About Cutis®
Cutis is a monthly peer-reviewed journal referenced in Index Medicus/MEDLINE that provides concise clinical articles focusing on the practical side of dermatology. An educational resource for 53 years, dermatologists incorporate the diagnosis and treatment information presented in Cutis articles into patient care. Readers also become aware of new products and services through case reports, original research, clinical pearls, quizzes (both clinical dermatology and dermatopathology), physician columns, and review articles. Our quizzes in print are now eligible for 1 Maintenance of Certification (MOC) self-assessment credit from the American Board of Dermatology, which aids readers in fulfilling the requirements that demonstrate their ongoing competency as certified dermatologists. According to a recent survey*, 72% of respondents indicated that content from an indexed publication (Index Medicus/PubMed) is more credible than from a non-indexed publication. The Cutis website (www.mdedge.com/cutis) features an extensive archive of quality clinical content that provides readers with tools for point of care. Image-based quizzes are ranked most valuable by readers, followed by current issue contents*. Other sources of original content online include disease state pages, latest news, and multimedia including procedural videos. Online content for residents to aid dermatologists in-training include monthly resident columns, fast facts for board review with practice questions, the Top 10 Fellow and Resident Grant winning entries from Cosmetic Surgery Forum, and quizzes. Cutis is partners with the Association of Military Dermatologists (AMD), Skin of Color Society, and Cosmetic Surgery Forum through columns focusing on skin diseases in which AMD physicians have extensive expertise to share, and valuable information on the care of the hair, skin, and nails of underserved populations. Resident Highlights from Cosmetic Surgery Forum are published online only. *Cutis Reader Input and Evaluation Study (July 2017)
