Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing facial actinic keratosis by identifying specific skin patterns.
research Ponatinib-induced pityriasis rubra pilaris-like adnexal dysmaturation: A case report
Ponatinib can cause a rare skin reaction that resolves with topical treatment and temporary drug discontinuation.
research Pathological Mechanisms Involved in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex: Current Knowledge and Therapeutic Perspectives
Promising treatments for EBS include anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, creams, mTOR inhibitors, and gene editing, but more trials are needed.
research Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transition in a Human Organ: Lessons from Lichen Planopilaris
PPAR-γ agonists like pioglitazone may help manage lichen planopilaris but don't fully reverse scarring.
research Oral Treatment of Keratinizing Disorders of Skin and Mucous Membranes With Etretinate
Etretinate was effective for certain skin conditions, but caused side effects like chapped lips, dry mucous membranes, and hair loss.
research Uncommon Presentation of Pityriasis Rubra Pilaris of the Scalp: Clinical, Trichoscopic, and Histopathologic Features and Review of the Literature
Recognizing scalp symptoms in PRP is crucial for proper diagnosis and treatment.
research Cicatricial alopecia/lichen planopilaris-the Cleveland clinic foundation experience on evaluation, diagnosis and treatment

Plucked hair can help diagnose pemphigus vulgaris early.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research Trichostasis spinulosa: An overlooked entity
Trichostasis spinulosa is a common but often unnoticed skin condition involving bundled vellus hairs, especially in people with darker skin or UV exposure.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome in two patients with epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type
