Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), also known as acne inversa, is a chronic follicular occlusive skin disorder characterized by recurrent abscesses, draining sinuses, and scarring, with a multifactorial pathogenesis. The answer to the question whether HS may be considered a systemic disease relies on
BACKGROUND
Floppy Eyelid is a rare condition causing chronic papillary conjunctivitis and chronic corneal disorders (superficial punctate keratitis, epithelial and stromal ulcers). It is characterized by an extremely enlarged and "floppy" upper eyelid which can be easily everted by slight elevation.
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a pathologic follicular disease, impacts patients' lives profoundly and usually occurs in isolation. The diseases with the strongest association are obesity, depression, and pain. HS is associated with many diseases including acne conglobata (AC), dissecting
OBJECTIVE
Patients with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) are at high risk of developing lacrimal gland dysfunction. We have developed a new model of human T1D using double-transgenic mice carrying HLA-DQ8 diabetes-susceptibility haplotype instead of mouse MHC-class II and expressing the human beta cell
OBJECTIVE
Although floppy eyelid syndrome causes significant ocular symptoms and morbidity, the condition is often underdiagnosed. This review will highlight diagnostic features of the condition, emphasizing recent advances in the understanding of its pathophysiology. Current therapeutic strategies

Implicating dysbiosis of gut microbiome in digestive tract diseases/diet-related diseases (obesity, inflammatory bowel disease, enterocolitis, diabetes, etc.) may be expected. However, when gut microbiome dysbiosis is implicated in extraintestinal diseases like cancers, muscular dystrophy, mental
The ability of autoreactive T cells to provoke autoimmune disease is well documented. The finding that immunization with attenuated autoreactive T cells (T cell vaccination, or TCV) can induce T cell-dependent inhibition of autoimmune responses has opened the possibility that regulatory T cells may
Sleep deficiency is a common public health problem associated with many diseases, such as obesity and cardiovascular disease. In this study, we established a sleep deprivation (SD) mouse model using a 'stick over water' method and observed the effect of sleep deficiency on ocular surface health. We
