This study suggests that using the International Psoriasis Council's classification, which includes body surface area, special areas, and treatment history, may identify more candidates for systemic therapy than by body surface area alone.

This study investigated the effects of pathological α-synuclein on sebaceous gland cells in Parkinson's disease, finding that α-synuclein exposure altered cellular differentiation and lipid production, suggesting a potential link between α-synuclein and lipid dysregulation in the skin of PD patients.

This article describes the development and validation of a standardized instrument for measuring skin involvement in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, aiming to aid future clinical research and trials.

The AUTS2 gene is linked to neurological disorders and may affect human brain development and cognition.

In this study, researchers found that a PER3 gene SNP may be pathogenic for a new subtype of dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria, especially when combined with a SASH1 mutation.

This study reported three related cases of woolly hair syndrome transmitted as a dominant autosomal trait, characterized by fine, frizzy hair and general hair thinning.

This case report details a 45-year-old woman with SLE who experienced severe leukopenia and hair loss attributed to azathioprine, suggesting the importance of recognizing these potential adverse effects for timely intervention.

This case report describes a woman in her 30s diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus, characterized by alopecia, arthritis, photosensitivity, and skin rashes, confirmed through positive serology.

This report describes a 38-year-old female diagnosed with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome Type II after presenting with shock.

A man with Woolly Hair Syndrome had very curly, fragile hair, and doctors used a special scalp examination to diagnose him without invasive tests.

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.

A thorough, team-based approach and clear communication improve outcomes in complex neuropsychiatric lupus cases.

This paper reviews Satoyoshi syndrome and suggests diagnostic criteria to differentiate its subtypes, emphasizing the importance of testing alopecia areata patients for antinuclear antibodies, muscle spasms, and diarrhea.

The authors concluded that VSCAPSI, a videodermoscopy-based assessment tool, provides evidence for early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, follow-up, and screening of scalp psoriasis.

In this review, researchers explored hair as a promising tool for identifying biomarkers in schizophrenia, highlighting its potential for supporting personalized medicine through ease of sampling, though acknowledging challenges like individual variability and methodological inconsistencies.

This case report describes a 29-year-old man with systemic lupus erythematosus who responded well to pulse-dose methylprednisolone treatment.

This study observed that mice with a Cx43 mutation exhibited slower and asynchronous hair regrowth with severe cuticle weathering, mimicking aspects of hair phenotype in some ODDD patients.

This review found an increased prevalence of common skin disorders, such as infectious and inflammatory conditions, in patients with Down syndrome and highlighted the need for improved screening and management guidelines.

This study proposes a new test for genome-wide association studies that incorporates Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium into SNP analysis, demonstrating improved power and interpretability over traditional methods, as evidenced by simulations and an alopecia study dataset.

This study found that most chronic alopecia areata patients treated with azathioprine, methotrexate, or cyclosporine continued treatment for at least 12 months, often requiring concurrent low-dose prednisolone.

This case report describes a 61-year-old woman with Sjögren's syndrome who experienced multiple episodes of aseptic meningitis linked to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim use.

This case report describes a child with Gomez–Lopez–Hernandez syndrome, highlighting developmental challenges and medical interventions, yet noting academic success and participation in mainstream activities.

This study found that systemic lupus erythematosus was diagnosed earlier in males than females, with a notable delay in diagnosis for females often due to confounding symptom overlaps with other conditions.

In this study involving 30 Kazakh women with systemic lupus erythematosus, the researchers found a strong correlation between disease activity (SELENA-SLEDAI scores) and organ damage (SLICC/ACR scores), which depended on disease duration and reliably reflected cumulative disease activity.

This study presents four cases of delusions of parasitosis and introduces escitalopram as a potential therapy, highlighting its fewer side effects compared to the commonly used pimozide.

This case report suggests that PUVA treatment may have played a role in triggering systemic lupus erythematosus in a 23-year-old woman with psoriasis.

This report describes two scalp lichen simplex chronicus cases with hair loss and intense itching, noting unique dermoscopic and histopathological features.
