Abstract
We review controlled trials of corticosteroid effect in experimentally elicited acute nickel contact dermatitis in man, in the hope of clarifying optimal efficacy for clinical use. To maximize discrimination and objectivity, we focus on data with 1 well-characterized allergen, nickel, in studies utilizing bioengineering documentation. Higher potency corticosteroids are effective (unlike in experimental irritant contact dermatitis), but optimum schedules still require definition.Entities:
