This report presents a case of a 57-year-old woman with APS-4, generalized alopecia, and rheumatoid arthritis, emphasizing the need to screen for other autoimmune disorders in patients with a single organ-specific autoimmune disease.

This study found that improved outcomes in scalp surgery were achieved by utilizing knowledge of the surgical anatomy of the scalp to avoid complications like unsightly scars and distorted hair patterns.

The man's hair loss and skin papules were diagnosed as atrichia with papular lesions, not alopecia areata universalis.

Older men's scalp damage increases with age and sun exposure, a baby girl in the Philippines has Schimmelpenning syndrome, and thyroid screening is advised for children with hair loss and certain risk factors.

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.

In this report, a case of a large primary extradural solitary fibrous tumor in the sacrum of a 31-year-old woman is detailed, where surgical treatment led to remission and improved functionality, despite the patient opting out of adjuvant radiotherapy to preserve fertility potential.

In this study, researchers propose that different vertebrate skin appendages, such as hair, feathers, and scales, evolved in parallel from a shared ancestral cell structure associated with teeth, dating back approximately 420 million years ago.

In this study, symmetrical acrokeratoderma was observed to frequently occur alongside ichthyosis vulgaris, with no specific therapy available for the condition.

This case report describes a 10-month-old boy with VACTERL association and athymia who developed Omenn syndrome, highlighting the complex overlap of these conditions and the challenging clinical course due to profound T-cell immunodeficiency.

A JAK1 variant causes hair loss, skin issues, and thyroid disease, but treatment with a specific inhibitor can help.

This study review reports that alopecia areata is often associated with autoimmune thyroid diseases like Hashimoto thyroiditis, suggesting targeted thyroid screening based on symptoms and risk factors may improve detection while minimizing unnecessary tests.

This study explores autoimmune associations in pediatric patients with alopecia areata at a tertiary care center but reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that exosomes derived from adipose-derived stem cells significantly enhanced bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell migration and osteogenesis, leading to improved bone regeneration in a rat model of calvarial defects.

This study examined the relationship between thyroid autoimmunity and alopecia areata in patients aged 2-65 and found no statistically significant association, despite a notable correlation between anti-TPO levels and disease duration.

In this case report, researchers described how autoimmune thyroid disease can obscure primary hyperparathyroidism diagnosis, emphasizing the necessity of combining imaging, cytology, biochemical assessment, and parathyroid scintigraphy for accurate diagnosis.

This study found that adipocytes in the interfacial white adipose tissue adjacent to fibrotic lesions in systemic sclerosis show unique phenotypes and contribute to the condition's pathogenesis.

In this study, 56% of patients with hypothyroidism had dry, coarse skin, while weight gain and lethargy were also common complaints.

This study concluded that pseudopelade is an autosomal dominant condition, distinct from other forms of alopecia, characterized by atrophic hair follicle loss and notable familial association.
