This study found diverse clinical presentations of lichen planopilaris, with classic lichen planopilaris being the most common, highlighting the importance of recognizing this variability for accurate diagnosis.

In patients undergoing treatment with capecitabine for colon cancer and metastatic breast cancer, this study observed that hand-foot syndrome occurred more frequently than with intravenous 5-FU, but other side effects were less common.

This article reviews the diagnosis and management of inherited epidermolysis bullosa and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the importance of clinical and histopathological evaluation.

In this study, rheumatoid arthritis patients showed no changes in the number of circulating follicular helper T cells, but these cells had increased CD200 expression, implicating them in disease pathogenesis and suggesting CD200/CD200R as a potential therapeutic target.

This review proposes a classification system for childhood hair loss based on clinical appearance, age of onset, and associated symptoms, but reports no new clinical results.
