In this study, the researchers reported that patient impacts and symptoms of hidradenitis suppurativa, as assessed by HSIA and HSSA measures, are associated with clinical characteristics such as the number of abscesses and inflammatory nodules.

This chapter reviews recent developments in vitiligo research, highlighting the role of melanocyte stem cell differentiation and oxidative stress in its management, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that EGFR inhibitors and ligands did not significantly affect the expression of inflammatory biomarkers in cultured sebocytes, except for a notable increase in IL-1 expression with EGF treatment.

This study found that overexpression of PKCɛ in mouse epidermis increased sensitivity to metastatic squamous cell carcinoma, suggesting that a PKCɛ-mediated microenvironment may promote cancer development through specific cytokines like TNFα.

This study found that platelet-rich fibrin lysates modulate chemokine expression, reducing inflammation in oral squamous carcinoma cells, but increasing expression in primary oral epithelial cells.

This study found that TNFα inhibitors can induce psoriatic alopecia, highlighting that early diagnosis and discontinuation of the drugs in some cases may prevent irreversible scalp damage.

This case report presents the first successful treatment of perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens using a regimen of adalimumab and baricitinib, resulting in almost complete healing after nine months.

This review discusses how aging affects hair follicle stem cells and their environment, contributing to hair loss, and explores strategies to promote hair regrowth, but reports no new results.

This article reviews TNF-α inhibitor-induced alopecia, identifying various types of hair loss such as severe alopecia areata and scarring alopecia, and calls for more controlled studies to better understand this adverse effect.

This review discusses approaches to diagnosing and managing cutaneous manifestations of lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical results.

This case series highlights that anti-TNF agents, though beneficial for autoimmune conditions, can cause a rare adverse reaction of psoriasiform alopecia areata, stressing the importance of specific histopathological features for accurate diagnosis and better management to avoid unnecessary drug discontinuation.

This study found a reciprocal correlation between depressive disorders and several dermatological autoimmune diseases, such as psoriasis and lupus, suggesting that inflammation may be a shared pathomechanism for these conditions.

COVID-19 vaccines have been linked to an increase in hair loss conditions.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata and their healthy family members had elevated levels of Th1- and Th17-related cytokines, suggesting a genetic link in cytokine dysregulation.

This study found that astilbin downregulates effector CD4+ T cell activities through the CYP1B1/ROS/PPARγ pathway, suggesting its potential use in treating inflammation.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa is a chronic skin condition best treated early with surgery for better outcomes and less recurrence.

This case report documents a 59-year-old woman who developed atypical drug-induced lupus after receiving infliximab for Crohn's disease, with symptoms persisting even after discontinuation.

Some medications for inflammation can cause a condition with scalp rashes and hair loss, often linked to Crohn's disease, and may require treatment changes to prevent permanent hair loss.

Any drug can cause skin reactions, but antibiotics, NSAIDs, and psychotropic drugs are more common, with some reactions being life-threatening.

In this study, women with PCOS exhibited a significantly elevated low-grade inflammatory profile through salivary cytokines, with IL-1β and TNF-α demonstrating strong potential as non-invasive diagnostic markers, alongside traditional androgen measures like FAI.

In this prospective study, 15 patients with patchy alopecia areata treated with intralesional methotrexate every two weeks showed a significant improvement in hair regrowth and reduction in lesion severity, with changes linked to decreased tissue levels of TNF-α.

This study reviews the efficacy and safety of advanced therapies like TNFα inhibitors and IL-17/IL-23 inhibitors for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, finding TNFα inhibitors particularly effective for severe or refractory cases, although prospective validation is needed for early intervention benefits.

This review synthesizes current evidence on therapies for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, noting that biologics show promise for treatment-resistant cases, though systemic retinoids remain the first-line therapy.

In this retrospective cohort study, patients using leflunomide for primary autoimmune conditions showed a decreased risk of developing alopecia areata, while those using methotrexate, cyclosporine, and rituximab had an increased risk.

This review discusses different types of alopecia associated with psoriasis and highlights that hair loss in psoriasis is typically non-scarring and reversible, while also noting the increased risk of alopecia areata in these patients.

This review suggests that immunomodulators, including TNF-α blockers and IL inhibitors, may improve symptoms of moderate-to-severe dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, but their effects on hair regrowth and scarring remain unclear.

This study in women aged 28-38 after their first cesarean delivery found higher levels of inflammatory markers and metabolic disturbances, including elevated BMI and blood sugar, which may contribute to increased postpartum hair loss compared to healthy controls.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing IKZF1 developed lesions similar to alopecia areata, suggesting that Ikaros may play a role in the disease's pathogenesis. Ikaros expression was also higher in human alopecia areata patients compared to controls.

This review discusses immunological abnormalities in PCOS, focusing on inflammation and autoantibody production, and reports no new results; it suggests exploring new therapeutic drug targets.

This study identified specific keratin-associated protein genes that are highly expressed in different varieties and sexes of Angora goats, providing insights for improving mohair development through targeted breeding strategies.
