This article discusses recent advancements in hair transplantation techniques that combine art and science for more natural results, but reports no new clinical findings.

This commentary explores the marketing of unproven and unlicensed adipose-derived stem cell treatments in US clinics, highlighting concerns about patient safety and regulatory challenges.

This study found that follicular density and various hair growth ratios differ statistically between nonscarring and scarring alopecia, though significant overlap exists due to factors like sample size and scalp variation.

This study reports that Ca 2+ binding alters the dynamics and surface properties of PKD-like domains in Clostridium histolyticum collagenases, enhancing their stability and potentially aiding in collagen-targeting vehicle development.

This study found that arginine-loaded lipidic nanoparticles improved hair follicle growth in male hamsters more effectively than an aqueous arginine solution.

This study found that patients with oral lichen planus and oral lichenoid reactions have higher levels of serum cholesterol and LDL-C than healthy individuals, suggesting a potential elevated risk for cardiovascular disease.

This study found that keratoacanthoma of the lip likely arises from outer root sheath cells, based on the presence of specific keratin markers and periodic acid-Schiff staining patterns.

In this study of 30 severe anorexia nervosa patients, true acquired pili torti was not found although twisted hair was observed in 6.6% of cases.

This review discusses a multistage hand rejuvenation protocol involving topical therapies, intense pulsed light, autologous fat injections, and surgical excision, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the need for a globally standardized protocol for epidemiologic studies of polycystic ovary syndrome to improve study comparability and public health policy.

This discussion highlights the use of minimal incision extraction for lipoma removal, noting that it is a favored technique among dermatologists due to its efficiency, despite some hesitance with larger lipomas.

This article discusses follicular cell implantation as a potential solution for hair restoration limitations, but notes inconsistencies and challenges in human applications, reporting no new clinical results.

This report describes a three-generation family with Cantú syndrome linked to a novel ABCC9 gene variant, featuring acromegaloid appearance and hypertrichosis without growth hormone abnormalities, and suggests a potential association with pituitary adenomas.

This study revealed that in androgenic alopecia, the proximal attachment of the arrector pili muscle to the hair follicle is often lost or significantly reduced.

This review covers the variability in methods for preparing platelet-rich plasma and reports no new clinical results, suggesting that this variability may contribute to inconsistent efficacy in clinical trials.

This study found that mixtures used in permanent hair dyes had irritant effects on reconstructed human epidermis, while individual ingredients alone did not.

This study identified a novel mutation in the EDA gene, which may impair protein stabilization and be involved in the development of oligodontia and mild ectodermal dysplasia phenotypes.

This review discusses the nocebo effect in dermatology, highlighting its mechanisms, implications, and strategies to manage it, but does not provide new clinical research findings.

Older adults still engage in sexual activities but face challenges like health issues and lack of professional support, highlighting the need for better healthcare provider education and research on sexual fulfillment in old age.

This study found that musculoskeletal symptoms such as pain and fatigue among hair restoration surgeons were more common and lasted longer after performing follicular unit extraction compared to strip excision procedures.

This study describes a method for labeling and tracking hair follicle stem cells in mouse skin using a Cre/lox recombination system with tamoxifen, providing insights into stem cell behavior and contribution to tissue regeneration.

This study identified a genetic variant in the SGK3 gene related to hairlessness in Scottish Deerhounds, suggesting a similar role for androgen-independent hair loss in humans.

In this study, researchers identified a novel homozygous variant in the FAM83G gene responsible for autosomal recessively inherited palmoplantar keratoderma with curly hair in a consanguineous Pakistani family, suggesting FAM83G plays a crucial role in skin and hair homeostasis.

This article highlights that a low suspicion for tinea capitis in adults with scaling and hair loss may delay diagnosis and treatment, urging confirmation through KOH, fungal culture, or biopsy.

Finasteride caused blisters on hands and feet.

This study found that epidermal melanocytes can regenerate hair follicles, whereas non-cutaneous or dermal melanocytes cannot, suggesting two distinct melanocyte lineages with potential implications for melanocyte-related diseases.

In this study, transvaginal hydrolaparoscopy ovarian drilling in CC-resistant women with PCOS significantly improved ovulation and pregnancy rates over a six-month period, with 82.9% ovulating and a 70.1% pregnancy rate by the end of the study.

This review discusses the relationship between ectodermal alterations and immunodeficiencies, particularly the roles of hyper-IgE syndrome, ectodermal dysplasia, and FOXN1 gene mutations, but it presents no new research findings.

This study found that cyclosporine A's enhancement of hair growth in mice is partly due to its ability to block the nuclear translocation of apoptosis-inducing factor, slowing the hair follicle transition to the catagen phase.

This article reviews options and principles for reconstructing defects of the scalp, skull, orbit, and maxilla, but reports no new clinical results.
