This study confirmed significant and dramatic ophthalmic and mucocutaneous sequelae from Stevens-Johnson and Lyell syndromes in Morocco, affecting the social and professional integration of mostly young patients.

This review discusses anti-angiogenic therapy for cancer, highlighting VEGF blockers' effectiveness but also their limitations, such as resistance and adverse effects; it reports no new clinical results.

Sorafenib may cause hair loss in a way similar to alopecia areata.

RAGE is a potential target for melanoma treatment, but its effectiveness is uncertain due to variable expression levels.

This case report discusses a 69-year-old woman with alopecia areata who presented with a growing lesion on her hand, raising diagnostic considerations during her appointment for scalp steroid injections.

This study found that high skin expression of amphiregulin in acute graft-versus-host disease was associated with severe disease grade, poor overall survival, and increased non-relapse mortality.

This study examined dermoscopic features in African-American women with different types of alopecia and found that a perifollicular pink blush, potentially indicating inflammation, was common, particularly resolved with anti-inflammatory treatment, suggesting dermoscopy could aid in management.

This report describes a case where a 44-year-old male treated with vorasidenib for diffuse low-grade gliomas developed unexpected hair growth, including in areas of severe hair loss, after one month, highlighting a previously undocumented side effect.

In this case report, a 34-year-old man experienced temporary hair loss after undergoing an endovascular procedure with fluoroscopy for facial arteriovenous malformation, which resolved within two months following treatment with topical Minoxidil and oral Cilostazol.

This correspondence describes the dermoscopic features of an osteonevus of Nanta but does not report new clinical findings.

In this study, the incidence of androgenic alopecia among transgender patients increased after starting masculinizing hormone therapy, with the highest incidence observed in the fourth year of treatment.

In this study, researchers detailed the sociodemographic, clinicopathological traits, and survival outcomes of untreated, resectable stage I–III melanoma patients in Serbia, focusing on recurrence rates and survival metrics segmented by AJCC sub-stage.

This review summarizes the characteristics of the peri-malignant melanoma stroma, indicating its potential role in early dermal metastatic migration and increased metastasis risk.

This abstract discusses the importance of controlling visible abdominal tumors in women with ovarian cancer to improve survival, and notes that nonvisible microscopic tumors are then targeted with chemotherapy; it reports no new results.

This study reports that in ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma, overexpressed S100A4 likely promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and cancer stem cell properties, affecting tumor behavior through its interaction with NMIIA and mutant p53.

In this open-label trial, 9-cis-retinoic acid showed moderate activity against Kaposi sarcoma in AIDS patients, but its use is limited by substantial side effects at higher doses.

This case report shares that a 25-year-old man with cerebral arteriovenous malformation was successfully treated with stereotactic radiosurgery in Bangladesh, achieving complete obliteration of the AVM without significant clinical symptoms.

An 81-year-old woman's severe male hormone symptoms were caused by an ovarian tumor, which was treated with surgery.

Among postmenopausal women, this case study observed that a rare ovarian tumor called thecoma, found via MRI, was associated with high testosterone levels and symptoms of mild virilization such as hirsutism, indicating surgery as the primary treatment.

This case report involved a premenopausal woman with rapidly progressing virilizing symptoms caused by a rare sertoliform endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary. Following surgical intervention, her symptoms improved, highlighting the importance of recognizing virilizing symptoms as potential indicators of low-grade ovarian malignancies in similar cases.

This case report presents a 60-year-old woman with virilization and elevated adrenal androgens, where a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy confirmed ovarian steroid cell tumor NOS, and her symptoms resolved post-operatively.

This article reviews the cutaneous reactions associated with targeted cancer therapies and highlights the importance of dermatologists recognizing these reactions to provide effective care but reports no clinical results.

In this retrospective study, combining TACE with Donafenib showed promising results as a first-line treatment for Chinese patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, yielding a median progression-free survival of 12.8 months and a one-year overall survival rate of 87.5%, along with a favorable safety profile.

This study found a significant association between male breast cancers and exposure to finasteride and dutasteride, with an estimated additional case per 564 men taking these drugs.

This case report describes a rare instance of alopecia neoplastica, where breast cancer metastasized to the scalp, which can be mistakenly diagnosed as alopecia areata.

This study found that human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells inhibited A549 tumor growth but significantly promoted HT-29 tumor growth in mouse models, highlighting opposing effects depending on the cancer type.

This study reports that while primary treatment for uveal melanoma has a very high success rate, treating distant metastases, particularly in the liver, remains challenging. Tebentafusp, dependent on HLA-A expression, is the first drug to extend patient survival.

In this study, AS101 combined with chemotherapy significantly reduced the severity of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in non-small-cell-lung-cancer patients and may involve immune mechanisms related to IL-1 and PGE2.

This study suggests that 5-alpha reductase inhibitors may reduce invasive cancer features and improve survival in men undergoing radical cystectomy for high-grade urothelial carcinoma, although further research is needed to confirm these findings.

This study explores how Astragaloside A from traditional Chinese medicine may combat lung adenocarcinoma by regulating key signaling molecules like STAT3 and AKT, using techniques such as network pharmacology and molecular docking to understand its mechanisms in cellular models.
