Minoxidil doesn't affect perifollicular lymphoid infiltration in alopecia areata patients.

This review summarizes recent findings on scalp involvement in pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus, highlighting diagnostic methods and their underlying histopathological, immunopathological, and clinical features, but reports no new clinical results.

Lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia are likely the same disease with different clinical appearances.

In this small study, topical minoxidil 2% was associated with an increase in normal hair shaft production in patients with Monilethrix without any reported side effects.

This study found that peripilar signs on the scalp are linked to perifollicular lymphocytic infiltrates in early androgenetic alopecia, detectable even in areas with high hair density.

This review discusses the histologic features of nonscarring alopecia and highlights the importance of clinical-pathological correlation for accurate diagnosis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study analyzed trichoscopic features of discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp in skin of color and found distinct patterns based on clinical morphology.

This study reports that generalized discoid lupus erythematosus is a recognized canine variant of cutaneous lupus erythematosus, resembling its human counterpart, with varied treatment responses and common relapses.

This review discusses the various skin lesions associated with COVID-19, which vary in type and severity, and reports that these lesions can appear before other symptoms and typically resolve spontaneously.

In this study, symmetrical acrokeratoderma was observed to frequently occur alongside ichthyosis vulgaris, with no specific therapy available for the condition.

This study found that DPCP treatment led to cosmetically acceptable hair regrowth in 38% of patients with chronic severe alopecia areata, while adding 5% minoxidil showed no significant clinical benefit.

This study found that T-regulatory cells, specifically the FOXP3 CD39 subset, were significantly reduced in both circulation and hair follicles of alopecia areata patients compared to healthy subjects, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

This study found that nonscarring alopecia in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus may indicate higher disease activity, as evidenced by specific histological and immunofluorescence changes.

In this study, the authors observed that cell-mediated immune mechanisms may be involved in the pathogenesis of benign follicular mucinosis, based on the cellular and immunological characteristics of two patient cases.

Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss with no cure and treatments that often don't work well.

This study found that after 24 weeks of DPCP treatment for alopecia areata, there was a significant increase in new capillaries and hair regrowth detectable by videocapillaroscopy.

This review discusses the role of perifollicular macrophages in hair growth and suggests targeting them could be relevant for managing hair growth disorders, but reports no new results.

This review summarizes the pathophysiology and immune mechanisms of inflammatory skin diseases like psoriasis and atopic dermatitis, highlighting the therapeutic potential of targeted immunotherapies, but reports no new clinical results.

This review examines the interconnected processes of atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata, highlighting shared immune imbalances, genetic factors, and microbiome influences, while analyzing current and emerging treatments and identifying gaps in understanding these overlapping conditions.

This article reviews the relationship between the skin and the immune system and discusses how skin manifestations can indicate immunodeficiencies but reports no new research findings.

This research found evidence of inflammatory involvement in androgenetic alopecia, with higher deposition of certain immune components in the scalp of affected patients compared to those without baldness.

This comprehensive literature review highlighted that lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, both primary scarring alopecias, are diagnosed via scalp biopsy, with no standardized treatments available, necessitating individualized therapeutic approaches based on patient characteristics.

This review emphasized the significance of biliary fibrosis in hepatobiliary disorders, exploring its clinical manifestations, epidemiology, and cellular factors, and provided insights into current clinical trials and strategies for managing fibrosis-related cholangiopathies.

This study found that total serum IgE levels were elevated in patients with alopecia areata compared to controls, suggesting a possible involvement of IgE and Th2 cytokines in its pathogenesis.

This study found that trichoscopy is crucial for distinguishing lupus erythematosus-specific alopecia from alopecia areata, leading to more accurate diagnoses and better outcomes for patients.

This study aimed to document and compare the prevalence and characteristics of hair loss in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, noting the differences in trichoscopic and histopathologic evaluations between those with and without alopecia. Results are not reported.

This review discusses the clinical features of SARS in children, noting milder symptoms compared to adults, and emphasizes the importance of ongoing monitoring for long-term effects; it reports no new treatment findings.

This study reports previously unreported nail features in Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, specifically recurrent onychomadesis of all 20 nails linked to systemic illness.

This study observed that specific trichoscopic features like white peripilar signs, scalp pigmentation, and focal atrichia are associated with advanced female pattern hair loss in Fitzpatrick skin type III patients.

This article describes a rare case of alopecia with both scarring and non-scarring features, combining histologic signs of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia with select immunologic features of alopecia areata.
