This review summarizes the use of fecal glucocorticoid metabolite analysis to monitor stress across various bear species and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the unclear etiology and potential contributing factors of frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no new clinical findings.

In this open-label study of post-menopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, researchers found that 12 weeks of baricitinib monotherapy significantly reduced disease activity as measured by the Lichen Planopilaris Activity Index, improved patient-reported scalp hair growth, but showed no significant change in eyebrow growth.

This study found that impaired TCF/Lef1 signaling in mice leads to significant skin barrier defects due to altered lipid metabolism and epidermal differentiation.

This study found that in a tertiary academic institution, nearly 1 in 5 dermatology consults were for drug-related skin reactions, with antibiotics frequently identified as the culprits.

This review examined the common side effects of FGFR inhibitors like erdafitinib, pemigatinib, and futibatinib, and detailed strategies for managing them, highlighting that proactive monitoring and appropriate interventions can effectively mitigate these toxicities.

This study analyzed the relationship between clinical and anthropometric factors with the free androgen index to better evaluate polycystic ovarian syndrome, but results are not reported in the abstract.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, including its various forms and potential multifactorial causes, but provides no new clinical findings.

This study found that ferulic acid promotes wound healing by inhibiting β-catenin in keratinocytes and activating Nrf2 to reduce inflammation at the wound edge.

Adalimumab improved folliculitis decalvans in most patients.

This case report describes hair regrowth in a patient with alopecia totalis using fluocinolone acetonide cream applied under thin plastic films.

This case report describes a girl with familial adenomatous polyposis who exhibited heterosexual precocious puberty due to an adrenal tumor secreting cortisol and androgens; after her adrenalectomy, her hormone levels normalized and symptoms improved, illustrating the link between genetic syndromes and endocrine disorders.

In this study, FCE 28260 showed greater potency than finasteride in inhibiting 5α-reductase enzymes and reducing prostate DHT levels in rats.

This case report suggests that in African-American patients, the histology of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia may resemble lichen planopilaris, indicating a potential diagnostic challenge.

This review discusses the use of tofacitinib as a treatment for plaque psoriasis, highlighting its efficacy and safety in clinical trials, but notes unresolved questions regarding long-term safety.

This study developed a highly sensitive fluorescent assay for measuring enzyme activity in single hair follicles, allowing the efficient analysis of over 100 samples per day.

In this case report, researchers identified a potential adverse skin reaction, called SDRIFE or Baboon syndrome, caused by the drug tofacitinib in a 19-year-old woman being treated for alopecia subtotalis, leading the authors to recommend discontinuation of the drug.

In this study, researchers developed topical tofacitinib-loaded cationic lipid nanoparticles, which improved absorption and targeted hair follicles in an ex vivo pig ear model, showing promise in treating alopecia areata by reducing symptoms through the JAK/STAT pathway.

This case report suggests that identifying hyperpigmentation on the upper eyelid with specific dermoscopy patterns could help diagnose facial lichen planus pigmentosus without needing a facial biopsy.

This study identified a novel missense mutation in the FGF5 gene associated with the longhair phenotype in about 3% of Maine Coon cats, suggesting it may be a breed-specific variant.

This study found that tofacitinib significantly improved disease activity in most patients with LPP, though further research is needed to refine protocols, understand response predictors, and address gender-specific adverse effects.

This study identified a novel missense MAFB variant in a family with some unaffected members, suggesting incomplete penetrance and the potential influence of modifier genes, epigenetic mechanisms, or environmental factors on MCTO phenotype.

This study explores the expression of Snail1 in the fibrotic dermis of postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting a possible link to epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

This chapter discusses the role of orthognathic surgeons in facial feminization surgery, focusing on procedures such as forehead reduction and orbital rim contouring, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the authors' concerns over the misinterpretation of studies linking smoking and frontal fibrosing alopecia, clarifying that neither study suggests smoking is protective against the condition.

This article discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting potential connections to lichen planopilaris, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study examined epidemiological data on patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia in Greece and found demographic patterns consistent with international studies.

This meta-analysis found a significant positive association between frontal fibrosing alopecia and both sunscreen and moisturizer use, with the moisturizer association significant only in males.

In this study, a patient with recalcitrant lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia showed significant improvement after receiving four doses of the interleukin-23 monoclonal antibody tildrakizumab.

This study found that low-level laser therapy effectively reduced relapse rates, while functional appliances did not; combining them offered no additional benefits.
