RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Drug-induced subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (DI-SCLE) has been associated with drugs with different mechanisms of action, including anti-hypertensives, tumour necrosis factor-α inhibitors and even some chemotherapy medicines. In the last years, a few reports have been described in patients treated with cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors, palbociclib and abemaciclib. CASE REPORT: Here, we describe a case of DI-SCLE in association with ribociclib and exemestane in a woman diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOME: Topical mometasone was prescribed for two weeks with complete resolution of lesions, also abemaciclib was substituted for ribociclib, and the patient had stable disease with no relapse of DI-SCLE. DISCUSSION: To our knowledge, this is the first report of ribociclib-induced SCLE but based on the DI-SCLE reported cases associated others CDK4/6 inhibitors, the role of this family of drugs in dermatopathology must be further investigated.

Spinal manipulations for chronic non-specific neck pain (CNNP) include cervical, cervicothoracic junction, and thoracic spine (CCT) manipulations as well as upper cervical spine (UCS) manipulations. This study aimed to compare the short-term effects of UCS manipulation versus a combination of CCT spine manipulations on pain intensity, disability, and cervical range of motion (CROM) in CNNP patients. In a private physiotherapy clinic, 186 participants with CNNP were randomly assigned to either the UCS (n = 93) or CCT (n = 93) manipulation groups. Neck pain, disability, and CROM were measured before and one week after the intervention. No significant differences were found between the groups regarding pain intensity and CROM. However, there was a statistically significant difference in neck disability, with the CCT group showing a slightly greater decrease (CCT: 16.9 ± 3.8 vs. UCS: 19.5 ± 6.8; p = 0.01). The findings suggest that a combination of manipulations in the CCT spine results in a slightly more pronounced decrease in self-perceived disability compared to UCS manipulation in patients with CNNP after one week. However, no statistically significant differences were observed between the groups in terms of pain intensity or CROM.
