In this case report and literature review, researchers identified a novel mutation in the CLDN1 gene linked to neonatal ichthyosis-sclerosing cholangitis syndrome and found that its phenotype varies widely, suggesting a multidisciplinary approach is crucial for management.

The authors concluded that low energy laser therapy may serve as a useful complementary treatment for skin diseases such as lichen planus, infectious finger pulpits, scalp alopecia, and crural ulcers.

This case report documents a rare instance of a female Indian patient with borderline-lepromatous leprosy experiencing generalized leprous alopecia of the scalp and lepromatous lymphadenitis of the suboccipital node.

This study predicted that 6-hydroxy genistein, coreximine, and scoulerine from Dadap leaves may act as anti-alopecia agents by interacting with JAK2, but further in-vivo testing is needed.

In this study, baricitinib improved the resolution of arthritis or rash in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, but outcomes for skin involvement like alopecia were not reported.

Patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus have a higher risk of skin cancer and other cancers.

This case report illustrates that prompt diagnosis and management of myositis, a rare manifestation of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, can lead to favorable patient outcomes, as demonstrated by symptom resolution and normal electromyocardiography findings.

This review discusses the role of jumonji family proteins in chromatin regulation and development, highlighting their involvement in transcriptional repression and histone demethylation, but reports no new experimental findings.

This case report highlights a female patient with familial partial lipodystrophy who showed significant improvement in liver stiffness after starting leptin replacement therapy.

This case report details a child with a specific TNFAIP3 mutation manifesting as a severe SLE/SS phenotype, expanding the known phenotype for this genetic variant.

This case study describes a 4-year-old boy with juvenile dermatomyositis whose severe subcutaneous edema resisted conventional treatment, necessitating aggressive immunosuppression for disease control.

This study found that in the Indian population, SLE patients with only skin manifestations often had a positive immunological profile, suggesting early identification of disease before systemic symptoms develop.

This study investigated a Labrador Retriever with paw pad hyperkeratosis and identified a unique de novo heterozygous missense variant in the GJB6 gene, suggesting its potential role in the condition, analogous to Clouston syndrome in humans, although differences between species may provide further insights.

This study identified the main secondary metabolites in Ziziphus jujuba seeds and confirmed that UPLC-MS/MS and GC-MS effectively demonstrate their pharmaceutical quality.

This study identified five mutations in the gene LSS in individuals with unexplained hypotrichosis simplex, highlighting a potential role of mislocalized LSS proteins in disrupting hair follicle biology.

This study explored the Belanger tradition, a Sasak hair-cleansing ritual using natural ingredients, and concluded that it combines cultural heritage with sustainable practices and scientifically supported benefits.

This study identified 15 Iranian patients with PLEC variants linked to various plectinopathies and highlighted a novel association between a homozygous nonsense variant in PLEC and a rare combination of disorders including EB pruriginosa, muscular dystrophy, and congenital myasthenic syndrome.

This study found that a lentiviral array of reporters can identify lineage-specific promoters and pathways in mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, aiding in the prediction of signaling pathway effects.

In this study, high doses of Lepidium sativum seeds extract were reported to cause toxicity and tissue damage in animals, suggesting the need for careful use under medical supervision.

This case report describes a patient with untreated lepromatous leprosy developing Lucio's phenomenon, highlighting difficulties in distinguishing it from erythema nodosum leprosum with vasculonecrotic lesions.

This case study reports that a combination of levetiracetam, zonisamide, and lamotrigine effectively eliminated seizures in a patient with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, after initial treatments failed.

This case report emphasizes the need to consider Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors in the differential diagnosis of adnexal masses in patients with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, noting that these tumors can present unusually with bilateral adnexal involvement.

This article outlines opportunities for academic growth provided by the Indian Association of Dermatologists, Venereologists, and Leprologists, reporting no new research findings.

This thesis found that in lupus nephritis, traditional classification criteria may not apply to patients with glomerular deposits without clinical SLE, indicating distinct prognostic and diagnostic challenges.

This study found that the Cutaneous Lupus Disease Area and Severity Index (CLASI) is correlated with both physician-assessed and patient-reported outcomes in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, particularly highlighting concerns about body image in visible areas.

This study identified biallelic variants in the LSS gene as a possible genetic cause of palmoplantar keratoderma-congenital alopecia syndrome type 2, highlighting the role of cholesterol synthesis in skin cornification.

This study suggests that Janus kinase inhibitors may offer a potential treatment option for refractory lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, showing positive response rates between 42% and 100%, though evidence quality is low.

This study reviewed the initial clinical presentation of SLE patients in Oman, revealing diverse symptoms and highlighting the importance of nationwide collaboration for effective management of the condition.
