This study discusses zinc's vital role in skin cell growth and how its deficiency can lead to acrodermatitis enteropathica, marked by symptoms like alopecia and dermatitis. It notes that similar symptoms appear in people with certain metabolic conditions, referred to as acrodermatitis dysmetabolica.

This case report describes a 16-month-old girl with atypical acrodermatitis enteropathica who showed marked improvement after zinc supplementation despite normal serum zinc levels.

This case report found that a child with acrodermatitis enteropathica showed significant improvement in symptoms after continuous zinc supplementation and identified two SLC39A4 mutations through genetic sequencing.

This case report describes a 3-month-old infant with acquired acrodermatitis enteropathica who was successfully treated with zinc supplementation over 3 weeks.

This case study reports that zinc supplementation significantly improved the symptoms of Acrodermatitis Enteropathica in a 12-year-old boy, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment compliance.

This case report describes a 5-year-old boy with acquired acrodermatitis enteropathica and normal serum zinc levels, improving clinically after zinc supplementation.

This report reviews the clinical presentation and genetic aspects of a case of acrodermatitis enteropathica in a one-year-old child but provides no new clinical findings.

This case report describes a 9-month-old boy with zinc deficiency-related symptoms, including hair loss and diarrhea, ultimately diagnosed as acrodermatitis enteropathica and improved with zinc therapy.

This study identified rare nucleotide substitutions in the SLC39A4 gene in children with acrodermatitis enteropathica, suggesting a genetic component to the disease's etiology.

This case report highlights that inherited zinc deficiency can persist into adulthood and emphasizes the importance of selecting optimal chelating agents to improve oral zinc bioavailability.

In this animal study, zinc deficiency in mice was linked to disrupted hair cycles and impaired hair regrowth, which were reversed by zinc supplementation.

This case study describes a 34-year-old woman with low serum zinc levels, skin lesions, and hair loss, potentially linked to excessive alcohol consumption.

This report presents a case of acrodermatitis enteropathica in a 22-year-old female, highlighting the absence of underlying comorbid conditions.

In this case report, an 11-year-old girl with acrodermatitis enteropathica experienced a complete resolution of symptoms following oral zinc therapy, highlighting its effectiveness in managing this condition.

This case study reported normal hair structure under polarized light microscopy in a 70-year-old man with zinc deficiency, contrasting with previous findings in acrodermatitis enteropathica.

This study found that biallelic mutations in the TTC7A gene affect lymphocyte and gut epithelial cell function, thereby contributing to the development of inflammatory bowel disease in patients.

This case report demonstrates a strong association between protein-losing enteropathy and systemic lupus erythematosus, with symptoms and conditions improving with prednisolone treatment.

This case report details a 38-year-old woman in Sri Lanka diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus-associated protein-losing enteropathy, identified through hypoalbuminemia and EULAR criteria in a resource-limited setting.

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 case report illustrates that Systemic Lupus Erythematosus can lead to severe malabsorption, weight loss, and small bowel inflammation, requiring recognition for effective treatment and improved outcomes.

This study observed that women post-bariatric surgery may be at increased risk for dermatological signs of malnutrition during subsequent pregnancies, highlighting the need for dermatologists to recognize these early symptoms.

This article reviews Cronkhite-Canada syndrome as a distinct condition from Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and familial polyposis, with cases showing gastrointestinal polyposis, skin, hair, nail abnormalities, and hypoproteinemia.

This clinical case highlights the importance of early diagnosis of celiac disease, illustrating how recognition of symptoms and risk factors can prevent delayed treatment.

This study found that nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal abnormalities are uncommon in children with ichthyosis and growth failure, suggesting chronic hypovolemia may be more prevalent in this group.

This article reviews the connection between malabsorption syndrome and skin diseases, reporting common skin complications and noting their improvement with malabsorption treatment; it offers no new clinical results.

In this study, a syndrome of zinc deficiency was observed in adults receiving intravenous feeding, with zinc supplementation improving symptoms except for delayed hair regrowth.

This case report associates severe zinc deficiency with long-term total parenteral nutrition, suggesting the need for trace element supplementation in such nutritional management.

This review discusses two genetic disorders affecting biotin metabolism, each resulting in distinctive skin and hair manifestations, and outlines the associated serious metabolic complications.

This study reports two cases of acquired zinc deficiency presenting with skin symptoms such as hair loss and acrodermatitis, suggesting these manifestations may help in diagnosing zinc deficiency in humans.

This case study reports that an infant with maple syrup urine disease developed acrodermatitis dysmetabolica due to low isoleucine levels, and increasing the isoleucine dose improved the condition.
