In this study, intravital microscopy in live mice showed that apoptosis in hair follicle regression may be driven by apoptotic cells inducing neighboring cell death, with stem cells likely providing a pro-survival signal.

A young woman with a rare fungal infection showed significant improvement after treatment with antifungal medication.

This case series observed the diagnostic challenges of secondary syphilis, highlighting diverse presentations such as rashes and systemic symptoms that can mimic other conditions, underscoring the importance of dermatological review, serological testing, and interdisciplinary care for effective treatment and management.

In this study, researchers observed monochorionic diamniotic twins with discordant clinical phenotypes, where one had high-grade trisomy 12p mosaicism in certain tissues, while the other showed confined mosaicism likely due to twin-to-twin transfusion.

This case study describes an 85-year-old man's intermittent fever being ultimately diagnosed as Babesia infection after considering his travel history and diagnosing splenic infarcts, highlighting the importance of thorough patient history for accurate diagnosis.

This report describes two cases of Majocchi's granuloma in immunocompromised patients, highlighting the importance of considering this condition in such populations.

This case report describes a rare instance of tuberculous lymphadenitis in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the potential link between immune suppression and tuberculosis risk.

This study examined monoclonal antibodies LT-1, LT-2, and LT-7, finding they can effectively detect certain antigens on T and B cells involved in various lymphoproliferative diseases, aiding in the diagnosis of both acute and chronic lymphoid neoplasias.

This case report highlights the challenge of distinguishing between neuropsychiatric lupus and rituximab-associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in systemic lupus erythematosus patients, emphasizing the importance of early recognition and careful management.

Acute leukemias with the Philadelphia chromosome may be biphenotypic, and identifying this is important for proper treatment.

This study provides quantitative evidence that secondary syphilis is highly endemic in Cali, Colombia, and many untreated patients have high numbers of circulating Treponema pallidum spirochetes.

This case report details a 21-year-old female with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed tuberculous lymphadenitis, illustrating how immunosuppressive therapy in SLE patients can lead to such infections.

In this case study, a 53-year-old female with multiple autoimmune symptoms was diagnosed with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, confirmed by specific antibodies, and showed significant clinical improvement after one year of treatment.

This review of 1360 scalp biopsy specimens revealed that 12.5% of cases involved multifactorial alopecia, highlighting the diagnostic complexity of multiple forms of alopecia present in single biopsies.

This case report highlights the importance of considering lupus pneumonitis as a differential diagnosis for respiratory symptoms in systemic lupus erythematosus, especially in areas endemic to tuberculosis.

This case study reports that secondary milia linked to bullous erysipelas in a 64-year-old woman's leg resolved nearly completely with topical 0.05% tretinoin cream.

This case report describes a 21-year-old female with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed tuberculous lymphadenitis, highlighting the risk of TB in patients with weakened immune systems on long-term immunosuppressive therapy.

This case report details the dermoscopic features of bilateral cutaneous larva migrans in an adult male, noting similarities with lymphangioma circumscriptum but highlights that typical dermoscopy magnification may be insufficient for diagnosis.

This paper contains author contact information and disclosures without reporting new research findings or results.

This report describes a rare case of pili multigemini, where multiple hair shafts arise from a single follicle, discovered during an examination for folliculitis on a patient's abdomen.

In this study, a 38-year-old male with syphilis-related mixed pattern alopecia showed marked hair regrowth and resolution of postauricular lymphadenopathy after treatment with benzathine penicillin, suggesting that lymph node and hair examinations, along with trichoscopy, can aid in the diagnosis of alopecia syphilitica.

This case study reports a rare instance of sacroiliitis due to Brucella melitensis in a patient who experienced symptom relief after a 12-week treatment with doxycycline and rifampicin.
