This study reports that cutaneous manifestations such as herpes zoster, purpura, and livedo reticularis in COVID-19 patients can potentially indicate disease severity, aiding in the prediction of the illness's progression and guiding dermatological management during the pandemic.

This study conducted among medical students in Saudi Arabia found a 37.2% prevalence of premature hair graying and associated it with smoking, a keto diet, hair coloring, and family history, while suggesting that lifestyle changes may reduce its impact.

This study from S.C.B. Medical College explored the clinico-etiological and histopathological patterns of erythroderma, observing psoriasis as the most common cause, followed by idiopathic cases and atopic or drug-induced dermatitis, highlighting the need for careful management and awareness of alternative medicine use.

This study observed that smallholder cattle farmers in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia using leucaena as feed managed more cattle and focused more on fattening rather than breeding, but leucaena toxicity led to illnesses such as hair loss and, in a few cases, reproductive issues.

This study found that overexpression of PKCα in mouse epidermis increases expression of specific proinflammatory mediators and induces inflammation but does not significantly affect epidermal differentiation, proliferation, or tumor promotion with TPA.

This study highlights that anabolic steroid use is prevalent among bodybuilders in Sergipe, regardless of socioeconomic background, with many experiencing acute and chronic side effects.

This study found that 40 nm nanoparticles can effectively penetrate into hair follicles and epidermal Langerhans cells in human skin samples, potentially enabling efficient transcutaneous vaccine delivery.

This study identified a moderately high prevalence of PCOS and significant associations with factors like hyperprolactinemia and menstrual irregularities in the sample, emphasizing the importance of awareness and early diagnosis to potentially reduce PCOS burden.

This study describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

This study reported that psoriasis patients with hypertension, androgenetic alopecia, or those using acitretin had higher COVID-19 hospitalization rates, while biologic and non-biologic treatments generally did not increase severe infection risk.

This study surveyed the use and potential toxicity of medicinal plants in the Fez-Meknes region of Morocco, documenting 59 toxic species used primarily for cosmetic purposes and minor illnesses, and identified hair loss and rheumatism as having the highest informant agreement ratios.

This study found a significant negative correlation between serum SHBG levels and androgenetic alopecia severity in women, but not in men, while no significant correlation was observed for testosterone, estradiol, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, and vitamin D levels with hair loss severity across genders.

This descriptive longitudinal study conducted in a Kolkata hospital found that intense pulsed light treatment significantly improved hirsutism in patients, as evaluated by trichoscopy and visual analog scores, demonstrating its effectiveness and safety for hair removal, independent of medical treatment.

This study suggests that polymorphisms in the androgen receptor gene's GGC repeat and the combined CAG-GGC triplet repeats are associated with androgenetic alopecia among Han men in Eastern China.

This study found that a single application of TCDD on the skin of hairless mice altered epidermal differentiation, changing keratin expression patterns similarly to a known tumor promoter.

This study found that Tinea Corporis significantly impacts the quality of life of patients, with disease duration and body surface area involved being key factors.

In this study, both alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia were found to moderately impact quality of life, affecting emotional and social aspects in patients.

This study found that both alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia moderately impacted patients' quality of life, affecting not only physiological but also emotional and social aspects.

This Delphi study found that moderate-to-severe alopecia areata in Poland, Czechia, Russia, and Türkiye significantly impacts quality of life and highlights an unmet need for more effective treatments.

In this note, editors discuss the reproduction of medical content by Dr. Paul E. Marik, related to standardized coronavirus treatments, emphasizing that the materials appear effective and cautioning readers to consult their doctors for guidance.

This review suggests that skin may largely protect itself from CYP-generated reactive metabolites due to higher conjugating enzyme activities, while highlighting limitations in modeling human skin metabolism experimentally.

The new compounds may be more effective and cheaper than current treatments for conditions like baldness.

This study explored the potential of using isoenzyme detection after electrophoresis to characterize human hair, though no new clinical results are reported.

This study found that chemical treatments such as hair bleach and UV radiation significantly reduced the amount of 18-methyleicosanoic acid on the outer surface of human hair.

This study found that co-drugs synthesized from hydroquinone and tranexamic acid improved skin targeting and deposition, with reduced irritation and enhanced efficacy for treating hyperpigmentation.

This study found that fentanyl accumulates differently in mouse hair after systemic administration compared to external loading, suggesting ionizable functionalities of hair influence drug retention from organic solutions.

This study found that specific enzymes could be detected in fresh hair sheath cells, with most remaining detectable in older cells, except for Adenylate kinase and Esterase D.

This study identified potent dual inhibitors of 5α-reductases 1 and 2 that may aid in designing new drugs for related diseases.

This study found that chemically modifying human hair through esterification or disulfide reduction and alkylation affects the hair's viscoelastic properties, including stability, integrity, and response to moisture.

This study found that a novel thiohydantoin derivative, 3a, effectively inhibited androgen receptor activity in LNCaP cells and showed promising in vivo results by reducing testosterone-induced prostate changes, outperforming finasteride in mitigating prostate index and histopathological alterations.
