Episode 30 - Understanding The New ISCAID Pyoderma Guidelines

The Skin Flint Podcast

Play Episode Listen Later May 28, 2025 52:02


This podcast is based upon the new 'Antimicrobial use guidelines for canine pyoderma by the International Society for Companion Animal Infectious Diseases (ISCAID)' available HERE   (00:00) John introduces the podcast with his co-hosts Sue Paterson & Producer Paul.   Chapter 1 – Understanding Pyoderma and the Need for New Guidelines   (02:56) Sue welcomes Dr. Anette Loeffler, who introduces herself and her background in veterinary dermatology. Originally from Germany, she studied in Munich and has worked in the UK for over 30 years. She is currently a dermatologist at the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) and has a special interest in Staphylococcus and bacterial skin infections and this has led her to work over the last 4 years on the new pyoderma treatment guidelines, aimed at improving antibiotic use and promoting topical therapy.   (04:30) Sue asks Anette to explain antimicrobial stewardship and why it is important. Anette describes antimicrobial resistance as a major global threat. Overuse of antibiotics leads to resistance, so it is crucial to avoid unnecessary prescriptions and focus on appropriate diagnostics.   (06:10) Sue asks how common pyoderma is in domestic species, particularly dogs and cats. Anette explains that staphylococcal pyoderma is very common in dogs due to their unique skin structure, making them more prone to bacterial overgrowth. While cats and other species can develop bacterial skin infections, it is far less frequent and usually not recurrent.   Chapter 2 – Diagnosing and Classifying Pyoderma   (08:00) John discusses evolving perspectives on pyoderma classification and asks if the traditional categories of superficial and deep pyoderma are still relevant. Anette confirms that the new guidelines still use these classifications as they help determine treatment:   Surface pyoderma (dysbiosis): Often in skin folds where bacteria and yeast overgrow due to friction and moisture. Superficial pyoderma: Involves hair follicles and is the most common type. Deep pyoderma: A more serious infection requiring systemic antibiotics.   (10:19) Sue notes that past treatment approaches lacked strong clinical evidence. Anette explains that many historical treatment protocols were based on anecdotal evidence rather than research. While deep pyoderma has more robust studies, superficial cases often lacked proper research, leading to overuse of antibiotics.   (13:04) John asks how vets can determine whether a case is surface, superficial, or deep pyoderma. Anette explains that clinical examination alone can often differentiate them:   Surface infections show redness and are in friction areas (e.g., nasal folds, hotspots). Superficial pyoderma presents with papules, pustules, and epidermal collarettes. Deep pyoderma causes swelling, draining tracts, haemorrhagic crusting, and pain.   (16:04) Sue asks how to confirm true bacterial pyoderma and rule out mimicking conditions. Anette stresses the importance of cytology, a simple and cost-effective test that can quickly confirm bacterial involvement. Cytology can also differentiate between bacterial infections, yeast overgrowth, and sterile pustular diseases.     Chapter 3 – Treatment Approaches and Key Takeaways from the New Guidelines   (19:36) John asks about traditional treatment approaches and why they need updating. Anette outlines how older guidelines recommended unnecessarily long courses of antibiotics (e.g., 3-4 weeks for superficial pyoderma, 4-6 weeks for deep pyoderma). While this was logical before antimicrobial resistance became a concern, modern research supports shorter, targeted treatments. (26:13) Anette explains the new recommendations:   Surface pyoderma should be treated topically only – systemic antibiotics are inappropriate. Superficial pyoderma should primarily be treated with topical therapy – which has been shown to be as successful as a course of antibiotics. Deep pyoderma requires systemic antibiotics but can benefit from adjunctive topical treatment.   (32:40) Sue asks about helping vets communicate these new approaches to pet owners. Anette explains that the guidelines include tables, visual aids, and quick-reference guides to support busy practitioners.   (33:28) John asks about when systemic antibiotics are still necessary. Anette explains that systemic therapy is still essential for deep pyoderma or when topical treatment alone is impractical (e.g., large dogs, owner limitations). In such cases, culture and susceptibility testing should guide antibiotic choice.   (38:15) Sue asks which antibiotics should be the first choice if empirical treatment is necessary. Anette recommends clindamycin, lincomycin, cephalexin, or co-amoxiclav as first-line choices, with fluoroquinolones reserved for resistant infections.   (42:32) Sue asks Anette for her top five takeaways from the guidelines:   Read the dog, not just the textbook. Diagnose based on clinical lesions and determine if the infection is surface, superficial, or deep.   Use cytology whenever possible. It's quick, inexpensive, and helps confirm bacterial involvement.   Always look for the underlying cause. Pyoderma often recurs due to allergies or hormonal conditions.   Prioritise topical therapy. Topical antimicrobials alone are effective for many skin infections, reducing antibiotic use.   Use systemic antibiotics responsibly. Empirical choices should be limited to first-line drugs, and culture should guide second-line therapy.   (45:45) Sue mentions that the full guidelines will be available online via: WSAVA, ISCAID, and WAVD. Sue also mentioned a  WAVD webinar Anetta hosted, which is a must watch. The guidelines are currently available HERE   (47:29) Outro – As always, Sue & John wrap up before John asks his co-hosts a light-hearted question to end on

