This study found that in a mouse model, alopecia areata was associated with changes in heart structure, biochemistry, and gene expression linked to cardiac hypertrophy after ACTH exposure.

In this study, researchers observed that individuals with alopecia areata exhibited significant changes in scalp microbiota diversity and composition, which were linked to disease severity and inflammation markers, though it remains unclear if these microbial shifts are a cause or a result of hair loss.

This review discusses the cutaneous side effects of chemotherapy, noting that they frequently involve changes to skin, hair, and nails, and reports no new results.

This study found that the Foxn1(-/-) nude phenotype significantly influences epithelial progeny in skin, with notable changes in stem cell niches not achievable in other models.

This case report describes a 19-year-old female with systemic lupus erythematosus who exhibited eyelash trichomegaly, a rare disorder involving changes in eyelash characteristics, alongside diffuse alopecia.

This article proposes five different mechanisms for telogen effluvium, supported by clinical findings, based on changes in different phases of the hair cycle.

This case report describes a 40-year-old woman with Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome whose symptoms, including gastrointestinal issues and skin changes, improved significantly with corticosteroids, co-infection treatment, and nutritional counseling.

This research successfully established a novel mouse model for anagen effluvium using BrdU treatment, which induced hair loss and pathological changes mimicking human symptoms.

This case study details the progression of a woman's skin conditions, initially diagnosed as acanthosis nigricans and later as mycosis fungoides, with changes in lesion characteristics and distribution over time.

This study found that premature hair loss due to stress does not occur in NK-1 receptor knockout or mast cell deficient mice, suggesting a key role for neurokinin substance P and mast cell interaction in stress-related hair follicle changes.

In this randomized double-blind study, 160 adults with alopecia areata showed significant improvements in hair loss severity after using a bioactive peptide cosmetic product that mimics platelet-rich plasma, while the placebo group showed no significant change, underlining the treatment's potential effectiveness.

In this report, two women treated with alitretinoin experienced persistent curling of their previously straight hair, suggesting a likely causal link between the medication and hair texture changes.

In this study, mice exposed to prolonged space conditions demonstrated skin atrophy, altered hair follicle cycles, and significant changes in the gene expression associated with skin muscle health.

In this lecture, Dr. Anna Gorecka and Dr. Ewa Bieber discuss how social media has influenced the rise of cosmetic surgery and patient expectations, as well as its connection to self-esteem and body dysmorphic disorder. Results are not reported in this summary.

This study highlights that restrictive abortion laws, financial barriers, and lack of sexual education are major issues in countries like Poland, the USA, and Italy, suggesting needed changes such as improved sex education, access to contraception, and international networks for legal abortion.

Lichen Planus is a less common condition affecting skin and mucous membranes, with various types and associated risk factors, challenging to diagnose, significantly impacts life quality, and may have a risk of cancerous changes in oral lesions.

This article reviews the impact of nutritional deficiencies on hair health, detailing how they can cause structural abnormalities, pigmentation changes, or hair loss; it presents no new clinical findings.

This study presents the first reported case of woolly hair nevus appearing during adolescence, with significant improvement observed 5 years later and structural changes in the hair documented.

This review discusses severe insulin resistance syndromes, highlighting their diagnostic challenges, potential novel therapies like leptin replacement, and suggests metformin and lifestyle changes in its absence; no new clinical results are reported.

This review discusses the clinical presentations of alopecia areata, introduces guidelines for treatment studies, and explores potential changes in cutaneous innervation, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that the OCIAD2 and DCN genes in Liaoning cashmere goats have opposite effects on hair growth by interacting with the TGF-β signaling pathway, influencing follicle morphogenesis and periodic changes.

In this case report, researchers documented a 19-year-old male professional athlete with acquired trichorrhexis nodosa, noting environmental factors like chlorine exposure during swimming may have contributed to his condition, which improved after advice on hair care changes.

This review explores how radiation-induced hair graying can be used as a model to study the mechanisms behind hair graying, focusing on cellular senescence and potential therapeutic targets to address age-related changes. Results are not provided.

This study observed a high prevalence of severe markers among pediatric alopecia areata patients, identifying AA subtotalis as more frequent, with nail changes and various hair markers suggesting progression to severe forms.

New mutations in hair keratin genes can change hair structure and cause monilethrix, with nail issues more common in certain gene mutations.

Genetic changes in specific proteins contribute to hair loss in some women of African descent.

This study identifies various nail changes in alopecia areata, which can affect quality of life, and suggests that while spontaneous improvement is possible, further research is needed to refine treatment strategies.

CD44 variant changes start alopecia areata, but don't maintain it.

Fibroblasts from healthy donors can prevent changes seen in recessive epidermolysis bullosa simplex.
