This case report details a patient with Satoyoshi syndrome presenting with uveitis and impending central retinal vein occlusion, a previously undocumented complication, suggesting uveitis as a potential complication of the syndrome.

This mini review discusses insights into the pathogenesis of hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting genetic mutations, autoinflammation, and the effectiveness of biologics, and introduces the concept of autoinflammatory keratinization disease, without reporting new clinical results.

This review presents an evidence-based algorithm for managing hidradenitis suppurativa in primary care, highlighting the need for more research on treatment effectiveness and the disease's pathogenesis.

In this case report, researchers document the first known instance of a dog developing both uveodermatological syndrome and alopecia areata concurrently, similar to occurrences in human patients, and provide a detailed overview of the clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up.

This case report documents a rare instance where homonymous hemianopia was the first manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus in a 42-year-old woman, suggesting its potential inclusion as an initial diagnostic indicator in SLE.

This clinical case report describes a 44-year-old male whose initial diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis progressed over a decade to include systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjögren's Syndrome, highlighting the complexity of managing multiple autoimmune syndromes.

This article updates a diagnostic tool (SALT II) for assessing hair loss by adding more precise measurements of scalp surface area, particularly useful for various types of alopecia.

This study found that individuals with androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower serum vaspin levels than healthy controls, suggesting vaspin deficiency might help detect early-stage androgenic alopecia.

This study in a Pakistani family identified a novel ST14 gene variant as the likely genetic cause of autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis syndrome.

This study observed that inflammatory AIGA is associated with sweat duct inflammation and sweat coil atrophy, while non-inflammatory AIGA involves only sweat coil atrophy, suggesting distinct pathological features between the two.

This study found that the serine protease BSSP is strongly expressed in mouse skin during carcinogenesis and is upregulated independently of c-Fos and unaffected by glucocorticoids.

In this case report, a 36-year-old patient undergoing secukinumab treatment for psoriasis experienced both hepatitis B reactivation and hair discoloration, suggesting a potential link between these effects, though further studies are needed to understand this relationship.

This study reported that dermoscopy can aid in distinguishing secondary syphilis from other skin conditions by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, though there are no standardized criteria; further research is needed to confirm these findings.
