This article presents a discussion on alopecia areata in infants and concludes that the condition's occurrence in this age group is not as rare as previously thought; it offers no new data.

In this study, mutations in the CDH3 gene were identified as the cause of hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy, and the researchers observed substantial phenotypic variability among affected individuals.

This case report describes the first documented instance of epidermal nevus syndrome caused by a postzygotic KRAS G12C mutation in a three-year-old Japanese girl.

This study found that dermal papillae in alopecia areata, including clinically normal follicles, exhibited ultrastructural abnormalities that suggest an early pathological role in the disease's development.

In this case report, a 12-year-old girl was diagnosed with alopecia as part of the rare ALX4-related frontonasal dysplasia sequence, highlighting the condition's uniqueness in pediatric dermatology.

This case report details an extremely low-birth-weight preterm neonate presenting with unique dermatologic symptoms, leading to a diagnosis of neonatal inflammatory skin and bowel disease due to a novel homozygous EGFR gene mutation, highlighting the importance of genetic testing in ambiguous cases.

Ets2 gene is crucial for placental development in mice.

This case report identified two new SLC39A4 mutations in twin patients with acrodermatitis enteropathica, suggesting that different mutations in this gene may lead to varying clinical manifestations of the disorder.

This case report identifies a new type of hair matrix tumor called "rippled pattern trichomatricoma," distinguished by its unique cell arrangement and differentiation features.

This review discusses the range of diseases caused by mutations in keratin intermediate filament genes and presents no new clinical findings; the authors note the diverse phenotypes within this molecular category.

In this study, a novel E583V missense mutation in the hairless gene was identified in an Italian family with atrichia with papular lesions, reinforcing the significance of zinc-finger and LXXLL domains in this condition.

This study reported that genetic testing is crucial for accurately diagnosing hypotrichosis, especially in cases with subtle symptoms or coexisting severe atopic dermatitis, as demonstrated in a young girl with a DSG4 gene mutation.

This case report describes the occurrence of eruptive vellus hair cysts in twin patients, adding to the literature on this dermatological condition.

This study presented two brothers with hereditary acrodermatitis enteropathica who had normal zinc serum levels and experienced skin and hair lesions, but no dental disorders.
