This study found that trichoscopy is crucial for distinguishing lupus erythematosus-specific alopecia from alopecia areata, leading to more accurate diagnoses and better outcomes for patients.

This case study identified a 22-year-old patient with multiple autoimmune syndrome type 3, involving lupus erythematosus, autoimmune thyroiditis, alopecia areata, and vitiligo.

This case study highlights a 36-year-old woman with alopecia areata who experienced near complete hair regrowth after intralesional triamcinolone acetonide; further investigation revealed a systemic lupus erythematosus diagnosis.

This case study reported that systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can initially present as patchy non-scarring alopecia, potentially misdiagnosed as alopecia areata, highlighting the importance of thorough examination.

This case study reported significant improvement in autoimmune-related symptoms, including complete hair regrowth, in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus and alopecia areata after treatment with the LGS Protocol.

This report describes two cases of cutaneous lupus erythematosus mimicking alopecia areata, highlighting the importance of considering CLE in the diagnosis of patchy hair loss to prevent scarring alopecia.

Telitacicept effectively improved hair regrowth in a woman with lupus and alopecia.

This study identified distinct clinical and dermatoscopic features to differentiate non-scarring patchy alopecia in SLE from alopecia areata, emphasizing the value of serological tests in diagnosis.

In this case report, a patient with a history of discoid lupus erythematosus experienced an exacerbation of the condition after topical immunotherapy for alopecia areata, suggesting contact dermatitis as a potential trigger.

Autoimmune conditions can be linked to trichoepitheliomas, with treatment focusing on cosmetic concerns.

This case report describes areata-like lupus in a 63-year-old woman, characterized by nonscarring patchy alopecia similar to alopecia areata, without meeting systemic lupus erythematosus criteria.

This study observed that in a series of 28 patients with different types of alopecia, specific trichoscopic markers like exclamation-mark hairs and yellow dots helped distinguish alopecia areata from conditions like lichen planopilaris and discoid lupus erythematosus, which showed follicular ostia loss and white scarring.

This study found a significant association between alopecia areata and systemic lupus erythematosus, with a particularly strong link observed in children.

This case report describes a 54-year-old Saudi woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and severe alopecia, where conventional treatments were ineffective. When belimumab was ineffective, baricitinib led to significant improvement in her condition, suggesting further research is needed to evaluate baricitinib's role in managing SLE.

In this case report, a woman developed severe alopecia areata approximately one year after starting belimumab for systemic lupus erythematosus, with hair loss improving upon discontinuation of the drug, suggesting a possible connection between belimumab and immune-mediated hair loss.

This study demonstrated that litifilimab significantly reduced disease activity in cutaneous lupus erythematosus by Week 16, with improvements most notable in sunlight-exposed skin areas.

This case report highlights that tumid lupus erythematosus should be considered in the differential diagnosis of annular scalp lesions with non-scarring alopecia, emphasizing histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis.

This article discusses various patterns of hair loss associated with lupus erythematosus, emphasizing the importance of identifying the specific type to aid in classifying systemic lupus erythematosus.

This case report describes a 27-year-old woman with lupus erythematosus whose biopsy findings indicated that lupus panniculitis can mimic alopecia areata, leading to temporary hair loss.

This resource outlines the focus areas of the Madridge Journal of Dermatology & Research and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that alopecia areata is linked with a higher prevalence of systemic and psychiatric diseases, suggesting that physicians should monitor for these potential comorbidities.

This study suggests that damage to stem cells in the bulge region of hair follicles may contribute to scarring in chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus.

This study found that, in Germany between 2016 and 2020, alopecia areata had an annual prevalence of 210 cases per 100,000 and an incidence of 72 cases per 100,000, with higher rates in specific regions and associated with comorbidities like atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.

This case report describes a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed both alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris despite immunosuppressive treatment, suggesting a shared immunopathogenesis between these disorders.

This source explores the association between alopecia areata and thyroid dysfunction, highlighting a particularly strong link with Hashimoto thyroiditis and hypothyroidism.

This study found that trichoscopy can differentiate between dermatomyositis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and systemic sclerosis by identifying distinctive features and may help assess disease activity.

This letter to the editor discusses a previous clinical and histopathological analysis of four cases of severe diffuse non-scarring hair loss in systemic lupus erythematosus, reporting no new study results.

This case report describes a 22-year-old woman initially suspected of alopecia areata, whose scalp lesions were ultimately diagnosed as discoid lupus erythematosus after histopathological analysis.

This study found that 51.1% of healthcare professionals with confirmed COVID-19 reported dermatological symptoms, with hair loss being the most common, and highlighted a potential link between prophylactic vitamin D use and red papule skin lesions that warrants further investigation.

This article discusses the clinical features of tumid lupus erythematosus and emphasizes its importance as a differential diagnosis for noncicatricial alopecia, highlighting a case similar to alopecia areata without reporting new clinical results.
