This case report describes a young man with bilateral morphea en coup de sabre, which recurred after being quiescent, highlighting its association with previous head trauma and alopecia.

This case report describes a 35-year-old woman with diffuse partial woolly hair occurring alongside epidermolysis bullosa with mottled pigmentation.

This study found that intradermal bleomycin injections induced dermal fibrosis in C57BL/6 mice, evidenced by hair follicle obliteration and dermal thickening, though no significant trends in gene expression were observed, indicating the need for further research to understand the link between fibrosis and dyschromia.

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 case study highlights that RDEB-mitis can be misdiagnosed in older adults, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis as it does not require immunosuppressive treatment.

This study reported a rare case of a young woman with complete heart block as the initial sign of systemic lupus erythematosus despite being negative for anti-SSA antibodies, highlighting the diagnostic utility of anti-PM-Scl 100 antibodies and nailfold capillaroscopy.

This case report describes a 75-year-old woman with pustular psoriasis who developed Beau's lines on her nails, coinciding with episodes of telogen effluvium.

Low level laser therapy may help with hair loss.

In this case report, researchers described a 48-year-old man with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed a fungus ball (aspergilloma) within a tuberculosis cavity, a complication rarely reported in such patients, emphasizing the role of CT scans in diagnosis and the potential need for surgical intervention.

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

In this study, researchers observed that knocking down the LPA 4 receptor in zebrafish embryos led to vascular and lymph vessel development abnormalities, including edema and decreased heartbeats.

This study identified the location of the genetic locus for the slick hair coat trait in cattle on bovine chromosome 20, which may contribute to heat tolerance.

In this study, basal cell carcinoma developed in Ptch-deficient mice only after chemical treatment, not skin wounding, suggesting a second unknown event is necessary for tumor formation.

Woman has discoid lupus, frontal fibrosing, and androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers identified specific gene polymorphisms in Subo Merino sheep that significantly affect wool traits, suggesting these genetic markers could aid in breeding high-quality fine-wool sheep.

This case report describes areata-like lupus in a 63-year-old woman, characterized by nonscarring patchy alopecia similar to alopecia areata, without meeting systemic lupus erythematosus criteria.

This report from the National Registry of Drug-Induced Ocular Side Effects identifies 56 cases of alopecia associated with the use of topical ophthalmic β-blockers.

This review discusses the stratification and management of male patients with lower urinary tract symptoms and benign prostatic hyperplasia in primary care and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the new SLICC classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus were more sensitive and resulted in fewer misclassifications than the current ACR criteria, although they had lower specificity.

This review discusses the efficacy of the lipidosterolic extract of Serenoa repens for treating lower urinary tract symptoms and reports no new clinical results; the authors propose further examination of the existing literature and guidelines.

This case report describes a Balinese breed dog diagnosed with demodecosis and malasseziosis, which improved after 30 days of treatment including amitraz, ketoconazole, and supportive therapies. The findings suggest that consistent treatment and environmental management can aid in recovery from these skin conditions in dogs.

This report presents a rare case of discoid lupus erythematosus in a Saudi woman, highlighting the need for dermatologists to recognize atypical presentations to prevent misdiagnosis and treatment delays.

In this randomized trial, lupus patients taking daily 200 μg selenium supplements for eight weeks showed significant improvements in metabolic markers like CRP, ESR, MDA, and GPX, as well as reduced clinical symptoms such as arthritis and alopecia, compared to those receiving a placebo.

This study found that at Week 52, baricitinib resulted in significant hair regrowth for many patients with severe alopecia areata, with 41.6% on the higher dose achieving substantial improvement in scalp hair loss, though some may need longer treatment for optimal benefit.

This article discusses the implementation of problem-based learning in a ninth-grade biology class in Singapore, highlighting the use of authentic, student-driven inquiries to explore topics like nutrition and health without reporting new empirical results.

This report describes a rare case of severe combined immunodeficiency caused by a FOXN1 gene variant, complicated by Epstein-Barr virus infection and high-grade B-cell lymphoma, leading to the infant's death despite treatment efforts.

This paper argues that for lupus management, selective immunotherapies like anifrolumab and belimumab, which specifically target parts of the immune system, offer more effective treatment options compared to older, broad immunosuppressive strategies.

This study found that substituting soy hulls for corn-based supplements did not significantly affect ewe growth, reproductive performance, or lamb performance in pasture-based hair sheep systems.
