This article reports no new clinical results and reviews a case of scarring alopecia in conjunction with Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease.

In this study, the KPAI and KP-IGA scoring systems for assessing keratosis pilaris showed excellent interrater and intrarater reliability, offering standardized measures for clinical and research use.

In this study, researchers reported that a keratinocyte growth factor-Ig fusion protein could specifically detect and localize KGFRs in epithelial tissues, suggesting a method for histochemical detection of growth factor receptors.

In this case study, a 12-year-old girl with severe Crohn colitis achieved impressive clinical and endoscopic remission after receiving infliximab and azathioprine as first-line treatment, suggesting potential benefits of early intensive therapy.

This study found that treatment with EGFR inhibitors or mitogen-activated kinase inhibitors may compromise the immune privilege of human scalp hair follicles, suggesting new directions for managing drug-induced folliculitis.

This review discusses the unclear etiology and potential contributing factors of frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no new clinical findings.

Ixekizumab helps improve life quality, physical ability, and work performance in patients with psoriatic arthritis who haven't used biologic drugs before.

The researchers reported that iPSCs derived from Sendai virus reprogrammed blood cells can mature into functional keratinocytes for up to 60 days, potentially offering new approaches for DEB treatment.

This study observed that dermoscopy is a useful technique for distinguishing between infundibular keratinising acanthoma and follicular cysts in dogs, with specific dermoscopic features noted for each.

This study reports that JAK inhibitors were effective in inducing remission in ulcerative colitis patients and presented an acceptable safety profile with a range of manageable side effects.

In this study, deleting the Igf1 receptor in specific skin cells of mice affected hair follicle cycling but not overall skin health, suggesting Igf1r's role in hair cycle regulation through Bmp-4 activation.

This study identified a new cytokeratin, mK6irs, specifically expressed in the inner root sheath of mouse hair follicles, distinguishing it as a member of the type II cytokeratin family.

This review discusses how JAK inhibitors, like tofacitinib and baricitinib, show promise in improving conditions like lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia by reducing severity scores and enhancing hair regrowth, though further research on safety and personalized approaches is needed.

This study reports that the recombinant expression vector pcDNA3.1-KK demonstrates specific expression in the skin of newborn mice.

This study found an IFIS incidence rate of 3.18% among cataract surgeries in a Chinese hospital and identified reserpine, clozapine, and post-panretinal photocoagulation as new risk factors.

This report discusses two cases where patients continued EGFR inhibitor therapy while receiving topical treatments for SDRIFE, highlighting the importance of dermatologists in managing such cutaneous adverse events without stopping cancer treatment.

This review discusses risk factors for intraoperative floppy iris syndrome, emphasizing tamsulosin and other α1 blockers, and underscores the importance of preoperative screening to mitigate surgical complications, but it reports no new results.

This study found that intermittent treatment with FTI lonafarnib and sulforaphane may be a promising therapeutic approach for children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, as it improved the cellular phenotype.

iNKT cells help develop and maintain healthy skin in young mice.

This review examines clinical data on the efficacy and safety of JAK inhibitors used for immune-mediated conditions beyond rheumatoid arthritis, highlighting their potential therapeutic roles in various inflammatory diseases.

This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.

In this case report, researchers identified a potential adverse skin reaction, called SDRIFE or Baboon syndrome, caused by the drug tofacitinib in a 19-year-old woman being treated for alopecia subtotalis, leading the authors to recommend discontinuation of the drug.

This study reported that canine recombinant IFNγ (KT‐100) significantly improved atopic dermatitis symptoms in dogs compared to placebo, and it appeared to be safe during the study period.

This article discusses intraoperative floppy iris syndrome during cataract surgery and highlights the importance of awareness and preoperative documentation of its risk factors, emphasizing a multidisciplinary approach to management.

In this report, a unique female presentation of IFAP syndrome is described, featuring musculoskeletal contractures but no photophobia, highlighting the importance of early detection and multidisciplinary care to improve outcomes and prevent disability.

This study found that a key gene signature, including FGF11, highlights the immunologic nature of keloid lesions, distinguishing them from normal fibroblasts and scars.

This study found that taking oral FKH supplements for 90 days improved facial skin, hair, and nail appearance, and highlighted the role of free L-amino acids as potentially beneficial beyond their protein-building functions.
