A man with both skin lesions and lung cancer improved quickly with chemotherapy, suggesting the skin condition might be a reaction to immune system injury.

This article reviews potential causes for angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia, a benign vascular tumor often found in middle-aged adults, and reports no new clinical findings.

This chapter reviews the clinical and morphological diagnostic features of various hair dysplasias, including atypical pili torti, pseudomonilethrix, and trichothiodystrophy, and reports no new results.

In this study, no significant association between androgenetic alopecia and increased blood pressure or serum aldosterone levels was observed among a small sample of Saudi Arabian men.

This study identified miR-200c-3p as influencing key genes in the EGFR resistance pathway, suggesting its potential theranostic role in addressing issues related to this pathway.

This study in Saudi female patients with hyperprolactinemia found that pituitary imaging is often indicated due to a high prevalence of pituitary anomalies, with prolactin levels showing moderate accuracy in predicting adenomas and a suggested cutoff level of >38.71 ng/mL for diagnosis.

This study reviewed 39 studies with 3204 patients to identify characteristic trichoscopic findings in alopecia areata, highlighting yellow and black dots, broken, short vellus, and tapering hairs as key indicators. It found no single diagnostic trichoscopic finding but observed trichoscopy's utility in monitoring treatment response.

This review outlines that in women with PCOS, microRNAs (miRNAs) are abnormally expressed in various tissues compared to those without the condition, suggesting these miRNAs as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets, given their role in pathways critical to PCOS and potential interactions affecting reproductive outcomes.

This article reviews how epigenetic modifications, particularly DNA methylation, histone modification, and non-coding RNA pathways, affect the development of skin diseases, suggesting potential for personalized treatments that target these changes.

In this study, no association was found between androgenetic alopecia and increased blood pressure or higher serum aldosterone levels in the examined hospital-based sample from Saudi Arabia.

In this study, researchers found that the "U" allele of the Tru9I variant may be associated with low vitamin D levels and altered VDR gene activity in alopecia areata patients, while the "u" allele might have a protective role against developing the condition.

In this study, no significant association was found between androgenetic alopecia and increased risks of hypertension or hyperaldosteronism among male participants in Saudi Arabia, suggesting that AGA should not be considered an indicator for these conditions.

Oral minoxidil is a potential treatment for hair loss.

This review found that oral minoxidil, particularly in low doses, is effective and safe for treating various types of hair loss, including androgenic alopecia, and may offer advantages over other treatments, such as improved convenience and enhancement of male sexual function.

This study found that vitamin D levels were lower in alopecia areata patients, with trichoscopic features like broken hairs and black dots more prevalent in cases with vitamin D deficiency.

This study suggests an association between metabolic syndrome and androgenic alopecia severity, though this association was not statistically significant.

This study found significant gender-based differences in forehead dimensions among 297 participants, with males showing larger vertical measurements, which could inform applications in forensic identification, cosmetic surgery, and anthropological research.

This study in Saudi Arabia found that 55.9% of participants reported premature graying of hair before age 30, with risk factors including genetic, health, and lifestyle aspects such as smoking, anxiety, nutrient deficiencies, and family history.

This study reports that from 1990 to 2023, Saudi Arabia experienced a 117.3% increase in age-standardised diabetes prevalence, primarily due to type 2 diabetes mellitus, with projections indicating continued growth in prevalence and disability, despite forecasted reductions in diabetes-related mortality by 2030.

This study observed that premature hair graying was more prevalent among obese individuals, those with vitamin B12 and D deficiencies, smokers, and people with high stress, regardless of whether they were medical or non-medical students at a university in Saudi Arabia.

This article discusses the JCCP's new Premises Standards for aesthetic practitioners, focusing on how these guidelines help ensure patient safety, and reports no new research findings.

This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib for treating severe alopecia areata in five patients, finding that three responded favorably with mild side effects, supporting its potential use based on existing research.

This case report describes a flap advancement technique following skin expansion as a successful method to address primary essential cutis verticis gyrata, preserving hair growth and improving cosmetic outcomes.

This review discusses recent findings on how root hairs and root exudate secretion play critical roles in recruiting nitrogen-fixing bacteria, potentially aiding the development of cereal crops that can use atmospheric nitrogen, which may reduce reliance on synthetic fertilizers.

This systematic review suggests that current evidence does not support routinely discontinuing gender-affirming hormone treatments before surgery, especially testosterone and spironolactone, due to limited data on related perioperative risks.

This study reports an increased frequency of the DI genotype of the ACE gene polymorphism among women with PCOS, notably in those with hyperandrogenism, and an association of the II genotype with insulin resistance.

This review discusses the evaluation of hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men across different life stages and presents biomarkers used for diagnosing male hypogonadism, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers developed and tested a gel containing apocynin-loaded nanoparticles that showed promising results in treating rheumatoid arthritis in rats, suggesting potential for novel topical treatments in inflammatory conditions.

This review discusses the roles of adiponectin and bradykinin in skin homeostasis and pathologies, highlighting the need for further research into their therapeutic potential but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that trichoscopy is essential for evaluating the severity of alopecia areata and predicting treatment responses, contributing to more personalized patient management.
