International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Current remission criteria for pemphigus vulgaris rely on binary, lesion‐based endpoints that do not capture immunological status, treatment toxicity, or patient quality of life. We argue for a multidimensional framework incorporating minimal disease activity, validated severity scores, glucocorticoid toxicity indices, and patient‐reported ...

IgA/IgG Pemphigus: A New Atypical Subset of Pemphigus?
Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 2006 The classical types of pemphigus are well characterized clinically, histologically and immunologically. The tar-get antigens were found to be desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) for pemphigus foliaceus and Dsg3 for pemphigus vulgaris (1). However, there are atypical cases which could not be classified into either of these types. At present two major atypical forms are
