BACKGROUND: The erythemal response of the skin to UVB radiation is used as a diagnostic phototest and guideline to phototherapy. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to compare the UVB-induced MEDs to the back, arm, and thigh skin METHODS: A sunlight fluorescenct lamp(Waldmann UV 7001K) was used as a UVB radiation source. The back, arm, and thigh skin were irradiated with the dose, from 40mJ/cm2 to 180mJ/cm2. The minimal doses for erythema responses to the skin were assessed visually at 24 hours after irradiation. RESULTS: MEDs of the back, arm and thigh skin were 92.6 +/- 17.3mJ/cm2(mean +/- S.D.), 123.0 +/- 24.2mJ/cm2, and 126.6+/- 28.3mJ/cm2, respectively. The most frequent MED was 100mJ/cm2 for the back skin and 120mJ/cm' for the arm skin and thigh skin. CONCLUSION: In this study, UVB-induced MEDs to the back, arm, and thigh skin in young adult Koreans were assessed. A significant difference in the MED was found between the back and extremities skin, with a lower value for the back skin(92.6 +/- 17.3mJ/cm2) than for the arm skin(123.0 +/- 24.2mJ/cm2) or for the thigh skin(126.6 +/- 28.3mJ/cm2).

The cutaneous mucinose are a group of connective disorders characterized by the deposition of mucin in the dermis. Thc disease may be a primary (metabolic) or secondary (catabolic). Secondary mucinosis is common in lupus erythematosus and dermatomyositis but rare in morphea. We report a case of guttate morphea with secondary cutaneous mucinosis.
