This study suggests that fish oil, specifically its components EPA and DHA, play a beneficial role in promoting skin health by supporting epidermal growth and reducing proinflammatory cytokines.

This paper describes that approximately 80% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus develop skin changes over time, highlighting the prevalence of skin involvement in this autoimmune condition.

This review concludes that the two-stage technique of hair transplantation with prior fat grafting appears effective for treating scalp scars, based on existing literature.

This study reviewed and reclassified 37 cases of primary scarring alopecia using histological methods to achieve more accurate diagnoses within subtypes like lupus erythematosus and lichen planopilaris.

This review covers skin manifestations in chronic kidney disease, highlighting their impact on quality of life, associated prognostic indicators, and available treatments, but provides no new clinical results.

In this retrospective study at a New Delhi children's hospital, the authors found that pediatric skin diseases were most commonly infections and infestations, with bacterial infections and scabies leading, followed by eczemas.

This paper reviews the links between COVID-19 infection and cutaneous, oral, and periodontal lesions but reports no new clinical findings.

This case study reported promising hair regrowth in a child with morphea en coup de sabre using fractional CO2 laser-assisted exosome therapy, but further research is needed to validate these findings due to its single-subject design.

This study highlights the need for further research on dysregulated immune and fibrotic pathways in morphea to better understand its pathogenesis and develop new biomarkers and therapies.

This research highlights the essential role of skin findings in diagnosing and managing rheumatic diseases, emphasizing their importance in early recognition, classification, and treatment planning, which requires collaboration between rheumatologists and dermatologists.

Blocking DPP4 can help prevent fat loss and skin fibrosis.

This scoping review reports that microneedling appears to be beneficial as an adjunctive therapy for cutaneous manifestations of autoimmune diseases like alopecia areata and vitiligo, improving outcomes when paired with other treatments, though evidence is limited and further research is needed.

Excimer laser therapy can be an alternative for treating superficial morphea when topical steroids don't work.

This report describes a successful case where repeated autologous lipostructure followed by hair transplantation improved scarring alopecia in a patient with morphea en coup de sabre, suggesting potential benefits from this combined approach.

This research paper reviews the mechanisms and management of non-biologic immunosuppressive drugs used in dermatology, highlighting their safety profiles and handling during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and vaccination, but does not report specific results on these aspects.

This study reports a case of complete hair regrowth in lichen planopilaris after 12 weeks of treatment with ixekizumab, suggesting its potential as a targeted therapy.

This article describes the first reported case of isolated linear discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp, suggesting it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of linear scarring alopecia.

This study analyzed FAERS data to explore the risk and onset patterns of autoimmune skin diseases associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors, finding a strong association particularly with bullous pemphigoid and emphasizing the need for vigilant monitoring of these adverse effects.

Plaquenil can cause a severe skin reaction called AGEP, requiring prompt diagnosis and treatment.

This review by two dermatologists suggests that hair on the human scalp may protect against skin cancer not just physically, but by enabling IL-17 immune surveillance, with hair loss potentially leading to increased tumor growth due to reduced immunosurveillance.

In this review, the authors propose that hair on the scalp may protect against non-melanoma skin cancer by maintaining an IL-17 biased immunosurveillance, with hair loss potentially increasing the risk of skin cancer due to disrupted immune monitoring.

This study reviewed pathology reports of patients with multiple myeloma and found that skin biopsies commonly show graft-versus-host disease, drug-related lesions, and Sweet's syndrome, especially related to transplantation timing.

MicroRNA-21 could help diagnose and treat skin fibrosis.

This review suggests that 308 nm excimer therapy may offer a well-tolerated non-pharmacologic option for alopecia areata, with more limited evidence for its effectiveness in lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This study describes how comparing the visual characteristics of dermatological conditions to baked goods can aid in memorization and understanding, providing memorable analogies for both diagnosis and patient education.

This review discusses the use of botulinum toxin for hair and scalp disorders and reports mixed findings, with most studies showing mild or non-significant effects on hair growth.

This review discusses the role of the endocannabinoid system in skin health and disease, highlighting its potential for future research and applications, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that inhibiting TGF-β receptors in adult dermal fibroblasts restored their function and increased resistance to Staphylococcus aureus infection by enhancing their adipogenic and antimicrobial capabilities.

This case report describes two instances of rare linear alopecia on the occipital scalp, associated histologically with lupus erythematosus profundus, despite resembling alopecia areata clinically.

This study found that MED1 plays a role in maintaining keratinocyte quiescence and hair follicle stem cell populations, as its absence in mice led to increased keratinocyte proliferation and reduced stem cell numbers.
