This study found that oral minoxidil was associated with short-term improvements in clinical severity for androgenetic alopecia, whereas oral dutasteride did not show significant early clinical changes in the six-month follow-up.

This study found that fibroblast growth factor 9, initially secreted by γδ T cells, plays a key role in modulating hair follicle regeneration in mice after skin wounds.

This study found that 'smart' peptide hydrogels improved wound healing in a rat model of partial thickness burns, achieving greater wound closure and faster debridement compared to a standard treatment.

This review discusses the pathogenesis and challenges in treating primary cicatricial alopecia, highlighting the need to understand immune protection collapse in hair follicle stem cells; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that permanent alopecia can occur after certain chemotherapy treatments and presents as nonscarring hair loss similar to androgenetic alopecia, with specific histological features that could be misdiagnosed without proper clinicopathological correlation.

This study found that grafting split-thickness human skin onto nude mice produces scars that mimic hypertrophic scar characteristics in humans, offering a useful model for studying scar formation and treatments.

This study introduces the "HoVert" technique, which generates both vertical and horizontal sections from a single biopsy to effectively differentiate lichen planopilaris from discoid lupus erythematosus in alopecia cases.

This case report describes a rare instance of tinea capitis in a 19-year-old male, initially misdiagnosed as dissecting cellulitis, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis to prevent scarring alopecia.

This study describes patients with moderate to severe scarring alopecia of the scalp margin and suggests that traction is not the sole cause for this condition, as half of the patients had no history of harsh hairstyling practices.

This study identified upregulation of genes linked to fibroproliferative disorders, such as platelet-derived growth factor and collagen genes, in patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

This case study reported a diagnosis of dermatophytic pseudomycetoma in a Persian cat with dermal nodules, highlighting potential heritable predisposition and suggesting systemic antifungal therapy for fair prognosis.

This article describes a case of late-onset focal dermal elastosis in a 73-year-old woman, characterized by flat pale yellow lesions and increased normal elastic fibers, distinct from pseudoxanthoma elasticum.

This review discusses histologic findings in alopecia and emphasizes the importance of understanding normal follicular anatomy and cycles in transverse sections, without reporting new results.

This article provides a guide for surgeons on repairing poorly executed hair transplants, emphasizing meticulous techniques and optimal use of limited hair supply to achieve cosmetic improvements.

This case report describes oleoma on the thighs and buttocks appearing two years after an injection for cellulite treatment, suggesting the need for more research to ensure the procedure's safety and efficacy.

This review article highlights that mesotherapy, a popular non-surgical procedure in aesthetic dermatology, involves injecting a mixture of compounds into the skin for purposes like skin rejuvenation and hair loss treatment, but lacks large-scale studies on its efficacy and safety.

This review outlines the clinical and histopathological features that aid in classifying tumors arising from the folliculosebaceous apparatus and reports no new research results.

This study attempts to classify histomorphologic reactions to drugs to aid in diagnosing drug eruptions, which are common in hospitalized patients but lack specific diagnostic features.

This study discusses patterns of androgenetic alopecia in Indian men but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report presents a rare instance of coexistent tumid lupus erythematosus and systemic lupus erythematosus in a patient, with symptom improvement noted after hydroxychloroquine treatment.

This review describes the edge out punch for follicular unit excision, which may reduce follicle transection with its thicker walls and internal bevel design compared to other punch shapes, but reports no new clinical results.

Photodynamic therapy may not work for erythroplasia of Queyrat and could lead to invasive squamous cell carcinoma.

This study found that topical curcumin can initiate hair growth in mice by acting as a JAK inhibitor but could not fully reverse alopecia areata, likely due to insufficient penetration to deeper skin layers.

In this study, daily topical minoxidil treatment in neonatal hairless pups led to increased hair growth and the development of hair follicles in the treated areas.

This article reviews historical uses of the term "lupus" for various skin disorders but provides no new clinical findings.

This study used multiphoton microscopy to successfully visualize rabbit skin microstructure, highlighting its noninvasive potential for future skin research related to diseases and wound healing.

This narrative literature review examined how linking embryonic development with non-genetic skin anomalies can improve diagnostic accuracy, guide prenatal counseling, and enrich dermatology education by revealing specific vulnerabilities in skin morphogenesis and supporting advances in regenerative medicine.

This study found that repeated use of a protein hair conditioner, followed by hot air and gamma irradiation, may lower serum collagen I and increase heat shock protein concentrations in rats, suggesting potential cumulative risks.

The meeting showcased rare skin disease cases, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that the occipital scalp had significantly higher epidermal nerve fiber density than the frontoparietal scalp, which may explain increased sensitivity in some patients.
