January 2018 in “Journal of clinical & experimental dermatology research” This study presented cases of severe and permanent nail changes resembling lichen planus in patients with chilblain lupus erythematosus, suggesting a unique pattern related to cold exposure rather than typical histopathology findings.
June 2025 in “British Journal of Dermatology” This case series highlighted three pediatric patients with congenital nail anomalies, revealing underlying developmental or genetic issues such as symbrachydactyly and potential Adams–Oliver syndrome, underscoring the critical role of dermatologists in early detection and diagnosis of these conditions.
June 2020 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that the HoxC gene cluster is crucial for the development of hair and nails in mice, with key regulation by two mammalian-specific enhancers.
This study identified several genetic mutations linked to hereditary skin and hair disorders in consanguineous families from remote areas of Pakistan, enhancing understanding of the molecular basis of these conditions.