Show Notes This month, the Skin Flint team welcome RCVS & European Specialist Debbie Gow to the platform to explore Eosinophilic granuloma complex (EGC). (00:00) John Sue and Paul introduce the podcast.   Chapter 1 – What on Earth Is Eosinophilic Granuloma Complex?   (02:55) Sue welcomes Debbie Gow to the podcast and invites her to introduce herself. Debbie shares that she is a specialist in veterinary dermatology, working at a busy referral hospital outside Edinburgh. She describes her role in setting up the dermatology service, working with a resident and derm nurse, and her continued involvement in CPD and writing.   (04:05) Sue introduces the topic: eosinophilic granuloma complex (EGC) in cats. She jokes that it's sometimes referred to as “eosinophilic granuloma confusion” due to its complexity and terminology. She asks Debbie to break it down explaining that EGC is an umbrella term for three lesion types: Linear granulomas: Seen on the backs of legs, chin, or in the mouth. May or may not be itchy. Plaques: Often pruritic, ulcerated, and secondarily infected. Found on the ventrum or medial thighs. Indolent ulcers: Located on the upper lip, may appear crater-like.   (07:28) Sue asks about miliary dermatitis. Debbie considers it a separate reaction pattern, not part of EGC, though also common and allergy-associated. (08:15) John asks about age, breed, or sex predispositions. Debbie explains that while any cat can be affected, young adult cats (6 months to 5 years) are most likely to develop these lesions. Females may be slightly overrepresented, but evidence is limited. (09:27) John inquires about geographical prevalence. Debbie confirms EGC is seen globally wherever cats are present and exposed to allergy triggers.   Chapter 2 – Lookalikes, Lip Lesions & Licking Cats: Sorting the EGC Puzzle (10:21) Sue asks whether EGC lesions are pathognomonic or if there are important differentials. Debbie stresses the importance of not assuming a diagnosis without investigation whilst they can have a classical appearance: Cytology is key to identifying eosinophils. Differentials include squamous cell carcinoma (particularly for lip ulcers), mycobacteria, fungal infections, and viral diseases.   (12:37) Sue asks about a minimum diagnostic approach. Debbie advises: Cytology Wood's lamp and trichogram to rule out dermatophytosis Consideration of biopsies if in doubt   (14:08) Sue asks how to perform cytology. Debbie describes: Tape prep for dry lesions Cotton bud for moist/crusted areas Direct impression with a slide   (14:59) Sue asks how often infection is present. Debbie says: Infections are uncommon but more likely with plaques due to licking Cytology helps assess if antibiotics are needed Most cases are treated with anti-inflammatories rather than antibiotics   (16:52) John asks about allergic patterns in cats. Debbie describes four main reaction patterns: Miliary dermatitis Head and neck pruritus Ventral overgrooming Eosinophilic lesions She notes cats may display multiple patterns and also non-skin signs like conjunctivitis, otitis, or sneezing. (19:02) John asks if specific allergies present with specific signs. Debbie says it's inconsistent. While flea allergy is often associated with miliary dermatitis and food allergy with head/neck pruritus, patterns vary and aren't reliable for diagnosis.   Chapter 3 – Practical Approaches: From Kitchen Floor to Referral Door   (21:23) John asks what owners might notice or try at home. Debbie recommends: Observing behaviour Keeping a diary Ensuring flea control Considering recent diet or environmental changes   (23:30) Sue asks about food trial myths. Debbie emphasises: Over-the-counter “hypoallergenic” foods are not suitable for true food trials Prescription hydrolysed diets or novel proteins (e.g. ostrich, kangaroo, crocodile) are required Food trials should run for ~8 weeks She also recommends: Treat toppers to help encourage eating Short-term feeding is usually nutritionally safe Veterinary nutritionist input for longer-term plans   (28:43) Sue asks how to start a food trial if a cat is self-traumatising. Debbie uses concurrent systemic treatment (usually steroids) to control inflammation during the trial, tapering meds over 4–6 weeks if possible. (30:05) John asks for the first steps as a guide for primary care vets. Debbie recommends her first steps would be to rule out ectoparasites with full household flea control, possibly whilst beginning topical/systemic treatment as needed for comfort (32:10) Sue asks what to do when left with suspected environmental allergy. Debbie describes: Referral approach: Intradermal testing and immunotherapy if cost allows (40–75% success rate) Primary care approach: Use steroids at the lowest effective dose Importance of prioritising flea control and food trial first as they are often curative   (36:50) Sue and Debbie have a healthy debate on the relative benefits of allergy testing when immunotherapy is not being considered as an option.  (41:08) John wraps up the episode, thanking Debbie for simplifying a complex topic and helping listeners better understand eosinophilic granuloma complex in cats. John asks Paul and Sue another probing - if not questionable - question.

