This study found that the corneal epithelium differentiation program can proceed independently of lens formation, suggesting the corneal program is the default in eye development.

This study found that custom alloplastic implants achieved a 95% success rate in reconstructing large cranial defects from warfare-related injuries, but frontal defects near airways and orbits showed higher infection and implant removal rates.

This article describes pilar cysts, common dermal cysts often seen in young women, which typically require surgical removal.

This study found that human placenta extract may be a promising pulp-capping material, causing less intense chronic inflammation and thicker dentine bridge formation compared to mineral trioxide aggregate in dogs' teeth.

This report presents four new cases of follicular porokeratosis, which exhibit distinct histological features where the cornoid lamella are confined to the follicular ostia.

This research suggests that hair keratins evolved from claw keratins in a hairless ancestor, with Hoxc13 controlling their expression in tetrapods, evidenced by the knockout of Hoxc13 hindering claw formation in Xenopus tropicalis frogs.

Dr. Vogel improved hair restoration by reducing and recycling hair plugs, achieving a more natural look and a 50-80% survival rate for replanted follicles. He emphasized understanding natural hair loss patterns, educating patients about alopecia, and refusing to operate on those who don't understand these aesthetics.

This report describes a case of trichostasis spinulosa, a condition with pruritic, black papules on the face caused by keratotic plugs with embedded vellus hairs.

This study found that a hydrogel made from human placenta-derived ECM, copper, and endothelial progenitor cells significantly enhanced pressure ulcer healing in a mouse model by improving wound closure and tissue regeneration.

This study reported the case of a 30-year-old man with a bluish-grey scalp nodule that developed over a previously stable hairless plaque, revealing histopathological features consistent with epithelioid cell nests and spindle-shaped dermal melanocytes embedded in collagen.

This review examines the process of cornification as a mode of programmed cell death and outlines how keratinocytes activate anti-cell death mechanisms to maintain epidermal homeostasis, but reports no new results.

This report introduces a new potential sign, paired ear creases of the helix, which may have relevance to cardiovascular disease similar to diagonal ear lobe creases, in a case of coronary artery disease.

In this review, researchers examined the molecular diversity and expression patterns of major skin appendage proteins, like keratins and EDC proteins, in tetrapods, highlighting recent findings in reptiles and birds and identifying knowledge gaps for future research.

This review discusses the structure and assembly of the cornified cell envelope in stratified squamous epithelial cells and various disorders leading to barrier defects, but reports no new findings.

This case report presents a rare instance of Winer's dilated pore in a 51-year-old female, emphasizing its pathological features and the need for accurate differential diagnosis to avoid misinterpreting it for more serious conditions.

This letter to the editor raises concerns about the possibility of cornrowing leading to dermatologic problems such as traction alopecia, paralleling issues seen with other cosmetic fads.

The authors suggest that tooth, dermal scale, epidermal scale, feather, and hair evolved in parallel from a shared placode/dermal cell unit in an early vertebrate gnathostome with odontodes, around 420 million years ago.

This study found that a skin-like structure can be generated in vitro by implanting early passage hair follicle bulb cells into collagen/chitosan porous scaffolds.

This study observed that the keratinization pattern of trichilemmal cysts in two Japanese women may originate from the proliferation of the outer root sheath in the follicular isthmus of anagen hairs.

This study found that ossification in trichilemmal cysts may be more common than previously thought, often associated with cyst wall rupture, and reports a novel case of ossifying TC with extramedullary hematopoiesis.

This study analyzed the cornified envelope of epidermal proteins, finding keratins dominate, which may help explain the minimal impact of deleting genes for single envelope components in congenital ichthyosis.

A single medium, PRIME AIRLIFT, supports better human hair follicle formation in grafts.

This case report describes an unusual nail tumor termed "onycholemmal horn" in a 77-year-old woman, highlighting its distinct histopathological features and the importance of excisional biopsy for accurate diagnosis.

This article describes a technique for improving the aesthetic results of surgical hair restoration by recycling plug grafts into smaller grafts, which can be combined with other procedures like scalp lifting and reductions.

This report presents the first known case of a proliferating hybrid cyst containing both epidermoid and trichilemmal components on the scrotum of a 44-year-old man.

This article reviews various aspects of dental socket healing after tooth extraction, including grafting techniques and their role in dental implant placement, and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses methods to measure comedogenesis in acne through the presence of microcomedones and reports no new clinical results; the authors outline a skin surface biopsy technique using cyanoacrylate gel.

This article outlines the clinical and histological features of milia grouped in plaques on a 59-year-old woman's face but reports no new research findings.

This report details a rare case of late-onset, bilateral nevus comedonicus on the eyelids in a 79-year-old man, discussing its clinical presentation and histopathologic features without presenting new research findings.

This study found that using conchal cartilage grafts to reinforce split earlobe repairs provided satisfactory aesthetic and functional outcomes, with no recurrence of tears over a 4-year follow-up.
