This study described the clinical and genetic features of two Iranian siblings with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets, identifying a specific VDR gene mutation contributing to their symptoms.

This study identified a novel nonsense mutation in the VDR gene in two patients with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets and alopecia, leading to resistance to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.

This case report describes a probable hypersensitivity reaction to a single intravenous dose of ondansetron, highlighting the need for cautious use, especially in outpatient settings.

This review discusses the complication of vitiligo in patients undergoing diphencyprone sensitization therapy for alopecia universalis and reports no new clinical findings.

This case report highlights that early recognition and management of underlying connective tissue diseases, such as lupus, are essential in young patients presenting with unexpected symptoms like blurry vision and stroke signs.

This case report describes the successful use of percutaneous and endovascular embolization with PHIL embolic agent to treat a rare scalp arteriovenous fistula following a hair transplant.

This study observed that videodermoscopic assessments of dermatomyositis patients revealed specific vascular and pigmentary features, suggesting it may be useful for preliminary diagnosis.

In this study, UVFD and sUVRD techniques revealed distinctive characteristics of GD lesions, suggesting that GD might be more common in younger individuals and females than previously thought, possibly due to underdiagnosis. Incorporating dermatoscopy in exams may help improve GD detection and management.

This study found that using autologous ultra-thin split-thickness skin grafts from the scalp with the DermaBlade tool led to rapid wound healing, minimal complications, and improved cosmetic outcomes for 90% of patients with lower extremity lesions, without causing scarring or alopecia.

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.

In this case report, a 35-year-old man developed avascular necrosis after receiving intradermal corticosteroid injections for alopecia areata, marking the first documented instance of this side effect from such treatment.

This study found changes in the PGI2 pathway, especially in gene and protein expression, in diabetic mice, but did not observe PGI2-dependent vasomotor dysfunction.

This abstract outlines a study evaluating dutasteride's effect on perioperative bleeding during transurethral resection of the prostate, but does not report any new clinical results.

This report describes an extremely rare case of arteriovenous fistula appearing after hair restoration surgery, observed in just one instance.

This abstract highlights that preliminary results from the REDUCE trial indicate dutasteride may lower prostate cancer incidence by 23% in older men compared to a placebo.

This case report describes a 66-year-old woman diagnosed with porphyria cutanea tarda, characterized by painless vesicular lesions on sun-exposed areas and associated with hemochromatosis, and managed effectively with phlebotomy.

This study found that individuals with Telogen Effluvium had significantly lower levels of vitamin D compared to healthy individuals, with a particularly negative correlation observed between disease duration and vitamin D levels in affected patients.

In this case report, a four-year-old girl was diagnosed with vitamin D-dependent rickets type II, manifesting as diffuse alopecia, frontal bossing, hypoplastic teeth, and skin-colored papules, due to a genetic mutation causing resistance to 1.25-dihydroxy vitamin D.

This article compares two rare genetic diseases, vitamin D-dependent rickets type 1 and type 2, focusing on their similar presentations of hypocalcemia and rickets in infancy, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that blood samples from donors on teratogenic drugs sometimes exceeded recommended concentration limits, suggesting a need for improved deferral policies.

This study found that thrombocytopenia is a common side effect of valproic acid, affecting up to 54% of elderly patients, but it is under-investigated despite significant therapeutic consequences.

This study found that treating children with hair defluvium using vitamin-D and calcium significantly improved symptoms, with a total effective rate of 93.3%.

This study reports that negative pressure wound therapy combined with PRP may effectively accelerate wound healing and reduce mortality in diabetic foot ulcers, with albumin and age identified as independent predictors of mortality risk.

In a meta-analysis of 210 hair tourniquet syndrome cases, this study reported that 44.2% involved the penis, 40.4% the toes, and 8.6% fingers, highlighting the condition's potential severity and underreporting, especially in infants and some adults with cognitive impairments.

This report presents a case of a 17-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and systemic vasculitis, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and timely referral for intensive treatment.

This case study described a girl with vitamin D-dependent rickets type 2A who developed long-standing tertiary hyperparathyroidism, yet this did not hinder the healing of her rickets or normalization of hypophosphatemia; high doses of intravenous calcium were pivotal for recovery.

In an outpatient cardiology center, this study found that introducing the AHA/ACC ABI screening protocol significantly increased the frequency of ABI ordering by 31.6% for symptomatic patients.

A specific gene mutation is linked to a hereditary form of dystonia that responds well to certain medications.

This study found that using hemocoagulase combined with platelet-rich plasma during total hip replacement surgery led to reduced perioperative blood loss and improved early joint range of motion in osteoarthritis patients.

This case report suggests a potential association between esomeprazole use and hepatic injury, highlighting a temporal relationship with liver enzyme elevation that resolved upon discontinuing the drug.
