Botulinum toxin-A injections in the scalp can reduce hair loss and promote new hair growth in men with certain types of baldness.

This study presents two cases correlating the clinical appearance of adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy with optical coherence tomography findings, describing the location of the yellow vitelliform material.

This study found that rabbits fed a diet deficient in Vitamin E developed severe muscular dystrophy that was not fully prevented by adding selenium, Vitamin E supplements, or natural feedstuffs, indicating other nutritional deficiencies.

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.

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 AIRE, a usually nuclear protein, is expressed in the cytoplasm of human epidermal and follicular keratinocytes and associates with the intermediate filament protein cytokeratin 17, potentially impacting ectodermal abnormalities in APECED syndrome.

This study suggests that NKG2D+ Vδ1 T cells may contribute to hair follicle pathology in alopecia areata by recognizing stressed keratinocytes and inducing immune privilege collapse.

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.

Treatment improved some symptoms but not all.

This study defines classification criteria for hair follicle dystrophy using a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, providing tools for standardized hair damage assessment.

This article presents an update on a family with Coats' plus disorder, documenting additional symptoms and two new similar cases, and reviews literature suggesting a link to dyskeratosis congenita for potential molecular insights.

This study found that doxorubicin disrupts hair-follicle-associated blood vessels, which may contribute to hair follicle dystrophy and alopecia in mice, but hair-follicle stem cells remained unaffected.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This study introduces a mouse model of cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia, which effectively replicates human chemotherapy-induced hair loss and can be pharmacologically manipulated to study hair regrowth patterns.

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

This article reviews the diagnosis and management of inherited epidermolysis bullosa and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the importance of clinical and histopathological evaluation.

This review presents an objective analysis of female androgenetic alopecia, discussing clinical and dermoscopic examination approaches but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, PTH-CBD effectively prevented and partially reversed chemotherapy-induced alopecia in mice, with pretreatment offering a better cosmetic outcome compared to therapeutic administration after hair loss onset.

This discussion highlights that alopecia areata incognita is challenging to diagnose and treat, with systemic corticosteroids potentially leading to remission when local treatments fail.

This article presents a theory on the causes and development of telogen effluvium and reports no new clinical findings.

This article presents a dissenting opinion, arguing that the case described by Dr. Molina et al. was diffuse alopecia areata, not acute alopecia areata as claimed, emphasizing the importance of distinct clinical differences.

This study reports that the near-naked hairless mutation in mice is not an allele of the Hairless gene but may involve a mutation in a linked gene or a regulatory mutation.

In this study, fractional CO2 laser treatment for alopecia areata was found to significantly increase terminal hair and patient satisfaction compared to betamethasone valerate cream alone, highlighting its efficacy and safety both as a standalone and combined treatment.

This comment discusses the use of 'follicular Swiss cheese' as a diagnostic feature for alopecia areata and does not report new clinical findings.

In this study, patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and generalized non-scarring alopecia exhibited hair loss similar to telogen effluvium, with significant changes observed in the cuticle of telogen hairs.

In this investigation, acute alopecia was linked to selenium-contaminated wheat in rural Maharashtra, India, following reports of sudden hair loss in 18 villages, with evaluations conducted in Machindrakhed and Bhondgaon.

In this case report, a newborn with Conradi-Hünermann-Happle syndrome was diagnosed through early skin biopsy, which revealed unique histopathological features, including dystrophic calcifications, confirming a pathogenic variant in the EBP gene.

This study found that the SBN system effectively evaluates and describes the severity and clinical variant of alopecia areata using a standardized scale, aiding in patient management and disease course prediction.
