Medical management
It is often possible to manage severe malnutrition within a persons home, using ready-to-use therapeutic foods. In people with severe malnutrition complicated by other health problems, treatment in a hospital setting is recommended. In-hospital treatment often involves managing low blood sugar, maintaining adequate body temperature, addressing dehydration, and gradual feeding.Routine antibiotics are usually recommended because malnutrition weakens the immune system, causing a high risk of infection. Additionally, broad spectrum antibiotics are recommended in all severely undernourished children with diarrhea requiring admission to hospital.A severely malnourished child who appears to have dehydration, but has not had diarrhea, should be treated as if they have an infection.Among malnourished people who are hospitalized, nutritional support improves protein intake, calorie intake, and weight. Bangladeshi model
In response to child malnutrition, the Bangladeshi government recommends ten steps for treating severe malnutrition:
Prevent or treat dehydration
Prevent or treat low blood sugar
Prevent or treat low body temperature
Prevent or treat infection;
Correct electrolyte imbalances
Correct micronutrient deficiencies
Start feeding cautiously
Achieve catch-up growth
Provide psychological support
Prepare for discharge and follow-up after recovery

Therapeutic foods
Due in part to limited research on supplementary feeding, there is little evidence that this strategy is beneficial. A 2015 systematic review of 32 studies found that there are limited benefits when children under 5 receive supplementary feeding, especially among younger, poorer, and more undernourished children.However, specially formulated foods do appear to be useful in treating moderate acute malnutrition in the developing world.
In regards to the onset, the von Zumbusch form may "supervene on any previous pattern of psoriasis". It also may or may not recur periodically. Generalized pustular psoriasis of pregnancy (Impetigo herpetiformis)
This form of GPP tends to have symmetrical and grouped features. It usually onsets early in the third trimester of pregnancy, and generally persists until the child is born, but occasionally long after. In 2009, Dr. Debeeka Hazarika, president of the North East States branch of the Indian Association of Dermatologists, Venereologists and Leprologists (IADVL), published an article titled "Generalized pustular psoriasis of pregnancy successfully treated with cyclosporine" in Indian J Dermatol Venereol Leprol. As reported by Hazarika, there have been up to nine instances where the disease was recurrent in subsequent pregnancies. See Case Report 2
In 1979, Frank R. Murphy, MD and Lewis P. Stolman, MD reported on the case of a woman who developed generalized pustular psoriasis in response to doses of progestins, suggesting a link between progestogens and GPP. Most cases of GPP in pregnancy occur late in the third trimester, generally when production of progesterone increases. Infantile and juvenile
GPP is a rare disease in general, but even more so in children. In 2010, an article was published in Pediatric Dermatology by the Department of Dermatology, University of São Paulo. The report acknowledged that psoriasis is a relatively common skin condition in children, but "the pustular variant is rare." Out of 1,262 cases of psoriasis in children, a "0.6% rate of pustular variants" was found.
