This case study details a 44-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus who developed hypereosinophilic asthma and was initially treated as ANCA-negative eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. Her condition, eventually classified as HASM, underscores the need for evaluating EGPA-spectrum disorders in similar scenarios.

This case report from Dr Batra’s® Homeopathy Clinic describes significant improvement in a middle-aged woman's chronic hair loss and scalp visibility through individualized homeopathic treatment, nutritional adjustments, and regular monitoring over a year, as evidenced by patient-reported outcomes and clinical assessments.

The study suggests that abnormal activation of hair follicle stem cells and Wnt10b/β-catenin signaling may contribute to the development of sebaceous neoplasms.

This article outlines the scope and content of the Dermatologic Surgery journal, providing an overview without reporting new research results.

This study found that vismodegib was effective in treating basal cell carcinoma, achieving complete remission in some patients; however, significant side effects often required careful management to prevent therapy suspension, which can lead to resistance.

This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 23-year-old woman with a history of ambiguous genitalia and complex medical conditions, including a pelvic mass and hirsutism, observed from childhood to adulthood.

In this study, idiopathic hirsutism was identified as the most common cause of hirsutism among the participants, with a significant difference in hormone levels between cases of polycystic ovarian syndrome and idiopathic hirsutism.

This article emphasizes the importance of early recognition and multidisciplinary management of mucocutaneous manifestations in chemotherapy to control symptoms and reduce treatment-related morbidity, but presents no new clinical findings.

This study reports that polycystic ovary syndrome was the most common cause of hirsutism among Indian patients, with 70% of cases associated with this condition.

This article provides diagnosis and treatment guidelines for hyperandrogenic disorders in women but reports no new clinical results; it offers a summary of accepted scientific information and suggestions for clinical practice.

This case report describes an unusual occurrence of late-onset nevus comedonicus affecting both eyelids, with complications including bilateral ptosis and ectropion.

Hirsute women with ovarian-sourced hirsutism are more likely to have irregular periods, with higher BMI and altered hormone ratios.

This study found that specific gene upregulations and mutations in hidradenitis suppurativa skin support the role of inflammation, altered epithelial differentiation, and metabolism dysregulation in the disease's pathogenesis.

This case report highlights a rare diagnosis of an androgen-secreting adrenal tumor in a patient with hyperandrogenism and virilization symptoms, emphasizing the role of gynecologists in early detection.

In a human genetic study on hidradenitis suppurativa, researchers identified 12 genetic risk loci and found that CXCR4-CD74 signaling may play a key role in hair follicle inflammation, suggesting CXCR4 blockade as a potential therapeutic approach for this condition.

This case report details two consanguineous patients with cerebral autosomal recessive arteriopathy, both having the same HTRA1 gene mutation, but exhibiting different clinical presentations, including one with epileptic seizures and lobar hemorrhages—previously undocumented in this condition.

In this study of women aged 18-45 from an endocrine referral group, researchers found that while clinical hirsutism severity is independently associated with biochemical hyperandrogenism, the relationship is modest and suggests different biological aspects are at play.

This article reviews the pathophysiology and causes of androgen-mediated hair growth in hirsutism but does not report any clinical outcomes; treatment aspects are discussed separately.

In this case report, a 6-year-old male with biotinidase deficiency experienced marked improvement in dermatological symptoms, including alopecia and periorificial lesions, following biotin treatment.

In this case report, lichen myxedematosus associated with hepatocellular carcinoma showed progressive improvement in skin lesions without further treatment following tumor resection.

This case report describes a post-menopausal woman with severe hirsutism whose high testosterone levels decreased after gonadotropin suppression, indicating residual hormone-producing tissue responsive to gonadotropins.

The document concludes that managing hirsutism involves identifying the cause, using a scoring system for severity, combining cosmetic and medical treatments, encouraging weight loss, and providing psychological support, while noting the need for more research on drug treatments.

This letter discusses potential hair loss effects of Hedgehog inhibitors but presents no new clinical findings, urging further exploration of this possible class effect.

This study found that hidradenitis suppurativa encounters most commonly occur with family or internal medicine providers, with frequent opiate prescriptions and low use of nonantibiotic systemic treatments.

This case report highlights that Sheehan syndrome, though rare in developed countries, can occur and underscores the importance of detailed history taking to uncover the cause of atypical presentations.

This case report describes a rare instance of hyperandrogenism and increased hirsutism associated with endometrial cancer in a postmenopausal woman, with symptoms resolving and androgen levels normalizing after a total laparoscopic abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy.

Hedgehog signaling is crucial for hair development, cadherins affect cell adhesion, neutrophils play a role in skin lesions, and BP230 autoantibodies impact skin stability.
