This case report describes a rare association where herpes zoster infection may have triggered the first attack of NMOSD with systemic vasculitis in a patient, suggesting potential overlaps in immunopathogenesis.

In this study, a UK expert panel discussed strategies for managing common side effects of vismodegib, a hedgehog pathway inhibitor used for advanced basal cell carcinoma, concluding that adverse events like taste disturbances and muscle cramps can be effectively managed to optimize treatment duration.

This case report identifies a novel nonsense mutation in the CDH3 gene associated with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy.

This case study and literature review describe eruptive vellus hair cysts as uncommon, potentially inherited or acquired lesions, associated with other skin conditions, and challenging to treat despite being benign.

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 article reports no new findings as it lacks an abstract.

This review discusses segmental vitiligo's clinical characteristics, treatment challenges, and the complex interplay with non-segmental vitiligo but reports no new clinical findings, highlighting the need for comprehensive diagnostic and management approaches.

In this study, researchers found that the ability of hamster polyomavirus to cause lymphoid tumors in Syrian hamsters may be linked to its association with the tyrosine kinase p59fyn.

This study found that the novel drug VDC-1101 showed a 45% objective response rate in treating canine cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, offering a potential treatment option for this challenging disease.

This systematic review found that mixed epithelial and stromal tumor of the seminal vesicle (MESTSV) is characterized by abundant stromal proliferation, architectural heterogeneity, and strong immunoreactivity for ER/PR, with most being benign but warranting surveillance for possible recurrence or metastasis.

Lack of vitamin D receptor increases skin tumor risk by boosting hedgehog signaling.

This case report describes a 19-year-old patient with undiagnosed severe portopulmonary hypertension who experienced acute right ventricular failure and cardiac arrest following liver transplantation, subsequently managed with ECMO and a paracorporeal lung-assist device.

This case report highlights the importance of histopathological examination in accurately diagnosing eruptive vellus hair cyst due to its rarity and resemblance to other conditions.

This case report describes a rare instance of reversible melasma-like hyperpigmentation linked to vitamin B12 deficiency due to pernicious anemia, and explores possible mechanisms for this association.

This study found that basal cell carcinoma is more prevalent on the cutaneous lip while squamous cell carcinoma is more common on the vermilion lip, with rare recurrences following Mohs micrographic surgery.

This report presents a case of molluscum contagiosum virus infection within an epidermoid cyst in a 13-year-old on long-term steroid treatment, highlighting its rare occurrence and need for histological examination for accurate diagnosis.

This study described the clinical and genetic features of two Iranian siblings with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets, identifying a specific VDR gene mutation contributing to their symptoms.

This study found that extracellular vesicles derived from hair follicle mesenchymal stromal cells demonstrated similar potential to those from adipose tissue in promoting cell proliferation and migration, enhancing angiogenesis, and protecting cells under stress, suggesting promise for chronic wound treatment.

This study found that vinblastine's metabolites show binding affinities for receptors linked to nausea and alopecia, suggesting potential changes to its structure could minimize these side effects during chemotherapy.

This case report presents a rare subtype of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy linked to a PYCR2 gene mutation, emphasizing exome sequencing's value in diagnosing undiagnosed childhood HLDs with atypical symptoms.

This study found that veterans with obstructive sleep apnea were nearly twice as likely to develop herpes zoster compared to those without the condition.

This study found that a novel R343H mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene impairs its transcription activity, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets and alopecia in the affected family.

This case report describes a basal cell carcinoma arising in association with a vellus hair cyst, which the authors note has not been previously reported.

This review discusses the advancements enabled by intravital microscopy in understanding host-parasite interactions in living animals and reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a novel V26M mutation in the vitamin D receptor as the cause of hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets in a patient, characterized by severe rickets and an unusual pattern of alopecia.

This report discusses a potentially underdiagnosed form of multisystem Langerhans cell histiocytosis in infants, demonstrating the use of thymic sonography for staging, highlighting a case where thymic and cutaneous involvement was confirmed, and suggesting thymic ultrasound may aid in better diagnosis and management of LCH.

This review discusses the implications of renaming myelodysplastic syndromes as "myelodysplastic neoplasms" and argues that the "low-risk" label may misrepresent patient experiences and hinder research.

Blood tests confirmed a baby in the womb had a CMV infection.

This case report describes a 16-year-old liver transplant patient with previous chicken pox infection experiencing disseminated varicella zoster virus infection with pneumonia, highlighting the importance of early acyclovir treatment in immunocompromised patients.
