In this clinical case study, a 30-year-old man with systemic lupus erythematosus was diagnosed with both catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome and acquired haemophilia A, successfully treated with immunosuppressive therapy, plasma exchange, and IVIG, leading to a favourable outcome.

This study found that palmoplantar pustulosis patients exhibited oral dysbiosis, particularly among those with pustulotic arthro-osteosis, as compared to healthy controls.

This review discusses the diagnosis and management of acquired haemophilia and reports no new findings; the authors highlight the importance of early diagnosis to reduce mortality.

This study observed that adult Netherton syndrome patients showed a range of normal to diminished immune responses to polysaccharide, conjugate, and mRNA-based vaccines, with responses generally overlapping those of healthy controls, suggesting no consistent B- or T-cell immunodeficiency in this population.

This workshop reviewed various roles of endoplasmic reticulum chaperones, including calreticulin, in cellular signaling, disease states, and potential markers, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this first-in-human study, BLZ-100, an intraoperative fluorescent imaging agent, was administered to 21 patients before skin cancer surgery and was found to be well tolerated without serious adverse effects, suggesting its potential to help distinguish cancerous from non-cancerous tissue based on fluorescence.

This study found that high skin expression of amphiregulin in acute graft-versus-host disease was associated with severe disease grade, poor overall survival, and increased non-relapse mortality.

In this study, researchers reported that IL-17C plays a key pro-inflammatory role in human skin diseases and may be a promising therapeutic target for inflammatory skin conditions.

This study found that DC-HIL+ myeloid derived suppressor cells are increased in the blood and skin of patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus and show immunosuppressive properties.

New patents include innovations in skin and hair care, disease treatment, plant stress tolerance, and protein purification.

This study found that 1550-nm Er:Glass fractional laser treatment significantly increased hair density and shaft diameter in patients with androgenetic alopecia, though the mechanism may not involve Wnt10A or IGF-1 expression.

A woman developed white patches on her skin and curly hair after hepatitis C treatment, likely due to the medication interferon alpha.

This study highlights that the ACIP strongly recommends COVID-19 vaccination and booster doses for pregnant women, those breastfeeding, or trying to conceive, due to the safety of non-live vaccines in these groups and the protection they also offer to infants.

This case series suggests a possible, though likely very rare, association between vaccinations and hair loss, calling for further research in more defined populations.

The document concludes that rapid identification, isolation, and strict infection control are crucial to manage SARS outbreaks.

This review discusses the diagnosis, treatment, and management of atopic dermatitis in developing countries and identifies significant unmet medical needs, particularly in access to care and effective treatments; it reports no clinical results.

This review discusses the cutaneous manifestations associated with HIV infection, highlighting that these skin conditions often present atypically and are more severe compared to those in non-HIV-infected individuals; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that while cyclophosphamide remains effective for severe autoimmune conditions, it is associated with gastrointestinal side effects, infections, some cases of irreversible amenorrhoea, and a higher risk of malignancies, emphasizing the need for long-term monitoring.

This report discusses the various causes and clinical assessment of madarosis, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and diagnosing associated vision or life-threatening conditions, without presenting new findings.

This study found that follicular stem cells in hair follicles are more sensitive to the antiproliferative effects of glucocorticoids compared to basal keratinocytes due to incomplete desensitization.

This paper reviews different types of hair shaft dysplasias and does not report any new clinical findings.

This review discusses the role of gut microbiota in autoimmune and immune-mediated dermatological conditions like lupus and psoriasis, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for further study into microbial signatures and treatments.

This review discusses the role of skin manifestations as early markers and prognostic indicators of HIV infection in children but reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

This review discusses the relationship between ectodermal alterations and immunodeficiencies, particularly the roles of hyper-IgE syndrome, ectodermal dysplasia, and FOXN1 gene mutations, but it presents no new research findings.

A boy with toxic shock syndrome had severe heart rhythm problems but recovered with treatment.

This study shares preliminary findings that roxithromycin treatment tendentially increased hair shaft production and altered the hair follicle microbiota in human hair ex vivo, with substantial inter-individual differences observed.

All medications can cause skin rashes, often without a clear cause, and better tests are needed to identify these drug-related skin issues.

This review describes the signs, symptoms, and complications of COVID-19, noting that symptoms often overlap with common and non-specific features, especially in older adults and in different stages of illness.

Most inconsolable crying in infants is not due to a serious cause, and a detailed check-up is typically enough to find the reason.
