This study found that the imidacloprid/flumethrin collar (Seresto®) is chemically compatible with major spot-on formulations and dermally and systemically safe for adult dogs and cats when used together.

This study found that topical diphenylcyclopropenone was effective in treating severe alopecia areata but had a high relapse rate and was often accompanied by side effects like eczema and lymphadenopathy.

This case study reports that a 6-year-old girl with pediculosis capitis experienced scalp pruritus, pustules, crusting, excoriation, and cicatricial alopecia but showed a good clinical response to permethrin and antibiotics, with no lice detected afterward.

This study introduces a mouse model of cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia, which effectively replicates human chemotherapy-induced hair loss and can be pharmacologically manipulated to study hair regrowth patterns.

The researchers found that combining permethrin (44%) and fluralaner effectively reduced tick load in moose calves, as indicated by less severe hair loss, compared to untreated calves, while topical permethrin (5%) alone had no clear effect on tick load, body mass, or hematocrit.

In this study, researchers evaluated the antifungal effectiveness of topical products on infected kitten hair, finding most were effective after one application, with enilconazole and lime sulfur showing residual activity; however, 0.15% ketoconazole with chlorhexidine had no such lasting effect.

This study found that CPA-loaded nanoparticles, particularly SLN formulations, increased CPA epidermal penetration compared to a conventional cream and may reduce side effects in treating androgen-dependent conditions.

In this case report, two Persian cats with Lynxacarus radovskyi fur mites and symptoms like mild alopecia and pruritus fully recovered after receiving selamectin spot-on treatment monthly for three months.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl with an extensive Microsporum canis scalp infection, highlighting griseofulvin as the preferred treatment and noting corticosteroids' benefit in severe inflammatory cases.

In this study, gamma benzene hexachloride washes successfully resolved skin disease in guinea pigs affected by Trixacarus caviae, after confirmation via skin scrapings.

This review discusses systemic antifungal treatments for tinea capitis in children, noting that newer agents like terbinafine and itraconazole require shorter courses than the traditional griseofulvin, but may be more costly.

This review discusses the use of topical immunotherapy for severe alopecia areata and resistant viral warts, highlighting diphencyprone's advantages and the need for careful handling to avoid staff sensitisation; it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the unique pharmacokinetic limitations of terbinafine in children with tinea capitis and reports no new clinical results, highlighting the need for consideration of these factors in future studies.

This study found that cyclophosphamide treatment in cashmere goats significantly increased cashmere yield by inducing shedding without affecting fiber length, with a 20 mg/kg body weight dose being optimal for hair removal and regrowth.

This study reports that while DCP had similar treatment efficacy in propylene glycol and isopropanol for alopecia areata, the formulation in isopropanol was better tolerated.

This study found that a single application of 0.1% aqueous benzalkonium chloride solution effectively treated dermatomycosis caused by Trichophyton species in guinea pigs.

This study found that topical Ivermectin 0.1% was the most effective treatment for rabbit mange among the tested options, achieving 100% survival, no persistent skin scales, and significant body weight changes, while topical cebacil gel resulted in 100% mortality and should not be used.

This study concluded that intramuscular administration of medium-dose cyproterone acetate with oral ethinylestradiol is highly effective in managing hirsutism, showing better response rates than high-dose oral treatment.

This study provides genomic and epigenomic insights into the white wax scale insect, highlighting high methylation levels and differential hormone profiles linked to its sexual dimorphism and developmental differences.

This study found that tamoxifen citrate markedly inhibited castration-induced diffuse hair growth in castrated female mice, while cyproterone showed only slight inhibition in male mice.

In this study, ketoconazole treatment successfully cured a dog with erythematous epilation caused by Chaetomium globosum, with new hair growth observed 9 weeks later.

This review discusses pediculosis capitis, emphasizing its diagnosis and treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for concurrent treatment of all close contacts.

This report describes a 9-year-old girl with a scalp kerion treated successfully with terbinafine and ketoconazole shampoo, leading to hair regrowth after two months.

In this study, a female dog with ectoparasite infestation was treated for two weeks using wormectin, diphenhydramine, chlorpheniramine maleate, dexamethasone, and amoxicillin, resulting in improved symptoms such as reduced itching, closure of skin ulcers, and hair regrowth.

In this case report, the 14-day treatment with ivermectin, sulfur baths, antihistamines, and supplements resulted in significant recovery in a cat with scabies and sporotrichosis, except for persistent alopecia on the ear pinna. The authors recommend maintaining a clean environment to prevent reinfection.

In this study, topically applying 2% ketoconazole cream twice daily for 21 days was found effective in treating dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis in cats, showing approximately 85% improvement in skin lesions and the disappearance of the fungi.

This paper discusses various toxicological properties of diphenyl cresyl phosphate, highlighting its low acute toxicity, potential neurotoxicity linked to o-cresyl phosphate content, and the lack of data for inhalation exposure, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study reports that Cyperus rotundus L. (nut grass) shows promise as a natural hair removal agent, with compounds targeting hair follicles and potentially offering an alternative to chemical depilatories, demonstrated by its efficacy in clinical trials and comparable results to some laser treatments.
