This study reports a case of a Persian cat with Malassezia pachydermatis infection, treated with fluconazole, topical miconazole shampoo, and a skin tonic. The cat showed remarkable clinical improvement after one week and fully recovered after four weeks.

This study found that the volume of a hair follicle's dermal papilla is strongly correlated with its size, primarily due to the number of cells it contains and the volume of extracellular matrix.

This study found that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells produced more anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic cytokines on electrospun scaffolds, which enhanced wound healing and macrophage activity in a rat model.

Minoxidil promotes hair growth in male pattern baldness.

This systematic review reports that "COVID toes" and other skin manifestations can be initial signs of COVID-19, and advises immunosuppressive therapy adjustments only for infected or at-risk patients.

This study found that progesterone enhances the survival of newborn neurons in the hippocampus of adult male mice, which is associated with improved spatial learning and memory.

This study concluded that combining vertical and transverse sections of scalp biopsy specimens improves diagnostic yield for certain hair disorders without increasing costs.

Minoxidil effectively regrows hair in male pattern baldness.

This study identified the location of the genetic locus for the slick hair coat trait in cattle on bovine chromosome 20, which may contribute to heat tolerance.

In this study, a combination of irinotecan and cetuximab showed varied response rates in metastatic colorectal cancer patients, with manageable skin toxicity that improved quality of life when treated collaboratively by oncology and dermatology teams.

This study found that telogen effluvium and trichodynia are common in patients after COVID-19, and their severity may be influenced by the severity of the COVID-19 infection.

In this pilot study, 2% topical Minoxidil showed no benefit in preventing hair loss during chemotherapy for gynecologic cancers, although it was non-toxic.

This study reported that while lichen planus was not significantly linked to hepatitis C virus infection, pruritus, dry skin, and hair loss were more common in HCV patients post-interferon treatment.

Topical cyclosporine led to significant hair growth in some men with male pattern baldness.

This study suggests that human keratin fiber matrix has a well-defined nano-scale grainy structure rather than being amorphous, with grain size influenced by chemical treatments, temperature, humidity, and follicle-level factors.

In this study, gene expression profiling in mice identified fluphenazine and iloprost as potential inducers of hair growth, highlighting a new strategy for exploring hair-growth treatments in animal models.

This study identified four new genetic loci associated with acne risk and highlighted key pathways involved in its genetic predisposition, potentially explaining 9.4% of acne's phenotypic variance.

This study observed that patients with alopecia areata had decreased odds of developing stroke and a potential decreased risk of acute myocardial infarction, though the latter was not statistically significant.

This study describes patients with moderate to severe scarring alopecia of the scalp margin and suggests that traction is not the sole cause for this condition, as half of the patients had no history of harsh hairstyling practices.

This study found that a lower maintenance dose of flutamide (125 mg/day) effectively maintained the reduction in hirsutism achieved with an initial higher dose (250 mg/day) in women, without additional side effects.

This review discusses the various skin manifestations and problems related to COVID-19 and associated treatments, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that alcohol dependence is associated with altered HPA axis functioning, with AD patients showing higher hair cortisol concentrations and reduced ACTH and cortisol levels, irrespective of childhood maltreatment history.

This study observed that in pemphigus vulgaris patients, hair loss and alopecic patches may result from anti-desmoglein autoantibody-mediated acantholysis and inflammatory changes, leading to non-scarring alopecia with potential for regrowth after treatment.

This study found that the oral JAK inhibitors ritlecitinib and brepocitinib were effective in maintaining hair regrowth in alopecia areata with continuous use, though efficacy decreased after withdrawal.

This study found that the penetration enhancer SEPA™ significantly increased both the speed and amount of hair growth from minoxidil in balding stumptail macaques compared to Rogaine®.

This study developed and validated a sensitive liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry method to measure aristolochic acid‐I in rat plasma, successfully applying it to pharmacokinetic research.

This article reviews recent advances and therapeutic approaches in treating alopecia areata, highlighting new potential treatments like pulse corticosteroid therapy, but reports no new research findings.

This study describes the synthesis of finasteride from 4-androstene-3,17-dione in a seven-step process with an overall yield of 18.6%.

This study reviews advancements in hair restoration surgery, noting that follicular unit excision significantly improves outcomes by enabling graft harvesting without scarring and reporting a graft transection rate under 4% when conducted with advanced equipment.

This study observed no significant improvement of mesotherapy over 5% topical minoxidil for male androgenic alopecia, despite a small increase in hair shaft diameter variation with mesotherapy.
