This article emphasizes the importance of educating dermatologists to reduce diagnostic delays in FD and highlights the need to screen for comorbid hidradenitis suppurativa and obtain bacterial cultures for effective treatment planning.

This study found that progesterone levels were higher and increased significantly throughout pregnancy, contrasting with stable levels in non-pregnant women.

This article discusses the importance of optimizing treatment protocols for chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize improving patient outcomes and quality of life.

This review found that hair loss is nearly universal by mid-life, significantly impacts psychological well-being, especially for women, and that users often discontinue the leading treatment, minoxidil, due to adherence issues.

This review highlights that hair loss is nearly universal by mid-life, poses significant psychological burdens, particularly for women, and shows that many discontinue minoxidil due to adherence challenges.

This review elaborates on the skin side effects of chemotherapy and emphasizes identifying and managing both common and life-threatening skin reactions, without presenting new clinical findings.

In this study, a syndrome of zinc deficiency was observed in adults receiving intravenous feeding, with zinc supplementation improving symptoms except for delayed hair regrowth.

This review discusses the cutaneous symptoms associated with COVID-19 and their potential use in diagnosing and assessing the severity of the disease, but it reports no new clinical results.

Repetin is a protein involved in skin and hair development, binding calcium and compensating for other proteins when needed.

This case report associates severe zinc deficiency with long-term total parenteral nutrition, suggesting the need for trace element supplementation in such nutritional management.

This study found HLA and beta 2-microglobulin antigens in various skin structures, with specific localization patterns in keratinocytes and hair follicle components, but not in eccrine or apocrine glands.

This review discusses the role of mechanical forces in skin homeostasis and disease development, including their impact on conditions like keloids, androgenetic alopecia, and acral melanoma, and reports no clinical results; the authors propose modifying these forces as a potential therapeutic strategy.

This study describes five patients with porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus, a rare skin disorder, highlighting its clinical features and proposing a new encompassing term for related conditions.

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 article reviews common skin eruptions in chemotherapy patients and discusses how recognizing these patterns can help avoid unnecessary changes to cancer treatment; it reports no new clinical results.

This study reports two cases of acquired zinc deficiency presenting with skin symptoms such as hair loss and acrodermatitis, suggesting these manifestations may help in diagnosing zinc deficiency in humans.

This study found that obesity is associated with several skin conditions, such as striae and pseudoacanthosis nigricans, which may serve as markers of excessive weight.

This review discusses the role of complement activation in SLE and suggests that while monitoring C3 and C4 remains important, increased levels of cell-bound complement activation products may better indicate disease activity.

This article reviews behavioral dermatology, highlighting the importance of integrating physiological, social, and environmental factors in managing dermatologic conditions with behavioral components, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that basonuclin may act as a tissue-specific transcription factor for ribosomal RNA genes by interacting with the promoter region necessary for high transcription levels in human keratinocytes.

This study used fibre optic confocal imaging to visualize subsurface structures in live mouse skin, revealing cellular details and blood vessel networks that dynamic events could be studied in vivo.

This article describes a case of multiple perifollicular fibromas and suggests that cases previously reported as such might actually be instances of Birt‐Hogg‐Dubé syndrome.

The researchers reported that a novel leave-on treatment containing caffeine, niacinamide, panthenol, dimethicone, and an acrylate polymer significantly increased the diameter and improved the mechanical properties of scalp hair fibers, suggesting it may help mitigate thinning hair.

This review highlights the potential for clinicians to recognize skin manifestations as a straightforward method to detect insulin resistance and improve management of diabetes and obesity.

This study found that livedoid and acro-ischemic skin manifestations were significantly associated with severe COVID-19, while chilblains-like eruptions appeared in less severe cases.

This review discusses the classic skin characteristics of hypothyroidism, notably generalized myxedema caused by increased glycosaminoglycan deposition, and reports no clinical results.

This review explores various hormone influences on hair growth and loss beyond androgens, noting that clinical hormone therapies for aging may impact hair due to associated hormone level reductions, but reports no new empirical results.

This case series reports three cats diagnosed with hypersomatotropism due to GH-secreting pituitary adenomas without concurrent diabetes mellitus, highlighting the potential for underdiagnosis in non-diabetic cats.

In this study, researchers observed that 90% of patients with PCOS had cutaneous manifestations, with acne most common, and found associations between these skin conditions and high insulin or testosterone levels.

This review highlights the role of dermatologists in detecting early cutaneous signs of obesity-related metabolic syndrome, which may enable earlier treatment to prevent long-term consequences; it reports no new clinical results.