It can be difficult to differentiate pemphigus foliaceus (PF) in certain cases. If there is a lot of infection or inflammation, it can be difficult to tell if the case is autoimmune or allergic. However, there are a few hints between dogs and cats that can give you an indication you are dealing with PF.In dogs, honey colored adherent crusting, facial lesions, nasal planum involvement and crust paw pads can occur with PF. In cats, purulent debris at the claw folds, crusting/erythema around the nipples and crusting/erythema to the pinna can be hints of PF.As always, check cytology and look for neutrophilic inflammation without infection and/or acantholytic keratinocytes (prematurely lifted skin cells).

BUFFALO, NY- January 3, 2024 – A new #research paper was #published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 24, entitled, “Mapping of the gene network that regulates glycan clock of ageing.” Glycans are an essential structural component of immunoglobulin G (IgG) that modulate its structure and function. However, regulatory mechanisms behind this complex posttranslational modification are not well known. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified 29 genomic regions involved in regulation of IgG glycosylation, but only a few were functionally validated. One of the key functional features of IgG glycosylation is the addition of galactose (galactosylation), a trait which was shown to be associated with ageing. In this new study, researchers Azra Frkatović-Hodžić, Anika Mijakovac, Karlo Miškec, Arina Nostaeva, Sodbo Z. Sharapov, Arianna Landini, Toomas Haller, Erik van den Akker, Sapna Sharma, Rafael R. C. Cuadrat, Massimo Mangino, Yong Li, Toma Keser, Najda Rudman, Tamara Štambuk, Maja Pučić-Baković, Irena Trbojević-Akmačić, Ivan Gudelj, Jerko Štambuk, Tea Pribić, Barbara Radovani, Petra Tominac, Krista Fischer, Marian Beekman, Manfred Wuhrer, Christian Gieger, Matthias B.

