This case report highlights an unusual presentation of mycosis fungoides with photo-exacerbated lesions and a rare CD4+/CD8+ immunohistochemical phenotype, complicating diagnosis and treatment.

In this multicenter study, belimumab effectively reduced disease activity in systemic lupus erythematosus patients with joint and skin manifestations, showing significant improvement in acute and subacute skin types earlier than in chronic types, while no significant benefit was observed for nonspecific skin manifestations.

This case study of a 50-year-old woman with myotonic dystrophy and multiple basal cell carcinomas suggests there could be a genetic predisposition for certain cutaneous tumors in such patients.

Certain factors like being female, having high cholesterol, using Medicaid, and previous non-biologic treatments increase the risk of multiple biologic failures in psoriasis patients.

The authors concluded that steatocystoma multiplex is a rare dermatological condition with poor treatment outcomes, emphasizing the importance of early recognition and psychological support for affected individuals.

In this case report, a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome also had mononeuritis multiplex, and the authors suggest that an autoimmune mechanism may be involved based on steroid responsiveness and electrophysiological findings.

In this case report, the researchers highlighted the diagnostic challenge of Majocchi’s granuloma, a deep fungal infection that mimics other skin conditions and resists initial treatment, emphasizing the importance of considering it as a diagnosis even after failed topical antifungal therapies.

This case report illustrates that false-positive antibodies for Ehrlichia species may occur in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, complicating diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that while no predictive factors for response to vismodegib were identified, longer treatment duration was associated with a lower risk of relapse in basal cell carcinoma patients.

This section presents 70 multiple choice questions designed for haematology specialist trainees, covering complex clinical cases and their likely diagnoses, adverse events, and management advice.

In this report, researchers describe an unusual case of congenital pili multigemini, a hair follicle disorder, presenting on the eyebrow of a female infant, highlighting its rarity and atypical location.

This study reports a rare case of a 40-year-old woman with multiple calcified trichilemmal cysts, associated with alopecia universalis and suggesting a potential genetic link.

In this study, researchers observed that epidermal damage may increase susceptibility to Bacillus anthracis infection, allowing it access through hair follicles and the denuded dermis in mice.

This study found that bullous lupus erythematosus lesions in cutaneous lupus erythematosus showed distinctive histopathology with neutrophilic predominance and were associated with severe disease and higher extracutaneous involvement.

In this case report, a 16-year-old boy diagnosed with lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei showed improvement in facial granulomatous lesions with scarring after treatment with doxycycline, highlighting the potential need to explore treatment options for this condition characterized by asymptomatic papules on the central face.

This study found that eccrine duct dilation is significantly more frequent in cicatricial alopecias compared to noncicatricial alopecias, possibly due to the scarring process.

This study reported three cases of tinea corporis caused by Microsporum canis in a household, linked to a domestic cat, where genetic analysis suggested a familial transmission route.

This study revealed distinct cellular and transcriptomic differences among various subtypes of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, particularly highlighting characteristics unique to folliculotropic mycosis fungoides.

In this case report, a 31-year-old male with refractory sycosis barbae achieved complete remission after 4 months of treatment with bimekizumab, suggesting this dual inhibitor of interleukin-17A and IL-17F may be a promising therapy for this condition.

This article presents a collection of 70 multiple choice questions designed to assist haematology and core medical trainees with diagnostic and management skills, but it provides no new clinical findings.

This study found that 86% of patients with follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma were alive and nearly two-thirds remained in complete remission eight years after initial treatment with the radioimmunotherapy drug Bexxar.

In this case report, researchers described a 48-year-old man with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed a fungus ball (aspergilloma) within a tuberculosis cavity, a complication rarely reported in such patients, emphasizing the role of CT scans in diagnosis and the potential need for surgical intervention.

In this case report, researchers documented a 71-year-old woman with both alopecia areata and bullous pemphigoid who showed significant improvement using dupilumab after other treatments failed, highlighting its potential for autoimmune diseases with overlapping inflammatory mechanisms.

In this study, researchers observed temporary skin reactions at BCG vaccination sites following the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccine in five patients, suggesting underreported occurrences.

This case study reports that moth-eaten alopecia and a macular rash, along with positive histopathology and serology tests, indicated a diagnosis of secondary syphilis in a 24-year-old male patient.

This study found that BCG injection in COVID-19 convalescent adults reduced long COVID symptoms like hearing and cognitive issues but also led to increased hair loss in women at six months.

In this case study of a Beetal doe with severe skin lesions, the researchers diagnosed concurrent psoroptic mange and malasseziosis, and reported successful treatment with a combination of Ivermectin, antibiotics, and topical applications, leading to reduced skin lesions and new hair growth.

This study found that 95% of untreated advanced-stage follicular lymphoma patients responded to a single course of the Bexxar regimen, with 75% achieving complete remission and remaining disease-free for years.

This notice provides information about JAMA Dermatology's website usage policy, and no research findings are reported.

In this case report, researchers described an exceptionally rare occurrence of a 19-year-old female having three concurrent pilonidal sinuses at intermammary, umbilical, and sacrococcygeal locations, with surgical and conservative treatment leading to favorable healing outcomes.
