This article outlines manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus, noting rapid joint symptom improvement with corticosteroids and antimalarial drug responsiveness for skin symptoms, and links anti-Ro with photosensitive rash and subacute lupus.

This study found that chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus with discoid lesions was the most common skin manifestation among patients with lupus erythematosus, while nonspecific skin lesions were linked to systemic lupus erythematosus, particularly during active disease phases.

This study found that pigmentation following sclerotherapy is likely caused by hemosiderin deposition from red blood cells rather than post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, with most cases resolving spontaneously within 6–24 months.

This article reviews the current ACR classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting their dermatologic limitations, and proposes guidelines for a study to update these criteria.

This article presents an update on a family with Coats' plus disorder, documenting additional symptoms and two new similar cases, and reviews literature suggesting a link to dyskeratosis congenita for potential molecular insights.

This review discusses the potential of targeting the endocannabinoid system for treating skin disorders and reports no new clinical results, highlighting the need for further research.

This review highlights the increasing clinical applications of high-frequency ultrasonography in dermatology, particularly for assessing the depth of skin tumors and monitoring inflammatory skin diseases, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that monochromatic excimer light achieved complete remission in over 50% of plaque psoriasis cases and various levels of improvement in other skin conditions, including vitiligo and mycosis fungoides.

This article describes the skin changes seen in acute and chronic graft-vs-host reactions after bone marrow transplantation, highlighting the potential for early recognition due to the visibility of these changes, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reviewed pathology reports of patients with multiple myeloma and found that skin biopsies commonly show graft-versus-host disease, drug-related lesions, and Sweet's syndrome, especially related to transplantation timing.

This review discusses the use of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) for treating skin diseases and suggests they show promise for improving conditions like wounds and scleroderma, but more research is needed due to varied study designs and endpoints.

This review examines the role of regulatory T cells in skin immune disorders, highlighting their unique functions in conditions like scleroderma, alopecia areata, and psoriasis, without reporting new clinical results.

In this case report, a patient with subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus and exfoliative erythroderma achieved complete remission with systemic corticosteroids and long-term hydroxychloroquine.

This study found that long pulsed Nd-YAG laser treatment significantly improved acne keloidalis nuchae by reducing inflammation and hair follicles, with early intervention yielding the best results.

This study found that activating liver X receptors with an agonist reduced skin fibrosis in experimental models, particularly in inflammation-driven conditions, by inhibiting macrophage infiltration and interleukin-6 release.

This article reviews the impact of different forms of alopecia on patients with systemic autoimmune diseases and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the need for attentive management of alopecia-related symptoms.

This study reports that a patient with subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus experienced disease exacerbation after the first dose of the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, but tolerated the second dose without adverse reactions.

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 role of lysophosphatidic acid in skin physiology and pathology, highlighting its significance in processes like wound healing and hair follicle development, but reports no new clinical findings.

This report describes a child with ulerythema ophryogenes marked by eyebrow hair absence and progressive skin atrophy, whose condition did not improve despite elevated vitamin A levels via injections.

This article reviews the classification and treatments of vascular anomalies, such as hemangiomas and vascular malformations, and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the importance of managing patient expectations due to treatment limitations.

This study found that most completely excised basal cell carcinomas in the head and neck were nodular, with a 2.7% recurrence rate, particularly in median areas, likely due to anatomical and histopathological factors.

In this study, researchers found that high-dose tryptophan ingestion before symptom onset may be linked to clinical features resembling eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome in patients with eosinophilic fasciitis.

This review discusses the cutaneous side effects of chemotherapy, noting that they frequently involve changes to skin, hair, and nails, and reports no new results.

This review discusses the effects of minoxidil on human skin fibroblasts, reporting its potential to inhibit lysyl hydroxylase activity and DNA synthesis, suggesting it may have antifibrotic applications for collagen-related skin conditions.

This case report discusses chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis with autoimmune and immune deficiencies in candidiasis-endocrinopathy syndrome, noting associated alopecia areata, ineffective topical immunotherapy, and asplenia.

This review discusses multiple pathways through which exosomes may regulate skin functions and diseases like melanoma, scleroderma, and pigmentation disorders, without providing new clinical results; future therapeutic strategies are suggested.
