This review discusses the potential role of a PADI3 gene variant in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia among African-American women but reports no new clinical results.

This pilot study found that Optical Coherence Tomography can non-invasively resolve hair follicle density and hair shaft and follicle diameters in patients at varying stages of hair loss.

In this study, free flaps, specifically the ALT-free tissue transfer, were found to be safe and reliable for reconstructing large scalp defects requiring both scalp and skull repairs, with consistent results observed in clinical applications.

In this study, researchers reviewed current treatments for trichotillomania and found that psychotherapy, particularly cognitive-behavioral therapy like habit reversal training, is most effective, with some medications helping to alleviate symptoms, though further study is needed on their use.

This case report describes two patients with ulcerative colitis and alopecia areata who did not respond to various treatments but achieved remission and improved hair growth after starting tofacitinib.

This case report details two siblings with trichothiodystrophy, identifying reduced hair sulfur content as essential for diagnosis despite varied symptoms complicating recognition.

This review examines chronic telogen effluvium, highlighting its distinctive features and the need for reassurance about its non-progressive nature, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that dermatoscopic features can distinguish between tinea capitis and alopecia areata in children, with tinea capitis commonly showing comma hairs and alopecia areata showing exclamation mark hairs.

This case study reports significant improvements in joint pain and hair regrowth in a 31-year-old female with alopecia universalis, psoriasis vulgaris, and psoriatic arthritis using a combination of tofacitinib and methotrexate after other treatments failed.

In this study, trichoscopy significantly improved diagnostic accuracy in non-cicatricial alopecia, identifying alopecia areata as the most common cause and effectively aiding diagnosis in 28.2% of ambiguous cases.

This case report describes the occurrence of a very rare disease, MTPC, in the elbow of a man who does not match the typical etiology, highlighting its academic significance.

Mutations in the TSPEAR gene cause a new form of ectodermal dysplasia affecting hair and tooth development.

This study reports that tofacitinib, a JAK 1/3 inhibitor, showed significant improvement in a patient with co-occurring severe alopecia totalis and lichen planus hypertrophicus, conditions that are typically resistant to treatment.

Learn how to avoid mistakes in consultant evaluations.

In this study, lecithin/n-propanol/isopropyl myristate/water/tetracaine hydrochloride microemulsion was found to be a safe carrier for transdermal drug delivery in animal models, with analgesic effects on Wistar rats.

In this study, tofacitinib and baricitinib showed similar effectiveness and safety in treating alopecia areata, but baricitinib had a higher rate of early responders. Baseline hair loss severity was identified as the only independent predictor of treatment response.

This study found that the K6/ODC transgenic mouse model is highly sensitive to identifying genotoxic carcinogens, showing 100% concordance with traditional rodent bioassays.

This article reviews the clinical challenges in diagnosing tinea capitis due to its varying symptoms and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for careful differential diagnosis.

This study analyzed trends in tissue expansion research and identified acellular dermal matrix's effect on breast reconstruction complications as a current key topic, with patient-activated controlled expansion as a potential future focus.

This study found that a titrated extract of Centella asiatica enhanced the hair growth potential of 3D spheroid cultured human dermal papilla cells.

This retrospective cohort study reported that oral tofacitinib was effective in treating alopecia areata, with 83.2% of patients showing improvement and 16.0% achieving complete remission. Earlier intervention and previous hair regrowth were linked to better outcomes, and no severe adverse events were observed.

This study found that human C-tactile afferents respond to hair deflection, suggesting a functionally relevant anatomical relationship to hair follicles similar to that observed in mice.

In this study, 1'-S-1'-acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) from Alpinia galanga showed potential in suppressing testosterone-induced hair loss by inhibiting Nox isozymes in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that trichilemmal carcinoma shares genetic changes with other skin cancers, suggesting a similar pathogenesis, particularly in those with aggressive clinical courses linked to TP53 mutations.

Oral tacrolimus helped a rheumatoid arthritis patient regrow hair lost due to alopecia areata.

This study found that the Transdermal Delivery System efficiently delivers testosterone systemically and showed bioequivalent hormone concentrations to a known topical gel in healthy males.

Hair transplantation can improve scars after removing a rare skin cancer.

This study observed that moderate to severe atopic dermatitis patients showed a higher prevalence of keratoconus compared to the general population, with 6.7% having manifest KC and 20% subclinical KC, highlighting the need for increased awareness among dermatologists.

In this study, researchers developed an enhanced rodent model of trigeminal neuralgia, demonstrating that structural and functional changes in the anterior cingulate cortex are linked to chronic pain and emotional disturbances, and chemogenetic inhibition of specific neurons could alleviate symptoms.
