This review found that oral methotrexate plus oral prednisone may improve disease activity or damage in juvenile active morphea compared to placebo plus prednisone, but adverse events may slightly increase.

This study introduces a new multimodal imaging technology to visualize and quantify cell dynamics in natural skin over long durations, demonstrated in GFP bone marrow-transplanted mice, to study dynamic skin regeneration.

This case study reported a rare occurrence of lepromatous leprosy with Lucio phenomenon in a 50-year-old Indonesian living in Malaysia, highlighting the necessity for primary care practitioners, even in non-endemic areas, to recognize this serious leprosy reaction to prevent complications and transmission.

This study introduces a five-modal microscopy technique that allows label-free, in vivo observation and quantitative analysis of various wound healing processes.

This review evaluated the evidence on skin disorders linked to levodopa treatment for Parkinson's disease, suggesting a possible association with melanoma, though evidence remains inconclusive and further studies are needed.

This case report observed significant improvement in hair density and thickness in a male patient with androgenetic alopecia following the addition of mesotherapy, alongside topical minoxidil and oral finasteride, over 20 sessions, with no side effects reported.

This study on a 30-year-old male reported that single-hair follicular unit transplant effectively repigmented a stable vitiligo patch, achieving complete pigmentation in 8 weeks with no recurrence after 6 months.

This article reports on lentiginosis observed within plaques of linear atrophoderma of Moulin and discusses its potential classification as a twin-spotting phenomenon but provides no new clinical research results.

This study found that inflammatory dermatoses, especially atopic dermatitis, were the most common pediatric skin conditions at a Brazilian reference center, highlighting different patterns compared to adult skin disorders.

This report describes the first known case of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis in a woman under 40, associated with both metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This review discusses melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles and their potential role in cell-based therapy for vitiligo, reporting no new experimental results.

This review discusses the use of medical tattooing in the head and neck region as a minimally invasive option for individuals seeking to improve cosmetic appearance without surgery, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that dermatoscopy can quickly and non-invasively detect facial vellus hair involvement in patients with alopecia frontal fibrosante, occurring frequently and associated with specific facial lesions.

The journal has grown significantly and is expected to continue succeeding under new leadership.

In this study, researchers detailed various surgical techniques for treating vitiligo, including tissue grafting and cell transplantation. They highlighted recent advancements and emphasized the need for future studies to explore therapeutic mechanisms and identify biomarkers to enhance surgical efficacy.

In this study, researchers found that none of the participants were color blind and reported varying lengths of index and ring fingers among them, exploring a possible link between these finger length ratios and sex-influenced gene expression.

This study in young Ukrainian men found that specific body measurements, like shoulder width and tibia epiphysis width, are highly predictive of alopecia areata occurrence, though not for its progression, using discriminant models (p<0.001).

This study observed that both intradermotherapy with 5% minoxidil and topical minoxidil application resulted in perceived improvements in hair density and thickness among patients with androgenetic alopecia, with no significant difference between the two groups.

In this review paper, the authors explored the composition and role of lipids in human hair, highlighting their importance for hair texture, moisture retention, and tensile strength, while noting that the understanding of hair lipids' functions remains controversial and requires further research.

This article reviews the potential role of vitamin D supplementation as an adjunct to alemtuzumab therapy in multiple sclerosis management, noting its possible benefits for autoimmune comorbidities and patient adherence, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, the average force required to pluck hair was significantly lower in malnourished adults, especially those with kwashiorkor, compared to well-nourished individuals.

Isolated patchy heterochromia with pili annulati can occur without other health issues.

This case report describes a six-month-old infant with focal scalp hair heterochromia and no detectable underlying abnormalities, which was still present at a one-year follow-up.

This case study describes an uncommon variant of coudability hair in alopecia areata, where intermittent inflammatory processes result in alternating bands of lighter color and reduced hair shaft calibre.

In this study, researchers observed a rare presentation of alopecia areata characterized by hair shafts with segmental heterochromia and changes in thickness, indicating a fluctuating low-level inflammatory process with recovery periods in the hair's normal characteristics.

In this case study, researchers documented a Chinese boy with hair color changing to red and identified MC1R genetic mutations as the cause, rather than zinc deficiency, enhancing our understanding of hair heterochromia due to genetic factors.

This case report suggests that nonsynchronized segmented heterochromia in black scalp hair in a 14-year-old girl may represent premature greying unrelated to deficiencies in iron, copper, zinc, or protein.

This review discusses the diagnosis and treatment of pityriasis rubra pilaris and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that segmented heterochromic scalp hair associated with iron-deficiency anemia in a teenage girl completely recovered following iron supplementation, suggesting a role for iron in hair pigment production.
