This review discusses the challenges of diagnosing and managing somatization in dermatology patients, highlighting the need for comprehensive evaluation of unexplained dermatologic symptoms, and reports no new results.

This case report describes a young male with trachyonychia with associated hypertrophic cutaneous lichen planus, reticular oral lichen planus, and nail lichen planus. The diagnosis was aided by dermoscopy and histopathology, highlighting the importance of accurate diagnosis for effective treatment and prognosis.

This narrative review highlights that endurance, skill-oriented athletes, and physique-oriented competitors such as bodybuilders face accelerated degradation of fillers and botulinum neurotoxin due to elevated basal metabolic rates and other factors, and raised concerns about psychological conditions like body dysmorphic disorder in these populations.

This case report describes a 27-year-old male with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1, characterized by symptoms including fever, dysarthria, dysphagia, oral candidiasis, nail dystrophy, alopecia, hypoparathyroidism, and dilated cardiomyopathy. The study highlights unique bilateral symmetrical brain calcifications and underscores the syndrome’s diverse manifestations.

This report discusses a late-onset case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome that improved with prednisone treatment, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis to reduce life-threatening complications.

This article reviews clinical practice gaps in dermatology regarding the care of patients with hair disorders, including attitude, knowledge, and skill deficiencies, and reports no new results.

This study identified two novel mutations in the CDH3 gene causing HJMD in a Chinese patient, expanding the genetic and phenotypic understanding of the disorder.

This study in a nine-year-old boy from Lebanon identified a gene mutation (c.1066dup p.(Arg356Profs*16)) associated with a rare inborn error of immunity, characterized by craniosynostosis, jaundice, and several other symptoms, expanding the known genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of this condition.

This case study examined a 72-year-old woman with unique hair shaft constrictions consistent with monilethrix, despite features atypical for this condition, ultimately reaching a diagnosis that led to successful improvement using oral minoxidil and reduced hair trauma.

This study found that reducing HDAC1 activity in the skin of mice led to defects in hair follicle structure and pigmentation, highlighting HDAC's role in skin and hair maintenance.

This study observed that mTORC1 signaling is activated and crucial for hair follicle regeneration and hair growth in irradiated mice, facilitating recovery within 96 hours without significant hair loss.

This study identified a subpopulation of neural crest-derived progenitor cells in human corneal endothelial tissue from normal and Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy donors, which may have potential for future cell therapy development.

This study showed that in C3H/HeJ mice, focal follicular inflammation starts before overt hair loss, with inflammation severity possibly reaching a threshold causing hair follicle dystrophy prior to visible hair loss.

This study observed that young rat models, with naturally synchronized hair growth phases, developed total alopecia after chemotherapy and may serve as a better model for testing CIA protective treatments compared to adult rats.

This case report identifies a novel CDH3 gene mutation associated with hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy in a 13-year-old Turkish girl, highlighting implications for future genetic analysis and counseling.

This review discusses keratin disorders and potential RNA interference therapeutics, reporting no new clinical findings but highlighting the promise of siRNA for future treatments.

In this study, a methanol extract of Eclipta alba was found to have dose-dependent hair growth-promoting activity in C57BL6 mice.

This case report describes a 4-year-old girl with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, linked to mutations in the cadherin 3 gene affecting P-cadherin expression.

This study found that human hematopoietic mesenchymal stem cells increased the viability and migration of human outer root sheath cells in an in vitro alopecia areata model, involving Wnt/β-catenin and JAK/STAT pathways.

This meta-analysis reported no significant improvement in muscle strength or mobility with glucocorticoid treatment for progressive muscular dystrophy but observed an increase in adverse effects like acne and emotional irritability.

This research review found that climate change exacerbates skin conditions like photoaging, inflammatory dermatoses, and skin cancers by causing oxidative stress and inflammation, suggesting that dermatological practices should incorporate environmental and multicultural considerations to optimize patient outcomes in diverse populations.

This review discussed the cutaneous manifestations of APECED, highlighting chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, alopecia areata, and vitiligo, while emphasizing the importance of early detection and monitoring for accurate diagnosis and patient care in various populations.

In this study, follicular unit extraction grafting using a patient's own scalp follicles showed promise in healing chronic ulcers in a woman with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.

This study found that fibroblasts from Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy patients with certain genetic mutations overexpress markers of fibrosis, and gene correction techniques reduced fibrogenic molecule expression in cell models, suggesting potential therapeutic applications.

In this case report, a 42-year-old male diagnosed with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome presented symptoms like chronic diarrhea, significant weight loss, skin hyperpigmentation, alopecia, and nail dystrophy, with endoscopic findings revealing numerous gastrointestinal polyps.

This review compiles current research on the role of long non-coding RNAs in regulating muscle growth and regeneration processes, particularly their influence on Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and reports no new clinical results.

This research notes that biologics and small molecules are effective for treating nail psoriasis and alopecia areata, albeit with precautions for adverse events, but no clinical trials have been published for their use in treating nail lichen planus and atopic dermatitis.

This study found that when human hair follicles were grafted onto mice, they progressed through dystrophic stages and returned to normal growth, with stem cells aiding in recovery.

This article reviews the characteristics, causes, and types of porphyria cutanea tarda but presents no new findings, focusing instead on existing knowledge about the disorder.
