This case report details a 17-year-old girl with systemic lupus erythematosus and recurrent infections linked to a complete isolated Clq deficiency.

This tool was developed to enhance reproducibility and sensitivity in measuring partial hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients, particularly those undergoing JAK inhibitor therapy, using scalp photographs.

This study explored a mother and daughter with loose anagen hair syndrome linked to wooly hair, identifying an intronic variant in the KRT71 gene that affects hair keratin splicing, thus broadening the spectrum of KRT71-related disorders.

This article describes the various presentations of oral lichen planus and notes it often requires topical or systemic immunosuppressive treatment for associated discomfort, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that oral administration of Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris H61 to aged mice was associated with reduced bone loss, fewer skin ulcers, and less hair loss compared with controls.

This study found that lymphatic vessels in mice are important for hair follicle development and organization, as their depletion blocks hair growth.

This paper proposes a systematic approach to evaluating scalp itch using the SCALLP acronym and highlights the importance of classifying cases based on the presence of dermatological lesions and hair loss, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the potential mechanisms and evidence supporting low-level laser therapy for stimulating hair growth in men and women, while noting its safety and effectiveness but needing further study on specific parameters.

This case report highlights a female patient with familial partial lipodystrophy who showed significant improvement in liver stiffness after starting leptin replacement therapy.

This study suggests that topical minoxidil may be a promising treatment for isolated autosomal recessive woolly hair due to LIPH mutations, although effective treatments are not yet established.

This case study reports an unusual presentation of erosive lichen planus of the scalp linked to hepatitis C in a patient, highlighting challenges in establishing a definitive correlation between the two conditions.

This paper reviews treatments for lichen planopilaris, including low-level laser therapy, but reports no new clinical results and highlights the need for further research.

In this study, oral finasteride therapy was associated with decreased DHT levels and improved hair loss severity in young male AGA patients, while hormonal changes influenced the curative effect.

In a laboratory study, Grateloupia elata extract demonstrated antioxidant and anti-aging effects by scavenging free radicals, inhibiting collagenase and elastase, increasing procollagen production, and reducing MMP-1 secretion, suggesting its potential use in functional cosmetics.

In this study, researchers identified a novel STS gene (c.287G > A; p.W96*) mutation in Pakistani individuals with X-linked ichthyosis, expanding the understanding of its genetic causes and aiding in genetic counseling.

This study found that glycolytic metabolism and lactate production are crucial for hair follicle stem cell activation, and manipulating these processes can stimulate the hair cycle.

This article reports a case of Netherton's syndrome that responded to 12% ammonium lactate lotion, suggesting potential treatment benefits for skin and allergic symptoms in this rare condition.

Hair transplants can risk reactivating lichen planopilaris, a scarring hair loss condition.

This case report details the first known instance of interferon-induced lichen planus in a seronegative HCV patient with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria and guidelines for managing loose anagen syndrome and differentiating it from non-scarring alopecias, but it reports no new clinical results.

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 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 study, a case of lichen amyloidosis on the scalp significantly improved with a 2-month topical treatment using clobetasol propionate/all-trans retinoic acid ointment.
