This article discusses the characteristics, clinical presentation, and diagnosis of calcified epidermal cysts but reports no new clinical results.

This case series highlighted three pediatric patients with congenital nail anomalies, revealing underlying developmental or genetic issues such as symbrachydactyly and potential Adams–Oliver syndrome, underscoring the critical role of dermatologists in early detection and diagnosis of these conditions.

This study identified dose levels of selenium that can produce toxicity, noting that doses as low as 2-3 µg Se/kg bw/day can lead to adverse effects, and a human mortality study linked 300 µg/day consumption to increased death risk.

This review discusses the molecular biology, diagnosis, and pathology of epidermolysis bullosa in animals and reports no new clinical findings.

Focal palmoplantar callosities may help diagnose non-Herlitz junctional epidermolysis bullosa.

This study found that pretreating hair follicles with epidermal growth factor (EGF) may protect against chemotherapy-induced hair damage by inducing a catagen-like stage, thus supporting primary hair recovery.

In this study, a rare case of a trichilemmal cyst in a 6-year-old's upper eyelid was observed; it was identified through histopathological examination after excision, highlighting the importance of considering trichilemmal cysts in atypical pediatric eyelid swellings.

This review examines the psychological effects of chronic hair diseases, noting significant impacts on self-confidence and quality of life, particularly in women with androgenetic alopecia and patients undergoing chemotherapy.

This study in Mexican patients with alopecia areata found that body hair involvement was linked to disease progression, while treatment adherence was associated with both remission and progression.

This study found that severe forms of alopecia areata may be associated with poor treatment response, particularly in cases with extensive hair loss, juvenile onset, or nail changes.

This case report suggests that premature aging may contribute to weakened immunity and the development of autoimmune diseases.

This case report describes a 60-year-old male with vitamin A toxicity leading to severe liver disease and symptoms that resolved following liver transplantation, suggesting transplantation as a treatment option for noncirrhotic portal hypertension when symptoms do not improve after stopping vitamin A.

A new mutation, Glu402Lys, in hair keratin is linked to variable symptoms of monilethrix.

This study found that calbindin-D9k knockout mice on a maternal vitamin D-deficient and low-calcium diet developed transient alopecia, but a high-vitamin D and calcium diet in mothers reduced this effect.

This case report details a 21-year-old woman with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis, presenting with generalized reticulate hyperpigmentation, diffuse noncicatricial alopecia, onychodystrophy, palmoplantar keratoderma, and poorly developed dermatoglyphics.

This review summarizes trichoscopic features for diagnosing common hair loss disorders and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing their diagnostic utility in conditions like alopecia areata and trichotillomania.

This case report detailed a 71-year-old male with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome and associated membranous nephropathy, who showed a significant improvement in skin and gastrointestinal symptoms, and remission of nephropathy, after treatment with rituximab, cyclosporine, and azathioprine.

In this case report, a novel missense mutation c.1360G>C (p.Ala454Pro) in the MBTPS2 gene was identified in a boy with typical IFAP syndrome and severe atopic features, although no phenotype/genotype correlation was established.

This study found that Middle Eastern patients with epidermolysis bullosa show specific correlations between their genetic variants and clinical features, which may aid in diagnosis and genetic counseling.

This case report documents the first confirmed mutation-proved instance of Clouston syndrome in a large Chinese-Malaysian family, linked to the c.263C>T (A88V) mutation in the GJB6 gene, with no available treatment but highlighting the importance of genetic counseling.

This review found a significant association between smoking and androgenetic alopecia, but notes a lack of studies on whether quitting smoking can improve hair loss.

This study found that umbilical cord-derived CD146+ MSCs showed a stronger ability to improve ovarian function and modulate immune responses in a mouse model of premature ovarian failure compared to CD146- MSCs, though both subpopulations effectively repaired reproductive ability.

This book provides a comprehensive guide to cosmetic dermatology, emphasizing practical applications of skin care in cosmetic and surgical practices, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This case report presents a patient with woolly hair and associated symptoms, including keratosis pilaris, nail dystrophy, increased interdental spaces, and recurrent bullous impetigo, observing a combination not previously reported.

This review discusses the role of RDH12 in vision, its structural and functional aspects, and related disease mechanisms, but reports no new clinical results; it aims to support therapy development for inherited retinal dystrophies.

This study found that Aire‒/‒ mice spontaneously developed persistent AA-like lesions, highlighting a potential role for AIRE in hair follicle biology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata.

This study observed that multimodal therapy, including platelet-rich plasma, minoxidil, finasteride, and lifestyle modifications, significantly improved hair diameter and density among individuals with androgenetic alopecia and other noncicatricial hair loss conditions, especially in less advanced cases, after at least 8 sessions.

This review analyzed the complex interactions within the skin microenvironment that influence hair follicle development and regeneration, exploring its role in hair-related disease treatment and highlighting research challenges and future directions.
