This study reported that despite treatment, patients with severe thallium poisoning experienced lasting visual impairment and partial recovery of polyneuropathy over two years, with hair loss fully reversing.

This article discusses the clinical features, diagnosis, and management of acute radiation syndrome, using a case of a boy exposed to radioactive material in the desert, but reports no new research findings.

This case report details a 71-year-old man diagnosed with Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and endoscopic evaluation due to the disease's progressive nature and significant mortality risk.

This study found that adding zinc to the drinking water improved hair coat and skin condition in moustached marmosets with symptoms resembling zinc deficiency.

In this case report, a one-year-old male husky with canine demodicosis exhibited significant improvement in skin condition after receiving treatment with Nexgard®, antibiotics, and supportive therapies, suggesting Nexgard® as an effective option for managing this condition.

In this study, researchers identified four novel variants in the FGF5 gene associated with the long-haired phenotype in dogs, suggesting additional unexplored genetic factors contribute to this trait beyond the known Lh1-Lh5 alleles.

This study assessed breeding value estimation methods for Korean Sapsaree dogs, finding varied accuracy across BLUP approaches and identifying significant genomic regions affecting traits like body height and hair length. The researchers suggest these findings can enhance breeding strategies for this culturally significant breed.

This review discusses two genetic disorders affecting biotin metabolism, each resulting in distinctive skin and hair manifestations, and outlines the associated serious metabolic complications.

This study suggests that recombinant Lumpy Skin Disease Virus strains pose a severe threat to yaks in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, causing high mortality and emphasizing the need for targeted control strategies.

In this study, researchers found that both the EU-TIRADS and Bethesda systems exhibited high specificity but suboptimal sensitivity for predicting thyroid nodule malignancy in patients who underwent surgery, with Bethesda system showing particularly high specificity in this postoperative population.

This study found that ocular and mucocutaneous sequelae are common in SJS/TEN survivors, with exposure to sulfadoxine and severe acute ocular involvement identified as significant risk factors for ocular sequelae.

This study developed an ultrahigh-power sonicator to improve protein extraction from hair shafts, followed by advanced proteomic analysis, identifying 239 differentially expressed proteins in fetal growth restriction cases compared to healthy controls, which were validated as potential biomarkers for perinatal diagnostics.

This study found that hydrophilic carbon dots (Lys-CA-CDs) induced bovine serum albumin to form more wormlike fibrils, while inhibiting hen egg white lysozyme from forming hair-like fibrils.

In this study, sandalore was found to activate OR2AT4, which inhibits senescent cell traits and restores proliferation in human keratinocytes, suggesting potential anti-aging applications.

This study suggests that CSLD1 is key to nitrogen-dependent root hair elongation and regulation of AMT1;2 expression in rice roots.

This study introduced a rapid rehydration approach for creating customizable, multifunctional hydrogel sensors, enabling precise detection of surface deformations and easy integration of layers, highlighting its potential for standardized and adaptable manufacturing of wearable devices.

This study found that fermenting Dendrobium officinale with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CCFM8661 and other strains increased polysaccharide yields and skin care activity, particularly with CCFM8631, which showed significant improvements in skin cell protection and inflammation reduction in both cell cultures and mouse models.

In this study, researchers identified a recurrent nonsense mutation, c.409C>T (p.Arg137*), in the COL7A1 gene through whole exome sequencing in a family with autosomal recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, demonstrating the importance of this method for diagnosing genetically complex conditions.

This study suggests that the methanol extract of Buxus wallichiana has promising antioxidant properties and may promote hair growth, with varying effectiveness depending on the dosage and application form.

This article discusses the pulmonary manifestations of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome, noting diagnostic challenges in differentiating it from other lung conditions, and underlines the need for further research on folliculin's role in cyst formation.

This study examined the follicular unit density in the scalp and beard donor areas of Indian men undergoing hair restoration surgery, reporting mean densities of 78.2/cm² and 49.7/cm² respectively, and proposed guidelines for safe follicular unit extraction.

This study found that LY320236 is a competitive inhibitor of type I and a non-competitive inhibitor of type II steroid 5alpha-reductase, indicating its potential as a dual inhibitor with differing modes of activity.

This study used TMT-based quantitative proteomics to analyze the development of secondary hair follicles in fetal sheep, revealing increased follicle density and key proteins involved, such as COL1A1 and THBS4, indicating their potential role in wool quality traits.
