This study suggests that NBCCS and BFHS may be the same genetic condition, which could help improve identification and management of misdiagnosed cases with specific surveillance strategies.

This meta-analysis suggests a significant association between the use of facial sunscreen and moisturizer and frontal fibrosing alopecia, while finding no significant relationship with hair products or treatments.

In this split-scalp study, researchers observed that combining fractional CO2 laser and PRP treatment was significantly more effective in improving hair parameters in women with female pattern hair loss than using each intervention alone or placebo.

This study found a significant association between pseudofolliculitis barbae and mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, but not with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

This study investigated a novel extract from pomegranate byproducts, finding it effective in reducing blood pressure and inflammation in hypertensive rats, comparable to Captopril, while also highlighting the extract's potential to enhance the pomegranate supply chain and environmental benefits.

This study found that Pseudomonas DL7 completely degraded 600 mg/L of Sunset Yellow FCF in 48 hours at pH 9, indicating potential for biomineralization of this dye.

Finasteride may cause pseudoporphyria, a blistering skin condition.

This review highlights pigment epithelium-derived factor's roles in ageing and development, focusing on its antioxidant functions and support of stem cell survival, but reports no new experimental results.

This study demonstrated that PGF 2α significantly stimulates hair growth in human hair follicles via a receptor-driven mechanism, with a notably stronger response in intermediate follicles than in terminal ones, suggesting potential clinical significance for conditions like alopecia.

PCFCL may have unrecognized subtypes and needs more research.

This study aimed to identify characteristics of patients who fail to void during pressure-flow studies, which limits the determination of the cause behind their lower urinary tract symptoms.

In this study, the use of rb‐bFGF in hair transplantation significantly increased follicle survival, reduced hair loss, improved patient satisfaction, and decreased complications compared to controls, in patients with androgenetic alopecia over a 12-month period.

This article reports on a typical case of lichen planopilaris with foreign-body granulomas around hair shaft material, suggesting these may be an additional criterion for diagnosing late-stage LPP/FFA.

This review article examines the current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting its prevalence in different demographics and the roles of genetic and environmental factors in its pathogenesis, while highlighting that treatment approaches remain varied and lack standardization.

This report describes a 60-year-old female with pretibial pruritic papular dermatitis who showed significant improvement of skin lesions after one month of treatment with oral pentoxifylline. The authors highlight the unique clinical and histological features of PPPD and propose pentoxifylline as a potential therapy.

In this study, supplementing adult Bichon Frises with 600 mg/kg Omega-3 PUFAs significantly improved their skin health, hair quality, feeding behavior, and metabolic health, compared to a control diet, over six weeks.

In this placebo-controlled study, finasteride significantly improved symptoms, reduced prostate size, and increased urine flow rate in patients with moderately symptomatic BPH over two years.

This study identified 15 Iranian patients with PLEC variants linked to various plectinopathies and highlighted a novel association between a homozygous nonsense variant in PLEC and a rare combination of disorders including EB pruriginosa, muscular dystrophy, and congenital myasthenic syndrome.

This case report presents three sisters with familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, making it the 25th documented familial case, with treatment results observed in one sister.

This study suggests that finasteride may inhibit the enzyme phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase, which could contribute to its sexual and psychological side effects.

In this review, cosmetic practices such as non-ablative lasers, autologous fat injections, and oral isotretinoin may help alleviate certain symptoms of frontal fibrosing alopecia, while treatments like deep chemical peels and ablative laser therapies are contraindicated due to potential scarring risks.

This study found that papillary dermal fibroblast progenitors in newborn mouse skin can be isolated and cultured to generate male germline cell precursors, demonstrating their potential through differentiation into cells with meiotic capability.

In this clinical trial, the topical agent AP-FHG0604T significantly increased hair counts and growth rates in women with female pattern hair loss compared to a placebo, though some reported mild local irritation.

This case study reports that a 26-year-old woman with epidermolysis bullosa prurogompsa also presented with unique findings of co-existing muscular dystrophy and immune-based myasthenia gravis, with significant improvement following steroid treatment.

This article discusses the pulmonary manifestations of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome, noting diagnostic challenges in differentiating it from other lung conditions, and underlines the need for further research on folliculin's role in cyst formation.

In this case report, a 15-year-old golden retriever with calcinosis cutis showed accelerated improvement in FLE-treated skin infections compared to untreated areas, highlighting FLE's potential as a treatment adjunct.

This review discusses the evolution and potential of photobiomodulation therapy, highlighting its transition from skepticism to recognition in medical research; it reports no new experimental findings.

This article reviews the pharmacology of bimatoprost and prostamide F2α, highlighting bimatoprost's therapeutic applications in glaucoma, hair growth, and potential fat reduction, without reporting new experimental results.

In this case report, a 75-year-old man with benign essential blepharospasm and Parkinson disease experienced significant symptom relief from dystonia after starting finasteride, suggesting it may be a potential therapeutic option.
