This article describes the characteristics and management of hypertrichosis induced by low-dose oral minoxidil used for hair disorders, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes a woman with hyperandrogenism and menstrual disturbances, where an ovarian steroid cell tumor was identified and removed, leading to resolution of symptoms.

Understanding how our bodies interact with mosquito-borne viruses is crucial because there are few treatments and vaccines.

This case report observed that a 20-year-old female with recurrent DVTs experienced reversible alopecia with various anticoagulants, except fondaparinux which allowed long-term treatment without this side effect.

This paper reviews the historical use and contemporary relevance of plant-derived cosmetics, focusing on Suriname's herbal cosmetics industry and the potential to establish a beauty products industry there, without presenting new findings.

This study found no evidence that HDGF expression transforms melanocytes into tumors in a mouse model, although it may play a role in cell differentiation and tumor progression.

In this study, low-dose oral minoxidil was found to improve hair density in 80% of pediatric patients with androgenetic alopecia or telogen effluvium, with mild side effects primarily reported.

This study in rats found that a new hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin formulation of minoxidil reduced the adverse cardiovascular and proliferative effects seen with traditional minoxidil solutions.

This study evaluated oral dutasteride for male androgenetic alopecia in a real-world setting, reporting that it effectively improved hair conditions in 90% of patients using monotherapy, with a good safety profile, particularly at low doses.

This study found that fluconazole was associated with telogen effluvium in both a rat model and human patients, although retinoic acid levels were not identified as a causal factor.

In this cadaveric study, lipofilling was found easier to perform on the face than the scalp, whereas nanofat grafting was particularly suited for precise injections in scalp areas, suggesting a combination of techniques could aid in treating alopecia.

This study highlights that scalp hair loss is an underreported side effect of somatostatin analogs therapy, potentially linked to decreased GH/IGF-1 levels or a direct drug effect.

This case report indicates that retinoblastoma can occur in a microphthalmic eye and recommends using multiple imaging techniques due to potential differences in calcification visibility.

This study reviews international perspectives on using platelet-rich plasma, stem cells, and exosomes, highlighting their expanding applications in fields like oncology, dermatology, neurology, and rheumatology, with an emphasis on ethical considerations and the need for further research.

This review examines advances in computer-aided drug design for targeting membrane proteins in prostate cancer but reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the potential of structural insights and compound screening for therapeutic development.

In this study, researchers identified significant differences in protein expression patterns in scalps affected by central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, notably upregulation of immune pathways and fibrosis markers and downregulation of metabolic proteins, suggesting unique disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.

This study found that the rs2228570 polymorphism of the VDR gene was associated with an increased risk of melanoma, while the rs731236 polymorphism was linked to a protective effect against the disease in Colombian patients.

In this study, researchers found that in mice, gonadal hormones and biological sex do not affect the expression of SARS-CoV-2 entry proteins ACE-2 and TMPRSS-2 in the respiratory tract, regardless of disease state.

In this study, among patients taking hydroxychloroquine for dermatologic or rheumatologic conditions, none developed symptoms suggestive of SARS-CoV-2 infection despite Italy's high infection rate at the time.

This paper highlights the growing scientific interest in plant extracts for cosmetics due to their potential benefits, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, and protective properties, while emphasizing the need for quality and safety assessment to mitigate possible adverse reactions.

This study identified a 290 Kb microduplication in chromosome 1q22 in a family with members exhibiting neurodevelopmental disorders, suggesting a link between this genetic alteration and the observed neurological symptoms.

This study found that novel compound heterozygous mutations in the desmoplakin gene lead to hair shaft abnormalities and can result in lethal cardiomyopathy.

This study found that applying Crescina® HFSC lotion for four months effectively increased hair growth and reduced hair loss in males with androgenetic alopecia.

This article discusses CD10 immunohistochemistry in prurigo nodularis and reports no new research findings.

The researchers reported that applying proteolytic enzymes to mice skin negatively affected hair follicles, leading to degeneration and potential impairment of stem cells from the bulge area.

In this study using the C3H/HeJ mouse model of alopecia areata, researchers found that hyperexpanded CD8⁺ T cell clones were sufficient to initiate disease, establishing a causal link between T cell clonality and pathogenicity.

This study identified the genes for pyochelin siderophore biosynthesis as a novel target regulated by the heme-responsive PrrH sRNA in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

In this case report, a 64-year-old patient with chemotherapy-induced alopecia was treated with oral minoxidil and experienced good results, suggesting a potential new therapy for this challenging condition.

This study found that individuals with heterozygous truncation-type variants in the *DSP* gene exhibit lower skin temperature and higher transepidermal water loss, with specific microscopic skin changes and pseudomonilethrix.

This case report details the diagnosis of monilethrix in a 4-year-old boy, characterized by brittle hair and specific dermoscopic findings, and highlights the condition's hereditary nature and management through avoiding mechanical hair damage.
