This case report describes a 22-year-old woman whose initial manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus was vision-threatening vaso-occlusive retinopathy, highlighting the need for early identification and multidisciplinary treatment.

In this study, a case was reported where oral Minoxidil led to severe ocular complications, specifically Central Retinal Vein Occlusion and Cilioretinal Artery Occlusion, resulting in sudden vision loss which improved upon discontinuation.

This case report describes retinal occlusion and medial canthal swelling in a 64-year-old female following the injection of acellular porcine urinary bladder matrix for hair restoration, a previously unreported side effect.

In this study, researchers identified and characterized three specific enzymes in root hair cells that play crucial roles in controlling root hair growth by affecting cell wall properties during expansion.

In this study, 650 nm low-level red light therapy may cause a short-term transient increase in retinal fovea perfusion density in children, with no lasting effects observed at 1 hour post-treatment.

This case report described a patient with unilateral branch retinal artery occlusion due to previously undiagnosed systemic lupus erythematosus, where systemic immunotherapy led to significant visual improvement and resolution of macular edema.

This case report details a patient with Satoyoshi syndrome presenting with uveitis and impending central retinal vein occlusion, a previously undocumented complication, suggesting uveitis as a potential complication of the syndrome.

This case report describes a rare side effect of finasteride in a young male being treated for androgenic alopecia.

This study found that while the macular, retinal nerve fiber layer, and retinal layers' thickness were similar between alopecia areata patients and controls, the choroidal thickness was significantly thicker in the alopecia areata group, suggesting potential inflammation-related changes.

This study found that retinol palmitate treatment in patients with stage Ia non-small-cell lung cancer may reduce cancer relapses, but longer follow-up is needed to confirm its efficacy.

This study found that 4-(ethoxycarbophenyl) retinamide (RI) exhibited significantly lower acute, subacute, and chronic toxicity compared to other retinoids in mouse and rat models.

This review discusses the potential of using triads of repositioned medicines targeting multiple pathogenic mechanisms to prevent or delay retina degeneration, but reports no new results.

This study examines the effects of excessive or prolonged exposure to blue light on retinal function and highlights its potential health implications, noting that both photoreceptor and intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) are particularly sensitive to blue wavelengths.

This study found that in early retinal neurogenesis in mice, the transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling by controlling expression of pathway genes like the co-receptors Gas1 and Cdon.

This study suggests that inactivation of β-catenin is necessary for chick retina regeneration, as it allows cells to enter the cell cycle during injury and promotes regeneration without needing FGF2.

This study describes Coats disease as a non-hereditary, idiopathic retinopathy characterized by abnormal retinal vascular development, noting common symptoms such as leukokoria and strabismus, and emphasizes the use of imaging techniques to differentiate it from retinoblastoma.

This study found that the Lim-homeodomain transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling during early retinal neurogenesis in mice by controlling the expression of pathway genes in retinal progenitor cells.

This study found that the transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling in mouse retinal progenitor cells, mainly by controlling the expression of co-receptors essential for effective pathway activation during early retinal neurogenesis.

This study found that finasteride effectively reduced VEGF expression and microvascular development in the retinas of early diabetic rats.

In this study, researchers developed a mucoadhesive hydrogel ovule containing retinyl palmitate and curcumin for intravaginal use, showing controlled drug release, selectivity against cancerous HeLa cells, and non-toxicity to healthy cells, which may offer a potential treatment for cervical cancer.

In this study, the pharmacological action of dobutamine on rabbit retinae was found to be distinct from that of other dopamine analogs like apomorphine and N-methyl-dopamine.

This article discusses the importance of increasing awareness about specific adverse drug reactions, prevention methods, and the promotion of reporting ADRs to the FDA's MEDWATCH program; it reports no new results.

This study reviews the evolution and modifications of microneedle drug delivery systems, initially designed for percutaneous use, now expanded for targeting a variety of tissues and organs such as ocular, oral mucosal, and gastrointestinal, suggesting widespread future applicability.

This review discusses the role of cytochrome P450 enzymes in skin metabolism and drug development for skin diseases, highlighting their importance and suggesting further research, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that light stimulation of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells in the eyes can activate hair follicle stem cells through a neural circuit involving the sympathetic nervous system.

This review highlights that various targeted cancer therapies are associated with specific ocular side-effects, emphasizing the importance of awareness among ophthalmologists for timely diagnosis and management.

This study observed that retinoic acid biosynthesis and signaling in hair follicles have a spatial and temporal regulation linked to distinct stages of the hair cycle in mice.

In this review, researchers explored the roles of vitamins A, B3, C, D, and E in skin immunity, highlighting their potential as therapeutics for skin diseases due to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties.

This study presents the first reported Spanish case of Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy, identifying a new CDH3 mutation and highlighting the importance of clinical and genetic evaluation for accurate diagnosis.
