This abstract discusses the prevalence and forms of lichen planopilaris, a type of scarring hair loss, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this case report, a 68-year-old Caucasian woman with Brunsting-Perry pemphigoid experienced scarring alopecia, which was effectively managed using intralesional betamethasone and topical mometasone furoate, suggesting this rare condition may be underdiagnosed in scarring alopecia cases.

This study found that biotinoyl tripeptide-1-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles significantly improved thermal protection in hair, enhancing cuticle integrity and resistance to heat damage, compared to control samples.

KLHL24-mutant stem cells help understand skin and heart disease.

This study found that DPCP immunotherapy effectively treats alopecia areata, identifying factors that influence treatment response and patient satisfaction, which may aid in standardizing the treatment for improved outcomes.

In this case report, narrowband-UVB phototherapy successfully treated a rare instance of Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, a variant of lichen planopilaris, as investigated through non-invasive imaging techniques.

This study found that using human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) carrying the causal mutation of Epidermolysis Bullosa simplex provides a robust model for understanding its molecular mechanisms and testing potential therapeutic targets.

This study found that B cells have dual roles in tumor immunity, with regulatory B cells potentially hindering immune responses against tumors in the melanoma mouse model.

This study observed that overexpression of Bcl-2 in certain transgenic mice accelerates catagen progression and increases hair follicle apoptosis and alopecia, while Bcl-2 deficient mice show delayed hair growth and pigmentation changes.

In this study, novel mutations in the BTD gene were identified in a patient with profound biotinidase deficiency, highlighting the importance of biotinidase activity measurement and mutation analysis for early diagnosis.

This case series describes five patients with rare facial lichen planopilaris, detailing the clinical presentation and treatment of their pigmentary changes and scarring alopecia.

This study aims to compare the safety and effectiveness of bariatric surgery versus medical care on ovulation rates in women with PCOS and obesity, as current observational data suggests surgery may improve fertility prospects, but no randomized trial has yet confirmed this effect.

This study observed that most women with PCOS in the United States use adaptive coping strategies, while those with higher psychological severity may resort to maladaptive coping methods.

This review from the 2013 Keogh Review found that non-surgical cosmetic interventions in the UK are largely unregulated, leaving patients with little protection or recourse.

This report describes two cases where lichen planopilaris may have compromised the hair follicles in both donor and recipient areas following follicular unit transplantation.

This narrative review discusses the promising role of photobiomodulation in dermatology, emphasizing its non-invasive nature and potential benefits, but acknowledges the need for further research to establish standard protocols.

This review explores the potential of non-invasive photobiomodulation therapy for managing combat and traumatic soft tissue injuries, emphasizing its benefits, efficacy, and underlying mechanisms, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that photobiomodulation enhanced hair regeneration in injured dermis of mice, likely through increased migration and exosome secretion of dermal papilla cells via the Akt/GSK-3β/β-catenin pathway.

This study found that the peptide derivative beta-Ala-Pro-Dab-NHbenzyl may reduce wrinkles and sebum production in human skin by inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase 4, suggesting potential for acne and skin inflammation treatment.

This case report describes a 38-year-old male with scarring body hair loss as the sole manifestation of lichen planopilaris, characterized by progressive alopecia and preceding itching.

This study found that vinblastine treatment rapidly increased platelet counts in childhood refractory immune thrombocytopenia, providing effective control of bleeding symptoms, although side effects like neuropathic pain were common and resolved with dose adjustments.

ChatGPT is preferred for creating dermatology patient handouts, but all models can be useful with oversight.

Photobiomodulation effectively stimulates hair growth and reduces hair loss.

This study found that mrp/plf-mRNA expression in murine skin increases in response to different tumor promoters, suggesting its potential as a short-term biomarker for chemical carcinogenesis.

This study researched the dun coat color in Mongolian horses, finding that variations in TBX3 expression in different skin areas are linked to Bider markings, suggesting TBX3's role in this specific pigment pattern, while further investigation is needed on its regulation.

This case report documents a middle-aged female with black piedra on her scalp hair, confirmed through potassium hydroxide examination and fungal culture.

Researchers created a simple tool to predict bladder blockage from prostate enlargement using urine flow rate and prostate volume.

This article reviews the limitations in current research on photobiomodulation for hair regrowth and suggests that optimal wavelengths and dosing have not yet been identified, noting that recommending these devices may be premature.

The study suggests that immune privilege collapse in bulge cells and the involvement of pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon-γ contribute to hair follicle stem cell loss in lichen planopilaris.
