In their commentary, the authors introduce additional cosmetic procedures—thread lifts, temporal lifting with dermal fillers, and facelifts—that may lead to type 2 pressure alopecia, expanding the understanding of this condition's potential causes beyond the original classification tied to cosmetic injections and sustained external pressure.

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 study concluded that anabolic-androgenic steroids negatively impact male reproductive health, including reduced testosterone production, impaired sperm production, and increased risk of sexual dysfunction and metabolic issues.

This article describes two cases of plica neuropathica, a rare hair condition involving severe matting, and discusses possible contributing factors and diagnosis methods while reporting no new scientific results.

This study suggests that stimulating olfactory receptors in human hair follicles with Sandalore® increases antimicrobial activity by upregulating dermcidin production, potentially offering a novel approach for treating hair follicle diseases with bacterial issues.

This study found that latanoprost may be effective for treating eyelash alopecia areata, achieving cosmetically acceptable regrowth in 45% of patients.

In a comparative genomic study, researchers observed significant genetic differences among the three chemical races of the alga Botryococcus braunii, leading them to propose reclassifying these races as distinct species based on their unique genomic characteristics.

Giving melatonin to sheep before the non-breeding season can improve their chances of reproducing in northwest Mexico.

Melatonin improved sheep reproduction, being more beneficial and cost-effective in males.

This study found that endoscopy-assisted craniectomies with postoperative molding helmets led to excellent outcomes in infants with sagittal synostosis, with low morbidity and minimal complications.

In this case report, a 16-year-old Asian girl with deep vein thrombosis and autoimmune hemolytic anemia was suspected of having systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the importance of early recognition of unusual SLE manifestations.

This review highlights the ongoing need for novel treatments for autosomal recessive congenital ichthyoses, suggesting that drug repositioning, utilizing existing medications or biologics, could provide more affordable and effective options for managing this lifelong skin condition.

This article reviews the complex challenges of managing scalp and cranial deformities post-trauma or surgery, advocating for better multidisciplinary approaches to enhance outcomes, but reports no new results.

This study found that combining a large posterior Z-plasty with staged modified paramedian scalp reductions significantly minimized the "slot" defect scar following scalp reduction surgeries.

In this study conducted at a Russian military hospital, the researchers found that using a (bi)eyebrow surgical approach with endonasal video navigation significantly reduced postoperative complications, such as skin sensitivity impairment and visible scarring, compared to the open bicoronal approach for treating frontal sinus injuries.

This study reports that the composite galeal frontalis pericranial flap can be successfully used for reconstruction in anterior cranial base surgery, effectively sealing cerebrospinal fluid leaks, while minimizing complications like numbness and skin necrosis.

This study found that off-pump coronary surgery significantly reduces in-hospital morbidity compared to on-pump surgery without affecting midterm outcomes in the first 1-3 years after the procedure.

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.

Oxygen levels can drop during liver transplant if bypass pressures are too high, but other reasons should be checked first.

This study found that using deep plane fixation during scalp surgeries significantly reduced closure tension and allowed for increased tissue excision compared to standard techniques without fixation.

The rib-sparing technique in breast reconstruction may lead to more complications without reducing the need for further surgery.

This study found that an alternating inflatable head pad significantly reduced the incidence and severity of occipital pressure ulcers and alopecia in patients undergoing open heart surgery, suggesting improved postoperative nursing and patient quality of life.

This study found that deep plane fixation in scalp surgeries allowed for tension-reduced wound closures and increased tissue excision compared to techniques without deep plane fixation.

This research suggests that intraoperative unilateral occipital artery ligation can reduce the risk of complications like scalp necrosis, offering advantages such as improved visualization and reduced asymmetry during extensive scalp lift surgeries.

This study compared open and closed surgical techniques for severe congenital ptosis using Gore-Tex slings and found that the closed approach offered better functional outcomes, while the open method provided superior cosmetic results.

This study suggests that leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin membranes may aid postoperative healing in endoscopic skull base surgery, with some patients showing reduced crusting and low rates of cerebrospinal fluid leaks.

This case report describes a dual transposition flap technique for closing large scalp defects post-Mohs surgery, achieving minimal alopecia and scar visibility, though it is based on a single patient.

This article discusses surgical innovations in scalp reduction to improve cosmetic outcomes but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the benefits of anchor techniques for minimizing scars and stretch-back.
