This case analysis found that trichoscopy is a valuable tool for diagnosing and monitoring treatment progress in tinea capitis by distinguishing between Microsporum and Trichophyton etiologies.

This review highlights that various components of "skin boosters," such as exosomes and hyaluronic acid, may have potential applications beyond aesthetics, acting as adjunct therapies for improving skin integrity and promoting tissue regeneration, though more research is needed to support their use as primary treatments.

In this case report, a 2-month-old girl with tinea capitis showed significant improvement after treatment with oral griseofulvin and topical ketoconazole. The study emphasizes the importance of layered diagnostics and systemic therapy for effective management of this fungal scalp infection in infants.

This study found that microemulsions containing ethanol extract of cayenne pepper were effective in enhancing hair growth in rabbits, with the 0.2% concentration achieving the most significant results over a 30-day period, compared to a negative control.

This study suggests that using a dermoscope, a handheld microscope, can effectively help distinguish between Pityrosporum folliculitis and Acne vulgaris by revealing unique lesion characteristics that are not visible to the naked eye, offering a practical diagnostic alternative when KOH examinations are unavailable.

This case study reported that scalp dermoscopy, or trichoscopy, provided a useful noninvasive method to evaluate and confirm hair regrowth in a child treated for tinea capitis.

This study found no significant association between premature hair graying and serum ferritin or vitamin D levels in young adult males at Universitas Sumatera Utara.

This study found that lower zinc serum levels may contribute to premature hair graying in college students at Universitas Sumatera Utara.

This case report concludes that early-onset alopecia areata does not independently predict poorer long-term outcomes, with prognosis more strongly influenced by baseline severity and treatment response.

In this study at the IPB Taman Kencana campus, researchers found that all examined stray cats were infested with ectoparasites, primarily Ctenocephalides felis fleas, leading to health issues such as anemia and stress.

In this study, stray cats in Bogor exhibited skin and fur issues, abnormal respiratory and heart rates likely due to stress, increased eosinophils, low platelet counts suggesting parasitic infestation, and hyposthenuria in urine tests potentially linked to low water intake or fasting.

This case study describes a 29-year-old woman diagnosed with both systemic lupus erythematosus and Graves' disease, illustrating a specific combination of autoimmune conditions within Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes.

This study found that individuals with premature hair graying had significantly lower levels of antioxidants compared to controls, but the severity of graying did not significantly correlate with oxidative stress levels.

The editorial introduces studies on various cosmetic and laser treatments, their effectiveness, and posttreatment care.

This study found that red ginseng oil may enhance hair growth and protect skin from UV damage in mouse models by promoting regenerative processes and reducing inflammation.

This study presents a DNA-analytical method that can reliably identify and differentiate cashmere, fine wool, yak, and camel hair fibers in both untreated and processed samples.

This study found that xylanase and pectinase enzymes clean wool and specialty hair fibers as effectively as soap, without causing physical damage, whereas resinase was not effective.

This study sequenced and analyzed the goat skin transcriptome, revealing genes involved in signal transduction and cell communication that are differentially expressed during hair growth phases, providing insights for Cashmere goat breeding.

This study observed that local injection of minoxidil effectively prevented Ara-C-induced alopecia in newborn rats, while topical application was ineffective.

This study found that seasonal changes significantly affected hair follicle activity and fibre growth in Merghoz goats, with variations seen in feed intake and growth patterns across different seasons.

Improving knowledge and practices in animal fibre production is crucial to meet market demands and potentially revive natural fibres.

In this study, the PLP2 gene was found to promote secondary hair follicle development in Liaoning cashmere goats, with its expression negatively regulated by melatonin and potentially affecting follicle development via the BMP pathway.

Alopecia areata is relatively common in children, has a variable course, and shows different responses to treatment; thyroid testing is recommended for those affected.

This study found that temperature significantly affects the mechanical properties of rabbit hair fibers, with increased tensile strain and decreased breaking strength in humid conditions.

Dietary choices, especially fat type, can influence health.

This study describes a staining technique that differentiates medullary from cortical keratin in sheep and goat hair using Ziehl-Neelsen's carbol-fuchsin in skin biopsy sections.

This study reviews the epidemiology of alopecia areata in the UK, focusing on its links to mental health comorbidities, autoimmune/atopic associations, and common infection incidences.

This study found that in Alcorcón, Spain, migrants from Sub-Saharan Africa, the Caribbean, and Latin-America had a higher risk of COVID-19 infection during the first wave compared to Spaniards.

This review article discusses the aesthetic impacts of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic (semaglutide), including "Ozempic Face," skin sagging, and loss of lean mass, and explores potential recovery methods such as biostimulators, HIFU, endolaser, and PRP.

This narrative review examines advancements in regenerative aesthetic medicine, focusing on injectable modalities like PRP, polynucleotides, and exosomes, but highlights the need for more robust evidence and standardization in clinical applications.
