This review discusses the therapeutic potential and safety of bioidentical recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) for various skin and mucosa conditions and reports no new clinical results.

This study identified that certain diseases, including AIDS and systemic lupus erythematosus, may cause African hair to change to a silky, wavy texture similar to neonatal hair in affected patients.

In this study, SLE was found to be uncommon among patients with rheumatological complaints in Uganda, with a notable overlap with rheumatoid arthritis and frequent presentation of complications.

This study reports that hair in women with systemic lupus erythematosus is thinner than in healthy women, but not significantly different from women with rheumatoid arthritis.

This systematic review of Mendelian randomization studies reports that autoimmune thyroid disease is associated with increased risk for numerous health conditions, including coronary atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, while decreasing risks for others, such as lung cancer.

In this study, researchers developed a new prostate cancer imaging agent, a [99m Tc]tricarbonyl complex derived from finasteride, which demonstrated high radiochemical purity and significant uptake in the prostate of a rat model, suggesting its potential for noninvasive prostate cancer imaging.

This study established that a human epidermal model can be utilized to assess 5alpha-reductase activity and evaluate enzyme modulators, such as finasteride, for dermatological applications.

Dermatologists are hesitant to prescribe Janus kinase inhibitors for alopecia areata due to safety concerns and lack of knowledge.

This case report reviews the management of Rowell syndrome in a patient initially diagnosed with Rhupus syndrome and highlights their development of erythema multiforme after certain medications.

This study reported that in Hispanic/Latinx patients with alopecia areata, rheumatoid arthritis was a common autoimmune comorbidity, and gastroesophageal reflux disease was notably more prevalent than in other populations with alopecia areata.

This study found that topical application of emodin promoted hair regrowth in mice, with effects comparable to minoxidil.

This article discusses a clinicopathological case of diffuse scalp alopecia in a middle-aged patient and presents no new clinical findings.

This case report describes a 42-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis who developed extensive impetiginized pityriasis amiantacea potentially linked to her anti-TNF-α therapy with golimumab. Discontinuing the drug and other treatments led to significant clinical improvement within a month.

This report describes a case of juvenile Rhupus syndrome in an 11-year-old girl, emphasizing the condition's rarity and the diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms of juvenile idiopathic arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus.

Following COVID-19 vaccination, this case report observed that a 31-year-old male displayed a significant abnormal autoimmune response, leading to suspected undifferentiated connective tissue disease possibly overlapping rheumatoid arthritis and SLE, despite negative autoimmune markers prior to surgery.

This report presents a case of a female with PCOS treated with metformin who developed hyperuricemia, severe joint and neurological pain, and later experienced a hypersensitivity reaction to benzathine benzyl penicillin.

This review discusses the traditional uses and pharmacological activities of Citrullus colocynthis, also known as Bitter Apple, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the prevalence, causes, and associated conditions of hidradenitis suppurativa, a chronic inflammatory skin disease, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found no significant association between ABO blood groups, Rhesus factor, and ferritin levels in women with telogen effluvium.

Steroid hormones can help treat aging issues and improve health in elderly people.

This study found that secreted factors from skin-derived precursors, especially those pre-treated with jasmine extract, enhanced keratinocyte growth and influenced reconstructed human epidermis thickness in lab experiments.

This study concluded that a new model of reconstructed human epidermis using keratinocytes from plucked hair follicles offers a less-invasive alternative to conventional skin-derived models for skin research.

This study investigated the dynamic mechanical properties of fluid-immersed elastic hair beds under oscillatory shear flows, revealing a nonlinear response influenced by driving frequency and amplitude, which impacts mechanosensory signaling stability in biological processes like vasodilation and ciliary remodeling.

Medicaid coverage for alopecia areata treatments is inconsistent and often limited.

This review examines the potential role of homoeopathy in managing autoimmune diseases, focusing on evidence from recent case reports and studies. It discusses clinical outcomes in various conditions and explores possible immunomodulatory mechanisms associated with homoeopathic interventions.

This study explains the formulation and evaluation of a natural polyherbal shampoo, which effectively colors hair and provides conditioning without the dermal and systemic toxicity risks of synthetic dyes, offering an effective alternative to conventional products.

This study found that patients with primary cicatricial alopecia are at higher risk of developing various comorbidities, including systemic lupus erythematosus, hypothyroidism, and dermatological conditions, compared to controls.

This study found that among US adults with vitiligo, the most prevalent autoimmune comorbidities were thyroid disease and alopecia areata, with evidence suggesting greater vitiligo extent increases prevalence of several autoimmune conditions.

This study explored the molecular mechanisms by which Polygonum multiflorum may treat androgenic alopecia, suggesting it influences cell apoptosis and inflammation through specific pathways, with potential application value pending further testing.

In this study, researchers developed an environmentally friendly hair coating from casein proteins and tannic acid, enhancing the tensile strength of virgin Asian hair by approximately 21% compared to untreated hair, while maintaining elasticity.
