This literature review found that Long COVID is a complex condition involving multiple body systems, influenced by factors like pre-existing conditions and vaccination status, with differing manifestations and persistence, complicating diagnosis and treatment efforts.

This review characterizes breast implant illness and its autoimmune symptoms, reporting an association between breast implants and autoimmune diseases, with explantation relieving symptoms in over half of patients.

In this study, researchers analyzed over 5,000 T cells per sample using scRNA+TCR-seq technology and found that dual TCR Tregs are present in high proportions across various mouse tissues, showing unique TCR pairing patterns, V(D)J usage, and mRNA expression compared to single TCR Tregs.

This review discusses ichthyosis with confetti, highlighting its genetic basis, clinical features, diagnostic criteria, and current treatment options but reports no new clinical results.

This research found that combining a 308-nm excimer laser with oral compound glycyrrhizin and topical 0.03% tacrolimus was more effective for treating pediatric facial and cervical vitiligo, resulting in faster and higher rates of repigmentation with minimal adverse effects compared to glycyrrhizin and tacrolimus alone.

This paper explores the relationship between the dermal extracellular matrix and cutaneous malignant melanoma, suggesting that ECM involvement may play a key role in the cancer's growth, invasiveness, and initial metastasis.

In this study, imiquimod was found to increase regression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia compared to placebo, though it commonly caused side effects that rarely led to treatment discontinuation.

This study found diverse clinical presentations in patients with newly detected connective tissue disease, highlighting the diagnostic and prognostic importance of cutaneous features.

This study found that among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, the absence of skin rash and low levels of complement C3 were significant risk factors for developing lupus nephritis, with their combination demonstrating good predictive diagnostic value.

In this study, triamcinolone acetonide injections led to partial hair regrowth in 60% of alopecia totalis patients, suggesting potential benefits when followed by immunotherapy.

This review discusses hypersensitivity reactions to anticoagulants, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and exploring various diagnostic and management options, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that among COVID-19 patients, a higher presence of the G allele in the IFITM3 rs12252 polymorphism correlates with increased inflammatory markers and disease severity, noting higher ESR, CRP, Fibrinogen, LDH, and D-dimer levels in severe cases compared to mild ones.

This case report suggests that intralesional cidofovir successfully treated SCC without systemic toxicity, making it a potential alternative to consider alongside surgical excision.

In this study, the researchers reported that using a biodegradable ECM scaffold for large-area wound regeneration accelerated wound coverage and improved hair follicle neogenesis by activating the adaptive immune system.

This study found that mRNA booster vaccinations for SARS-CoV-2 increased protective antibodies without worsening autoimmune disease activity in patients with pemphigus and bullous pemphigoid.

In this case study, a 13-year-old girl with multiple autoimmune symptoms was successfully treated with the antibiotic and immunomodulatory drug co-trimoxazole.

This review discusses how immune mechanisms contribute to the regeneration and repair of epithelial tissues and highlights their potential role in both disease and therapeutic innovation; it reports no new clinical results.

Three molecular subtypes of advanced skin T-cell lymphoma were identified, with potential biomarkers for predicting treatment response and disease progression.

In this report, the potential connection between Merkel cell carcinoma and Curvularia lunata infection in an elderly patient is discussed, highlighting the need for precise diagnostic methods and suggesting that surgery combined with the antifungal voriconazole may be a viable treatment option.

This article discusses skin lesions in chronic graft-versus-host disease and highlights the importance of coordinated care between haematologists and dermatologists for effective management; it presents no new clinical results.

This study describes and characterizes four cases of alopecia areata induced by immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in cancer patients, highlighting the importance of recognizing and managing these hair-related adverse events.

In this case series, researchers reported scarring alopecia in six out of 450 patients (1.33%) treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors for metastatic melanoma, with all affected patients experiencing other immune-related adverse effects but continuing treatment with favorable cancer outcomes.

This study reports that a novel gain-of-function mutation in TMEM173, combined with polymorphisms in TMEM173 and IFIH1, results in a distinct clinical phenotype with features of SAVI, including alopecia and photosensitivity.

This study found that D-peptide crosslinked MAP hydrogel accelerated material degradation in vivo but significantly enhanced skin regeneration, suggesting an adaptive immune response can drive regenerative healing even with rapid scaffold breakdown.

A young woman with a rare fungal infection showed significant improvement after treatment with antifungal medication.

This study found that local injection of anti-HSV sera in mice provided long-term protection against zoster-like skin lesions and sweating disturbances following an HSV-1 challenge.

This study observed that DMAP scaffolds in a full-thickness wound model promote dermal appendage regeneration by activating humoral immunity, specifically through B cell activation and antibody production, even when adaptive immune cells' infiltration is restricted.

Complex basal cell carcinomas need personalized treatment due to unique genetic mutations.

This study reports that a clinical prognostic model based on immune-related genes improved survival prediction for patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma, also identifying potential drugs targeting the gene DOCK8.

This case study describes a mixed breed dog with complex dermatitis caused by infections of Demodex sp, Sarcoptes scabiei, and Malassezia sp and reports that a combination of ivermectin treatment and sulfur shampoo improved the dog's symptoms after 14 days.
