This study reported significantly lower levels of serum iron, ferritin, and calcium in young patients with premature gray hair compared to controls, implying that supplementation might prevent further graying.

This case report highlights an atypical presentation of vitamin B12 deficiency in a 28-year-old man with reversible symptoms including localized hand hyperpigmentation and megaloblastic anemia, resolved after B12 supplementation.

This study found that treating children with hair defluvium using vitamin-D and calcium significantly improved symptoms, with a total effective rate of 93.3%.

Calcipotriol may effectively treat hair loss in alopecia areata, working better in children than adults.

This article reviews inherited mineral and trace element disturbances and reports no clinical results; it highlights conditions like hypomagnesaemia and acrodermatitis enteropathica linked to impaired nutrient absorption.

This study found no protective effect of topical calcipotriol on hair loss in chemotherapy patients, and the authors propose the term "atrophic telogen effluvium" for this type of hair loss.

In this case study, a 69-year-old woman with severe hypercortisolism developed acute adrenal insufficiency after starting ketoconazole treatment, highlighting the need for cautious dosing and close monitoring of adrenal function, particularly in patients with prior glucocorticoid exposure.

This study found that while iron supplements are generally well tolerated by patients with anemia, their clinical benefit in those without iron deficiency is modest.

In this article, the authors reported that calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate aerosol foam significantly improved scalp psoriasis symptoms in three patients by reducing itching and improving flaky patches within a four-week treatment period, confirming its efficacy and enhanced skin penetration compared to older formulations.

This study found that the diphosphonate ethan-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonat was the most effective compound in preventing calcifications in rats induced by DHT, compared to other phosphatase inhibitors and polyphosphates tested.

This article reviews the essential role of vitamin D in bone health and its various clinical applications but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, the authors reported that in rat skin affected by localized calciphylaxis, although regeneration occurs and some connective tissue remains, the regenerate resembles scar tissue with reduced hair presence and lacks restored elastic fibers.

This study found variation in erythema induction across skin types, suggesting different SSR dose responses and highlighting a potential model for tailoring anti-inflammatory treatments.

Hair follicles in injured skin can quickly accumulate minerals, especially calcium and phosphorus.

This article reviews the role and clinical applications of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and parathyroid hormone-related peptide in dermatology, with a focus on psoriasis treatment, and reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, homeopathic Radium bromatum showed potential anti-cancer effects against human lung and liver cancer cells in vitro while exhibiting low cytotoxicity towards non-cancerous kidney cells.

In this study, researchers isolated new compounds from the plant *Calanthe cardioglossa* and found that five of these compounds, particularly calancardin B, significantly reduced TNF-α levels in immune cells relevant to multiple sclerosis, suggesting potential for immunomodulatory effects.

This study notes the ongoing challenge in developing new drugs for androgenetic alopecia, mentioning that both minoxidil and finasteride were originally intended for treating hypertension. Results are not reported.

In this study, histologic analysis of rat skin with localized calciphylaxis indicated that although the skin showed potential for regeneration, the result was incomplete and resembled scar tissue with diminished hair presence.

This study found that using calcipotriene and betamethasone dipropionate cream in a real-world setting significantly improved clinical outcomes and patient quality of life for adults with mild-to-moderate scalp psoriasis, especially among those with higher adherence, demonstrating high treatment satisfaction.

This study found that mild skin injuries in rats, especially those dosed with dihydrotachysterol, lead to mineral deposits in hair follicle tissue within 6-12 hours, as confirmed by chemical and X-ray diffraction analyses.

Some medications caused temporary health issues that improved after stopping the drugs, but two patients died from liver problems linked to carbamazepine.

In this study, topical calcipotriol was found to be more effective than oral vitamin D for improving mild to moderate alopecia areata, with a 68% improvement rate and no correlation between serum vitamin D levels and treatment efficacy.

A test for nail fungus was most accurate with PAS stain, low-dose spironolactone helped two-thirds of acne patients, metformin reduced symptoms of HIV-related fat distribution changes with some side effects, and skin examination with dermoscopy was better at detecting abnormal moles, while temporary tattoos can cause skin reactions.

This case report describes a patient with skin and nail hyperpigmentation and premature gray hair due to vitamin B12 deficiency, which were reversed after treatment with cyanocobalamin.

This study found that exposing dermal papilla cells to sub-lethal doses of colchicine releases histone H4, which inhibits cell growth and decreases alkaline phosphatase activity, potentially explaining colchicine-induced hair loss.

This study observed that while dexamethasone-cyclophosphamide pulse therapy is relatively free from hypertension and diabetes compared to conventional steroids in pemphigus patients, it frequently causes generalized weakness and flushing.

This study observed that the intestinal absorption of selenium varies depending on its chemical form, with selenomethionine being absorbed efficiently and selenium as selenodiglutathione or selenodicysteine being absorbed faster than selenite.

In this research, animal tests confirmed that chromium supplementation effectively maintains glycaemic and insulinaemic balance and affects certain hormone levels, but the authors note that clinical evidence for chromium's benefits in PCOS treatment remains sparse and inconsistent, warranting further exploration.
