This case report details a 12-year-old boy from rural south India diagnosed with syringolymphoid hyperplasia, which presented with alopecia and anhidrosis.

This study observed an association between intense itching in anterior chest keloids and an increased density of nerve fibers in the epidermis, alongside elevated expression of the pruritus mediator substance P, though no difference was found in Langerhans cells related to pruritus, location, or region.

This study found no significant difference in the seroconversion rate of SARS-CoV2 IgG between patients with Immune Mediated Inflammatory diseases undergoing Targeted Immune-Modulating Therapies and those on conventional systemic treatment.

This study attempts to classify histomorphologic reactions to drugs to aid in diagnosing drug eruptions, which are common in hospitalized patients but lack specific diagnostic features.

This study identified "HTLV-1-associated lichenoid dermatitis" as a skin condition in HTLV-1-infected individuals, characterized by reactive eruptions associated with increased immunity toward infected CD4+ T cells.

In this study, researchers identified and characterized three specific enzymes in root hair cells that play crucial roles in controlling root hair growth by affecting cell wall properties during expansion.

This study reviewed evidence on cutaneous reactions and associated radiation doses from cranial or spinal neurointerventional procedures, finding that alopecia/epilation was most common and onset doses often aligned with known thresholds, highlighting the need for standardized dose reporting and follow-up.

This case report describes an 87-year-old woman diagnosed with type 3 autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome, highlighting the importance of recognizing and managing coexisting autoimmune conditions.
