This study suggests that patients with STSD show a different pattern in androgen activation compared to healthy controls, potentially due to increased 5α-reductase activity and absent prepubertal serum DHEA surge.

In this prospective phase II clinical trial, researchers are investigating whether adding dutasteride to combined androgen blockade can improve the response rate and clinical outcomes for patients with androgen receptor-positive recurrent or metastatic salivary duct carcinoma.

This study identified genetic variations in the DSG4 gene among sheep, revealing valuable markers for assessing their impact on wool traits.

In these two clinical trials, DS-2325a, a KLK5 inhibitor, was found to be generally safe and well tolerated in healthy volunteers, with mild and non-serious adverse events, suggesting its potential for further development as a treatment for Netherton Syndrome.

In laboratory tests and mouse models, this study found that the novel IPC analog SIG-1451 may offer potent anti-inflammatory effects for treating allergic skin inflammation, potentially outperforming some current therapies in specific inflammatory phases.

In this study, researchers observed that hand and forearm transplantation at Innsbruck Medical University showed variable long-term outcomes, with the severity of rejection episodes impacting patients' well-being and quality of life but not directly correlating with hand function.

This tool was developed to enhance reproducibility and sensitivity in measuring partial hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients, particularly those undergoing JAK inhibitor therapy, using scalp photographs.

This study reports that a lower 2D:4D finger length ratio is significantly associated with higher disease activity and reduced spinal mobility in females with ankylosing spondylitis, but not in males.

This report describes the enhancement of the French SNIIRAM/SNDS healthcare database through external data linkages, highlighting its potential use in medical research despite complexities in the integration process.

Dermatologic surgery has greatly improved with new techniques over the years.

This review explores disorders of sex development, emphasizing the need for a systematic, multidisciplinary approach and the benefits of genetic testing for better diagnosis and gender assignment planning, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This introduction highlights that a common challenge with managing dandruff, a mild form of seborrheic dermatitis, is compliance with treatment, and notes that selenium disulfide shampoo is beneficial for this condition.

This report describes three Saudi sisters with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, who exhibited typical features of the condition along with unusual gynecological anomalies.

In a retrospective cohort of patients with steroid 5 α-reductase 2 deficiency, this study identified seven novel genetic variants in the SRD5A2 gene, expanding the variant database and contributing to improved diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for the condition.

This study established a new reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method to accurately and precisely quantify silodosin and dutasteride in mixtures, meeting International Council of Harmonization validation criteria for stability, sensitivity, and recovery.

This report highlights a new genetic variant of Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in two sisters from the first identified family case in Russia, emphasizing the varied manifestations of the disorder and the importance of genetic testing for diagnosis and patient-specific treatment planning.

This review discusses squaric acid dibutylester's use, effects, and safety in treating alopecia areata, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that specific inhibition of the classical complement pathway with BIVV009 prevented C3 deposition along the dermal-epidermal junction in bullous pemphigoid, reflecting its potential efficacy.

This case report illustrates how SNP array testing helped identify a DCAF17 mutation linked to Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in consanguineous Qatari siblings with shared features including alopecia and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

This case report describes a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed Degos disease and non-scarring alopecia, highlighting dermoscopy's role in diagnosis and treatment prognosis.

This study found that 60% of examined prostate tumors had new somatic substitutions in the SRD5A2 gene, affecting enzyme activity and potentially influencing prostate cancer progression.

This study found that the DFS pattern occurs in about 28% of ANA-positive cases and is relatively frequent in autoimmune diseases, contrary to previous observations suggesting no link with these diseases.

This review discusses SAHA syndrome in women, characterized by seborrhea, acne, hirsutism, and/or androgenetic alopecia, and notes its similarity to polycystic ovary syndrome without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that the Cutaneous Lupus Disease Area and Severity Index (CLASI) is correlated with both physician-assessed and patient-reported outcomes in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, particularly highlighting concerns about body image in visible areas.

This study found that individuals with heterozygous truncation-type variants in the *DSP* gene exhibit lower skin temperature and higher transepidermal water loss, with specific microscopic skin changes and pseudomonilethrix.

In this study, researchers developed an open-source browser-based tool to enhance the reproducibility and accuracy of SALT score calculations from scalp photos, aimed particularly at assessing partial regrowth in alopecia areata patients on JAK inhibitor therapy.

This study found that KSR1 is essential for v-Ha-ras-mediated skin tumor formation in mice but not for MT-driven mammary tumor genesis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target in Ras/MAPK signaling.

This research reported that a newly developed adhesive wound dressing (SIS/PAA/LAP) demonstrated higher tissue adhesion and burst strength compared to conventional products, and improved tissue repair outcomes in animal models, suggesting potential for enhanced wound healing applications.

In this study, ultradeformable liposomes containing Tween 20 or terpenes increased phospholipid bilayer fluidity and enhanced skin penetration of sodium fluorescein, with terpenes improving hair follicle penetration.
