In this study, researchers found that among women with frontal fibrosing alopecia and hyperpigmented facial lesions, most cases were diagnosed with lichen planus pigmentosus, while some were identified as melasma or drug-induced.

This case study reports that an infant with maple syrup urine disease developed acrodermatitis dysmetabolica due to low isoleucine levels, and increasing the isoleucine dose improved the condition.

This case report is the first to associate NEMO syndrome with systemic lupus erythematosus, suggesting a potential role for NF-kB essential modulator in the pathogenesis of SLE.

This study found that the E3 ligases NEDD4 and NEDD4L regulate intestinal stem cell priming by degrading the LGR5 receptor, and their loss leads to increased Wnt activation and crypt proliferation, which in turn accelerates intestinal tumor progression in mice.

This article discusses the potential of combining growth factor therapy with LLLT LED therapy for hair regrowth in androgenetic alopecia, but it does not report new clinical results.

This study developed a biodegradable nanofibrous biofilm that attracts skin-related cells and accelerates blood vessel formation, potentially improving skin wound healing.

This study found that autophagy is impaired in Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome-associated renal tumors and identified that the FLCN protein interacts with key autophagy components regulated by ULK1.

This study evaluated the use of low-level laser therapy for treating androgenic alopecia in adults, finding it a promising and safe at-home option for stimulating hair growth compared to sham devices, though further research is needed to confirm its clinical effectiveness.

This study developed and validated a method using UPLC-PDA and LC-Q-TOF/MS to identify and measure prohibited substances in dietary supplements, showing reliable detection of compounds like minoxidil and finasteride.

Stopping methotrexate might reverse lymphoma-like conditions in some patients.

This study suggests that linalool, a common allergen in personal care products, may contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia pathogenesis by triggering immune responses and depleting hair follicle stem cells, especially in sensitized individuals.

This report describes a case of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution in a postmenopausal woman, highlighting its distinction from other forms of lichen planopilaris and pattern hair loss.

This study found that nano-sized lipid particles improved the skin accumulation and retention of dexamethasone compared to a base cream, suggesting potential benefits for inflammatory skin disease treatment.

In this study, researchers identified significant signals indicating previously unrecognized risks of lipid metabolism abnormalities for several drugs, urging the need for better monitoring and label updates.

In this study, the researchers reported that the safety profile was similar across all DMARD treatment regimens for early rheumatoid arthritis, but the most severe side effects occurred in the leflunomide group.

This study found that patients with cutaneous lichen planus had a higher risk of metabolic syndrome, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension compared to controls.

This review discusses the mixed evidence and high risk of bias in studies on low-level light therapy for treating androgenetic alopecia and calls for rigorous randomized controlled trials to assess its efficacy.

This case report highlights that lipedematous scalp and alopecia areata may coexist and that precise diagnosis requires histopathologic examination.

Dermoscopy quickly and accurately diagnosed a rare hair disorder in a 12-year-old girl.

This article reviews low-level light therapy for various types of hair loss and reports no new clinical results; the authors note its safety and advantages but lack data on individual treatment response.

This study found that low-level laser therapy accelerates skin regeneration in gamma-irradiated mice and enhances the biostimulatory effect on hair follicles.

A 72-year-old man was diagnosed with a rare skin form of Rosai-Dorfman disease after years of misdiagnosis.

This study identified the rough coat mutation in mice, but found that LOXL is not the causal gene, although its downregulation might contribute to related phenotypic changes.

In this prospective observational study of 96 dermatomyositis patients, 47 showed scalp involvement, with significant symptoms like scalp inflammation, itching, and hair loss linked to myositis-specific antibodies. The study highlighted unique dermatopathological features in the scalp and emphasized the considerable morbidity caused by scalp dermatomyositis.

This review summarizes updated US prescribing information for teriflunomide in relapsing multiple sclerosis, highlighting its efficacy in reducing lesion activity and relapse rates but noting potential adverse effects such as headache and diarrhea.

This study found that the oral IRAK4-inhibitors BAY 1834845 and BAY 1830839 reduced skin inflammation and systemic inflammatory responses in healthy volunteers, showing similar pharmacodynamic effects to prednisolone when challenged with topical imiquimod and intravenous LPS.

This study describes a family with loose anagen hair syndrome associated with macular dystrophy, suggesting this combination may represent a new disease entity among ectodermal dysplasias.

This study concluded that combining platelet-rich plasma with low-level light therapy was more effective than combining it with minoxidil or using light therapy alone for treating androgenetic alopecia.
