other group applied cold cream alone. Patients used either Treatment 2 times a day for 21 days on their lesions. The effects including relief of symptoms such as dryness, redness, itching and scaling were evaluated by a dermatologist as well as the patients themselves. The results were analyzed using SPSS software and P values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
Results: According to the physician’s evaluation, 26 (36.1 %) patients in group combined honey and coldcream, were cured and 9 (59.12%) patients do not recover while in cold cream alone group, 6 (3.8%) patients were recovered and 30 (7.41%) patients did not. This difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). According to the patients evaluation in group combined honey and coldcream, 26 (36.1%) felt better and 9 cases (59.12%) did not, while the corresponding rates in group cold cream alone were 6 (2.8%) and 30 patients (7.1%) respectively. This finding was statistically significant (P<0.001).
Conclusions: With respect to the therapeutic effects of honey on hand eczema, it is recommended to use honey with other therapies to treat eczema.

Abstract
Urticaria is a common and challenging skin disorder. Its diagnosis and treatment is not limited to the field of dermatology. General physicians, and allergologists and clinical immunologists are also commonly involved in the management of urticaria patients.
One of the missions of the Iranian Society of Dermatology is to develop strategies to provide the best possible management for patients suffering dermatological conditions. To accomplish this mission, the Society assigned a committee to search and critically appraise the recent research evidence and available guidelines to develop a clinical practice guideline concerning diagnosis and treatment of urticaria.
