This article reviews the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment options for discoid lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a patient with lichen planopillaris experienced complete resolution of itching and hair shedding following treatment with a new platelet-rich plasma regimen, marking the first reported success in this context.

This case report describes a patient with lichen planopilaris who experienced remarkable hair regrowth at a previously scarred area after treatment with low-dose naltrexone and platelet-rich plasma, following minimal response to other therapies.

This review discusses low level laser therapy for hair loss but reports no new research findings; it serves as an introduction to understanding existing knowledge before upcoming evaluations of recent studies.

A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.

An 8-year-old girl developed a rare skin condition in a linear pattern on one side of her body after a lung infection, which improved with treatment.

This study found that Low Power Laser therapy may be an effective complementary treatment for scalp alopecia and crural ulcers, showing quicker and potentially better results than conventional treatments.

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

In this study, Wang et al. (2022) found that in patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus, chronic lesions contained more senescent progenitor cells, marked by p16 and p21, than subacute lesions, suggesting a link between disease chronicity and cellular senescence.

This report describes a rare case of scarring alopecia, diagnosed as lichen planopilaris (LPP), affecting solely the limbs, highlighting the necessity for thorough evaluation of LPP beyond the scalp.

This review discusses the role of LPA(3) in embryo implantation and its genetic connection with prostaglandin signaling, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlights a misdiagnosis of traction alopecia that progressed to lichen planopilaris in a patient of color, emphasizing the need to consider LPP in similar cases due to differing treatments.

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 article discusses the applications and proposed benefits of LED low level light therapy for various conditions like acne, wound healing, and pain relief, but provides no new clinical results.

The abstract highlights that lichen planus can manifest as cicatricial alopecia or lichen planopilaris, while discoid lupus erythematosus, a common form of lupus erythematosus, typically causes scarring alopecia. Results are not reported here.

This narrative review discusses lichen planus pigmentosus, including its variations, associated triggers, and management strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study determined that the incidence of Discoid Lupus Erythematosus at the Government General Hospital, Chennai, from 2006 to 2008 was 1.7 per 1000, with localized and disseminated forms manifesting distinctive demographic and clinical patterns.

This review discusses the pathophysiologic role of lysophosphatidic acid in the skin and reports no clinical results, suggesting pharmacological inhibition as a potential treatment for various skin disorders.

This article reviews lichen planopilaris, a chronic scarring alopecia, and explores recent treatment developments, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study reviewed cases of Graham–Little-Piccardi–Lassueur syndrome and found that topical treatments were generally ineffective, while systemic therapies like prednisone, hydroxychloroquine, and isotretinoin led to partial hair regrowth and disease stabilization, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and systemic therapy to improve outcomes.

LMWP-PDGFA shows promise for improving hair health and treating hair loss with fewer side effects.

This study found that p2y5 functions as a novel LPA receptor involved in the G13-Rho signaling pathway, with implications for human hair growth, and proposes renaming it to LPA6.

This study examined the safety and efficacy of dupilumab in adolescents with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, finding that it was well tolerated and significantly improved symptoms over 52 weeks, with its safety profile similar to that in adults.

This study found that combining diagonal earlobe crease with lipoprotein(a) provides strong diagnostic value for coronary heart disease.

This letter discusses three plasmacytoid dendritic cell-related parameters that may help differentiate lupus alopecia from lichen planopilaris, but it reports no new study results.

In this study, the P&P Hairline Laser, a hands-free laser-assisted device, was found to produce smoother and more symmetrical hairlines compared to traditional handheld laser devices.

This review discusses the potential relationship between lichen planus pigmentosus and frontal fibrosing alopecia, presenting a case study but reporting no new clinical findings.

This case report found that a novel botanical treatment halted disease progression and promoted hair regrowth in four patients with lichen planopilaris, indicating potential for use as a safe alternative therapy.

This study observed that trichoscopy of long-lasting lesions in a chronic stage revealed specific features such as absence of follicular openings, cicatricial patches, and thick arborizing vessels.
