This paper reviews seven major systemic causes of hair loss and provides a clinical evaluation framework but reports no new experimental results.

This report describes two cases where female patients with chronic granulomatous disease developed manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting a rare association that may influence clinical evaluation and treatment planning.

The document concludes that using gadolinium-based contrast agents during MRI can be linked to Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis in patients with severe kidney disease.

This study found that permanent alopecia can occur after certain chemotherapy treatments and presents as nonscarring hair loss similar to androgenetic alopecia, with specific histological features that could be misdiagnosed without proper clinicopathological correlation.

Severe digestive issues in DRESS need early endoscopy for better treatment.

This letter to the editor discusses a previous clinical and histopathological analysis of four cases of severe diffuse non-scarring hair loss in systemic lupus erythematosus, reporting no new study results.

In this case report, two female patients with refractory systemic lupus erythematosus showed significant improvement after treatment with the JAK inhibitor upadacitinib, indicating potential as a promising option for difficult cases, although further research is needed to confirm its broader safety and efficacy.

In this study, cutaneous features like hair loss, malar rash, and photosensitivity were identified as key indicators of disease activity in systemic lupus erythematosus.

In this study, severe diffuse hair loss in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus was associated with distinct clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathological features, which improved alongside treatment of the underlying condition.

In this study, epidermal EGFR ablation in a mouse model led to significant local and systemic inflammatory responses, highlighting EGFR's role in maintaining skin immuno-homeostasis.

This study reported that the prevalence of atopic dermatitis in cats was higher than previously suggested, with severe nonseasonal pruritus most common, and certain breeds were predisposed.

This article reviews different types of alopecia, their diagnosis, and treatment options available in a family physician's practice, but it reports no new research findings.

This study found that feline superficial pyoderma was more prevalent in the dermatology-referral cats studied than previously reported, affecting mainly young cats with hypersensitivities and manifesting various lesion types.

This research analyzed 72 primary scarring alopecia cases in a Barcelona hospital, finding that the majority involved women, with a lymphocytic infiltrate and subacute onset in many cases, leading to stable disease, while neutrophilic cases had more acute episodes.

In this study, only 1 out of 5 patients with anti-TNF-α induced psoriasiform eruptions showed good response to topical treatment, while systemic therapy and discontinuation of anti-TNF-α may prevent scarring alopecia in severe cases.

This report describes two unusual cases of lichen planopilaris in Caucasian patients, detailing features suggestive of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides and an overlap with systemic lupus erythematosus.

This study reports that the symptoms and immunological findings in two children with diverse autoimmune-like conditions were ultimately attributed to lysinuric protein intolerance, confirmed by genetic analysis in one child.

This study documented a variety of skin lesions in COVID-19 patients, indicating that skin rashes might be an early or sole symptom of the disease.

This study retrospectively analyzed 14 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting that 57% experienced total eyebrow loss, and all received various steroid treatments, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis to potentially delay disease progression.

This case series observed that patients with persistent post-COVID-19 symptoms reported considerable improvement after using icosapent ethyl, suggesting potential therapeutic success warranting further research.

This study suggests that erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp may be part of the spectrum of autoinflammatory dermatoses, rather than a unique skin disorder.

According to this study, systemic retinoids, specifically oral isotretinoin and acitretin, were more effective than finasteride in stabilizing the frontal hairline in female patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, achieving treatment goals in over 70% of cases.

In this systematic review, researchers found that Tinea capitis in individuals aged 65 or older is frequently misdiagnosed, primarily affects women, and often presents with inflammatory symptoms; systemic antifungal therapy led to clinical cure in 91.2% of cases.

This study observed that 70.7% of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia stabilized with treatment, and patients using 0.3% tacrolimus were more likely to stabilize in 3 months compared to other treatments.

This study found that tofacitinib was safe and effective for patients with severe or treatment-resistant alopecia areata, alopecia totalis, and alopecia universalis, resulting in significant hair regrowth for most participants.

This review discusses different types of hair loss in women and suggests that addressing underlying health issues or stopping trigger medications can restore hair growth without additional intervention, but it reports no new results.

The researchers reported three cases where systemic lupus erythematosus appeared 4-6 weeks after mild COVID-19 in women, suggesting further studies are needed to explore this potential connection.

This report presents two cases of systemic lupus in male patients with a distinct form of alopecia that combines both scarring and non-scarring elements, highlighting the variability in lupus-related hair loss presentations.

This report describes cases of transient thyrotoxicosis potentially linked to oral retinoid treatment, suggesting a possible mechanism involving increased iodine uptake by thyroid cells.

This article reviews various causes of hair loss linked to systemic factors, noting that careful history and examination can lead to accurate diagnosis, but reports no new clinical results.
