  • Publication number: 20230321232
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to methods, treatment regimens, uses, kits and therapies for treating Generalized Pustular Psoriasis (GPP). These methods, treatment regimens, uses, kits and therapies utilize, inter alia, administration of an IL-17 antagonist, e.g., an IL-17 antibody, such as secukinumab. Additionally disclosed are improved methods for treating plaque-type psoriasis that utilize up-titration and down-titration of the IL-17 antagonist, e.g., an IL-17 antibody, such as secukinumab, as well as modification of dose frequency. Further disclosed are methods of treating palmoplantar pustular psoriasis using the disclosed IL-17 antagonists, e.g., IL-17 antibodies, such as secukinumab.

  • Publication number: 20220301346
    Abstract: A learning apparatus includes circuitry. The circuitry receives an input of first label information to be given to a facial expression image indicating a face of a person. The circuitry estimates second label information to be given to the facial expression image based on an interpolated image generated using the facial expression image and line-of-sight information indicating a direction of a line of sight of an annotator, the direction being detected at a time when the input is received. The circuitry calculates a difference between the first label information of which the input is received and the estimated second label information. The circuitry updates a parameter used for processing of estimating the second label information based on the calculated difference.
