This article discusses the potential of trichoscopy in diagnosing and treating dissecting cellulitis of the scalp and emphasizes the need for early diagnosis to prevent progression but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that increased amounts of less stable disulfide conformers in hair shafts may be linked to the brittleness observed in trichothiodystrophy.

In this study, trypsin digestion was found to be a faster and more efficient method than the explant technique for extracting bulge-derived keratinocytes from adult scalp biopsies.

Dermoscopy helped diagnose discoid lupus erythematosus in two patients without needing skin biopsies.

This study found that the observed isotropic ss-ECD spectrum of finasteride is influenced by the anisotropy of locally oriented crystals, offering new possibilities for analyzing solid-state chiral materials.

This study reports the first familial case of alopecia linked to a novel homozygous variant in the DSP gene, which did not coincide with heart abnormalities despite prior associations.

In this prospective observational study of 96 dermatomyositis patients, 47 showed scalp involvement, with significant symptoms like scalp inflammation, itching, and hair loss linked to myositis-specific antibodies. The study highlighted unique dermatopathological features in the scalp and emphasized the considerable morbidity caused by scalp dermatomyositis.

This study investigated the effects of HDDPiW-jSB solution on chemotherapy-induced alopecia in a rat model and found that the solution improved hair follicle health markers and reduced cell apoptosis, especially when applied twice weekly, while appearing safe for skin application.

This study formulated and characterized a dutasteride-loaded nanocrystalline suspension for long-acting parenteral delivery, finding that it provided sustained drug release in rats with a significant reduction in local inflammation over 28 days following intramuscular injection.

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.

In this study, Wang et al. (2022) found that in patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus, chronic lesions contained more senescent progenitor cells, marked by p16 and p21, than subacute lesions, suggesting a link between disease chronicity and cellular senescence.

This study found that the Transdermal Delivery System efficiently delivers testosterone systemically and showed bioequivalent hormone concentrations to a known topical gel in healthy males.

The study demonstrated that both DKK2 and SOSTDC1 are necessary for normal timing of the first catagen phase in mice hair growth cycles.

In this study, low concentrations of DMSO were found to decrease androgen receptor expression and inhibit the migration of prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential as an anticancer therapy.

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.

In a study involving adults with mild to moderate dandruff, researchers observed that post-hair wash interventions significantly reduced dandruff as measured by three assessment methods, showing substantial reliability and correlation, which supports their use in clinical settings for evaluating scalp dandruff treatments.

This quiz article provides a series of dermatological diagnosis questions based on a Journal of Investigative Dermatology article and includes explanations but reports no original research findings.

This review discusses the etiology, pathophysiology, trichoscopic characteristics, differential diagnoses, and treatment options for scalp seborrheic dermatitis, without providing new clinical findings.

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 article discusses the teratogenic risks of skin condition treatments for individuals with DSD and notes that testosterone replacement, often used in this population, may cause acne.

This systematic review indicates that patients with Down syndrome have an increased prevalence of various dermatologic disorders, especially infectious, inflammatory, autoimmune, and connective tissue conditions.

This study utilized the DNP–SANS technique on human hair for the first time and found significant changes in the SANS profile dependent on polarization conditions, providing insights into the structural composition and dynamic properties of keratin and its associated proteins.

This study found that a peptide treatment using Protein disulphide isomerase improved the mechanical and thermal properties of over-bleached hair by promoting deeper peptide penetration and attachment.

The researchers reported that sulfated chitosan-containing sponges can modulate macrophage activity in diabetic wounds, reducing inflammation and promoting angiogenesis and tissue regeneration, which may enhance wound healing outcomes.

In this study, Diabliss Hair Water was found to improve hair growth rate, density, and quality while reducing hair fall in healthy adults experiencing hair thinning concerns.

This case report highlights the rare overlap of DRESS and Stevens-Johnson syndrome following antituberculosis treatment, emphasizing the critical importance of timely diagnosis and intervention to manage severe symptoms and prevent organ damage.

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.

Sulfasalazine can cause severe allergic reactions leading to long-term autoimmune issues like hair loss and skin discoloration.

In this case report, a 22-year-old female was diagnosed with follicular Dowling-Degos disease based on clinical and histological findings, with symptoms including skin lesions confined to hair follicles. The report emphasizes the importance of differentiating this rare variant from similar conditions for proper management.

This study identified the dermal sheath as a key component of the hair follicle niche, essential for outer root sheath regression during the hair cycle, highlighting its importance in hair follicle support and regulation.
