This study identified a mutation hotspot in the caracul (Ca) locus of mice, implicating the mK6irs1/Krt2-6g gene in hair formation and potentially human hair and skin diseases.

This study found that dermatoscopy can quickly and non-invasively detect facial vellus hair involvement in patients with alopecia frontal fibrosante, occurring frequently and associated with specific facial lesions.

This study observed that human dental pulp stem cells can differentiate into adipocytes and osteocytes, but their potential for neural differentiation remains uncertain due to similar responses seen in undifferentiated cells.

This article reviews clinical signs and treatment options for hyperandrogenism in women, emphasizing cyproterone acetate as the most effective antiandrogen for severe hirsutism, but reports no new clinical results.

This research observed that, in domestic cats like Maine Coon and Rex breeds, a "piebald" coat color pattern is likely influenced by the Silver locus, although the specific mutations involved are yet to be published.

This study, involving a retrospective analysis of 24 patients in France, found that paradoxical psoriasiform alopecic reactions on the scalp associated with TNFα-targeted therapies for inflammatory bowel disease are rare yet non-scarring, with all patients achieving complete hair regrowth within two months after treatment adjustments.

In this study, researchers at the Hospital Militar Universitario “Dr. Carlos Arvelo” found that among children under five with severe malnutrition, skin pigmentation changes and extreme thinness were the most common signs.

This study reported that most androgenetic alopecia patients in Trujillo were male, aged 31–39, with a family history of the condition, showing specific hair loss patterns and a disease duration of 1–5 years.

In this study, 41% of participants reported experiencing alopecia post-COVID-19, with notable associations found between the condition and female sex, azithromycin use, and symptoms like fatigue and post-infection skin irritation.

This study reviewed clinical literature on telogen effluvium caused by COVID-19 and found that intense hair shedding predominantly affected women, typically developing two months post-infection and resolving within one to four months.

This study found that most women who recovered from COVID-19 in one Brazilian neighborhood experienced lingering symptoms like fatigue and headache, with few undergoing rehabilitation.

In this study, the stability properties of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) were characterized, revealing how factors like pressure and water sensitivity influence their intrinsic stability and potential degradation.

In this retrospective study from five Colombian cities, researchers detailed the clinical characteristics of 562 alopecia areata patients, noting that multiple plaques and the patchy subtype were common, with steroid injections frequently used as treatment.

This study reported that among individuals with long COVID, hematologic disturbances such as inflammation-related anemia, characterized by high hepcidin levels and restricted iron use, were prevalent, contributing to reduced capacity, fatigue, and slow recovery, especially in men and those with severe acute COVID-19.

This study investigated the effects of ultrasound-assisted extraction on sunflower seed oil mixed with defective green coffee grains, finding that higher coffee grain ratios decreased oil yield but increased phenolic content and antioxidant activity, with potential applications for wound treatment.

This study developed two types of polymeric nanoparticles containing clindamycin phosphate for potential topical acne treatment and found that the NP-AH-CDM-4 formulation preferentially penetrated hair follicles even with sebaceous obstruction, suggesting its promise for more effective acne therapy without causing skin irritation.

Lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia are likely the same disease with different clinical appearances.

This study found that fetal canine hair follicle-derived stem cells exhibited pluripotency markers, suggesting potential for therapeutic applications in hair and skin repair.

This study found that early clinical markers of androgenic alopecia, such as peripilar signs and hair diameter diversity, are linked to inflammatory infiltrates and hair follicle miniaturization, while iron status is linked to hair loss in pre-menopausal women.

This study found that severe obesity is positively associated with more severe lower urinary tract symptoms compared to moderate obesity in patients with prostatic enlargement.

This study found that Sida cordifolia collected in Colombia is a good source of steroidal saponins, which may contribute to its antioxidant and antifungal properties.

This integrative review reports that postpartum telogen effluvium is linked to hormonal changes, stress, and nutritional deficiencies, with management typically involving nutritional support, topical treatments, and psychological support.

This study found that a combination of photoprotector and nighttime formulations with essential oils improved skin barrier function and structural characteristics in young men's oily, acne-prone, and photoaged skin.

This review discusses the characteristics and treatment recommendations for skin-related adverse effects from immune checkpoint inhibitors in cancer treatment, and notes an observed association with favorable oncology outcomes that requires careful interpretation.

This study found that hair cortisol concentration is consistently associated with salivary cortisol output throughout the day, making it a potential reliable biomarker of long-term cortisol secretion.

This narrative review explores current understanding and management of female pattern hair loss, highlighting the role of genetic and environmental factors, and discussing diagnostic approaches like trichoscopy alongside emerging therapeutic strategies.

In this report, a newborn female with bilateral symmetrical alopecia lesions was diagnosed with congenital triangular alopecia, an unusual presentation, highlighting the disorder's benign nature and the importance of early recognition and conservative management.

This study reports that Female Pattern Hair Loss is prevalent among women attending a dermatology clinic in Colombia, with an estimated prevalence of 20.84% and associations with medical history and mood alterations.

This review explored the relationship between autoimmune thyroiditis and various autoimmune skin conditions, highlighting shared genetic markers and immunological mechanisms, such as disrupted immune tolerance and oxidative stress, which may contribute to the development of these disorders.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with Parry–Romberg syndrome displayed left-sided facial atrophy and subclinical central nervous system involvement detectable by neuroimaging, suggesting that even symptom-free cases may benefit from systematic brain evaluations.
