This paper outlines the clinical features of artefactual skin disorder, emphasizing the complexities in diagnosing the self-inflicted lesions that patients deny, and underscores the importance of integrating dermatological, psychiatric, and psychological treatment approaches.

This study concluded that standard decontamination procedures do not fully remove external contamination from post mortem hair specimens, which complicates using hair analysis to assess long-term drug exposure.

This case study reported a rare occurrence of cicatricial alopecia linked to zolpidem-induced sleep-related amnestic behavior, highlighting the importance of a comprehensive medication history for accurate diagnosis.

This study highlights the importance of recognizing artifacts in trichoscopy, as certain cosmetic products can mimic signs of early androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that standard decontamination procedures may not fully remove external contamination in post mortem hair specimens, complicating the interpretation of drug detection in such samples.

This article discusses various aspects of trichoscopy for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders and reports no clinical results, offering guidance and highlighting pitfalls for better application of this tool by dermatologists.

This study introduced a novel, weakly supervised method for segmenting hair in Scanning Electron Microscope images using simple image-level annotations, achieving over 30% improvement in mean Hausdorff Distance compared to Unet and SAM, while enhancing interpretability and refinement.

This study introduced a viscoelastic dry electrode that successfully reduces motion artifacts in EP monitoring on hairy skin, maintaining stable performance for up to 48 days.

The atlas is a useful, affordable guide for skin disease pathology, despite lacking color images.

This article proposes a new classification, the Obsessive-Compulsive Insight Continuum, to help dermatologists better understand and diagnose skin disorders with obsessive-compulsive features.

This review discusses the challenges of diagnosing and managing somatization in dermatology patients, highlighting the need for comprehensive evaluation of unexplained dermatologic symptoms, and reports no new results.

In this study, researchers highlighted the complexity of managing psychocutaneous disorders, emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach involving dermatologists, psychiatrists, family physicians, and social support to address associated psychiatric diagnoses, risk factors like suicide, and ensure effective treatment.

This study presents a new approach to automatically remove hair artifacts from dermoscopic images, which reportedly performed well compared to existing methods like DullRazor using the PH2 datasets.

This case report highlights the importance of considering artefacts like artificial hair fibers during trichoscopy, as they can interfere with the accurate diagnosis of hair conditions.

This study found that nanoparticles can penetrate the skin, but artifacts produced during specimen preparation complicate accurate observation, and proposed a method for reducing errors in imaging quantum dots as tracers.

This study found that in vivo confocal scanning laser microscopy accurately quantifies neogenic hair follicles in mice, producing results similar to histology while avoiding fixation artifacts.

This study proposes a method for automatically removing hairs from skin lesion images by using edge-tangent flow for hair detection and texture synthesis for restoring occluded regions with minimal artifacts.

This study demonstrates a sample preparation method for wool follicles that allows for clear keratin labeling and ultrastructural preservation in microscopy, reducing common artefacts from conventional fixation techniques.

In this case study, authors reported that a 43-year-old female patient initially showed persistently high testosterone levels due to immunoassay interference, later verified as normal using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), highlighting the need to consider assay artifacts in diagnosing hyperandrogenism without clinical signs.

This study reports that hair fibers degrade most in acidic sandy clay, while silicone oil treatment is effective for conserving various hair types and artifacts.

This study found that examining hair morphology provides deeper insights than classification, suggesting a potential population stratification artefact between hair curvature and cross-sectional shapes in the examined admixed African-European sample.

This review discusses the role of neural crest stem cell-like states in adult neural crest-derived tissues, suggesting they may contribute to tissue repair by generating new cell types and activating repair programs.

Three new techniques simplify and improve the preparation of tissue samples for skin cancer surgery.

Finasteride lowers prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors and sexual side effects.

Women experience various skin issues at different life stages, requiring careful treatment and awareness.

This article discusses the structure of hair follicles and their significance in evaluating hair disorders, but it does not report any new research findings.

This study utilized magnetic resonance imaging to noninvasively visualize and differentiate skin structures in rat skin, finding a significant correlation between MRI data and histological areas.

Keratin fibers in hair twist left-handed.

This study reports that in vitro experiments suggest a new biomagnetic cross-talk between red blood cells and human hair could be a factor in red blood cell deformation.

This study reports that in vitro experiments suggest biomagnetic cross-talk between red blood cells and human hairs as a potential factor influencing RBC deformation.
