This report describes a pancreatic mixed acinar-neuroendocrine carcinoma in a cat, underscoring its diagnostic complexity and the need to consider it in diagnoses of pancreatic masses with mixed features.

The pilot study found that while women with habitual short sleep increased their sleep duration by an average of 40.7 minutes, there were no significant changes in insulin sensitivity, androgens, or leptin levels post-intervention, suggesting further research is needed.

This article discusses various hair loss disorders such as scarring and nonscarring alopecia and emphasizes the importance of diagnosis through patient interviews and trichoscopy, while highlighting existing treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and emerging therapies from ongoing research.

This case report describes digital gangrene as a rare primary manifestation of late-onset systemic lupus erythematosus in a 56-year-old man, with marked lesion improvement following rituximab treatment.

This review discusses the natural history, clinical features, and treatment updates for keloids but reports no new clinical findings.

In this case report, a 9-year-old girl with extensive alopecia areata experienced almost complete hair regrowth within six months after treatment with Oral Mini Pulse of prednisolone and cyclosporine.

This study found that a combination treatment using oral and topical steroids with topical minoxidil was well-tolerated in children with severe recalcitrant alopecia areata, showing good responses except in alopecia universalis cases.

Since 1995, we only use Follicular Unit Transplantation for hair restoration and stopped using minigrafting/micrografting techniques.

In this observational study of female undergraduate students, researchers found a significant correlation between the use of eyelash extensions and ocular side effects such as itching, lashes pulling out, and heavy eyelids, affecting 54% of participants during or after use.

In this study, multiple mini punch grafts significantly improved epithelialization, covering more than 90% of a large ulcer in a 6-year-old boy after eight weeks.

This review discusses immune pathways involved in alopecia areata and explores emerging, more targeted therapeutic strategies, noting their potential for better safety and effectiveness compared to traditional immune suppressants.

This study demonstrates that T-cell responses in extensive alopecia areata scalp may be aberrantly regulated, with reduced cytokine production but activated phenotype, providing insight into the disease's immune mechanisms.

This report describes a case where a sex reassignment patient on estrogen therapy experienced complete hair regrowth on a previously fully alopecic scalp.

This study found that serum MIF levels were significantly higher in patients with extensive alopecia areata compared to those with mild alopecia areata and healthy individuals.

In this study, researchers retrospectively analyzed five children with extensive and refractory alopecia areata treated with mesalazine, observing complete hair regrowth in all patients without side effects, suggesting potential benefits of this treatment combination, though controlled studies are needed for confirmation.

This study found that a PEEP of 10 mbar for 2 hours did not adversely affect liver function or gastric mucosal perfusion in patients after cardiac surgery, as long as cardiac output was maintained.

This study introduces the "skinspan" framework to promote skin longevity through sun protection, topical retinoids, and antioxidants as first-line care. It suggests lasers and emerging therapies as additional options but emphasizes the need for more randomized controlled trials to solidify the evidence base.

This review discusses emerging evidence on azathioprine's efficacy and safety for severe alopecia areata, reporting sustained response in many patients but emphasizing the need for controlled trials.

In this reported case, a 30-year-old man with a long history of alopecia universalis experienced limited regrowth of eyebrows and eyelashes after six months of deuruxolitinib, despite unchanged scalp hair, suggesting site-specific potential for hair regrowth in challenging cases.

This study identified a specific hemizygous intronic variant in the MBTPS2 gene associated with IFAP syndrome in a patient, revealing exon skipping and reduced normal transcript expression through long-read RNA sequencing.

In this case study, a 35-year-old male with severe burn-related scalp injuries underwent successful reconstruction through tissue expansion, skin grafts, and multiple hair transplant sessions, resulting in satisfactory aesthetic and functional recovery.

In this study, researchers explained that healing of extensive skin defects involves granulation filling the wound cavity, followed by epithelialization from skin edges and hair follicles, which are crucial steps in wound healing.

This study found that a catalytically active version of Vav2 significantly altered gene expression patterns in hair follicle stem cells in mice, with these changes varying over the animals' lifespans.

This case report describes a 52-year-old woman with erythema annulare centrifugum after using topical luliconazole and oral itraconazole, suggesting a drug-induced reaction confirmed by a positive rechallenge test.

This article contains only correspondence information and acknowledges contributions but reports no new research results.

This study found that in Arabidopsis thaliana, the interaction between extracellular leucine-rich repeat extensins and the receptor-like kinase FERONIA helps control vacuolar expansion, crucial for cellular elongation.

This review discusses the regenerative processes of deer antlers compared to other vertebrates and reports no new experimental findings, suggesting insights for regenerative medicine and cancer biology.

This study observed that after hair cell loss in the mouse cochlea, supporting cells were replaced by migrating non-specialised cells, with genetic background affecting the rate of tissue re-organization.

In this study, complete to excellent hair regrowth was observed in 63.3% of patients with extensive alopecia areata treated with biweekly dexamethasone pulses, although mild side effects were frequent.

In this study, 21.1% of participants had actinic keratoses, with higher prevalence in men, and certain genetic and photoaging factors were positively associated with AK, though smoking was linked to reduced risk.
