This case report describes a 47-year-old patient with scarred alopecia diagnosed as discoid lupus erythematosus, where treatment with multiple medications led to clinical improvement.

This study found that lupus discoid lesions on the scalp are more common in females and are associated with a higher incidence of other autoimmune diseases compared to lesions in other areas.

This study concluded that dermoscopy enhances the diagnostic capability for cicatricial alopecia beyond clinical inspection and identified novel dermoscopic features such as blue-grey dots.

This study suggests that fractional infrared technology may effectively improve cervical skin laxity by enhancing dermal thickness without adverse effects in a small pilot group.

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 found that while the CLASI is generally useful for assessing disease activity and damage in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, it may not accurately reflect all subtypes, indicating a need for revision.

In this systematic review, researchers found that individuals with lichen sclerosus have a higher prevalence of comorbidities like vitiligo, alopecia areata, and cardiovascular diseases compared to non-affected controls, and suggest screening all LS patients for cardiovascular risk factors and other diseases.

This study identified novel LSS mutations implicated in hypotrichosis simplex with or without neurodevelopmental abnormalities, highlighting the need for careful evaluation of synonymous mutations' potential pathogenic effects.

This study observed that trichoscopy of long-lasting lesions in a chronic stage revealed specific features such as absence of follicular openings, cicatricial patches, and thick arborizing vessels.

This case report documents the rare occurrence of lipedematous scalp in two black Caribbean female siblings, suggesting a potential genetic factor and noting psychiatric co-morbidities as novel associations.

This study found that the new SLICC classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus were more sensitive and resulted in fewer misclassifications than the current ACR criteria, although they had lower specificity.

In this study, LC-OCT imaging was found to noninvasively identify specific features of cicatricial alopecia due to lupus erythematosus, such as hyperreflective collagen fibers, which may aid in distinguishing it from other types of scarring alopecia.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl with childhood discoid lupus erythematosus, where treatment led to reversal of scarring alopecia and hair regrowth.

This overview describes the Dermatologic Surgery journal's comprehensive focus on cosmetic and reconstructive skin procedures, but it reports no new research findings.

In this study, LC-OCT was used to distinguish between subtypes of scarring alopecia, laying the groundwork for further hypotheses and future research in larger and longitudinal studies to examine treatment responses.

In this case report, a patient with a history of discoid lupus erythematosus experienced an exacerbation of the condition after topical immunotherapy for alopecia areata, suggesting contact dermatitis as a potential trigger.

This review discusses the applications of confocal laser scanning microscopy in visualizing fluorescent compounds within the skin, noting its potential for tracking drug carriers and enhancing penetration studies, but reports no new results.

This case report details the dermoscopic features of bilateral cutaneous larva migrans in an adult male, noting similarities with lymphangioma circumscriptum but highlights that typical dermoscopy magnification may be insufficient for diagnosis.

This study reports a rare case of two siblings with lipoedematous scalp, suggesting a possible genetic link that warrants further investigation.

This study found that Ldh activity in hair follicle stem cell-mediated squamous cell carcinoma is not necessary for tumorigenesis, as its modulation did not affect the cancer's development or characteristics.

This article discusses the SLICC's revision and validation of the ACR SLE classification criteria to enhance clinical relevance and integrate recent immunological insights, but does not report new clinical results.

This review discusses the spectrum of lupus erythematosus conditions, specifically focusing on the different forms of Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus, and reports no clinical results.

In this study, Wang et al. (2022) found that in patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus, chronic lesions contained more senescent progenitor cells, marked by p16 and p21, than subacute lesions, suggesting a link between disease chronicity and cellular senescence.

This article discusses the potential misdiagnosis issues in cutaneous manifestations of lupus erythematosus and reports no new research findings.

This correspondence describes two patients with both epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type, and loose anagen hair syndrome, an association not previously reported in the literature.

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 article discusses revised SLE classification criteria by the SLICC and reports no new research results.

This review examines the trichoscopic characteristics of scalp DLE and LPP, correlating these findings with histopathological data, but provides no new clinical results.

This study found that combining optical clearing methods with light-sheet fluorescence microscopy allows detailed 3D visualization of normal and pathological human skin biopsies, revealing differences in epidermal thickness and volume.

In this case report, a 53-year-old woman with Little-Graham-Piccardi-Lassueur-Syndrome responded well to a treatment regimen of hydroxychloroquine, methotrexate, and other therapies, effectively halting the progression of this rare dermatosis characterized by alopecia and hyperkeratotic eruptions.
