This case study suggests that thrombosis was related to anti-phospholipid antibody in a woman with systemic lupus erythematosus, characterized by multiple aseptic bone necroses and arterial blockages.

This review discusses the advancement and validation of outcome measures for pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus to improve disease monitoring and treatment precision but reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews historical uses of the term "lupus" for various skin disorders but provides no new clinical findings.

This study found that coconut oil clinically helps with brittle hair and hair infestation, while evidence for castor and argan oils improving hair growth or quality is weak.

This study found that direct immunofluorescence of hair is a simple and non-invasive alternative for monitoring pemphigus vulgaris, matching skin biopsy results in the cases observed.

This study found that anti-androgens may reduce OCD symptoms, but the evidence is of low quality and further large, randomized trials are needed.

This study found that the genes FCER1A and RGS1 are promising biomarkers for diagnosing systemic lupus erythematosus, with FCER1A downregulated and RGS1 upregulated in patients.

This study compiled an archive of 684 genes associated with monogenic hair disorders, identifying previously unrecognized components of Hippo signaling and proposing a new biologically-grounded disease taxonomy.

This study found that RANKL signaling enhances CD8+ T cell-mediated anti-viral immunity during herpes simplex virus infection by preventing apoptosis of Langerhans cells, suggesting potential therapeutic applications.

This review discusses sex-based differences in immune responses, focusing on genetic, hormonal, and microbiome factors influencing infections like COVID-19, and reports no clinical results.

This literature review observed that patients with thrombophilic conditions may experience distinct and more severe Long COVID symptoms, potentially linked to chronic hypercoagulation post-COVID-19 infection.

In this case report, treatment with anifrolumab led to significant improvement in symptoms for a 52-year-old woman with refractory systemic lupus erythematosus, including resolution of chronic lupus headaches resistant to previous therapies.

This study found that among patients with Down syndrome, those with alopecia areata may have increased antiperoxidase antibodies, possibly linked to hypothyroidism.

In this case report, two patients with polyautoimmunity and difficult-to-treat lupus erythematosus experienced significant symptom improvement after adding anifrolumab to their regimen, suggesting its potential as an effective add-on therapy for refractory cutaneous symptoms in autoimmune conditions characterized by elevated interferon alpha activity.

This paper explores the complex immune processes and cellular diversity that enable the skin to heal and resist invasion, and highlights its potential as a model for studying regeneration.

This review discusses the pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of cutaneous lupus erythematosus, reporting no new clinical findings.

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 complex role of the immune system in tissue repair and regeneration, highlighting its positive and negative influences but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that late-onset systemic lupus erythematosus in a French cohort was characterized by a lower disease severity but reduced survival mainly attributed to aging-related factors.

In this study, researchers found that substance P triggered premature catagen development and immune changes in human scalp hair follicles, providing a possible biological link between stress and hair loss conditions like telogen effluvium and alopecia areata.

This review discusses the role of the circadian clock in skin functions such as cell proliferation and UV protection and reports no new results; the authors note its potential in studying immune regulation and seasonal behaviors.

This study found that feeding aged mice a probiotic yogurt induced changes leading to thicker, healthier fur, suggesting a bacteria-triggered interleukin-10-dependent mechanism that mimics signs of youth and reproductive fitness.

This review discusses the potential autoimmune pathogenesis and various contributing factors of alopecia areata, noting that current treatments remain palliative while emerging therapies offer new hope for extensive cases.

This review finds that vigorous aerobic exercise and resistance training may improve insulin sensitivity and androgen levels in women with PCOS, though more research is needed for definitive conclusions.
