This study found that skin bacteria contribute to regeneration in wound healing and WIHN by promoting IL-1β signaling, challenging the view that sterility is always beneficial for healing small wounds.

In this case report, a 31-year-old male with refractory sycosis barbae achieved complete remission after 4 months of treatment with bimekizumab, suggesting this dual inhibitor of interleukin-17A and IL-17F may be a promising therapy for this condition.

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 randomized controlled trial, both Botulinum Toxin-A and Triamcinolone Acetonide showed substantial effectiveness in treating patchy Alopecia Areata, but Botulinum Toxin-A avoided complications while Triamcinolone led to skin atrophy in 16.7% of patients.

This study highlights two newly discovered metabolic disorders of biotin, showing distinct skin and hair symptoms and severe complications like acidosis and ketosis.

This case report describes two siblings with gray patch tinea capitis, highlighting exposure to cats and inappropriate corticosteroid use as risk factors, and treatment with griseofulvin and terbinafine.

This study found that the green alga Botryococcus terribilis and its novel compounds significantly promoted hair growth marker gene expression in hair follicle dermal papilla cells without cytotoxic effects.

In this study, researchers isolated gram-positive bacteria from acne lesions in 50 patients, finding that Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides were present at varying frequencies, indicating multimicrobial causes for acne vulgaris.

This study concludes that tiny infundibular cysts, rather than comedones, are the primary lesions in chloracne.

This study observed that grey patch is the most common variant of tinea capitis in northeastern India, with T. violaceum being the predominant fungal isolate.

This article reviews the potential link between botulinum toxin treatment and alopecia but provides no new research findings.

This report on identical female twins with folliculitis decalvans suggests a possible genetic component to the disease, marking the first such case in twins.

This study found that the twisted hair shafts characteristic of pili torti may result from uneven outer root sheath cell development, leading to irregular hair shaft modeling and twisting.

This review reports favorable outcomes for botulinum toxin injections in androgenic alopecia treatment, but findings are limited by small sample sizes and lack of control groups.

This review details 171 plant taxa traditionally used in Turkey to treat boils, but reports no new clinical results; the authors assess the literature on biological activities of commonly used genera like Allium and Brassica.

This study observed that in human scalp hair follicles, BTNL2 expression is lower in stressed conditions, which correlates with increased cytotoxic activity by gamma/delta and CD8+ T cells, suggesting a possible role for BTNL2 in controlling immune responses relevant to alopecia areata.

In a guinea pig model of dermatophytosis, this study found that subcutaneous CD101, dosed once weekly, demonstrated significant clinical and mycological efficacy compared to the vehicle control and the oral antifungal terbinafine, suggesting potential for CD101 in treating fungal skin infections.

This case series examined five male burn patients who developed folliculitis barbae or pseudofolliculitis barbae, highlighting the underreported nature of these complications and the variability in treatment response. The authors call for standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols for these conditions in burn survivors.

This article discusses the structure and function of sebaceous glands and their role in skin moisture but reports no new research findings.

This study found that patients with Bachmann-Bupp syndrome treated with DFMO showed improvements in hair growth, muscle tone, and development.

In this study, Pleuropterus cilinervis extracts and animal milk fermented with Lactobacillus rhamnosus were found to enhance hair re-growth in mice more than the positive control treatment.

In this study, baricitinib was evaluated for its effectiveness in promoting concurrent regrowth of scalp hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes in patients with severe alopecia areata, showing clinically meaningful responses compared to placebo.

This study presents a microscopic analysis of the pruritic variant of trichostasis spinulosa in two patients and reviews existing literature, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, a 5-year-old Angus bull experienced systemic granulomatous disease and vasculitis potentially associated with grazing on hairy vetch, but other bulls in the same pasture showed no symptoms, suggesting variability in disease manifestation from similar exposures.

This review discusses the use of botulinum toxin as a treatment for chronic headache, highlighting its safety and acceptance among patients, but reports no new clinical results; the authors stress the need for comparative studies with standard treatments.

This study reports that a 6–12-week course of oral griseofulvin can achieve mycological cures in 70% to 100% of tinea capitis cases.

This study found that bacterial biofilms were present in only two out of ten acute hidradenitis suppurativa lesions examined, suggesting a limited primary role for biofilms in early-stage lesions.

This case study reports a 30-year-old woman with a mixed infection of white piedra and pediculosis capitis, indicating the difficulty in distinguishing between these conditions upon casual examination.

This study suggests that corkscrew hairs in tinea capitis result from internal hair damage by Trichophyton violaceum and external resistance from scalp scales.

This report presents a case of pili torti in a young girl with citrullinemia, a novel association not previously documented.
