This review discusses the effects of photobiomodulation, particularly its potential to reduce inflammation in various conditions, but it does not report new clinical findings.

This study found that late-onset alopecia areata is more common in women and tends to present with milder symptoms, with some patients achieving complete hair regrowth in mild cases.

This case report describes a 40-year-old man whose vitiligo and psoriasis responded favorably to ixekizumab after experiencing vitiligo onset and psoriasis relapse during adalimumab treatment.

This study found that the prevalence of autoimmune thyroiditis was significantly higher in Italian patients with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to controls, suggesting that these patients should be screened for the condition.

This case report describes a patient with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 3 who experienced total hair regrowth following the successful control of diabetes with insulin therapy.

In this study, researchers examined thyroid function and autoantibody levels in patients with alopecia areata and vitiligo, finding similar rates of thyroid dysfunction and autoantibody presence in both groups, with no significant differences based on ethnicity or gender.

This report presents a case of a child with hypothyroidism and poorly controlled type 1 diabetes developing both Mauriac syndrome and Van Wyk–Grumbach syndrome, two rare complications.
