OBJECTIVE The purpose of this search was to review the literature on the subject of alopecia areata. METHODS This literary review utilized the library databases of Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature and PubMed as well as the medical research platform Ovid, exploring topics associated with the subject matter of alopecia areata examining issues associated with the autoimmune disorder including diagnosis, treatment, and the patient experience. This investigation examines the diagnosis and progression of the autoimmune disease including relevant and recent literature reflecting research outcomes from the specialties of dermatology, psychology, genetics, and nursing. RESULTS In summary, the outcome of the literature exploration reflects research from the specialties of dermatology, psychology, and medicine, revealing numerous difficulties patients diagnosed with alopecia areata experience. CONCLUSION The nursing profession pursues research to promote best practice and improve patient outcomes; however, nursing research falls short on the topic of alopecia areata. This autoimmune disorder causes a significant psychological impact on people living with the disease; therefore, individuals diagnosed with the condition experience the unique phenomenon of living without hair. The literature review indicates the need for further investigation of the essence of living with the daily reality of cyclic patterns of hair loss and the resulting health-illness transition from one stable state of health to another state of health.

BACKGROUND Narrowband ultraviolet phototherapy is a safe and effective treatment option for chronic skin conditions. The requirements of clinic-based phototherapy can be burdensome, with home-based phototherapy as a reasonable alternative. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to analyze the effects of a nurse-led home phototherapy program and describe the clinical resources required. METHODS A pragmatic multicenter prospective observational cohort study was conducted from 2019 to 2021. Eighteen participants were enrolled in the program and followed for 9 months. Outcome measures included clearance rates, erythema incidence, Dermatology Life Quality Index, the burden of treatment scores, dermatologic medication usage, and clinic contacts. RESULTS Fourteen of the 18 patients (77.8%) reported high skin clearance. Mild erythema was common, moderate erythema was rare, and two episodes of severe erythema were recorded overall. Dermatology Life Quality Index and burden of treatment impact were minimal. Adjunct topical medications decreased by half. Nurses successfully reached participants up to the 3-month time point, with completed contacts decreasing over time. Unplanned contacts included phone calls and emails. CONCLUSION Dermatology nurses possess the skills needed to lead safe and effective home phototherapy programs. Although this pragmatic study was small, results are optimistic for the future of nurse-led home phototherapy.

ABSTRACT Inflammation driven by immune-mediated mechanisms can lead to a wide variety of skin manifestations. Cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE), for example, is an autoimmune connective tissue disease that may be limited to the skin or be part of the widespread multiorgan involvement seen in systemic lupus erythematosus. Clinical findings are divided into lupus-specific (acute, subacute, and chronic) and nonspecific skin lesions. The diagnosis of CLE requires a thorough physical examination and, in some cases, skin biopsy and laboratory evaluation for any underlying systemic involvement. CLE treatment is dependent on the cutaneous manifestations and severity of disease. In addition to lifestyle measures, particularly avoidance of sunlight, topical and systemic therapies have proven beneficial. Prognosis is varied by disease severity, although chronic CLE notoriously results in cosmetic damage. Early recognition and management of CLE is important as it may also be the presenting manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus. Patient care includes education and close collaboration with primary care providers, dermatologists, and rheumatologists.
