This study identified chronic selenosis in horses in western Iowa due to elevated selenium intake from locally produced alfalfa hay, leading to symptoms like alopecia and hoof deformities.

In this study, individuals with a c.1072C > T mutation in the EDAR gene showed more hair shaft deformations compared to non-mutation carriers, highlighting EDAR's role in hair follicle development.

This article on pediculosis lacks an abstract and does not report new research findings.

This chapter reviews secondary soft tissue revision surgeries for residual defects in patients with orofacial clefts, highlighting the various aesthetic issues and their surgical management after reaching skeletal maturity.

This study found that torsional measurements can effectively distinguish the effects of hair care products on the cuticle versus the cortex of hair fibers, unlike tensile measurements.

This study presents a new method for evaluating cosmetic treatments by measuring the resistance of hair to mechanical wear, revealing differences related to hair ethnicity and treatment type.

This study observed that applying a pulling force to hair follicles led to significant compression of nuclei in certain cell layers and distinct collagen changes at different follicle depths.

This review discusses the link between selenium levels in the environment and related diseases in China, reporting no clinical results; the authors highlight the need for clearer geographic risk and remediation strategies.

In this study, all 26 patients with epidermolysis bullosa were found to have extensive dental caries, with various dental and oral complications varying by EB type, due in part to inadequate oral care and associated physical limitations.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of pincer nail deformity in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus, potentially linked to Raynaud's phenomena as a contributing factor.

Different nail disorders are treated by targeting their specific causes and using appropriate medications or protective measures.

In this study, pediatric patients with overt polyautoimmunity frequently had systemic lupus erythematosus as an index disease, with clustering patterns revealing familial influence on autoimmune disease aggregation.

In this study, ASC-enriched autologous fat grafting was found to be more effective and satisfying than conventional fat grafting for treating facial contour deformities with hyperpigmentation.

Technique effectively treats deformities, achieves re-pigmentation, and releases scar contractures.

This article reviews techniques for repairing scalp deformities and concludes that combining older methods with modern hair restoration allows for satisfactory treatment of large scarred areas.

This review discusses the post-burn deformities seen after healing from acute burns and emphasizes the need for integrated, multidisciplinary management to prevent these sequelae; it reports no new clinical results.

This article describes techniques for correcting cosmetic deformities caused by older hair flap surgeries, restoring a more natural appearance.

This article reviews the complex challenges of managing scalp and cranial deformities post-trauma or surgery, advocating for better multidisciplinary approaches to enhance outcomes, but reports no new results.

This study examined two cases of bubble hair deformity using light and electron microscopy, suggesting that trauma to the hair shaft may contribute to this condition.

This study found that human hair exhibits significant deformation in its intermediate filaments under strain, with recovery taking about 1000 minutes, suggesting a self-healing period post-mechanical stress. Additionally, cuticle scales deform much less than the cortex, and the Poisson ratio aligns with soft matter properties.

This article reports that a series of techniques can effectively improve cosmetic deformities caused by Juri and Elliott flap procedures, restoring patients to a more natural appearance.

This study found that single-crystal magnesium samples smaller than 100 nm exhibited increased plastic deformation due to greater activation of nonbasal planes as local flow stresses approached 2 GPa.

This study investigated the mechanical response of the human hair cuticle to strain and found that cuticular deformation directly corresponded with fiber elongation, revealing significant molecular-level changes in disulfide crosslinks but maintained structural stability, highlighting the role of the cuticle in stress resistance.

In this case report, researchers described a 6-year-old girl with severe mandibuloacral dysplasia type A, noting unique physical deformities and a rare homozygous LMNA gene mutation not commonly associated with the condition.

This article discusses techniques to avoid common signs of facial rejuvenation surgery and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes preventing recognizable outcomes like unnatural hairlines and ear deformities.

This study found that selenium levels were significantly high in two districts of Punjab, with associated selenosis symptoms like poor health, hoof deformities, and hair loss in affected livestock.

This case report describes a 27-year-old female with Werner syndrome, highlighting its early onset, severe metabolic disturbances, and congenital deformities, suggesting consideration of WS in early childhood diabetes and hyperlipidemia diagnoses.

This study found that the Nod factor from Rhizobium meliloti, particularly at concentrations of 10-8 and 10-7 M, induced specific membrane depolarization and root-hair deformation in Medicago sativa, depending on the stage of cell differentiation.

This study by Moore et al. (2025) provides the first evidence linking C-tactile afferents in humans to hair follicles, showing that these nerve fibers respond to hair movement rather than skin deformation, adding complexity to the understanding of their role in emotion and touch.

This study introduced a rapid rehydration approach for creating customizable, multifunctional hydrogel sensors, enabling precise detection of surface deformations and easy integration of layers, highlighting its potential for standardized and adaptable manufacturing of wearable devices.
