This case report details the first known instance of interferon-induced lichen planus in a seronegative HCV patient with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

This study reported that while lichen planus was not significantly linked to hepatitis C virus infection, pruritus, dry skin, and hair loss were more common in HCV patients post-interferon treatment.

This case study suggests that treatment with Pil-Food, intended for hair loss prevention, may have triggered postinfantile giant cell hepatitis with autoimmune characteristics, which showed a rapid and effective response to corticosteroid therapy.

This study reports an increase in the frequency and variety of skin conditions associated with COVID-19, noting that milder cases often present with pernio-like lesions, while severe cases may involve livedo racemosa, retiform purpura, and acral ischemia.

In this study, exposure to ARBs, ACE inhibitors, and thiazides was associated with an increased risk of various skin cancers, including melanoma and nonmelanoma types, highlighting potential clinical implications for antihypertensive treatment choices.

The researchers reported an increased risk of malignant melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers with the use of angiotensin-receptor blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, and thiazides in a large patient study.

This case report highlights a 17-year-old girl with overlapping features of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and systemic lupus erythematosus, emphasizing the critical importance of early diagnosis and intensive therapy including plasma exchange.

This study found that lichen planopilaris in men typically presents similarly to women, with a lower likelihood of nonscalp hair loss and a higher association with mucosal lichen planus and thyroid disease.

This study found that human platelet lysate supported mesenchymal stem cell growth as effectively as fetal bovine serum, while fetal bovine serum was more effective for hepatocyte proliferation.

This case report documents a reversible instance of complete body hair loss (alopecia universalis) in a patient undergoing chronic hepatitis C treatment with pegylated interferon alpha-2b and ribavirin, with hair regrowth observed within three months after therapy completion.

In this study, researchers found that hepatitis C virus infection is a significant risk factor for sporadic porphyria cutanea tarda, suggesting familial cases might be more prevalent in areas with low hepatitis C infection rates.

In this study, a high daily dose of interferon alfa-2b administered initially six times a week for two weeks followed by thrice weekly for 12 weeks was most effective in sustaining normal ALT values in patients.

This article reviews the association between hepatitis C virus and systemic disorders like mixed cryoglobulinemia, highlighting potential autoimmune side effects from interferon-a2b treatments, and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses zinc supplementation as a complementary therapy for chronic hepatitis C, noting its potential benefits in improving treatment outcomes and reducing side effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlights lichen planus pigmentosus in a 60-year-old man, which was linked to previously undetected hepatitis C infection and liver cirrhosis, suggesting a need for hepatitis C testing in patients with similar dermatological manifestations.

In this study of Egyptian patients on hepatitis C treatment, 34% experienced skin-related side effects from sofosbuvir and daclatasvir, such as itching and hyperpigmentation, but most reactions were mild and reversible without needing to stop therapy.
