This paper reviews current cell therapies in medicine, highlighting hematopoietic stem cell transplants as a foundational success and the growing application of genetically modified cells like CAR-T and mesenchymal stem cells for various diseases, including blood disorders and autoimmune conditions.

In this study conducted at the Pediatric Hematology-Oncology Ward, 65% of hospitalized pediatric cancer patients developed dermatological lesions, predominantly alopecia and mucositis, possibly due to the administration of plant alkaloid chemotherapy, consistent with existing literature.

This review discusses the potential impact of volatile organic compound exposure on the onset and progression of autoimmune diseases and reports no new experimental findings.

This case report describes a 49-year-old woman with Sweet syndrome who experienced complete resolution of skin lesions after a prednisone treatment regimen.

In this study, activation of oncogenic K-ras in a mouse model caused the oral mucosa to rapidly progress from squamous hyperplasia to carcinoma within 14 days, demonstrating its acute sensitivity.

This case report details a patient who developed multiple skin cancers within one year of receiving an allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplant for chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.

Some new drugs show potential for treating blood cancers but have serious side effects and need more research.

This report details a case of extensive leukotrichia induced by dasatinib in a patient with refractory chronic myelogenous leukemia.

This study found that US adolescents with alopecia areata, especially those with alopecia totalis or universalis, experience significantly higher healthcare costs and resource use compared to matched controls.

People with allergies or high eosinophil levels have a higher chance of severe hair loss from alopecia areata, and sudden hair loss can indicate chronic graft-versus-host disease.

In this case report, a 57-year-old man with chronic myelogenous leukemia developed a large, rapidly growing giant keratoacanthoma, highlighting the diagnostic challenges it poses compared to cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, with surgical excision identified as the preferred treatment.

In this study, researchers examined a patient with ZMYM2::FGFR1 fusion-positive leukemia, finding that Pemigatinib showed efficacy, while Ponatinib resistance was linked to a specific FGFR1 mutation. Other FGFR inhibitors demonstrated high effectiveness in ex vivo assays.

This study describes a newly recognized skin reaction associated with dasatinib, nilotinib, and ponatinib, marked by a lichenoid exanthem with severe pruritus that may necessitate discontinuation of therapy.

This review suggests that bendamustine, alone or in combination, shows effectiveness in treating indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, with recent studies highlighting its benefits especially in combination therapies, while balancing efficacy with a favorable toxicity profile.

Hair extensions can cause hair loss and scalp damage, and these problems might be more common than people realize.

This review discusses the dermatological and systemic adverse effects of hair dye use, particularly focusing on the common allergen para-phenylenediamine, and reports no new clinical data.

This article reviews trichoscopic signs of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, including exclamation marks, but reports no new clinical results.

Chemotherapy with docetaxel and cisplatin can cause severe low potassium, requiring careful monitoring and treatment.

This review discusses the various common, rare, and unusual skin manifestations of lupus erythematosus and highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis, but it reports no new clinical results.

Graft-versus-host disease is a complication where donor immune cells attack the recipient's body, often affecting the skin, liver, and gastrointestinal tract.

In this study, permanent alopecia after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation was found in 16% of patients and was significantly associated with conditioning regimens involving busulphan.

This conference proceeding abstract provides no new research results, focusing only on event details from the British Association of Dermatology's Forty-Sixth Annual Meeting held in Oxford in 1966.

This review discusses the oral manifestations associated with hematologic conditions and nutritional deficiencies, without presenting new research results; it emphasizes the impact of blood disorders and vitamin deficiencies on oral health.

Stem cells compete for space using cell adhesion, and mutations can affect their competitive success, with implications for tissue health and disease.

This study identified "HTLV-1-associated lichenoid dermatitis" as a skin condition in HTLV-1-infected individuals, characterized by reactive eruptions associated with increased immunity toward infected CD4+ T cells.

This case report highlights a rare presentation of acute lupus hemophagocytic syndrome with initially negative antinuclear antibodies, underscoring the higher sensitivity of the 2012 Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics criteria for diagnosis.

Innovative methods are reducing animal testing and improving biomedical research.

This study found that many conditions in patients with COVID-19 were significantly increased compared to controls, with specific phenotypes identified across different demographic and diagnostic attributes.
