#ICYMI Moderate-certainty evidence shows that topical calcineurin inhibitors do not increase cancer risk in patients with #eczema. Our findings support the safe use of tacrolimus and pimecrolimus. @LancetChildAdol thelancet.com/journals/lanch…

Congratulations to @TChanMD on the announcement of this remarkable new position. Your exceptional leadership, profound knowledge, and impeccable savvy are sure to pave the way for remarkable success.
