This article discusses topical keratolytic therapy for keratosis pilaris, highlighting potential benefits while noting limitations in the current evidence base, and reports no clinical results.

This study found that chondroitin sulfate levels were higher than hyaluronic acid in skin and hair follicle samples, with the highest concentration observed in prekeratin of hair follicles and wool fibers.

This study found that ingenol mebutate treatment led to gene expression changes in actinic keratoses, with complete lesion clearance in 40% of patients and identified genetic markers potentially predicting treatment response.

This study found that combining red light therapy with oral beta-carotene significantly improved photoaging treatment outcomes compared to red light therapy alone, with Group A showing a 56.12% reduction in photoaging scores over 12 weeks versus 44.78% in Group B.

This article reviews keratosis follicularis squamosa, a keratinizing disorder predominantly found in the Japanese population, but reports no new clinical results.

This review found that while treating keratosis pilaris is challenging, current therapies can lead to significant improvement, particularly when tailored to the individual's specific disease phenotype and concerns.

This study analyzed the composition and cost of 50 cosmetic body scrubs for keratosis pilaris, finding that chemical exfoliants with glycolic acid may reduce symptoms by enhancing skin shedding and reducing water loss, but further clinical studies are needed to confirm their effectiveness.

This review discusses plant extracts for dermatological use, highlighting evidence that some can reduce edema in chronic venous insufficiency or help treat actinic keratoses, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, PEVIII, a nanocomposite chitosan-coated vesicle containing both α-hederin and hederacoside C, demonstrated notable antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a keratitis model, showing significant lesion reduction, tissue improvement, and decreased bacterial load and inflammatory markers compared to other treatments.

This case report describes subcutaneous emphysema in a patient's forearm as a rare complication of liquid nitrogen spray used on hypertrophic actinic keratosis, resolving spontaneously within a day.

This report describes a new case of syndromic ichthyosis caused by compound heterozygous mutations in AP1B1, detailing the associated clinical features and molecular consequences in the patient.

This review highlights microneedling's promise as an adjuvant therapy for enhanced drug delivery in dermatology, especially for conditions like atrophic scars and pigmentation disorders, though its efficacy for vitiligo is limited.

Topical imiquimod is as effective as 5-fluorouracil for treating actinic keratosis, with about a 5% risk of it turning into squamous cell carcinoma.

This article highlights that nurses may not be sufficiently aware of the potential for various drug groups, beyond cytotoxic drugs, to cause alopecia, and emphasizes the importance of early recognition of this side effect.

This article reviews the design and objectives of the Rotterdam Study, as well as summarizes major findings, without reporting new results.

This study provides evidence-based recommendations for the off-label use of topical vitamin D in treating certain skin conditions, but highlights the need for higher quality studies for further validation.

This study found that hair regrowth in Pomeranians with hair cycle arrest treated with melatonin was not associated with a change in oestrogen receptor-α staining.

This review discusses laser-assisted drug delivery for enhancing topical treatment efficacy in various dermatological and medical applications but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research to optimize its use.

This review summarizes current evidence on how beta-human papillomavirus and Merkel cell polyomavirus may contribute to the development of nonmelanoma and Merkel cell skin carcinomas, respectively, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that the Wnt signaling pathway does not significantly influence human keratoacanthoma development, but the overexpression of Sox9 suggests alternate signaling involvement.

This study reports the case of an elderly patient with a keratosis pilaris-like skin eruption after beginning treatment with imatinib for chronic myeloid leukemia, discussing similar skin reactions to BCR-ABL inhibitors and exploring potential mechanisms behind these adverse cutaneous reactions.

This study found that ERBB2 mutations and amplifications are likely key drivers of extramammary Paget disease, suggesting potential for targeted therapies and cancer immunotherapy due to the moderately high mutational load observed.

Some medications can improve skin conditions, while lifestyle factors like smoking and drinking may worsen them; treatments like monoclonal antibodies and imiquimod cream show promise for certain skin diseases.

This chapter covers various dermatological drugs, cosmetics, and topical agents, focusing on the properties and uses of propolis, but does not present new clinical findings.

This review discusses recent findings on molecular changes in cutaneous adnexal tumours and reports novel markers and pathways involved, highlighting the diverse oncogenic drivers and tumour suppressor alterations.

This study assessed the dermatologic potential of western red cedar, white spruce, birch, balsam poplar, and black spruce used in First Nations medicine, highlighting several active compounds relevant to dermatology, but noted a lack of high-quality evidence in existing research.

This study found significantly higher P-Smad2 levels in both lesional and nonlesional skin of organ transplant recipients, suggesting elevated TGF-β signaling might contribute to their increased cancer susceptibility.

This study found that transcriptome profiling of cashmere goat skin revealed key genes and pathways involved in hair follicle initiation, differentiation, and maturation, which are critical for improving fleece production.

This study suggests that PKCß plays a critical role in modulating the dermal inflammatory microenvironment in response to dietary lipids in mice.

This review elaborates on the skin side effects of chemotherapy and emphasizes identifying and managing both common and life-threatening skin reactions, without presenting new clinical findings.
