This report describes the 2024 American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting in San Diego, notable for attracting nearly 20,000 attendees with 339 sessions covering a wide range of dermatological topics, making it potentially the largest dermatology meeting by attendance.

This study identified nine pathogenic variants in the PADI3 gene, and variants in the S100A3 and TCHH genes, which may disrupt protein function and contribute to central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

This case report presents a rare instance of recurrent ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome due to PBMAH, coinciding with the development of a pheochromocytoma, highlighting the need for thorough reevaluation in similar recurring cases.

This study found that combining the PAXMAN scalp cooling system with HairRepro MEDI α lotion led to a 50% success rate in reducing chemotherapy-induced alopecia and achieved complete hair regrowth by 3 months in Japanese breast cancer patients, suggesting enhanced efficacy over scalp cooling alone.

This study reports the first case of airway involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle syndrome, highlighting successful management of severe subglottic stenosis with serial endoscopic balloon dilations in a 2-month-old female.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and highlights diagnostic features, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the value of trichoscopy and histology in diagnosis.

This study found that over 80% of women treated with paclitaxel who used a hypothermic glycerin-based hydrogel cap preserved at least 50% of their initial hair volume, suggesting scalp cooling may effectively prevent chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This study found that Cacumen Platycladi volatile oil promotes dermal papilla cell proliferation and enhances hair growth in mice, outperforming minoxidil and showing no obvious cytotoxic effects.
