April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that NKG2D+ Vδ1 T cells may contribute to hair follicle pathology in alopecia areata by recognizing stressed keratinocytes and inducing immune privilege collapse.
December 2025 in “Al-Iraqia Medical College Journal” This study explored the relationships between virus susceptibility to infection and several factors, finding that higher heat tolerance and larger virus size correlated positively with infection susceptibility, while high humidity and higher mutation rates correlated inversely among eight RNA viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 and influenza.
1 citations
,
May 2022 in “European Journal of Dermatology” This study found that while no predictive factors for response to vismodegib were identified, longer treatment duration was associated with a lower risk of relapse in basal cell carcinoma patients.
