This case report details two consanguineous patients with cerebral autosomal recessive arteriopathy, both having the same HTRA1 gene mutation, but exhibiting different clinical presentations, including one with epileptic seizures and lobar hemorrhages—previously undocumented in this condition.

This case report discusses a 25-year-old woman diagnosed with acne necrotica varioliformis and highlights the diagnostic challenges and potential associations with systemic diseases.

This study found that an injectable calcium alginate-amelogenin hydrogel is biocompatible, degradable, anti-inflammatory, and promotes osteogenesis, which may enhance the bone healing process in jaw and facial bone defect areas by mediating the bone immune microenvironment.

Acitretin significantly reduced inflammatory attacks in a woman with Naevus Comedonicus Syndrome but caused side effects.

This study found that azelaic acid entrapped in transethosomes exhibited enhanced antidermatophyte activity and improved treatment outcomes in guinea pig models of dermatophytosis compared to free azelaic acid.

This study found that topical phenylephrine, an α1-AR agonist, significantly reduced hair shedding and increased epilation force threshold in women experiencing traction alopecia during cosmetic procedures.
