This study suggests that patients with STSD show a different pattern in androgen activation compared to healthy controls, potentially due to increased 5α-reductase activity and absent prepubertal serum DHEA surge.

This series of eight North American patients with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp suggests that factors like immunosenescence and ultraviolet damage may contribute to the condition's development.

This case report discusses the diagnostic challenges and management options for three siblings with 46, XY DSD due to type 2 5-α reductase deficiency, highlighting the genetic basis and impact on their quality of life.

This study reports that systemic lupus erythematosus patients with Evans syndrome often exhibited photosensitivity, hypocomplementemia, and elevated serum IgG, while lupus nephritis was less common, suggesting distinct clinical features.

Adalimumab significantly improves quality of life for patients with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa.

This study suggests that distinct alopecia scoring systems measure percent hair loss as a common underlying feature, with strong correlations observed between different types of hair loss assessments.

This review discusses major dermatologic conditions occurring in the early post-hematopoietic stem cell transplant period and reports no new clinical results; it underscores dermatologists' role in recognizing critical complications.

This article reviews differential diagnosis approaches for 46,XY DSD, proposing a diagnostic algorithm focused on biochemical and genetic data, without presenting new clinical results.

This study concluded that dermoscopy enhances the diagnostic capability for cicatricial alopecia beyond clinical inspection and identified novel dermoscopic features such as blue-grey dots.

In this case report, erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in a 49-year-old man showed improvement with daily application of 0.1% mometasone furoate cream.

This study observed that moderate to severe atopic dermatitis patients showed a higher prevalence of keratoconus compared to the general population, with 6.7% having manifest KC and 20% subclinical KC, highlighting the need for increased awareness among dermatologists.

This study found no significant difference in effectiveness between 0.05% desonide cream and 1.0% hydrocortisone cream for treating seborrheic dermatitis over 8 weeks, with neither causing skin atrophy.

This study classified scars in discoid lupus erythematosus patients into six types based on anatomical location and morphology, suggesting early identification might influence more aggressive treatment strategies.

This review discusses the potential of traditional Chinese medicine to relieve clinical symptoms in cases of CCS and emphasizes the need for further large-scale, long-term studies to verify these effects.

In this study, echocardiographic measures of cardiac function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome were found to be similar to those of healthy women.

This study investigated the histopathology of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome, identifying specific skin and hair abnormalities associated with PKP1 gene mutations in two young female patients.

This case report highlights a 21-year-old woman with seizures, mental retardation, spastic diplegia, and ichthyosis consistent with Sjogren-Larsson syndrome, and emphasizes the importance of differential diagnosis when additional symptoms are present.

In this study, GERD symptoms were found to be significantly related to acid exposure time and the intensity of excessive daytime sleepiness, which depends on circulating ghrelin levels.

In this study, Wang et al. (2022) found that in patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus, chronic lesions contained more senescent progenitor cells, marked by p16 and p21, than subacute lesions, suggesting a link between disease chronicity and cellular senescence.

In this study, 86% of pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2 received timely thromboprophylaxis based on their sepsis-induced coagulopathy scores, with most scoring between one and two.

This study reports that transplantation of an ESCs-collagen-chitin biomimetic membrane leads to successful in situ skin regeneration, including hair follicle cell proliferation and formation of dermatoglyphs, in nude mice with full-thickness skin defects.

This study translated and culturally adapted the Skindex-16 questionnaire into Arabic, finding it to be a reliable and valid measure of quality-of-life impacts from skin diseases in Saudi patients.

Human epidermal stem cells divide faster than previously thought.

This study reports a novel diagnostic method for latent circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorder using circadian gene oscillations from hair follicle cells to improve sleep disorder differentiation and potential therapeutic intervention.

In this study, the researchers found that the choice of diagnostic criteria significantly affects the rate of PCOS diagnosis in adolescents.

This study found that Ecklonia cava extract increased skin hydration and decreased redness, suggesting potential benefits for protecting and repairing scalp skin from pollutant-induced damage.

In this study, researchers modified an acellular scaffold with different concentrations of eggshell membrane protein, finding that a 5% concentration effectively enhanced tissue regeneration in mice with excisional wounds, achieving complete healing within 14 days without causing immunogenicity or inflammation.

In this study, a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome complicated by severe sepsis and disseminated intravascular coagulation was successfully treated using combined therapies, including recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin, despite the absence of a standard treatment regimen for CCS.

The researchers reported that the facial Psoriasis Log-based Area and Severity Index (fPLASI) more reliably and sensitively captured clinical improvement in facial psoriasis than the existing facial Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (fPASI).
