This review discusses the role of trichoscopy in diagnosing lichen planopilaris and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize early recognition to potentially prevent permanent scarring.

This review systematically examined recent advancements in spironolactone-loaded nanocarriers, revealing that lipid and vesicular nanoparticles enhance bioavailability and skin penetration for treating androgen-dependent disorders, but highlighted the need for further clinical studies to optimize their use.

This study describes a distinct variant of lupus panniculitis in East Asians, characterized by reversible, linear alopecia along Blaschko’s lines on the scalp, without systemic lupus erythematosus associations.

This study identified a new dermoscopic feature, plexiform erythema, in lichen planopilaris lesions, suggesting it may indicate active disease and the potential need for more aggressive treatment.

This article reviews the characteristics and classification criteria of cutaneous lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical findings.

This study reports that cannabinoid receptor type 1 may influence psoriasis development by modulating laminin-511 expression, suggesting a potential target for treatment.

This article discusses the use of low-level laser therapy for hair regrowth in men and women but reports no new clinical results; it reviews types of lasers and evidence from animal and human studies.

Women in Australia report different signs of facial aging compared to women in the US, UK, and Canada; men with Lichen planopilaris often have hormonal abnormalities and thyroid disease.

This article reviews the basics of hair follicle biology, laser/tissue interactions, and hirsutism and hypertrichosis causes, discussing the long-pulsed alexandrite laser's role in hair reduction without reporting new clinical results.

This report presents the early development of the Lupus Foundation of America's LFA-REAL™ patient-reported instrument, designed to enhance evaluation of lupus disease activity by combining patient and physician assessments.

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 a nanostructured lipid carrier gel containing Minoxidil and Finasteride met desired criteria for stability and performance, suggesting it may be an effective topical treatment for hair loss, especially in extreme conditions.

This article corrects a duplication error in a previous publication and reports no new research findings.

In this review, recent advances in long-acting microneedle-based transdermal drug delivery systems are outlined, highlighting biodegradable polymers like PLA, PLGA, and PCL for sustained release and discussing challenges in clinical translation such as consistency in manufacturing and validating long-term efficacy and safety.

This study found that a transdermal drug delivery system using nanostructured lipid carriers and polymeric microneedles for β-sitosterol significantly enhanced hair growth in testosterone-induced alopecia rats, suggesting potential for treating androgenic alopecia.

In this study, autologous platelet concentrates and topical steroids similarly reduced lesion size, Thongprasom scale, and pain in oral lichen planus patients, suggesting autologous platelet concentrates as a potential alternative treatment.

Recognizing IPPP is crucial to prevent misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatments.

This letter to the editor provides no new results or studies on dermatological topics; it may address previous articles or observations.

In this study, FOL-026, a peptide based on osteopontin, was shown to promote angiogenesis and stimulate vascular cell proliferation and migration through neuropilin-1, similar to VEGF, suggesting potential therapeutic applications in vascular repair and angiogenesis-related conditions.

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 case report highlights that early signs like pili torti may precede lichen planopilaris in some patients, emphasizing the importance of timely intervention to prevent permanent hair loss.

In this study, Nano-Pulse Stimulation Therapy successfully cleared up to 91% of melanoma tumors in mice with less skin damage compared to cryoablation, which cleared up to 66% of tumors.

This study suggests that although data on JAK inhibitors for treating LPP and FFA is mainly from retrospective studies and case reports, these inhibitors may offer a new treatment option, particularly for challenging cases.

Pressure from surgical headrests can cause temporary hair loss in liver donors.

This study found that neprilysin (NEP) activity and expression play a significant role in regulating the hair cycle in rats, with a specific inhibitor suppressing hair growth in mice.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers with more soybean phosphatidylcholine provided better skin retention and follicular targeting for diphencyprone compared to other formulations and controls.

This study reported that nanostructured lipid carriers with melatonin improved hair density and decreased hair loss in patients with androgenic alopecia, suggesting a promising direction for future treatments.

This review discusses the potential of Lansium domesticum as a herbal medicine, summarizing its traditional uses, nutritional value, bioactivities, and related nanoparticles and pharmaceutical formulations, but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses potential EMT-targeting drugs for treating lichen planopilaris and emphasizes the need for clinical trials, as current evidence is limited to individual cases or case series.
