This case report describes a woman with an unusual presentation of tinea capitis, noting diagnostic challenges as initial examinations found no mycelium or spores.

This review examines evidence on the effectiveness of cold caps or scalp cooling systems in reducing chemotherapy-induced hair loss, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlights a rare instance of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage in a patient with catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome, emphasizing the importance of early recognition and multidisciplinary management.

This study identified numerous size polymorphisms in the human ultrahigh sulfur KAP4 genes due to intragenic sequence variations, suggesting these polymorphisms may have arisen through deletions and duplications during evolution.

In this study, researchers identified two new keratin-associated proteins, hKAP1.6 and hKAP1.7, in human hair follicles, contributing to understanding hair fiber differentiation.

This report describes two cases of tinea capitis: one resistant to local iodine treatment after partial improvement, and another cured with the same treatment, in African American and Caucasian children, respectively.

This article discusses tinea capitis, highlighting its causes, symptoms, diagnostic methods, and the importance of selecting treatment based on the causal agent for effective outcomes; it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews tinea capitis as a common infectious scalp condition in children, reporting no new findings.

This study identified the expression sites of five KAP5 genes on human chromosome 11q13.5 in scalp skin sections but did not explore their detailed distribution within hair follicles.

This study reviews the diverse clinical presentations of tinea capitis, such as gray patches, a "black dot" appearance, and kerion, highlighting its complex differential diagnosis with conditions like alopecia areata and psoriasis.

Tinea capitis can be quickly diagnosed and treated using dermoscopy to prevent hair damage.

This review reports that tinea capitis is uncommon in adults, with postmenopausal African American or Black women at higher risk, and emphasizes the importance of prompt antifungal treatment to prevent complications.

This article reviews historical cases and descriptions of perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens, highlighting its characteristics and treatment, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that both scalp cooling systems and chemical cooling caps effectively reduced chemotherapy-induced alopecia in early breast cancer patients, with scalp cooling showing better early efficacy but chemical cooling providing greater psychological and quality of life benefits.

This report describes a case of tinea capitis caused by Epidermophyton floccosum, highlighting its unusual ability to perforate hair and act as an etiological agent for the condition.

This review discusses treatments for tinea capitis, noting that while griseofulvin remains a common choice, shorter treatment options like terbinafine, itraconazole, and fluconazole show promise but require further studies.

This case report documents an 8-year-old with tinea capitis, successfully treated with Terbinafine over 8 weeks, highlighting the importance of accurate diagnosis and timely intervention to prevent complications and recurrence.

This review discusses the historical and current epidemiological trends of tinea capitis in Spain and warns about a potential resurgence due to increased anthropophilic species if not properly managed; it reports no new clinical data.

In this article review, it was reported that systemic oral antifungal treatments are essential for effectively managing tinea capitis, as topical antifungals alone cannot reach the hair follicle roots but may reduce spore transmission when used alongside oral medications.

This chapter reviews scalp and calvarium reconstruction, highlighting regional anatomy, reconstruction techniques, and discusses the current perspectives on hair restoration surgery and allotransplantation, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers observed that IRES/Cap translation initiation increased during caloric stress across cell differentiation states and also unexpectedly rose during normal differentiation processes in mice, with lower IRES/Cap being linked to higher stem cell potential, mediated by PTBP1, a RNA processing protein.

In this case series, five pediatric patients with tinea capitis showed varied clinical presentations, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and prompt systemic antifungal therapy to prevent permanent outcomes such as alopecia and scarring.

This study found that adding procapil to minoxidil was more effective than minoxidil alone in improving hair count, patient satisfaction, and dermatologist assessment scores for treating androgenetic alopecia over 12 months.

This case report discusses the clinical features and management of tinea capitis, highlighting its occurrence in adults and the continued preference for griseofulvin treatment.

This study reviewed medical records of tinea capitis patients at a clinic in Surabaya, finding that the condition predominantly affected young males and was often associated with contact with cats.
