This article presents a comprehensive overview of hair microscopy techniques and their diagnostic potential for systemic and cutaneous disorders, emphasizing its usefulness in resource-limited settings and highlighting the underutilization of this non-invasive method due to lack of awareness.

This study suggests that measuring scalp hair 17-hydroxyprogesterone and androstenedione concentrations can be a promising tool for monitoring treatment in children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study reported the first documented case of congenital hypotrichosis in a white-tailed deer, based on histologic examination of a fawn collected in South Dakota.

This study found that mutations in the hairless gene in mice disrupt hair follicle integrity during catagen, leading to baldness due to disintegrating epithelial structures and loss of normal dermal papilla.

This case report documents a female toddler with novel compound heterozygous mutations in the VDR gene causing hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets, expanding the known mutation spectrum for this disease.

This study found that dermatology consultations in a tertiary care center led to treatment changes in most cases, especially for complex conditions potentially linked to systemic disease.

A 72-year-old man was diagnosed with a rare skin form of Rosai-Dorfman disease after years of misdiagnosis.

This study found that co-drugs synthesized from hydroquinone and tranexamic acid improved skin targeting and deposition, with reduced irritation and enhanced efficacy for treating hyperpigmentation.

This study introduced hair capacitance mapping as a promising technique for assessing hair surface moisture dynamics, revealing that weathered hair loses moisture more quickly than intact hair.

This study found that applying HHORSC exosomes may enhance the hair inductivity of dermal papilla cells, potentially improving treatments for hair loss.

This study described an Appenzeller Mountain Dog with clinical signs of an NSDHL defect, discovering a large heterozygous de novo deletion spanning the entire NSDHL gene through whole genome sequencing.

This study found that selectively targeting HDAC4 and HDAC7 in mice can reduce Th17 cell-mediated intestinal inflammation, suggesting a potential treatment approach for Th17-related inflammatory diseases like ulcerative colitis.

This study found that androgens increase Odc1 expression in skeletal muscle myoblasts, promoting proliferation and delaying differentiation.

This study describes the diagnosis and successful management of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome in a 78-year-old man, highlighting improvement in symptoms and endoscopic findings after treatment with prednisone and supportive therapies.

This review discusses the use of hair cortisol concentration as a marker for chronic stress and long-term cortisol secretion in animals, highlighting its benefits and the need for standardized sampling protocols.

This announcement outlines job opportunities at the Anderson Center for Hair and provides no clinical research findings.

This abstract contains no research findings; it describes website service information and options for accessing content from JAMA Dermatology.

This study suggests that dermoscopy provides additional insights for diagnosing pattern alopecia in short coated dogs, beyond what is visible through standard dermatological examination.

In this study, the researchers developed a hydrogel mimicking the fetal environment that significantly accelerated wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in vivo, with over 94% wound closure in 14 days, surpassing hydrogels lacking certain additives.

This review discusses the causes, clinical features, diagnostic approach, and treatment options for hirsutism in women, but reports no new findings.

This study suggests that lithocholic acid may enhance hair regeneration in alopecia by activating vitamin D receptors in human dermal papilla cells.

This article discusses how activating the hexosamine pathway may enhance skin homeostasis by increasing hyaluronic acid secretion and supporting hair follicle stem cell self-renewal, but reports no new results.

This study found that the GPRC6A-Duox1 signaling pathway influences hair cycle progression and testosterone-mediated hair loss in mice, suggesting that disruption of this pathway leads to resistance against testosterone-induced hair loss and longer anagen phase duration.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, but reports no new research results.

This study introduces "Homeodynamic Rejuvenation" as a method to restore the skin's resilience by enhancing its ability to detect and recover from stress, focusing on five core biological processes critical for maintaining skin function and health amidst environmental and metabolic challenges.

This compilation reviews multiple dermatologic studies, reporting findings such as the lack of a psoriasis-susceptibility allele in cluster 17, and highlighting a mouse model for studying hair follicle formation, among others.

In this study, idiopathic hirsutism was identified as the most common cause of hirsutism among the patients, followed by polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This article reviews the use of hair cortisol concentration as a biomarker to assess long-term stress in both animals and humans, but it reports no new experimental results.

In this study, both physician and patient reports revealed that more severe alopecia areata was associated with higher emotional symptoms and greater activity limitations among patients.

This study found that overexpression of the enzyme ornithine decarboxylase in transgenic mice led to UVB-induced skin tumors, but this was prevented by the ODC inhibitor α-difluoromethylornithine.
