This article discusses various hematologic issues in systemic lupus erythematosus, including anaemia and thrombocytopenia, and examines treatment approaches like B-cell depletion and complement inhibition, without reporting new clinical results.

This report details a case of tuberculous lymphadenitis in a 21-year-old female with SLE, suggesting that immune suppression may increase susceptibility to this extra-pulmonary TB.

This report describes a patient with biotinidase deficiency presenting bilateral optic atrophy, and confirms autosomal recessive inheritance through enzyme dosage analysis in the patient and family members.

This study found a significant relationship between lash ptosis severity and marginal reflex distance, levator function, and double fold presence in Asian patients, which may inform surgical planning for upper eyelid procedures.

This study found that applying a formulation derived from Bacopa procumbens significantly promoted hair growth, pigmentation, and follicular cycle acceleration in mice compared to minoxidil, potentially offering a new therapeutic approach for hair health.

This study describes a newly recognized skin reaction associated with dasatinib, nilotinib, and ponatinib, marked by a lichenoid exanthem with severe pruritus that may necessitate discontinuation of therapy.

This study found that systemic lupus erythematosus was diagnosed earlier in males than females, with a notable delay in diagnosis for females often due to confounding symptom overlaps with other conditions.

This study suggests that BLMP-1 is important for timely molting and oscillatory gene expression in C. elegans, indicating a potentially conserved mechanism for rhythmic skin regeneration.

This review focuses on the pharmacological properties, indications, contraindications, and safety profile of bicalutamide, a non-steroidal androgen receptor antagonist, in dermatological research, particularly its off-label use for improving female pattern hair loss as measured by Sinclair grading.

This study analyzed trichoscopic features of discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp in skin of color and found distinct patterns based on clinical morphology.

This study reports that the modified lateral brow lift effectively elevates the lateral brow with minimal complications, preserving scalp sensory innervation.

This study found that LEF-1 expression influences dermal papilla cells' proliferation through Wnt signaling, impacting the potential for cashmere yield improvement.

In this 1-year study of patients with alopecia areata universalis, researchers found that 0.03% topical bimatoprost led to an acceptable cosmetic response in 43.24% of participants.

This report presents two cases of systemic lupus in male patients with a distinct form of alopecia that combines both scarring and non-scarring elements, highlighting the variability in lupus-related hair loss presentations.

In this research, RNA expression analysis of scalp biopsies from lichen planopilaris patients revealed changes in specific genes after treatments with hydroxychloroquine, narrow band UVB, or low level laser light therapy, suggesting potential biomarkers and implicating M2 macrophages in the disease's immunopathogenesis.

This study presents a case of neuropsychiatric lupus in a 50-year-old woman, highlighting the severe impact on quality of life and the necessity for aggressive treatment to improve outcomes.

This study found that combining dibenyline and finasteride for symptomatic BPH treatment offered modest improvements with fewer additional side effects compared to each drug alone.

This case study presents what is reportedly the first association of Graham Little-Lassueur Syndrome with chronic hepatitis C, observed in a 47-year-old female patient.

This study found that autophagy is impaired in Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome-associated renal tumors and identified that the FLCN protein interacts with key autophagy components regulated by ULK1.

This study observed that basal cell carcinoma on the scalp shares more similar characteristics with truncal lesions than facial lesions, despite the scalp's proximity to the face.

This case report suggests that Rituximab and high-dose immunosuppressive therapy may be effective for treating severe cutaneous lupus erythematosus like TEN-like ACLE, leading to remission and recovery.

This report describes the clinical presentation of Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome in two brothers and reviews the related literature, without providing new clinical outcomes.

This study suggests that Arabs with systemic lupus erythematosus in Dubai show similar clinical features to patients from other Arab and Western countries, with a notable prevalence of positive anti-Ro antibodies.

This review highlights that bicalutamide, a non-steroidal antiandrogen used in prostate cancer treatment, is mainly effective through its (R)-enantiomer and emphasizes the need to monitor its adverse effects despite its targeted antiandrogenic action.

In this study, patients with mild to moderate scalp seborrheic dermatitis experienced greater improvements in severity scores and quality of life with Lulican™ shampoo compared to Ketoconazole over four weeks, with similar safety profiles but better tolerability and cosmetic acceptability for LulicanTM.

In this study, researchers found that among adults with severe alopecia, continued treatment with baricitinib for 104 weeks maintained hair regrowth effectively in those who responded at 52 weeks, with improved outcomes noted in some initially non-responders receiving 4 mg.

This study describes a family with uncombable hair syndrome, suggesting autosomal dominant inheritance, and reports that oral biotin improved hair appearance in two young patients.

This study identified histologic lesions and a defect in adhesion molecules causing hair loss in mice with the bal mutation, linked to a mutation in the desmoglein 3 gene.

This article discusses the complexities of diagnosing systemic lupus erythematosus and its potential triggers but reports no new clinical findings.
