This case report presents an 8-year-old girl with congenital atrichia, marked by complete hair loss and papular lesions, linked to mutations in the human hairless gene.

This report discusses the accurate diagnosis of atrichia with papular lesions, emphasizing its distinction from alopecia universalis to prevent unnecessary steroid treatment, and presents a case matching APL diagnostic criteria.

Shaving caused a mild, itchy pubic rash with small bumps and crusts.

In this study, selective overexpression of androgen receptors in muscle cells increased lean muscle mass and reduced fat mass in transgenic rodents, suggesting a potential target for drug development.

This review discusses various methods to assess bioequivalence between dermatologic drugs and highlights the potential of visual inspection and percutaneous penetration research.

In this study, patient-reported outcomes indicated that greater weight loss with GLP-1RA treatments was associated with increased reports of adverse cosmetic effects such as skin laxity, facial volume loss, and hair shedding, despite improvements in some preexisting inflammatory skin conditions.

This review describes the diverse pharmacological and phytochemical properties of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, noting its wide range of traditional medicinal uses and safety at higher extract doses.

In this study, young Ukrainian men with alopecia areata were found to generally have higher body circumference measurements, particularly in the upper limbs, lower limbs, and trunk, compared to healthy controls, suggesting potential markers for the disease and aiding personalized diagnosis and treatment approaches.

This case study describes a 31-year-old man with myotonia and a history of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and androgenic alopecia, who presented with arm and leg weakness.

This case report describes an unusual instance of eruptive syringomas in a 25-year-old man, persisting for about 10 years, which is atypical given the patient's sex and the condition's usual presentation.

In this pilot study on treating dorsal wrist ganglion, PRP injection showed limited effectiveness at 1-year follow-up compared to aspiration alone, with most PRP-treated patients experiencing ganglion recurrence, suggesting that an RCT would need at least 46 patients per group to further assess PRP's utility.

This letter warns physicians against following previous recommendations in a 1976 article on brachial plexus repair, arguing that historical surgical knowledge does not support placing markers on severed nerves for secondary repair.

In this study, GTx-027, a selective androgen receptor modulator, significantly inhibited tumor growth in certain breast cancer models and showed good tolerance in a Phase II trial with postmenopausal women.

This study found that nuclear androgen receptor expression was enhanced by dihydrotestosterone in rat gubernacular mesenchyme, but this did not affect muscle morphology or matrix composition during fetal development.

This study observed four consanguineous families with congenital atrichia with papular lesions and identified three novel mutations in the hairless gene, which may contribute to the disorder.

This case report describes a 3-year-old boy with atrichia with papular lesions, emphasizing that dermoscopy, showing the 'cluster of stars' appearance, facilitated diagnosis without needing a skin biopsy.

In an outpatient cardiology center, this study found that introducing the AHA/ACC ABI screening protocol significantly increased the frequency of ABI ordering by 31.6% for symptomatic patients.

This study found a recurrent nonsense mutation in the HR gene linked to atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families, suggesting whole exome sequencing as an efficient method for diagnosis and genetic counseling.

This report describes a case of juvenile Rhupus syndrome in an 11-year-old girl, emphasizing the condition's rarity and the diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms of juvenile idiopathic arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus.

This case report describes a 12-year-old boy with congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis and progressing acro-osteolysis, highlighting the severe complications and the necessity for early intervention.

In this case study, a 15-year-old obese boy was diagnosed with acanthosis nigricans and hair casts in the axillae, with Wood's lamp and dermoscopic examination revealing specific features, yet fungal infection was ruled out through a negative KOH test.

This study found that androgen receptors were more highly expressed in bald scalp areas compared to non-bald areas, suggesting a link between local androgen activity and hair loss in androgenic alopecia.

This review summarizes the anatomy and physiology of the arrector pili muscle and discusses its potential role in hair loss disorders, reporting no new clinical results.

This study suggests that male sex and androgenic steroid use increase the risk of atrial arrhythmias in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, especially those with desmosomal gene mutations.

This case report describes the first known instance of dermatomyositis-related panniculitis in the neck and mediastinal region, effectively treated with corticosteroids, dapsone, and colchicine.

This review discusses drug repositioning for cardiometabolic disorders and reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize its potential benefits, such as known safety profiles and reduced development costs compared to new drug development.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of pincer nail deformity in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus, potentially linked to Raynaud's phenomena as a contributing factor.

This study discovered that adipose tissue infiltration at the isthmus level appears significantly more often in frontal fibrosing alopecia cases compared to controls, suggesting a potential role in the condition's pathology.
