This study involved 69 hair experts using a Delphi process to achieve consensus on treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, finding strong agreement on disease monitoring but less on physical and systemic therapies, indicating the need for more research.

This review discusses the role of fibroblast heterogeneity in determining skin scarring versus regeneration and reports no new results, highlighting opportunities for developing antiscarring therapies.

This study reports cases of histopathologically proven cutaneous lupus erythematosus manifesting as frontal fibrosing alopecia, with improvement following treatment with oral hydroxychloroquine and/or intralesional triamcinolone acetonide.

This study found that iron retention in macrophages impairs hair follicle growth and delays wound healing in mice, highlighting the importance of macrophage iron release for skin health.

This case report describes three pediatric cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, a condition typically seen in postmenopausal women, including a unique instance involving female twins.

This study reports a case of constrictive pericarditis associated with COVID-19, highlighting the need for imaging, biomarkers, and histology for effective evaluation and treatment decisions.

This review explores the role of fatty acids and bioactive lipid mediators in skin health and suggests targeting this metabolic network to control inflammation and improve skin conditions, but it reports no new findings.

In this mouse study, the researchers found that the monoclonal antibody ME1 causes hair follicle inflammation by up-regulating TNFα, which can be reduced by TNFα and interleukin-1 inhibitors.

This case study reports on a mother and daughter with ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia, noting consistent keratotic eruptions during the mother's pregnancies that improved postpartum.

This study reports that anifrolumab showed promising improvement in a case of refractory discoid lupus erythematosus, specifically enhancing skin lesions and promoting hair regrowth, suggesting potential as an effective therapy for severe cases.

This study suggests that linalool, a common allergen in personal care products, may contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia pathogenesis by triggering immune responses and depleting hair follicle stem cells, especially in sensitized individuals.

This report describes a case of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome with manifestations including multiple fibrofolliculomas, acrochordons, and renal oncocytoma.

Fibroblasts help understand androgen resistance at the cellular level.

Tufted folliculitis is common in patients with folliculitis decalvans.

This study describes a distinctive hair loss pattern with features of psoriasis and alopecia areata linked to TNF-α inhibitors, noting various management options despite the lack of consensus guidelines.

This study observed that combining high-potency steroids with pimecrolimus might effectively stabilize hairline recession in frontal fibrosing alopecia patients.

This study found that deferiprone significantly reduced dermal fibrosis and skin thickness in mice with chronic kidney disease treated with Omniscan, suggesting iron's role in gadolinium chelate toxicity and nephrogenic systemic fibrosis.

This case report observed hair regrowth following the treatment of alopecia universalis and atopic dermatitis with tofacitinib, a JAK inhibitor.

This paper discusses the potential of targeting fibrosis in addressing lower urinary tract symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia, but it provides no new clinical findings and highlights the need for further research.

This report documents the first known case of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy potentially linked to pegylated interferon-alpha 2a in a woman undergoing treatment for chronic hepatitis C.

This study found that horses with inflammatory skin diseases had a higher prevalence of surface cocci and fungal poroconidia compared to those with healthy skin.

This study identified at least four distinct fibroblast populations in adult human skin, each with unique functional properties, suggesting potential therapeutic applications for wound healing and fibrosis-related diseases.

In this report, researchers described a 36-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia resistant to standard treatments, who showed significant improvement after six months on a combination of intralesional betamethasone and oral hydroxychloroquine, suggesting potential benefits of this therapy approach in managing the condition.

This study found that the multifunctional FEA-PCEI dressing significantly accelerated wound healing, reduced scar formation, and promoted hair follicle neogenesis while providing antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits.

In this case report, a patient with HIV developed hirsutism after starting tofacitinib for alopecia areata, which resolved upon medication discontinuation and laser hair removal.

This study suggests that IL-1β may play a role in inflammatory signaling pathways in papulopustular rosacea, contributing to its pathogenesis.

In this study of women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, delgocitinib cream improved the molecular signature of lesions and demonstrated potential as a treatment, showing significant transcriptomic changes and some clinical improvements over 12 weeks compared to a cream vehicle.

This paper discusses potential links between fat distribution, adipocyte dysfunction, and inflammatory markers in PCOS patients, without presenting new clinical data.

In this case-control study, individuals with alopecia areata showed significantly elevated levels of inflammatory markers IL-4, IFN-γ, and CRP, as well as reduced serum Folate and Ferritin, suggesting the condition's multifactorial pathophysiology involves immune activation, systemic inflammation, and micronutrient deficiencies.
