This study found a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with lichen planus, especially those with mucosal involvement, which is associated with increased cardiovascular and diabetes risk.

Laser technologies improve medical treatments and outcomes.

This study found that Black patients with discoid lupus erythematosus had significantly worse CLASI damage scores and higher odds for dyspigmentation, scalp involvement, and scarring alopecia compared to non-Black patients.

This case report describes the first instance of classical lichen planopilaris with atrophic lichenoid plaques developing in a Blaschko-linear pattern due to imatinib treatment in a patient with chronic myeloid leukemia.

This review covers the development and validation of classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus, detailing the changes from the 1982 ACR criteria to the 2012 SLICC criteria, and reports no new results.

This report describes two cases where lichen planopilaris compromised hair follicles in both donor and recipient areas after follicular unit transplantation, emphasizing the need for a biopsy if lichen planopilaris is suspected.

This article describes the first reported case of isolated linear discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp, suggesting it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of linear scarring alopecia.

Laser Lax is a new tool that measures scalp looseness accurately and comfortably.

This study found that low-frequency sonophoresis significantly decreased the skin penetration of sodium fluorescein-loaded PEGylated liposomes with D-limonene and affected percutaneous absorption by partially plugging hair follicle orifices.

This study developed a reliable RP-HPLC method for the simultaneous estimation of Spironolactone and Hydrochlorothiazide, which was validated as accurate, precise, and robust for pharmaceutical applications.

In a cell-free test setting, this study found that a novel saw palmetto extract effectively inhibited the 5α-reductase type II enzyme, showing promising bioactivity comparable to finasteride for promoting prostate health.

This study found that treatment improved symptoms and stopped disease progression for 75% of lichen planopilaris patients whose follow-up data were available.

Repaglinide-loaded liponiosomal hybrids improve blood sugar control and insulin release better than regular Repaglinide.

This study modeled how differences in trial settings and protocols, such as biopsy compliance and control arm screening, can explain the varying prostate cancer mortality reductions observed in the ERSPC and PLCO trials.

This report presents two cases of Berardinelli–Seip syndrome, emphasizing the role of genetic analysis and comprehensive care in managing the variability and complications of this rare condition.

This study described a case where lupus erythematosus panniculitis preceded the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the need for regular follow-ups in LEP patients for potential SLE development.

The researchers reported that the SAGI PGP procedure resulted in excess weight loss of over 90% in the first year and normalized blood sugar levels without medication among diabetic patients by the first month post-operation.

In this study, researchers observed that knocking down the LPA 4 receptor in zebrafish embryos led to vascular and lymph vessel development abnormalities, including edema and decreased heartbeats.

This study found that a new lecithinized coal tar formulation did not stain different types of mammalian hair, suggesting it may be promising for treating scalp psoriasis without the drawback of staining.

This pilot study found that cord blood platelet-rich plasma treatment was safe and improved symptoms and sexual function in women with vulvar lichen sclerosus after standard topical corticosteroid treatment.

This study found that the lncRNA018392, responsive to melatonin, accelerates cell proliferation in cashmere goats by recruiting the transcription factor SPI1 to upregulate the nearby gene CSF1R, which may explain the molecular mechanisms of cashmere growth.

In this case study, a woman with SLE and severe alopecia showed improved hair growth using intralesional triamcinolone, PRP injections, and tacrolimus ointment, highlighting PRP as a potential adjunct therapy for inflammatory alopecia.

This case report describes a 26-year-old with systemic lupus erythematosus presenting with psoriatic alopecia, revealing a novel scalp dermoscopic pattern of “patchy dotted vessels.

Treatment with methotrexate and prednisolone led to complete hair regrowth and no relapse for 2 years.

This article reports no new research findings and corrects the affiliation for Dr. Shao-Wen Li in a previous publication.

This study found that the oral Janus kinase inhibitor CP-690,550 has a direct effect on reducing pruritus in patients with psoriasis, independent of clinician-assessed improvements in psoriasis severity.

This review discusses low level laser therapy for hair loss but reports no new research findings; it serves as an introduction to understanding existing knowledge before upcoming evaluations of recent studies.

This study developed two comprehensive patient-reported outcome measures for systemic lupus erythematosus to assess symptom fluctuations and impacts, following FDA guidelines, which may aid in clinical studies and practice.

This study developed a nanocarrier-based gel to enhance the delivery and effectiveness of resveratrol in treating psoriasis. In a mouse model, the gel improved skin penetration and retention, showed notable anti-psoriatic effects, and was deemed safe and biocompatible.

In this study, key histologic features such as mucinous perifollicular fibroplasia were identified to aid in the diagnosis of lichen planopilaris.
