This study reviewed how Anifrolumab, though often used in real-world settings for SLE patients with neurological symptoms, showed varying effectiveness and required cautious monitoring for adverse effects like thrombocytopenia and cerebrovascular events.

In this case report, researchers described a 48-year-old man with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed a fungus ball (aspergilloma) within a tuberculosis cavity, a complication rarely reported in such patients, emphasizing the role of CT scans in diagnosis and the potential need for surgical intervention.

The document discusses various diseases of the outer ear, categorized by symptoms like redness, crusts, bumps, pus-filled lesions, lumps, ulcers, and hair loss.

This case report describes a 21-year-old woman whose catatonia led to the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus, suggesting catatonia may be an underrecognized manifestation of neuropsychiatric lupus.

This case report details a rare instance of primary adrenal insufficiency as a manifestation of antiphospholipid syndrome, with the patient successfully managed through glucocorticoids, warfarin, and hydroxychloroquine.

This case report describes a woman whose initial presentation of SLE was persistent watery diarrhea, diagnosed as lymphocytic enterocolitis, and shows that immunosuppressive therapy resulted in symptom relief.

Stopping certain drugs can improve skin conditions, arsenicosis affects over half of a Bangladeshi village, males are more vulnerable, and certain treatments are effective for warts, acne, and psoriasis. Smoking and drinking are linked to psoriasis in men, a cream helps with a type of skin cancer, and low iron levels don't directly cause chronic hair loss in women.

This review discusses potential causes of alopecia and hair overgrowth in pediatric patients, detailing diagnostic techniques and treatments, but presents no new research findings.

The Hotz-Celsus surgery successfully fixed inward-turning eyelids in cattle.

This source highlights that arsenic exposure through contaminated groundwater is a significant global health risk, leading to skin and hair conditions such as pigmentation changes, skin irritation, alopecia, and can eventually result in skin cancer.

This study found that desmocollin 1 is crucial for strong adhesion and barrier maintenance in the mouse epidermis, with its absence leading to skin and hair issues resembling chronic dermatitis.

This study found that PTEN regulates the number and genomic stability of hair follicle stem cells in the skin, with its deficiency leading to increased stem cell accumulation and senescence through interactions with BMAL1 and BMI-1.

This review discusses various topical medication instillation techniques for managing glaucoma but reports a lack of evidence on their effectiveness compared to usual care.

This review highlights that diagnosing cicatricial alopecia, a hair loss condition linked to several autoimmune diseases, requires trichoscopy and histopathological examination to differentiate it from similar conditions, with early diagnosis being crucial for effective management.

In this review, experts discuss the low but significant risk of serious eye complications from popular minimally invasive cosmetic procedures like fillers and botulinum toxin injections, underscoring the need for awareness, careful patient selection, and adherence to safe practices to help prevent these outcomes.

In this case report, a 41-year-old male developed myasthenia gravis following alopecia areata, with prednisolone and tacrolimus improving his symptoms; a literature review identified 29 reported cases of this comorbidity, with some showing additional autoimmune diseases, suggesting a shared immunological mechanism.

This study found that Neuregulin3 can influence the development and differentiation of mammary glands and epidermal features in mice, potentially by inducing c-Myc and altering cell proliferation and adhesion.

This study found that K6a expression in mouse sebaceous gland ducts correlates with Hedgehog signaling, suggesting a role in duct fate.

This article explores the origins and differences between human and animal faces, emphasizing the face's role in communication and its relevance to plastic surgery, but presents no new research findings.

In this study, researchers evaluated hair follicle transplantation techniques and reported that challenges such as limited follicle supply and low follicle survival rates often limit patient satisfaction, but advances in regenerative medicine may offer promising new solutions.

This review discusses how ionizing radiation causes skin damage by inducing cellular senescence in keratinocytes, which secrete inflammatory mediators, recruiting immune cells and exacerbating inflammation, impacting the skin barrier function and healing.

Levofloxacin and metronidazole reduce inflammation and speed up healing in gingival wounds.

In this case report, a 36-year-old woman with GAPO syndrome underwent successful XEN gelatin micro-stent implantation in both eyes to control primary open-angle glaucoma that was unresponsive to medical treatment, marking the first documented use of this minimally invasive glaucoma surgery in such a patient.

This study found that human meibomian glands differ significantly from free and hair-associated sebaceous glands in morphology and lipid composition, making them highly specialized holocrine glands.

This study identified genetic mutations linked to congenital ichthyosis in families from the UAE and Turkey, revealing a connection between keratinization disorders and impaired filaggrin processing.

This study found that immune-mediated destruction of bulge stem cells is a key factor in the alopecia observed in AE mice, suggesting it as a model for studying primary cicatricial alopecias, particularly lichen planopilaris.

This study found that the acyl-CoA binding protein is essential for the production of very long chain free fatty acids in the stratum corneum and maintaining normal epidermal barrier function in mice.

This study discusses how beauty standards contribute to structural injustice by imposing rising demands and increasing body image anxiety across various demographics.

This study highlights that Demodex mites, commonly found on human skin, can cause significant eye and skin issues such as blepharitis, rosacea, and dermatitis when present in abnormally high densities, underscoring the need for targeted management strategies.

This case report presents the first evidence of significant antigen presenting cells around hair follicles in a patient with alopecia due to active systemic lupus erythematosus.
