This report describes a 60-year-old female with pretibial pruritic papular dermatitis who showed significant improvement of skin lesions after one month of treatment with oral pentoxifylline. The authors highlight the unique clinical and histological features of PPPD and propose pentoxifylline as a potential therapy.

This study found that the mutant hairless rhino bald protein in mice interacts with the vitamin D receptor but cannot repress its transactivation and shows abnormal cellular localization.

In this study on testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in rats, hydroxychloroquine significantly reduced prostate-related markers and enhanced therapeutic effects when combined with finasteride, suggesting potential as a new treatment approach.

This study found that patients taking hydroxychloroquine had a significantly higher likelihood of indeterminate QuantiFERON-TB Gold test results compared to those not on the medication, independent of other immunosuppressive drug use.

This review explores the hormonal factors related to hidradenitis suppurativa, emphasizing insulin resistance and pro-inflammatory adipokines, but reports no new clinical findings and suggests further research is needed.

This report details a case study where a 40-year-old woman experienced allergic contact dermatitis and angioedema-like symptoms after using PPD-containing hair dye. Patch testing confirmed a positive reaction to PPD, highlighting the substance's potential to cause both T-cell and IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reactions.

This case study highlights that even short-term use of hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 can potentially lead to acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis as an adverse effect.

In this study, researchers re-evaluated biopsies from elderly patients with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp and identified plasma cell and lymphocyte infiltrates as key histological indicators for diagnosis, observing that high-potency topical steroids effectively healed the lesions.

This case report describes a 65-year-old woman with childhood-onset growth hormone deficiency who developed panhypopituitarism, including late-onset secondary hypoadrenocorticism, affecting her respiratory and renal function.

This abstract discusses the dermatological symptoms associated with hepatitis C virus infections but reports no new research findings.

This article describes erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, emphasizing its chronic nature, potential complications, and the lack of specific diagnostic findings, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, trypsin digestion was found to be a faster and more efficient method than the explant technique for extracting bulge-derived keratinocytes from adult scalp biopsies.

This paper outlines the chronic inflammatory skin disorder hidradenitis suppurativa, emphasizing its symptomatology, associated systemic diseases, known risk factors, and treatment strategies, including medical and surgical interventions depending on disease severity, while highlighting its significant impact on patients' quality of life.

This case study details a 44-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus who developed hypereosinophilic asthma and was initially treated as ANCA-negative eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. Her condition, eventually classified as HASM, underscores the need for evaluating EGPA-spectrum disorders in similar scenarios.

This case report describes a 6-year-old who developed autoimmune conditions including type III polyglandular autoimmune syndrome following drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome, prompting an investigation into associated triggering factors.

A woman with a skin disorder was found to have hepatitis C, which may be linked, and was safely treated with methotrexate.

This case report describes a 34-year-old woman with pituitary stalk interruption syndrome, highlighting the need for long-term follow-up due to potential progression from isolated hormonal deficiencies to pan-hypopituitarism.

This study found that female adolescents with pilonidal sinus disease had significantly higher insulin levels and HOMA-IR scores, suggesting hyperinsulinemia may be a risk factor for the condition.

During treatment with interferon/ribavirin for hepatitis C, this study observed significant and lasting improvement in a patient's psoriasis without additional psoriasis-specific therapies.

This study found that dermatoses are common in people living with HIV and may serve as indicators of disease stage, with certain conditions more prevalent when CD4+ counts are below 200/mm³.

This study created transgenic mouse models with the LMNA gene mutation common in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, revealing skin and teeth abnormalities related to transgene expression levels.

This review examines the dysregulation of innate immune barriers in the early stages of hidradenitis suppurativa and calls for further research on the role of the hair follicle and immune responses, but reports no new results.

This study described the clinical and genetic features of two Iranian siblings with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets, identifying a specific VDR gene mutation contributing to their symptoms.

This study identified a compound heterozygous mutation in the 3 beta-HSD gene that confirmed inherited 3 beta-HSD deficiency in a Pakistani child with salt-wasting congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This case report documents a female toddler with novel compound heterozygous mutations in the VDR gene causing hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets, expanding the known mutation spectrum for this disease.

This study found that 11α-hydroxyprogesterone is a potent inhibitor of 11βHSD2 in vitro and may serve as a precursor to unique C11α-hydroxy steroids in prostate cancer tissue.

This study found that adalimumab treatment led to regression of lesions in two patients with hidradenitis suppurativa after 16 weeks of therapy.

A woman had a delayed allergic reaction to the blood thinner enoxaparin, treated with a steroid cream.

This article reports a case of erosive pustular dermatosis on the scalp of an elderly male, highlighting its complex diagnosis and successful treatment with high-potency topical corticosteroids.

In this study, researchers found that skin diseases like atopic dermatitis, acne, and psoriasis are associated with increased odds of alcohol use disorder, with psychiatric conditions such as anxiety and depression partially mediating this relationship, accounting for up to 80% of the risk.
