This case report describes a 36-year-old Senegalese man with tinea capitis caused by Trichophyton soudanense, a dermatophyte more frequently encountered in Europe due to immigration.

This study developed a partially automated protocol utilizing hair follicles for DNA extraction in marmosets, achieving reliable whole genome sequencing with low chimerism, offering an efficient alternative to blood for genetic studies in non-human primates.

In this case report, treatment involving anthelmintic pyrantel pamoate and antiparasitic sarolaner effectively reduced pruritus and physical symptoms of scabiosis and ancylostomyosis in a puppy, with notable improvements observed by day 14.

Abrus precatorius has medicinal benefits but can be toxic.

This study investigated the integration of crystal engineering and microneedle technology for androgenetic alopecia treatment, finding that microneedles loaded with newly developed Kopexil multicomponent crystals reduced drug diffusion rates in vitro compared to standard formulations.

This report documents the first outbreak of a mixed infection of camelpox and dermatophilosis in camels in Iraq, highlighting the need for further study due to the novelty of dermatophilosis in the region.

Among in vitro and in vivo models, this study found that Miscanthus sinensis var. purpurascens flower extract may promote hair growth, potentially by modulating growth factor expressions and facilitating earlier hair follicle transitions in treated mice.

This study found that social hair plucking in captive rhesus macaques was associated with alopecia and exhibited patterns similar to both prosocial and aggressive behaviors.

This study found that Hoxc13 mutations in mice cause defects in hair, nail, and tongue structures, with the most noticeable issue being brittle hair leading to alopecia.

This review examines factors influencing dermatophyte infection in companion animals, focusing on prevalence, clinical signs, pathogenesis, immune response, and the impact of cortisol and cytokines, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that reptilian claws grow differently from mammalian claws, with continuous epidermal growth rather than a proximal matrix zone for cell proliferation.

This study discovered that androgenetic alopecia disrupts the scalp microbiome balance across the whole scalp, not just areas with hair loss, and introduced a microbial index for early detection and severity prediction.

In this study, dogs with localized demodicosis showed notable improvement in dermatological lesions when treated with Dipterocarpus alatus oil combined with Rhinacanthus nasutus leaf extract, particularly by day 28 of post-treatment, with no observed allergic reactions or clinical signs.

This study reviewed the literature on cryptorchidism in dogs and found it may be associated with dermatological issues like alopecia, with surgical intervention and cyclosporine offering partial benefit.

In this case report, a 28-year-old woman's tinea capitis, diagnosed using a Wood's lamp, was successfully treated with oral itraconazole and ketoconazole shampoo over eight weeks.

This case study presents an asthma patient with H1N1 pneumonia who developed invasive Aspergillosis despite avoiding steroids, suggesting that factors other than steroid use can contribute to IA in such patients.

This study reported that captive muskoxen in Fairbanks, Alaska have significantly faster and variable guard hair growth rates compared to free-ranging Greenland muskoxen, indicating that a universal hair growth rate cannot be applied across different muskox populations or time periods.

This case study reports that a 4-month-old local male dog with scabiosis due to Sarcoptes scabiei infection improved after receiving a combination of ivermectin, antihistamines, supportive therapies, and sulfur shampoo for 28 days, with new hair growth observed by the 40th day.

This case report describes an adult Italian woman with endothrix tinea capitis, highlighting the unusual finding of telogen-sparing arthroconidia involvement during the infection.

This study investigates calcium and phosphorus accumulations in the hair of mummies from the Taklamakan desert and debates their exogenous or endogenous origin.

This study observed that the hair loss in homozygous rhino mice is associated with widening of the hair canal due to hyperkeratosis, leading to insufficient support for hair anchoring.

This study concludes that rhesus macaques are a suitable model for testing the pharmacological properties of finasteride and other 5aR inhibitors, due to their biochemical similarity to humans.

This study aimed to identify trichoscopic features that help differentiate between tinea capitis and alopecia areata in children, enhancing diagnosis and treatment decisions visually and non-invasively.

This study reports a case of generalized dermatitis in a mixed-breed German Spitz due to Sarcoptes scabiei and Malassezia sp. infection, treated with ivermectin and fluconazole, plus supportive therapies, resulting in marked lesion reduction though not full recovery.

This review discusses the diverse bioactivities and potential applications of Halocnemum strobilaceum but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that in captive mouflon rams, reproductive and physical maturation, marked by changes in hormone levels and physical attributes, progresses gradually across their life span, with sexual maturity tied closely to physical maturity.

This study demonstrated that a flow injection method using potassium permanganate for detecting minoxidil provided accurate recoveries and agreed closely with HPLC results, showing potential for effective analysis of commercial samples.

This case report describes how real-time PCR rapidly identified Trichophyton mentagrophytes in a dog's dermatophytosis when traditional mycological methods were slower.

This review elaborates on the concept of cutaneous mosaicism and its link to acneiform conditions, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article details the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment options for an Aboriginal Canadian male with perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens, without reporting new study results.
