To date, there have been fewer than 100 reported cases of LS. LS occurring in siblings has not been previously reported. Case Presentation: We present a 58-year-old and 63-year-old pair of black Caribbean female siblings with LS. Scalp thickness on ultrasound of the vertex in each case was 12 mm and 11 mm from skin to periosteum, respectively (normal range: 5–6 mm). Histopathological analysis in the younger sibling demonstrated prominent fat, high in the dermis around hair follicles, with follicular distortion and focal perifollicular fibrosis. Co-morbidities in the younger sibling were obesity (body mass index [BMI] 39.0), paranoid schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder; the older sibling was overweight (BMI 26.0) with co-morbidities of hypercholesterolemia, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypomania, and migraines; both siblings were taking psychiatric medication. Conclusion: We present an unusual case of LS in a pair of female siblings, adding to the limited existing evidence that there may be a genetic role in the pathogenesis of LS. Furthermore, both siblings in this case had psychiatric co-morbidities and were taking psychiatric medication, which have not been previously identified as associations of LS.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"85 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135092420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different agents such as hydroxychloroquine, methotrexate, cyclosporine, and mycophenolate mofetil have been tried to control hair loss with limited efficacy. JAK inhibitors are immune-modulating drugs which interfere with the JAK-STAT signaling pathway in lymphocytes and are used in treatment of inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and alopecia areata. Summary: Our aim was to determine effectiveness of JAK inhibitors in LPP and its clinical variant, frontal fibrosing alopecia. A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane databases. A total of 7 articles describing 35 patients were found. Although data on treatment are limited to retrospective studies and case reports, JAK inhibitors can be considered a new therapeutic option, especially in recalcitrant cases. Large prospective studies and randomized control trials are needed to provide further evidence supporting efficacy. Key Messages: Besides the fact that data on the treatment of LPP and FFA with JAK inhibitors are limited to retrospective studies and case reports, but JAK inhibitors can be considered as a new therapeutic option especially in recalcitrant cases.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":" 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135240743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although there are a wide range of therapies, the majority of them are not satisfactory due to side effects, pain due to intralesional injections or limited efficacy. In this study, we sought to evaluate the efficacy, influence factors, and safety of 308 nm excimer lamp used in a monthly basis in a double-stacked pulse manner for the treatment of AA. Methods: This was a prospective study, using 308 nm excimer lamp in a double-stacked pulse therapy for AA. The primary endpoint was the improvement in SALT score. Results: A total of 40 patients with AA were enrolled in this study. Forty (100%) patients achieved clinical response. Hyperpigmentation and erythema occurred on the treated alopecic areas of all patients but they were considered tolerable. Patients of younger age or with a smaller area of affection had a better overall treatment response. Conclusion: 308 nm excimer lamp therapy is an excellent option for single or multiple AA because it achieves a good clinical response with less adverse effects than other therapies. This therapy may be useful for low-income countries where new JAK inhibitors are not available, however, for patients with extensive hair loss, it is not as effective and thus, it may be unfit for patients with alopecia totalis and alopecia universals.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"97 1‐2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135818823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the efficacy of 5% minoxidil, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and microneedling across adults with PHL insofar as change in total hair density at 24 weeks. Methods: We conducted a literature search in July 2022.

Results: Data from 27 trials, totaling 1,110 patients, were extracted. Interventions were ranked based on the probability of inducing hair density improvements: 5% minoxidil plus microneedling (SUCRA = 95.8%), 5% minoxidil plus PRP (SUCRA = 64.7%), 5% minoxidil (SUCRA = 53.9%), PRP (SUCRA = 34.9%), microneedling (SUCRA = 27.8%), and PRP with microneedling (SUCRA = 22.9%). The efficacy of 5% minoxidil plus microneedling in improving total hair density was significantly greater (p &lt; 0.05) than 5% minoxidil monotherapy (MD = 13 hairs/cm2), PRP monotherapy (MD = 16 hairs/cm2), and microneedling monotherapy (MD = 17 hairs/cm2).

Within an extensive and evolving treatment landscape, oral isotretinoin has demonstrated efficacy for treatment of severe, recalcitrant acne. Several side effects of isotretinoin have been reported, including laboratory abnormalities, mucocutaneous, and musculoskeletal effects, which may reduce compliance and patient satisfaction with treatment. In this narrative review, we aim to review the efficacy and safety profile of oral supplements or topical adjuvant therapies in mitigating isotretinoin-associated mucocutaneous and musculoskeletal side effects. Oral supplements reviewed include omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E, folic acid and vitamin B12, antihistamines, l-carnitine, biotin, and combined oral supplements. Topical adjuvants include a hyaluronic acid, biosaccharide gum-2, and glycerine gel-cream; a nongreasy, noncomedogenic, fragrance-free moisturizing cream; dexpanthenol; trichloroacetic acid; and a combination cream. Most of the supplements and topical adjuvants demonstrated efficacy with an adequate level of supporting evidence and no reported adverse events, indicating an adequate safety profile. Patients on isotretinoin may benefit from using oral supplements and topical adjuvants to minimize primarily mucocutaneous side effects, increase adherence to treatment, and thereby improve overall outcomes.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135618687","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It usually presents with distal subungual lesions, leading to recurrent and persistent disease by acting as a reservoir of infection. Periungual involvement in scabies with nail loss is rare and may lead to severe nail damage. Case Presentation: We report a 14-year-old boy on chemotherapy for acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) who presented with extensive scaling and crusted plaques of scabies. Nail unit revealed periungual crusted plaques with paronychia and onychomadesis involving five digits. It was associated with partial to complete nail loss. Dermoscopy of periungual crusted plaques showed greyish-white scales with brown dots and globules. A sinuous burrow with a brown-triangular structure was visualized in the web space. KOH mount from skin scrapings showed the scabies mites. Treatment of scabies led to a marked improvement. Conclusion: Though ungual scabies is generally a benign disease, proximal periungual involvement with damage to nail matrix is possible, leading to nail loss. We review manifestations of nail unit scabies reported in literature. Treatment options used and outcomes are also analyzed. The importance of nail-directed therapy in preventing relapses of scabies cannot be undermined.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136062706","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
