This article reviews the pathogenesis, complications, and management of lichen planus, especially its persistent oral form, and highlights the need for further prospective studies.

This extensive review discusses the clinical manifestations, potential associations, and treatment approaches for lichen planus, but reports no new clinical results, highlighting gaps in evidence for therapeutic strategies.

This review discusses the development and trials of finasteride for prostate cancer prevention, reporting reduced cancer prevalence but noting concerns about increased high-grade cancer incidence.

This case report highlights the association of three CX26 gene mutations, particularly the D50N mutation, with keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome and its potential role in scalp squamous cell carcinoma and breast cancer development in a patient.

PH-762 shows promise in treating skin cancer by effectively targeting and silencing PD-1 in tumors with minimal side effects.

This study found that while malignant pilomatricomas maintain some keratin expression patterns seen in benign counterparts, they notably express additional epithelial keratins, potentially influencing tumor calcification.

This review examined the dermatological potential of Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) and found preliminary evidence of its beneficial effects on various non-malignant skin conditions, such as pigmentary disorders, inflammatory skin issues, wound healing, and scalp health, though further research is needed to confirm these findings.

This study presents a case of idiopathic alopecia mucinosa achieving complete remission with minocycline treatment and reviews the existing literature on the condition.

This study reported that ritlecitinib was generally well tolerated over 72 months in patients aged 12 and older with alopecia areata, with adverse events like headache and nasopharyngitis observed, and safety outcomes consistent with previous studies.

This review discusses the significance of elastic tissue staining in dermatopathology, particularly for diagnosing primary elastic tissue disorders and other skin conditions, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that phospho-S6 is strongly expressed in malignant hair follicle tumors but only patchily in a minority of benign tumors, indicating a potential marker for distinguishing between the two.

This article reviews treatment options for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, including skin-directed therapies and aggressive treatments for advanced cases, but reports no new clinical results.
