This case study reports a prolonged incubation period of over 8 years for a C. gattii infection in a cat that likely originated from exposure in California, suggesting the fungus may remain dormant longer than previously thought.

This case study reports a new variant of chronic dermatophytosis with giant cutaneous horns, suggesting a possible genetic link and highlighting successful treatment with antifungal medications.

In this study, a 7-year-old male ferret was diagnosed with hyperadrenocorticism complicated by dilatative cardiomyopathy, chronic active hepatitis, and renal disease, following symptoms including progressive hair loss and severe dehydration.

This review discusses the traditional use and potential application of Polygoni multiflori radix for androgenetic alopecia treatment, emphasizing its promising safety profile but reporting no new clinical results.

This study on Antirrhinum trichomes found that stickiness in A. hispanicum is due to a recessive allele and mapped it to a specific region on Chromosome 1, while baldness in A. siculum likely involves a novel hairy allele.

This case report from the study describes a dog suffering from dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis, presenting with alopecia on the neck and ear, illustrating the zoonotic risk of these fungal infections in both animals and humans, particularly in hot and humid climates.

This anatomical study on Eclipta alba concluded that unique secretory structures in stems and leaves may serve as identifying features of the plant and the Asteraceae family.

This study suggests that the presence of Malassezia hyphae may contribute to the development of androgenetic alopecia, as treatment with antifungal agents reduced fungal load and halted hair loss.

This study reported successful treatment of sarcoptic mange in two wild bare-nosed wombats using three topical doses of moxidectin, clearing skin crusting and mites within two weeks.

In this report, two Persian cats and their owner with low immunity due to chemotherapy were identified with a rare dermatophytic infection caused by Chrysosporium spp., and the infection improved following fluconazole treatment.

This study reports a case of a Persian cat with Malassezia pachydermatis infection, treated with fluconazole, topical miconazole shampoo, and a skin tonic. The cat showed remarkable clinical improvement after one week and fully recovered after four weeks.

This case report describes a 35-year-old man with Malassezia folliculitis occurring alongside granuloma annulare and alopecia areata, which had not been previously documented together.

In this study, the authors reported a case of alopecia X in a German Spitz dog and found that treatment with orchiectomy and melatonin resulted in partial hair regrowth and improved the dog's dermatological condition.

This review discusses the unique characteristics and taxonomy of Malassezia yeasts and examines current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in veterinary medicine; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found no significant histologic differences in skin structure based on age, sex, or woodchuck hepatitis virus infection status among woodchucks.

This study observed that mixed breed cows with alopecia, ill-thrift, and infertility had significant decreases in serum copper, zinc, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, and magnesium, alongside signs of anemia.

This case report describes a severe Sarcoptes scabiei infestation in a stray FIV-positive cat, which typically is a non-permissive host for the mite, leading to considerable clinical recovery after treatment.

This study found that Piedraia hortae invades and damages human hair by slowly degrading keratin in the cortex, which may contribute to the fungus's persistence and the chronic nature of the infection.

This study found that mirex and TPA promote papilloma formation in CD-1 mouse skin through distinct populations of mutant Ha-ras cells, resulting in additive tumor yields.

This case study reports that moth-eaten alopecia and a macular rash, along with positive histopathology and serology tests, indicated a diagnosis of secondary syphilis in a 24-year-old male patient.

This case study reports the first clinical case of besnoitiosis in two donkeys in Italy, suggesting a wider distribution of the disease in European equids than previously expected.

In this study, a two-month-old dog diagnosed with scabiosis and toxocariosis showed significant clinical improvement after being treated with sarolaner and pyrantel, evidenced by resolved skin lesions, hair regrowth, and a return to normal abdominal size and oral mucosa color after 30 days.

This study reported allergic dermatitis in Brazilian donkeys linked to Culicoides insect bites, characterized by severe itching and skin lesions. The potential treatment with copaiba oil and multivitamin emulsion was explored, revealing its promise for managing this condition.

This study found that a significant number of boreal woodland caribou in NE British Columbia showed symptoms of trace mineral deficiencies and exposure to various pathogens, with substantial winter tick infestations affecting a majority of individuals.

This study found no correlation between clinical signs and sex steroid levels in ferrets with hyperadrenocorticism and noted that androstenedione was elevated in many cases.

This study found that alopecia in captive Rhesus macaques may be linked to chronic hypersensitivity dermatitis with CD4+ cell inflammation, possibly influenced by altered housing and reduced pathogen exposure.

This study identified new oxidative derivatives of finasteride, including a newly discovered metabolite, by using the fungus Macrophomina phaseolina.

In this study, researchers developed "Akaro Spectra," an antiparasitic tablet for dogs using cryodestruction of plant materials, which showed 100% efficacy against Otodectes cynotis ticks by the second day and 93.76% efficacy against Ixodes, Dermacentor, and Rhipicephalus ticks.

This study found that the subtilisin protease Sub3 from Microsporum canis is essential for adherence to the feline epidermis but is not necessary for invading epidermal structures.

This study observed that daily selenium sulfide shampoos successfully removed fungal spores hidden beneath the hair cuticle in patients infected with ectothrix Microsporum canis.
