This study introduced laser particles as a new imaging probe capable of real-time tracking of thousands of individual cells in 3D tumor models, suggesting potential for advanced single-cell analyses.

This study identified a novel mutation and confirmed a previous mutation in the LIPH gene in a woman with autosomal recessive woolly hair, expanding the mutation spectrum for this condition.

Treat limited stage small cell lung cancer with chemotherapy and radiation, and consider preventive brain radiation for better survival chances.

In this case study, a woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia and associated hyperpigmentation showed significant improvement in skin pigmentation and itch after 9 months of treatment with mycophenolate mofetil, highlighting its therapeutic potential for lichen planus pigmentosus linked to this condition.

This study found that oral retinoid therapy may provide clinical improvement in a small percentage of patients with treatment-resistant lichen planopilaris, although it is not commonly used as a first-line treatment.

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

In this study, a topical cream containing 3% lactic acid ferment lysate (VHProbi ® MixP) was found to significantly reduce sebum, porphyrin levels, and pore size, while increasing hydration and improving skin texture in participants with oily skin over a 60-day period.

This study found that lichen planopilaris is a common cause of scalp scarring alopecia in adults and has distinctive clinical features that help differentiate it from other similar conditions.

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 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 case study describes a rare instance of subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus on the chin, highlighting the effectiveness of using dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy for accurate diagnosis and monitoring, which led to significant lesion improvement with corticosteroid and immunomodulatory treatment over 19 weeks.

This study found that in lichen planopilaris, the basement membrane zone of the hair follicles exhibited disrupted and discontinuous staining patterns, potentially contributing to scarring and irreversible hair loss.

This study found that in immunodeficient mice lacking T cells, certain innate lymphoid cell subsets increased and influenced the hair growth cycle, with specific ILC subsets shown to promote anagen, the active phase of hair growth.

This study found that female patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia are significantly more likely to have systemic lupus erythematosus compared to controls.

This case series reports that home use of intense pulsed light devices may effectively reduce hair burden and prevent recurrence of pilonidal disease in patients unable to regularly attend clinic sessions.

This case series found that trichoscopy and biopsy of the scalp in individuals with skin of color identified concurrent lichen planopilaris and female androgenic alopecia, highlighting the importance of comprehensive scalp evaluation to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.

In this case report, narrowband-UVB phototherapy successfully treated a rare instance of Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, a variant of lichen planopilaris, as investigated through non-invasive imaging techniques.

This case report describes a 7-year-old child with linear lupus panniculitis of the scalp, treated successfully with a combination of hydroxychloroquine, topical and intralesional steroids, and a topical calcineurin inhibitor.

This study found that combining low-fluence Q-switched Nd: YAG laser and intense pulsed light led to faster and more effective melasma treatment compared to using the laser alone, though recurrence still occurred.

In this case study, a transition to the MEK inhibitor trametinib successfully stabilized disease and reduced toxicity in a patient with refractory kaposiform lymphangiomatosis after prolonged sirolimus and steroid treatment.

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 linc-PINT expression was significantly decreased in patients with atrial fibrillation compared to healthy controls, while several TGF-β signaling genes were increased, suggesting a potential role in heart arrhythmias' pathogenesis.

This article highlights the critical need to accurately differentiate between seborrheic dermatitis and lichen planus before performing hair transplants, due to the potential impact on graft survival and transplant outcomes.

This study reports that folliculitis decalvans and lichen planopilaris phenotypic spectrum is an underdiagnosed form of cicatricial alopecia, potentially treatable with anti-inflammatory drugs used for lichen planopilaris.

This article discusses the mini-lift as a cosmetic procedure for minor cheek and neck laxity, emphasizing its benefits like quicker recovery and minimal incisions, but provides no new clinical data.

This descriptive longitudinal study conducted in a Kolkata hospital found that intense pulsed light treatment significantly improved hirsutism in patients, as evaluated by trichoscopy and visual analog scores, demonstrating its effectiveness and safety for hair removal, independent of medical treatment.

Wearing a wig caused a woman's skin condition to worsen due to pressure from the wig's fasteners.

Chitosan/LiCl composite scaffolds help heal deep skin wounds better.

In this study, the researchers found that a 28-day topical treatment with a postbiotic ferment complex notably altered the scalp microbiome in women with sensitive scalps, increasing certain bacterial species and decreasing others, while also reportedly alleviating symptoms of sensitive skin syndrome in all participants.

This study found that LSD1 is crucial for embryonic skin barrier formation in mice, revealing its significant role in epidermal development and suggesting its potential as a target in skin diseases with barrier defects.
