This article discusses the FDA's decision not to approve 5α-reductase inhibitors for prostate cancer prevention, citing an increase in high-grade tumors but no mortality evidence, and reports no new results.

This study found that females exposed to high cumulative doses of cyproterone acetate had a 6–20 fold increased risk of developing meningiomas compared to those on lower doses.

This study found that calprotectin induces complex multi-metal starvation responses in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, affecting its metal homeostasis pathways and resistance to polymyxin B.

People with lichen planopilaris often have seborrheic dermatitis, which can delay the diagnosis of lichen planopilaris.

This letter argues that cicatricial pattern hair loss likely represents end-stage androgenetic alopecia and not a variant of lichen planopilaris, as previously suggested.

This study observed that PCE-DP may improve skin pigmentation by increasing epidermal turnover and inhibiting melanin uptake and inflammation in human epidermal keratinocytes.

PDE inhibitors, especially PDE4 inhibitors like apremilast, are effective for certain inflammatory skin conditions but have side effects and can be costly.

In this study, researchers identified a recurrent MBTPS2 splice-site variant as a mutational hotspot in IFAP syndrome across diverse families, with phenotype severity suggesting the influence of additional modifiers.

This study describes dissecting cellulitis of the scalp (DCS) as a rare and aggressive form of chronic scalp inflammation presenting with pustules and nodules, commonly affecting males and African Americans, and leading to significant quality of life impacts and psychological distress.

This study found that PRP injections may safely improve penile curvature and PDQ scores in men with stable-phase Peyronie's Disease, although the curvature reduction observed was not enough to determine long-term clinical significance.

This study found that diphenylcyclopropenone therapy resulted in over 50% hair regrowth in 71% of alopecia totalis patients, with a significant relapse association with thyroid disease, suggesting treatment could be viable but should continue for at least two years.

Pallister-Killian Syndrome is a complex genetic disorder requiring coordinated care and genetic counseling.

This study evaluates finasteride's safety and efficacy for treating male chronic pelvic pain syndrome, but the abstract does not report any results.

This study found that the observed isotropic ss-ECD spectrum of finasteride is influenced by the anisotropy of locally oriented crystals, offering new possibilities for analyzing solid-state chiral materials.

In this Delphi study, international experts established consensus-based guidelines for diagnosing and managing persistent chemotherapy-induced alopecia (pCIA), recommending prevention through scalp cooling and early use of minoxidil, while advising against bicalutamide and certain finasterides for breast cancer patients due to safety concerns.

This study observed that telogen effluvium is the most frequent and specific dermatological manifestation in patients with long COVID syndrome following severe SARS-CoV2 infection.

In this study, treatment with DPCP alone was more effective for hair regrowth and presented fewer side effects in chronic extensive alopecia areata compared to combination therapy with DPCP and anthralin.

This study found that 9% of tested patients had positive patch test reactions linked to hair care products, with most reactions clinically relevant and commonly involving allergens like p-phenylenediamine.

This study found that Diphenylcyclopropenone (DCP) was effective for treating extensive alopecia areata in Thai patients, although a high relapse rate suggests maintenance therapy might be necessary.

This study found that selective deletion of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes in adult mice leads to atopic dermatitis-like inflammation and suggests Ctip2 plays a crucial role in skin barrier maintenance and inflammatory regulation.

This study found that the 15-PGDH inhibitor DPP improved endothelial function in hair-related cells exposed to DHT by reducing oxidative stress and enhancing angiogenic capacity.

This review discusses the challenges of managing intraoperative floppy iris syndrome during cataract surgery and highlights the importance of preoperative risk assessment and multidisciplinary collaboration, reporting no new clinical results.

This study reports a novel mutation in the TP63 gene associated with T and B cell lymphopenia in an EEC patient, suggesting that EEC diagnosis should include TREC assay and evaluation for immunodeficiency.

This case report highlights lichen planus pigmentosus in a 60-year-old man, which was linked to previously undetected hepatitis C infection and liver cirrhosis, suggesting a need for hepatitis C testing in patients with similar dermatological manifestations.

Two elderly men developed scalp inflammation after using a gel for skin lesions, which healed with treatment except for some permanent hair loss.

This case report suggests that in African-American patients, the histology of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia may resemble lichen planopilaris, indicating a potential diagnostic challenge.

In this report, a unique female presentation of IFAP syndrome is described, featuring musculoskeletal contractures but no photophobia, highlighting the importance of early detection and multidisciplinary care to improve outcomes and prevent disability.

This article reviews IFAP syndrome, an X-linked genetic disorder characterized by ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia, and reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes a 47-year-old woman with dilated cardiomyopathy as the first sign of primary antiphospholipid syndrome, highlighting the need for APS screening in similar patient presentations.

This quiz article provides a series of dermatological diagnosis questions based on a Journal of Investigative Dermatology article and includes explanations but reports no original research findings.
