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

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

This review details skin conditions in children and adolescents related to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, emphasizing mask-related acne and various cutaneous manifestations linked to infection and vaccination, with most being mild or nonspecific.

Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a unique hair loss condition with inflammation and scarring, resembling but distinct from common balding.

Lichen planopilaris is a rare, chronic condition causing hair loss, mainly in middle-aged women, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent baldness.

This review elaborates on the skin side effects of chemotherapy and emphasizes identifying and managing both common and life-threatening skin reactions, without presenting new clinical findings.

This article reviews the genetic and potential environmental factors in alopecia areata's pathogenesis and suggests a polygenic model but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that in Arabidopsis thaliana, the interaction between extracellular leucine-rich repeat extensins and the receptor-like kinase FERONIA helps control vacuolar expansion, crucial for cellular elongation.

Skin changes can indicate starvation and nutritional deficiencies in anorexia nervosa.

THAP1 gene changes do not affect DYT1 dystonia; finasteride may help reduce tics and OCD in Tourette syndrome.

This review discusses changes in keratin structure or gene expression that result in various skin disorders and reports no new clinical findings.

This review highlights the possibility of safely altering hair color through innovative cosmetics by targeting key biological processes in hair follicles, using insights from mammalian pigmentation studies and drug-induced hair color changes as potential pathways.

This review discusses how skin lesions and haircoat changes in adult horses can indicate systemic diseases, emphasizing the need for veterinary evaluation, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the cutaneous side effects of chemotherapy, noting that they frequently involve changes to skin, hair, and nails, and reports no new results.

This study found that both ethanol and aqueous extracts of Lepidium sativum seeds improved insulin signaling and reduced obesity-related metabolic changes in high-fat diet-fed rats, suggesting potential as a dietary supplement.

This case series describes five patients with rare facial lichen planopilaris, detailing the clinical presentation and treatment of their pigmentary changes and scarring alopecia.

Lichen Planus is a less common condition affecting skin and mucous membranes, with various types and associated risk factors, challenging to diagnose, significantly impacts life quality, and may have a risk of cancerous changes in oral lesions.

This review discusses the long-term cutaneous and ocular complications from sulfur mustard exposure in the Iranian population, identifying pruritus and malignant changes as significant issues and highlighting eye surface damage leading to visual decline.

This case report describes a 10-year-old British Shorthair cat with lethargy, weight loss, alopecia, and spontaneous pruritus, revealing severe skin changes upon examination.

This study discusses incidental findings of syringomas and syringomatous proliferations in areas of scalp alopecia, suggesting they may be secondary to reactive changes from subclinical alopecia.

This study found that experimentally induced hypothyroidism in rats is associated with impaired skin structure, but topical application of triiodothyronine (T3) improved these changes to resemble normal skin.

This study reports that structural abnormalities in the inner root sheath of hair follicles may cause the hair shaft to be loosely attached in patients with loose anagen hair syndrome.

Fibroblasts from healthy donors can prevent changes seen in recessive epidermolysis bullosa simplex.

This review discusses the expanding applications of dermoscopy in dermatological diagnosis beyond its initial use for detecting dysplastic nevi and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that salinity stress in Arabidopsis thaliana root hairs may inhibit hair extension through changes in the tip-focused Ca(2+) gradient, while cytosolic pH remains unaffected.

In this case series, researchers observed a rare presentation of lichen planopilaris confined to the face in six patients, with dermoscopic and histopathological profiles indicating scarring alopecia and pigment changes, and suggested that shaving and mustard oil use might trigger the condition.

This report from the UK reviews the literature on post-menopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights its under-recognition and distinctive characteristics compared to lichen planopilaris, but does not provide new results.

This study found that nonscarring alopecia in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus may indicate higher disease activity, as evidenced by specific histological and immunofluorescence changes.

In this study, fibroblasts from long-term skin biopsy cultures retained their ability to reprogram into induced pluripotent stem cells after 16 months, despite undergoing transcriptional changes and decreased proliferation rates over successive generations.
