This report describes a boy with ectodermal dysplasias who was genetically diagnosed due to newly discovered TSPEAR gene variants, which have now been associated with this condition.

This report discusses a case of a rare congenital neck mass called a "wattle" or congenital cervical tragus, emphasizing its histological features and its association with other branchial arch anomalies.

This article discusses the diagnostic challenges between certain neonatal scalp conditions and highlights the potential of line-field confocal optical coherence tomography to provide detailed, non-invasive skin examination, without presenting new clinical findings.

The authors present a case of punctate follicular porokeratosis, suggesting it as a distinct clinical entity distinguished by keratotic lesions originating specifically from hair follicles.

This archive describes the Bioline International platform, which hosted open access journals from developing countries but reports no new research findings.

This review outlines evidence-based strategies for diagnosing pediatric hypopigmented disorders and emphasizes distinguishing vitiligo from self-limiting conditions through a systematic clinical approach; no new results are reported.

The researchers in this study described the use of trichoscopy to assist in diagnosing aplasia cutis congenita of the scalp in a dark-skinned newborn, noting that trichoscopic findings can differ from those seen in light-skinned patients, yet remain a valuable diagnostic tool.

This article reviews the distinctive features of cutaneous lymphadenoma, a variant of trichoblastoma, and its differential diagnosis, but it presents no new empirical results.

In this study, researchers examined the skin of neonatal rabbits and found that most hair follicles were in the terminal stage, with hair shafts protruding through the epidermis, but noted the absence of sweat glands.

This study reports that 91.4% of pregnant women in south India experienced pigmentary alterations, highlighting various skin changes occurring during pregnancy.

This case study reports a 20-year-old male with lifelong hair loss and unresponsive skin-colored papules, without other systemic abnormalities or similar family medical history.

This study reported a rare case of pityriasis rubra pilaris-like skin reaction in an 18-year-old woman after starting ponatinib treatment for relapsed Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, which resolved after treatment adjustment and did not recur over 15 months.

Reflectance confocal microscopy can tell apart white dots on the scalp as either sweat gland ducts or hair follicle openings.

Tiger tail banding and hair abnormalities are reliable indicators for diagnosing trichothiodystrophy.

This case report describes a 24-year-old woman with a rare giant cerebriform pigmented nevus on the scalp, which was identified as a giant congenital intradermal nevus based on clinical and pathological findings.

This study found that cellular retinoic acid-binding proteins and fatty acid-binding proteins are dynamically expressed in skin development and respond differently to retinoic acid, β-catenin, and Notch signaling.

This review discusses skin signs that can indicate systemic diseases and provides no new clinical results; it aims to aid physicians in diagnosing these conditions.

This study found that enlarged facial pores in women show distinct microstructural alterations, including regular keratinocyte arrangement and irregular dermo-epidermal junctions, highlighting changes in skin tension linked to pore enlargement.

This study found that tight junctions extend to the most superficial layer of the stratum granulosum in human skin, challenging previous claims of their limited presence in the epidermis.

Dermatoscopy helps track scar changes and guide treatment.

This case report describes a five-year-old boy diagnosed with nevus comedonicus syndrome, a rare skin condition, characterized by asymptomatic skin lesions and a congenital cataract of the right eye, without inflammation or typical signs of related conditions.

This case study highlights that RDEB-mitis can be misdiagnosed in older adults, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis as it does not require immunosuppressive treatment.

The author believes that giving medical conditions official names can sometimes overwhelm or scare patients.

RET mutation is important in familial medullary thyroid carcinoma, and BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid carcinoma is linked to more aggressive cancer and higher death rates.

This study observed that dermoscopy is a useful technique for distinguishing between infundibular keratinising acanthoma and follicular cysts in dogs, with specific dermoscopic features noted for each.

This study suggests that pili annulati is likely more common than traditionally thought, highlighting the importance of recognizing its characteristic clinical and trichoscopic features for accurate diagnosis.
