Clinical and dermoscopic features associated with lichen planus ‐like keratoses that undergo skin biopsy: A single‐center, observational study
ConclusionsLichen planus ‐like keratoses can be challenging to distinguish from benign and malignant skin tumors. The presence of dermoscopic scale and orange colour may aid in the recognition of lichen planus‐like keratose. Coarse peppering and the presence of peppering as the only dermoscopic feature may further aid t he identification of pigmented lichen planus‐like keratoses.

The functions of FoxO transcription factors in epithelial wound healing
AbstractRe ‐epithelialisation is a complex process that involves the migration and proliferation of keratinocytes, as well as the production of cytokines and growth factors that affect wound healing. The precise mechanisms that control the tissue repair process remain poorly understood. Recent evidence indic ates that FoxO transcription factors play a crucial role in wound healing. In mammals, different isoforms of FoxO, namely, FoxO1, FoxO3, FoxO4 and FoxO6, are present; however, FoxO1 and FoxO3 primarily function in epithelial wound healing. The functions of FoxO proteins in normal wound healing are o pposite of those ...

Familial frontal fibrosing alopecia: A cross ‐sectional study of 20 cases from nine families
ConclusionThis study adds to the growing evidence that there is a genetic component to frontal fibrosing alopecia. The clinical pattern of frontal fibrosing alopecia was not different from that found in non ‐familial cases, but the debut of the disease in daughters of mothers with frontal fibrosing alopecia may be earlier.

Treatment of alopecia areata: An Australian expert consensus statement
AbstractAlopecia areata (AA) severity varies from a single small patch to complete loss of scalp hair, body hair, eyelashes and eyebrows. While 40% of all affected individuals only ever get one patch and will achieve a spontaneous complete durable remission within 6  months, 27% will develop additional patches but still achieve complete durable remission within 12 months and 33% will develop chronic AA. Without systemic treatment, 55% of individuals with chronic AA will have persistent multifocal relapsing and remitting disease, 30% will ultimately develop al opecia totalis and 15% will develop alopecia universalis. The ...
