The Centre of Evidence Based Dermatology, University of Nottingham, U.K. holds an annual Evidence Based Update (EBU) Meeting focused on important dermatological topics, which have in the past included eczema, urticaria, blistering disorders, skin infections, skin cancer and hair disorders. These one-day meetings aim to summarize the most recent evidence in the form of systematic reviews and recently completed clinical trials. This year, the 9th EBU meeting took place in Loughborough, U.K. on 12 May 2011 and was devoted to psoriasis. The latest updates on topical treatments, nail psoriasis, genetics and clinical implications, rational use of biologics, new and unpublished studies on combination of phototherapy and biologics for psoriasis, and on treatments of palmoplantar pustular psoriasis were discussed by a panel of renowned international speakers.
