Summary

"The British Journal of Dermatology, April 1905" by Various is a scientific journal from the early 1900s that explores the understanding of skin diseases at the time with a focus on presenting research, clinical insights, and patient case studies related to dermatology. The journal opens with a detailed analysis of a skin condition called "xantho-erythrodermia perstans," written by H. Radcliffe-Crocker. The text shares the clinical features and gradual progression of this peculiar illness, mainly found in grown men, marked by the development of yellowish and pink spots on different parts of the body. The author also looks at possible treatments for the condition, noting the absence of itching or serious health consequences for those affected, along with comparing it to other skin conditions.
