A review of UVB-mediated photosensitivity disorders
Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences, 2012 Photosensitivity to UVB is a prominent feature of a small number of congenital skin disorders. In addition UVB may also contribute to the action spectrum of a number of acquired photosensitivity syndromes. The gene mutations underlying the genetically inherited disorders have largely been identified and have provided insights into DNA repair pathways ...

Disorders with Photosensitivity
, 1979 In 1954 Bloom [1] described this very rare syndrome with “three cardinal features” [2] : congenital facial telangiectatic erythema, sensitivity to sunlight, and stunted growth.

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2002 Over the past 15 years Punta Arenas, Chile, a medium-sized city located on the extreme southern tip of South America, has repeatedly been exposed to acute, sudden episodes of highly increased levels of ultraviolet B (UVB) 280-320 nm radiation because of the passage of the spring Antarctic "Ozone Hole" overhead, or nearby.Our purpose was to observe the ...

Investigation of photosensitive disorders
Photodermatology, Photoimmunology & Photomedicine, 2004 Investigation of photodermatosis is based primarily on the history and clinical findings, histological, immunological and biochemical findings are variably helpful depending on the clinical picture. Formal testing for photosensitivity may be the only definitive test proving photosensitivity on occasion.This article delineates the important features ...

A Case of Comorbidity between Panic Disorder and Photosensitive Epilepsy
Psychopathology, 2000 Panic disorder and epilepsy usually are distinct entities which require different and specific therapeutic stategies. While anticonvulsant medication is the treatment of choice for seizure disorders, behavioral methods have proven to be effective in panic disorder. We here report a case of comorbidity between panic disorder and photosensitive epilepsy.

Recent Developments in the Diagnosis and Management of Photosensitive Disorders
American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2018 Photodermatoses occur in males and females of all races and ages. Onset can be variable in timing and influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Photodermatoses are broadly classified as immunologically mediated, chemical- and drug-induced, photoaggravated, and genetic (defective DNA repair or chromosomal instability) diseases.

British Journal of Dermatology, 1996 Recently, we established a new category of photosensitive disorder termed UVs syndrome. Cells from patients with UVs syndrome have a similar UV sensitivity as xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) cells, but have a normal level of unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) unlike XP.

[Photosensitive disorders--focusing on photosensitive genetic diseases].
Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2010 Among various photosensitive disorders, photosensitive genetic diseases are noticeable in that physicians play a key role in early diagnosis. Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) and erythropoetic protoporphyria (EPP) are focused on this issue as photosensitive genetic diseases.
