Obese Hispanic women with PCOS are at higher risk for metabolic problems than non-Hispanic white women.

This randomized pilot study suggests that finasteride may benefit some men with category IIIA chronic pelvic pain syndrome, although it is not recommended as monotherapy unless benign prostatic hyperplasia is also present.

This genome-wide association study of over 70,000 men identified 71 genetic loci linked to male pattern baldness, highlighting pathways that could help explain its underlying biology.

This study found that forming inclusion complexes of DPCP with HPβCD using the 3D ground mixture method enhances its anti-inflammatory activity at lower doses compared to complexes with β-CD.

In this study, cicatricial alopecias were classified by inflammatory cell type and the researchers highlighted that primary cicatricial alopecia's exact causes remain unknown, accounting for 6% of all hair diseases despite its unclear prevalence.

This review discusses primary cicatricial alopecias, detailing their classification, pathogenesis, clinical features, histopathologic findings, and treatment, without reporting new experimental results.

This study found that among Large White × Min pigs, 15 significant copy number variation regions were associated with villi hair traits, and identified candidate genes potentially linked to cold resistance, suggesting implications for breeding cold-resistant pigs.

This study describes the development of the EUSCLE Core Set Questionnaire for cutaneous lupus erythematosus, designed to standardize data collection, facilitate epidemiological analysis, and guide diagnostic and therapeutic strategies across European centers.

In a study conducted on mice, researchers observed that exposure to ionizing radiation led to significant metabolic imbalances, including dyslipidemia and disruptions in amino acid metabolism, with activated protein C providing partial protection by normalizing certain plasma metabolites and lipids.

This phase I study reported that ETC-159, targeting Wnt signalling, showed tolerable safety profiles at doses that inhibit its pathway, though bone turnover markers increased, warranting early and regular monitoring. No tumor responses were observed, but two patients achieved stable disease for several cycles.

This literature review discusses the need for a clinical practice guideline to help Canadian Nurse Practitioners in diagnosing and managing PCOS, noting its complexity and lack of existing guidelines.

This study of HCPS survivors in Chile found that 61.9% reported incomplete recovery at 3-6 months post-symptom onset, with ECMO users experiencing more motor dysfunction and palpitations, highlighting the need for multidisciplinary care to address persistent symptoms.

This case report describes the first known occurrence of urticaria pigmentosa in a domestic shorthair cat, where oral dexamethasone and cetirizine hydrochloride offered effective management following a comprehensive diagnostic work-up.

This case report describes the first known instance of dermatomyositis-related panniculitis in the neck and mediastinal region, effectively treated with corticosteroids, dapsone, and colchicine.

Among pediatric alopecia areata patients treated with DPCP, this study reported complete hair regrowth in 8.8% and any regrowth in 61.8% after one year, with better outcomes for those with milder initial symptoms and longer treatment durations.

This study suggests that cold atmospheric microwave plasma treatment may promote hair renewal by activating β-catenin and YAP/TAZ signaling in human dermal papilla cells.

This study suggests that patients with severe, extensive central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia may exhibit a distinct gene expression pattern in the lesional scalp, highlighting potential targets for future research on disease severity and therapies.

This report presents a rare case of a patient with type Wong dermatomyositis who also exhibits clinical and histologic features of porokeratosis, potentially signaling associated malignancies in dermatomyositis patients.

In this study, the AA genotype of C2 polymorphism was more frequently observed in Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus than controls, indicating it may be a risk factor for the disease.

Mutations in the P2RY5 gene cause hereditary woolly hair.

This study found that HPV-150 and HPV-151 are rare genotypes with a preference for skin tissue, detected in some cases of skin lesions with generally low viral loads.

This report describes a Cronkhite-Canada syndrome patient with severe sepsis and disseminated intravascular coagulation successfully treated using combined therapies, including recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin.

This study found a significant association between pseudofolliculitis barbae and mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, but not with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

This study found that the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome was 6.5% in a minimally biased sample of Caucasian women from Spain.

This study suggests that autologous platelet concentrates may improve inflammatory activity, disease control, and hair regrowth in primary cicatricial alopecia, but the evidence is limited by small sample sizes and study quality.

This study found that dermatoscopy is useful for diagnosing and assessing primary cicatricial alopecias in Chinese patients, with alopecia mucinosa having a distinct feature of patulous follicular openings.

In this study, treatment with DPCP alone was more effective for hair regrowth and presented fewer side effects in chronic extensive alopecia areata compared to combination therapy with DPCP and anthralin.

This study reports the first known case of oral lichen planus preceding lichen planopilaris in a patient, highlighting a possible sequential relationship between the conditions.
