This study found that acanthosis nigricans in the knuckles correlates with higher insulin and HOMA-IR values, potentially serving as an early, accessible marker for insulin resistance even without excess weight.

In this report, the potential connection between Merkel cell carcinoma and Curvularia lunata infection in an elderly patient is discussed, highlighting the need for precise diagnostic methods and suggesting that surgery combined with the antifungal voriconazole may be a viable treatment option.

In this report, two cases of melanocytic matricoma, a rare benign hair follicle lesion that mimics melanoma and basal cell carcinoma, were described and successfully treated with complete surgical excision. Histological analysis was crucial for differentiation from similar malignant lesions.

This case report details a 36-year-old man with atypical necrobiosis lipoidica on his face, characterized by annular lesions and prominent giant cells without clear granuloma formation.

This report details two cases of Lichen spinulosus in the submental area, treated effectively and safely with topical tacalcitol cream.

This review outlines the diverse clinical presentations of cutaneous metastases in breast cancer patients and emphasizes the importance of biopsy for accurate diagnosis, but reports no new results.

This study found that human adipose-derived stem cells co-cultured on a collagen sponge scaffold showed increased differentiation into keratinocytes, suggesting potential for improved skin wound healing.

This study found that experimentally induced calcification in rat skin led to rapid and localized mineralization in hair follicles, progressing to more extensive calcification with prior hypercalcemic treatment.

This study describes a distinctive form of ichthyosis characterized by abnormal epidermal differentiation mainly within hair follicles in four patients with congenital follicular hyperkeratosis.

This study suggests that spiny keratoderma may be an ectopic hair formation on palms and soles, based on keratinization patterns observed using antikeratin antibodies and electron microscopy.

This study reported that topical calcipotriol did not reduce hypertrophic scar formation in women post reduction mammoplasty, but found a strong association between activated keratinocytes and scar formation.

This study reported that a new extraction technique using cautery and forceps is a simple, effective treatment and diagnostic procedure for eruptive vellus hair cysts, with no recurrence after 4 months.

In this study, researchers found that mouse digits without nails could not regenerate after amputation, highlighting the necessity of nails for fingertip regeneration and suggesting a potential role for the Lmx1b gene in this process.

This study reports that flaky skin mice exhibit skin and nail features that closely resemble human psoriasis vulgaris, suggesting they may serve as a natural model for this condition.

This study reported that human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived skin organoids, used to model epidermolysis bullosa, have an epidermal-dermal junction largely lacking type VII collagen, which is important for skin structure.

In this study, researchers reported a rare case of nevus comedonicus with hair growth in a 26-year-old male, challenging prior reports that affected lesions typically lack the capability to develop terminal hair.

This letter argues that the lymphangitis reported from using cantharidin on warts is instead a case of aseptic necrosis common to other aggressive wart treatments.

This article reviews various skin changes and conditions during pregnancy, noting that while many are normal, some can become pathologic, but it reports no new research findings.

This case report details a rare large epidermal cyst over the sacrumcoccygeal region in an elderly patient, which was successfully removed surgically.

This case report describes a unique lesion in a 10-month-old girl, characterized by increased eccrine glands and hair follicles, leading to the proposed term "hybrid eccrine gland and hair follicle hamartoma".

This material provides comprehensive information about actinic keratosis, highlighting its potential outcomes, risk factors, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment considerations for medical specialists.

In this report, an 11-year-old girl and her 14-year-old brother developed marking nut dermatitis from an amulet, highlighting the importance of recognizing cultural practices in diagnosing skin conditions.

This study found that scalp basal cell carcinomas do not appear to behave more aggressively than other types, despite suggestions in the literature.

This case study reports the first instance of localized acquired hypertrichosis in a pediatric patient following splint application after forearm surgery, with hair growth returning to normal within eight months.

This study indicated that a novel calcium-phosphate nanoflower coating on titanium surfaces had high surface area, low cytotoxicity, and promising cell affinity, suggesting it could be a potential alternative modification method for titanium implants.

In this case report, a 14-year-old boy was diagnosed with nevus comedonicus, a condition characterized by dilated follicular openings filled with keratin, presenting in a Blaschkoid pattern; treatment with topical tretinoin 0.1% cream was recommended.

This report presents a case of molluscum contagiosum virus infection within an epidermoid cyst in a 13-year-old on long-term steroid treatment, highlighting its rare occurrence and need for histological examination for accurate diagnosis.

This study found that different epidermal stem cell populations contribute to the formation of various skin tumors and new hair follicles following β-catenin activation in the adult epidermis.
