This report describes a patient with biotinidase deficiency presenting bilateral optic atrophy, and confirms autosomal recessive inheritance through enzyme dosage analysis in the patient and family members.

This study found that endogenous EGF may play a role in epidermal development and wound healing, while the absence of bFGF in embryonic rats' skin could contribute to non-scar healing.

This case report diagnosed variegate porphyria in a 33-year-old woman based on significant laboratory abnormalities, but with clinical features resembling porphyria cutanea tarda.

The authors concluded that VSCAPSI, a videodermoscopy-based assessment tool, provides evidence for early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, follow-up, and screening of scalp psoriasis.

This study used a novel fluorescent tagging method in mice to observe collagen IV dynamics during hair follicle development, revealing that alterations in basement membrane turnover can influence epithelial progenitor cell behavior and organ morphology by affecting cell proliferation and movement.

This study suggests that the presence of more than six vellus hairs in the frontal scalp at 20-fold magnification can be an additional criterion for diagnosing early female pattern hair loss.

This study found that BCG injection in COVID-19 convalescent adults reduced long COVID symptoms like hearing and cognitive issues but also led to increased hair loss in women at six months.

This study found that the novel VG111 formulation alone healed canine wounds nearly twice as fast as the standard povidone–iodine treatment, achieving complete healing in 25 days compared to up to 50 days.

Bullous pemphigoid can look like erythema multiforme, so awareness is needed for proper treatment.

This review discusses the applications and potential of Bioengineered Artificial Skin Substitutes in cosmetics and pharmacology research, with no new clinical findings reported.

This review discusses biotinidase deficiency, noting that biotin treatment from birth can prevent symptoms, but acknowledges the complexity and need for further understanding due to late-onset cases with varied clinical findings.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia can affect men's beards and leads to permanent hair loss.

This study generated a gene-edited cashmere goat with improved cashmere yield and fiber length by integrating VEGF at the FGF5 site, offering insights into hair growth mechanisms.

A three-year-old girl survived a rare serious infection caused by BCG vaccination, which improved after treatment with a leprosy drug.

EBF1 controls hair type and length.

This article reviews the role of factor Xa inhibitors like Rivaroxaban and suggests they may eventually replace vitamin K antagonists, but their side effects require further clarification.

This study discusses the role of CD8+ T-cell and interferon γ signaling in vitiligo's pathogenesis and notes that JAK inhibitors, which are FDA-approved for other autoimmune diseases, may offer a potential treatment path by blocking this pathway.

This article discusses the author's experiences and perspectives on the board certification process for hair restoration surgery and reports no new clinical findings.

Laser treatment for skin conditions VEN and ILVEN is effective and liked by patients.

This research identified a genetic mutation in Brachypodium distachyon that initially allows root hair initiation but fails to elongate them, while also affecting root growth and nitrate sensitivity; the mutation is linked to a previously uncharacterized cyclin-dependent kinase-like gene.

This case report is the first in Brazilian literature to document Becker nevus syndrome, featuring Becker's nevus, ipsilateral breast hypoplasia, and scoliosis in a 14-year-old girl.

This study identified key proteins, FKBP10 and FBN2, that promote the growth cycle of secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats, with higher expression in the anagen phase, offering insights into mechanisms potentially enhancing cashmere yield and quality.

This study found that in AGA, the risk allele at locus 2q35 alters WNT10A expression through EBF1, suggesting a potential androgen-dependent regulatory mechanism.

In this case study, a rare scalp arteriovenous fistula developed after hair transplantation in a 29-year-old male was successfully treated using endovascular embolization with platinum coils, resulting in symptom resolution and complete fistula disappearance without complications.

This study found that serum VEGF levels were lower in women with telogen effluvium compared to healthy controls, indicating a possible role of VEGF in the condition's pathogenesis.

This piece marks the tenth anniversary of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery and highlights the addition of 14 new diplomates from diverse countries, while reporting no new clinical findings.

This case report illustrates the diagnostic challenges and importance of early detection in primary vitreoretinal lymphoma, highlighting a successful treatment outcome with systemic chemotherapy in preventing CNS progression.

The researchers reported that BCE-like changes overlying dermatofibroma show a differentiation pattern most similar to normal basal cells based on specific keratin markers.

This study found that older men with vertex balding have lower circulating levels of the protein IGFBP-3 and higher levels of IGF-1.