Chan School of Public Health, Chalmers University of Technology, University of Split School of Medicine, Algebra University College, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and Institute of Cytology and Genetics SB RAS performed GWAS of IgG galactosylation (N=13,705) and identified 16 significantly associated loci, indicating that IgG galactosylation is regulated by a complex network of genes that extends beyond the galactosyltransferase enzyme that adds galactose to IgG glycans. “Here, we conducted a GWAS of IgG galactosylation phenotypes in a study that almost doubles the sample size (N=13,705) compared to previous GWAS of IgG N-glycome [33] and focused on the genes with in silico evidence for involvement in the IgG galactosylation process.” Gene prioritization identified 37 candidate genes. Using a recently developed CRISPR/dCas9 system, the researchers manipulated gene expression of candidate genes in the in vitro IgG expression system. Upregulation of three genes, EEF1A1, MANBA and TNFRSF13B, changed the IgG glycome composition, which confirmed that these three genes are involved in IgG galactosylation in this in vitro expression system. “Further research is needed to fully elucidate [the] functional mechanism behind their role in ageing and to reveal the complete network of gene interactions regulating the complex process of IgG glycosylation.” DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.205106 Corresponding authors - Azra Frkatović-Hodžić - afrkatovic@genos.hr, and Gordan Lauc - glauc@genos.hr Visit our website at https://www.Aging-US.com​​ and connect with us: SoundCloud - https://soundcloud.com/Aging-Us Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/AgingUS/ X - https://twitter.com/AgingJrnl Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/agingjrnl/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@AgingJournal LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/aging/ Pinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/AgingUS/ MEDIA@IMPACTJOURNALS.COM

In this episode, CardioNerds co-founder Amit Goyal joins Dr. Iva Minga, Dr. Kevin Lee, and Dr. Juan Pablo Salazar Adum from the University of Chicago - Northshore in Evanston, IL to discuss a case of primary cardiac diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The ECPR for this episode is provided by Dr. Amit Pursnani (Advanced Cardiac Imaging, Fellowship program director, NorthShore University HealthSystem). Audio editing by CardioNerds Academy Intern, Dr. Akiva Rosenzveig. Case synopsis: A 77-year-old man with no significant medical history presents to the emergency department with progressive shortness of breath for 1 week. He reports an unintentional 15-pound weight loss in the prior month as well as constipation and abdominal/flank pain. On examination he was found to be tachycardic with a regular rhythm and further evaluation with a chest X-ray and chest CT scan demonstrated a large pericardial effusion. This was further investigated with an urgent echocardiogram that revealed a large pericardial effusion with a large mass attached to the pericardial side of the RV free wall, as well as signs of early cardiac tamponade. A pericardiocentesis was performed and 550mL of bloody fluid was withdrawn. The fluid was sent for laboratory analysis and cytology. A cardiac MRI demonstrated a large invasive mass in the pericardium and RV wall consistent with cardiac lymphoma. Cytology confirmed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Subsequent CT and PET scans did not find any other site of malignancy, giving the patient a diagnosis of primary cardiac diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The patient underwent R-CHOP chemotherapy and was followed closely with repeat cardiac MRI and PET scans which demonstrated resolution of the cardiac mass at his one-year surveillance follow-up. This case was published in US Cardiology Review, the official journal of CardioNerds. To learn more, access the case report article here. CardioNerds is collaborating with Radcliffe Cardiology and US Cardiology Review journal (USC) for a ‘call for cases', with the intention to co-publish high impact cardiovascular case reports, subject to double-blind peer review. Case Reports that are accepted in USC journal and published as the version of record (VOR), will also be indexed in Scopus and the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ).

Pearls - A Mystery Mass in the Heart - Cardiac Lymphoma The most common cause of malignant cardiac masses is metastasis. Primary cardiac tumors are rare. Cardiac tumors are separated into 2 categories: benign and malignant. They are often differentiated based on their location and their degree of tissue invasion. Multimodality imaging is essential in the diagnosis, management, and surveillance of cardiac masses. A multidisciplinary team approach is invaluable for management of patients with cardiac tumors. Show Notes - A Mystery Mass in the Heart - Cardiac Lymphoma 1. What is the clinical presentation of cardiac masses? Cardiac masses can have a variable presentation. They can present with arrhythmias, angina, heart failure symptoms, or pericardial effusion. Patients can also be asymptomatic; the masses can be found incidentally on cardiac or chest imagining. 2. What is the differential diagnosis for cardiac masses? Cardiac masses are separated into benign and malignant. The most common malignant cardiac masses are metastases from a distant source. The location of the mass is important in narrowing the differential. 3. What imaging modalities are used to diagnose cardiac masses? Multimodality imaging is needed to describe the mass in detail and guide diagnosis. An echocardiogram is usually the first imaging modality. Cardiac MRI is a great modality that allows for the...
