This case report describes the first known instance of fixed drug eruption linked to finasteride, confirmed through an oral challenge test that reproduced symptoms at the same skin site.

This case report describes a 36-year-old Senegalese man with tinea capitis caused by Trichophyton soudanense, a dermatophyte more frequently encountered in Europe due to immigration.

This study observed that multinucleate giant cells were present in 31% of biopsy specimens from patients with male pattern alopecia but not in other alopecia types, suggesting a potential histologic marker for androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that silk fibroin/sodium alginate scaffolds seeded with dermal papilla cells may accelerate skin repair and hair follicle regeneration in a rat model.

This letter comments on a randomized controlled trial by Shapiro et al that found no significant benefits of platelet-rich plasma compared to placebo for male androgenetic alopecia, highlighting issues with PRP protocol variations.

This study found that a high percentage of HIV-positive patients experienced mucocutaneous lesions, with conditions like oral candidiasis and furuncle being significantly associated with lower CD4 cell counts.

This study found that Bazhengsan significantly reduced inflammation and hyperplasia in male rats with nonbacterial prostatitis, indicating potential as a treatment for chronic prostatitis.

This study suggests that Eclipta prostrata may promote hair growth in mice and human dermal papilla cells through regulating FGF-7 and mTOR signaling.

This study found that 6-Gingerol significantly suppressed hair growth in mice by reducing hair follicle number and length, potentially through increased expression of MMP2 and MMP9.

This study found that melatonin treatment increased epidermal thickness, subcutaneous fat, and dermal-related factors in postmenopausal rats, suggesting benefits for skin structure after menopause.

This study found that tianeptine may suppress the transition to catagen, promoting hair growth in a stress-induced alopecia areata mouse model.

In this case report, a 9-year-old horse was diagnosed with alopecia areata contributing to Malassezia dermatitis, involving lymphocyte infiltration and symptoms consistent with yeast presence.

This paper reports a single case of lichenoid cutaneous sarcoidosis that was unresponsive to standard treatments but showed marked improvement with the administration of oral tranilast.

A woman with a rare autoimmune disorder had a blister on her eye and unique immune reaction, which was effectively treated with medication.

This report describes a woman with borderline lepromatous leprosy who developed a serious skin reaction to dapsone; she recovered quickly after stopping dapsone and receiving corticosteroids.

In this study, 150 kHz electromagnetic radiation reduced the number and size of follicular cysts in a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome without causing significant morphological damage to developing follicles.

This study reports that mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium promoted dermal cell migration and proliferation, enhancing wound healing but not direct hair growth, in vitro and in adult mouse models.

Dermal fillers can cause hair loss, so dermatologists should be aware.

This study found that scalp hair follicles had higher expression of cytokeratin 15 and distinct hair layers compared to other body regions, highlighting differences in hair follicle characteristics.

In this study, NIH hairless mice showed increased susceptibility to Listeria monocytogenes infection compared to NIH mice, potentially due to differences in gut microbiota and monocyte levels.

This study found that mutations in the hairless gene disrupt normal hair follicle development by impairing Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting hair keratinocyte differentiation in both mice and humans.

In this study, researchers found that the thickness of various skin layers in Bos indicus cattle varied significantly by body region, with the neck and shoulder being thickest, and that male skin might be more suited for quality leather production compared to female skin.

A woman with a drug allergy to anakinra was successfully desensitized, allowing her to continue treatment without allergic reactions.

This article discusses the presence of dirty dots as a normal trichoscopic finding in children, noting they are not observed in adults or other age groups, and reports no new results.

Stopping methotrexate might reverse lymphoma-like conditions in some patients.

A 7-year-old dog with a rare autoimmune disease was euthanized due to severe anemia and poor prognosis.

This study found that the distribution of mast cell prostaglandin d-synthase in the scalp spatially aligns with the pattern of androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a programmed vulnerability to hair loss.

This article reports a case of pseudofolliculitis barbae potentially induced by the use of oral minoxidil.

This study observed that persistent urticaria is a rare side effect of laser epilation, potentially linked to a hypersensitivity reaction in patients with allergies.

This study found that an imbalance of selenium in a C57BL/6 mouse model led to hair loss with color change and was linked with changes in hair follicle apoptosis markers.
