In this study, the prevalence of skin changes in hospitalized children with acute illness, categorized by nutritional status, was lower than previously reported, and the SKORDoK tool was less reliable for dermatological assessment using photographs.

Polarizing light microscopy can easily and reliably diagnose congenital keratinizing disorders like Netherton syndrome.

In this study of 50 rural children with tinea capitis, 64% had the non-inflammatory type, while 28% had the inflammatory type, with most cases showing positive results in KOH examinations.

The document concludes that various skin conditions have specific characteristics and treatments, and highlights the importance of vitamin D in managing these dermatological issues.

This review summarizes evidence that pityrosporum folliculitis in immunocompromised patients responds well to topical antifungals and treatment of underlying conditions, based on a limited number of studies with small sample sizes.

This case study presented a 16-year-old male with dermatosis neglecta and obsessive-compulsive disorder, where his skin condition improved after proper cleansing and psychiatric treatment, suggesting that DN may also indicate underlying psychiatric issues.

This study reports that folliculitis decalvans and lichen planopilaris phenotypic spectrum is an underdiagnosed form of cicatricial alopecia, potentially treatable with anti-inflammatory drugs used for lichen planopilaris.

This review discusses the cutaneous manifestations associated with HIV infection, highlighting that these skin conditions often present atypically and are more severe compared to those in non-HIV-infected individuals; it reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews the clinical challenges in diagnosing tinea capitis due to its varying symptoms and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for careful differential diagnosis.

This review discusses fungal skin diseases in goats, highlighting rare vitamin E-, selenium-, and zinc-responsive dermatoses without reporting new clinical results.

In this case study, a 7-year-old boy with kerion celsi experienced persistent inflammation even after microbiological clearance; dermoscopic-guided removal of hair and keratin debris improved his condition, suggesting a novel inflammatory mechanism involving granulomatous response to keratinous debris in tinea capitis.

In this study, researchers found that adult tinea capitis in Korea shows unique epidemiological and clinical features compared to children, which may lead to misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis.

This study conducted in Batam City found a 10.79% prevalence of alopecia among 417 captured bats across seven species, with higher rates in fragmented urban forests associated with anthropogenic pressures, highlighting the influence of habitat conditions on bat health.

This study reports a case of bovine besnoitiosis in Germany characterized by specific skin lesions, with diagnosis confirmed through histopathology, serology, and PCR as Besnoitia besnoiti.

This article reviews comprehensive surveys on the prevalence and impact of skin disease in resource-poor countries, but reports no new clinical results; it highlights challenges such as health literacy and service access.

This correspondence discusses nasal sporotrichosis in children and does not report any clinical results.

A woman's scalp infection caused by a fungus led to permanent hair loss and was hard to treat but responded to a specific antifungal.

In Ethiopia, this study found that certain skin and mucous membrane disorders, particularly oral conditions, were statistically related to HIV infection and may assist in early detection of the disease.

This case report describes a rare instance of dissecting cellulitis of the scalp in a White child, which is uncommon in pediatric cases and presented challenges in diagnosis and treatment.

This report describes two cases of urticarial id reaction linked to tinea capitis profunda, highlighting a potential new etiology for this rare condition.

In this case report, the authors found that pigmented demodicosis, caused by Demodex mites, led to facial hyperpigmentation in a 16-year-old male and showed significant improvement with oral isotretinoin and topical ivermectin treatment.

In this case study, a 3-year-old with tinea capitis achieved complete resolution following treatment, highlighting hair salons as potential indirect transmission sites for infection and emphasizing trichoscopy's diagnostic value when traditional signs like Wood’s lamp fluorescence are missing.

This article describes how HIV-related skin disorders vary in presentation among pigmented skin types and highlights challenges in their diagnosis due to atypical disease manifestations.

This study reported a case of equine ringworm infection in a 2-year-old horse caused by Nannizzia gypsea, confirmed through culture and SYBR-Green real-time PCR techniques, demonstrating that qPCR allows specific detection of dermatophytes more rapidly than conventional methods.

This case study in a veterinary setting reported the successful recovery of a camel diagnosed with Sarcoptes scabiei infection, following treatment with ivermectin and multivitamins over a five-week period.

This study investigated pododermatitis in 300 dogs and found West Highland White Terriers, Shar-Peis, and French Bulldogs were predominantly affected by allergic pododermatitis. It also observed that interdigital skin was primarily involved in cases of atopic dermatitis and pododemodicosis.

This case report suggests that Demodex infection should be considered in patients with facial scaling and itching, as observed in a 36-year-old woman in Tabriz testing positive for the mites.
