This study reports a novel LC/MS method that separates and analyzes all known ceramide subclasses in human stratum corneum, identifying a new subclass, CER [EOdS], with minimal sample preparation.

This study found that variations in Kv1 channel gene expression in the electric organ of Sternopygus correlate with sex differences and individual variations in their electric communication signals.

A gene mutation in mice causes increased mast cells and disorganized hair follicles in their skin.

This article discusses vaccination coverage for BCG, Polio, and Hepatitis B in Juiz de Fora using SUS data and reports no new results; the authors aim to hypothesize reasons for coverage variation.

In this study, trichoscopic features aiding differential diagnosis of alopecia in Korean patients were found to be similar to those in Caucasians, but pigment pattern frequencies differed due to racial characteristics.

This study suggests that while low-cost videomicroscopes can correctly identify hair shaft alterations, they may be unreliable for detailed follicular and perifollicular trichoscopic examination compared to standard videodermatoscopes.

This study describes three cases of dermatomyositis-like disease in mongrel dogs with compatible clinical findings and outcomes following slightly different treatment protocols.

This article discusses the diagnostic challenges between certain neonatal scalp conditions and highlights the potential of line-field confocal optical coherence tomography to provide detailed, non-invasive skin examination, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that overexpression of the transcription factor NFIC may enhance the proliferation and differentiation of stem cells from the apical papilla, suggesting its potential role in dentin/root regeneration.

In a depilated mouse model, this study found that blocking CXCL4 activity with an anti-CXCL4 monoclonal antibody promoted hair growth by inducing an earlier anagen phase, delaying hair follicle regression, and altering expression of genes and proteins related to hair growth and cell proliferation.

This review discusses trichoscopy as a noninvasive, effective technique for diagnosing various hair loss conditions and monitoring treatment, highlighting its potential to reduce scalp biopsy necessity.

This article reviews the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing common hair and scalp diseases and introduces a new classification for specific skin surface abnormalities, without presenting new clinical results.

In this study, low-dose oral minoxidil for hair loss was associated with infrequent systemic adverse effects, and only 1.7% of patients discontinued treatment due to these effects.

Dermatoscopy helps diagnose hair and scalp disorders in people with Afro-textured hair, but more research is needed for better understanding and treatment.

This study found that combining oral isotretinoin with topical treatments was more effective than topical treatments alone for improving frontal fibrosing alopecia symptoms, despite some side effects.

This study found that Follicular Maps, derived from trichoscopic images, remained consistent over time and unaffected by hair cycling or noncicatricial alopecia, offering a precise tool for diagnosing and monitoring hair and scalp conditions.

In this study, Spectral DNC-N® significantly reduced hair shedding and increased hair mass and density in women with early female pattern hair loss, with effects evident after 3 months and sustained through 6 months.

This review discusses the clinical applications and adverse effects of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia and androgenic alopecia, noting controversies around their implications for other diseases, without reporting new results.

This study reviews methods to ensure the reliability of machine learning models in medical imaging, focusing on bias detection, data drift assessment, and accuracy estimation without ground truth labels to enhance integration into clinical settings.

In this study, low-dose oral minoxidil was found to have a favorable safety profile for treating alopecia, with mostly mild side effects, in both general and hypertensive populations.

The researchers reported creating a Human Hair Atlas that maps over 1200 molecular species in hair, revealing up to 50% variation in metabolite and lipid levels along the hair's length, and identified 122 exposome-related compounds from personal care products.

This study found that patients with chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus had elevated serum levels of interleukin 31, suggesting a possible role of this cytokine in the condition.

Understanding hair structure and growth is key for diagnosing hair diseases accurately.

This study found that videodermoscopy showed higher sensitivity and specificity than clinical examination for diagnosing female pattern hair loss and may serve as an alternative to scalp biopsy in the future.

This review discusses the advancements and ongoing controversies in hair transplantation techniques, reporting no new clinical results, but highlights the evolving methods for improving natural appearance in male-pattern baldness and female alopecia.

This study constructed a single-cell atlas of hair follicle cells from yaks and taurine cattle, revealing that differences in WNT signaling within dermal papilla cells may be key to the yak's adaptation to cold environments on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding the Eda pathway's role in developmental biology, and highlights ongoing trials and areas for further research, including Eda's potential involvement in cell processes and disease.

This study found pathogenic mutations in genes EDA, EDA1R, and EDARADD in 101 out of 124 hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia patients, revealing 23 novel mutations and indicating genetic variability.

This study reports a rare cluster of four patients with ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting its typical dental and dermatological manifestations and the necessity of multidisciplinary management.

This study found that using a PEG-400/oleic acid mixture as an optical clearing agent enhanced the detection depth of particles in skin without causing dehydration, based on tests in rats and further testing in vivo.
