This study highlights that traumatic anserine folliculosis is a benign condition often seen in young males, which can be diagnosed without invasive biopsies using clinical examination and dermoscopy.

This review highlights that diagnosing cicatricial alopecia, a hair loss condition linked to several autoimmune diseases, requires trichoscopy and histopathological examination to differentiate it from similar conditions, with early diagnosis being crucial for effective management.

In this study conducted from September to November 2023, researchers used trichoscopy to accurately diagnose cicatricial alopecias by revealing unique patterns, reducing the need for biopsies, and proving to be a valuable non-invasive diagnostic method.

This review examines the potential of K18 as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in epithelial-derived tumors, highlighting its specific expression in tumor tissues and interaction with proteins involved in tumor progression, without reporting new clinical findings.

In this case report, a two-year-old girl with acrodermatitis enteropathica was misdiagnosed for over a year before low serum zinc levels led to the correct diagnosis, and her skin lesions resolved completely after two weeks of zinc sulfate treatment.

In this case study, a 62-year-old woman with severe hyperandrogenism underwent a clomiphene test, which suggested an ovarian origin for her condition, leading to the discovery of a Leydig cell tumor after a bilateral oophorectomy.

This review explores the applicability of the current PCOS diagnostic criteria, highlighting the need to reassess these criteria in light of new evidence on the disorder's heterogeneity and potential subtypes.

This report describes a case where dermoscopy of shed hair helped diagnose post-COVID acute telogen effluvium by revealing depigmented club-shaped bulbs, highlighting its potential as a noninvasive diagnostic tool.

In this case report, a patient's atypical neuropsychiatric and dermatological symptoms were crucial for diagnosing systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the disease's clinical heterogeneity and the importance of early detection to prevent organ damage.

This review discusses the complexities of managing polycystic ovarian syndrome in females, examining its various phenotypes and treatment options, but it does not present new clinical findings.

This paper identifies challenges in diagnosing alopecia variants, emphasizing the importance of pathologists understanding hair follicle histology, biopsy types, and collaborating with dermatologists to improve diagnostic accuracy.

This study suggests that MUC1 expression is significantly higher in follicular mucinoses compared to other dermal mucinoses, particularly in lymphoma-associated forms, indicating its potential as a target for immunotherapy.

Trichoscopy is effective in diagnosing trichotillomania by showing specific hair patterns.

This review discusses telogen effluvium, including its causes, symptoms, diagnostic methods, and treatment strategies, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study examined 50 patients with alopecia areata and found that trichoscopy can identify specific patterns, such as white dots in 90% of cases and black dots in 80%, aiding in assessing disease activity and severity without invasive procedures.

This study observed that trichoscopy can identify specific patterns in alopecia areata, such as white and black dots, which assists in non-invasive diagnosis and assessing disease severity.

There are two main types of alopecia areata with different severity, and diagnosis is made through clinical examination and trichoscopy, influencing treatment choices.

This study concludes that one year after COVID-19 infection, patients in Northeast Brazil showed improvements in quality of life, although some symptoms such as anxiety and memory loss persisted.

This study found that consensus was not reached among Costa Rican dermatologists on diagnosis and treatment criteria for lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia using the Delphi method.

This study suggests that hair cortisol measurement could serve as an alternative diagnostic method for Cushing’s disease, showing acceptable concordance with urinary free cortisol despite differing evaluated periods.

This study conducted at Madras Veterinary College found that tick infestation was the most frequent diagnosis among hospitalized dogs with dermatological issues, with ectoparasiticides prescribed in 73% of cases.

This study developed a novel system that can automatically estimate hair loss parameters from images without expert input, reporting satisfactory results from testing on samples collected in Kolkata.
