This phase 1 study reported that after administering supratherapeutic doses of cortexolone 17α‐propionate, a topical antiandrogen intended for hair loss treatment, there was no effect on the QTc interval, indicating no measurable cardiac safety concerns in the concentration range tested.

This study concluded that among 11 formulations tested, the herbal shampoo formulation H2, containing fermented Cyclea peltata, had superior organoleptic and physicochemical properties.

This study found that Clinopodium bolivianum essential oil, particularly in combing cream, demonstrated notable antioxidant activity, with potential applications as a natural antioxidant in cosmetic formulations.

This study reviewed cases of Graham–Little-Piccardi–Lassueur syndrome and found that topical treatments were generally ineffective, while systemic therapies like prednisone, hydroxychloroquine, and isotretinoin led to partial hair regrowth and disease stabilization, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and systemic therapy to improve outcomes.

This study found that exposing dermal papilla cells to sub-lethal doses of colchicine releases histone H4, which inhibits cell growth and decreases alkaline phosphatase activity, potentially explaining colchicine-induced hair loss.

This study found that systemic mycophenolate mofetil and topical clobetasol were equally effective at reducing lichen planopilaris activity over six months, but satisfaction differed between the treatments.

In this study, intralesional platelet-rich plasma was found to be a beneficial and safe treatment option for oral lichen planus, an inflammatory disease affecting the oral mucosa.

This study reports a case of Indralupta (Alopecia Areata) successfully treated using Ayurvedic methods including Prachhan karma, Lepa, and Shirodhara, offering an alternative to conventional treatments like minoxidil and steroids, which may have adverse effects.

This study suggests that combining tranexamic acid with low-dose oral retinoids may offer moderate to good improvements for lichen plan pigmentosus, although larger trials are needed for confirmation.

This review discusses the clinical and histopathologic features of pediatric lichen planopilaris and reports therapeutic responses to various treatments; the condition should be considered in cases of patchy hair loss in children.

This case report describes a 52-year-old woman who developed retiform purpura after using cocaine likely adulterated with levamisole, highlighting the need for levamisole detection in such cases.

This overview discusses primary cicatricial alopecias, focusing on lichen planopilaris, and highlights the challenges in treatment and the progressive nature of hair loss despite symptom management, without providing new clinical results.

This study reports that Lichen planus pigmentosus is present in Moroccan patients but remains challenging to treat, with only some experiencing complete resolution of lesions after therapy.

This study developed an effective and reliable HPTLC method for the simultaneous measurement of linoleic acid and oleanolic acid in Eclipta alba.

This study reported that 80% of patients with non-scarring alopecia showed a clinical cure after treatment with unactivated platelet leukocyte autoplasma.

This case study reported a rare occurrence of lepromatous leprosy with Lucio phenomenon in a 50-year-old Indonesian living in Malaysia, highlighting the necessity for primary care practitioners, even in non-endemic areas, to recognize this serious leprosy reaction to prevent complications and transmission.

This abstract lists numerous dermatological side effects and reactions associated with various medications but reports no new research findings.

This study found that switching patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension from benzalkonium chloride-latanoprost to preservative-free latanoprost maintained intraocular pressure control and improved tolerability, potentially enhancing treatment adherence and quality of life.

This systematic review suggests that platelet-rich plasma may significantly improve symptoms in oral lichen planus with effects comparable to corticosteroids, although more research is needed to confirm these findings.

In this study, researchers reported that applying topical 7.5% dapsone led to a significant decline in lichen planopilaris activity within a month and a sustained two-year remission in a patient intolerant to other treatments, suggesting dapsone as a promising alternative for managing this condition.

This report details two cases of Lichen spinulosus in the submental area, treated effectively and safely with topical tacalcitol cream.
