JCMS: Author Interviews & Editor's Choice with Dr Kirk Barber (Listen and earn CME credit)

Kirk is happy to welcome Dr. Ivan Litvinov back to the podcast for what Kirk describes as "a clinically very important discussion as the JAKs are becoming more and more useful to us in a greater variety of conditions." Together they do a fascinating deep dive into the article Dr. Litvinov co-authored in the May/June issue of the Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery. It's titled:

"Efficacy and Safety of JAK-Inhibitors in Treating Refractory Palmoplantar Pustulosis and Palmoplantar Pustular Psoriasis: A Systematic Review."

Dr. Ivan Litvonov is an Associate Professor and Director of the Division of Dermatology for the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at McGill University. And he’s an associate editor at the Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery.

His co-authors on this article are Hibo Rijal, Naïla Bouadi and Erin Dahlke.
