January 2014 in “Health Renaissance” This report describes a rare case of pseudopelade of Brocq in a 20-year-old male, emphasizing its unique presentation with scalp hair loss and mild itching.
November 2025 in “Archiv für Pathologische Anatomie und Physiologie und für Klinische Medicin” This study examined 16 sporadic trichoblastic tumors and found that although one showed malignant transformation, clinical follow-up revealed no residual or metastatic disease. RNA sequencing indicated a high tumor mutational burden and absence of a UV-related signature, helping to distinguish these tumors from similar growths.
September 2019 in “Romanian Journal of Pediatrics” This article discusses the unique regenerative healing process in fetal skin that can occur without scarring, highlighting potential therapeutic targets to reduce fibrosis in postnatal wound healing.
November 2025 in “Skin Appendage Disorders” This review discusses the role of perifollicular fibrosis in androgenetic alopecia and suggests that targeting specific signaling pathways could improve treatment outcomes, but reports no new clinical results.
This review discusses the role of perifollicular fibrosis in androgenetic alopecia and explores potential treatment strategies targeting fibrotic signaling pathways, but reports no new clinical results.
March 2021 in “Der Hautarzt” This review covers the clinical features, pathophysiology, differential diagnoses, and therapeutic options for neuroendocrine paraneoplastic syndromes affecting the skin but reports no new clinical findings.
This article discusses folliculitis decalvans as a cicatricial alopecia caused by a neutrophilic immune reaction to microbial biofilms, but it reports no new clinical results.
This review summarizes the potential of single traditional Chinese medicines and extracts in preventing and treating renal fibrosis, emphasizing their capacity to inhibit transforming growth factor β and reduce extracellular matrix formation, but it reports no new clinical results.

January 2023 in “npj regenerative medicine” This study found that transplanting hair follicles into human scars may remodel fibrotic tissue and reduce scarring by altering collagen structure and decreasing pro-fibrotic factors.
June 2026 in “Indian Journal of Dermatology Venereology and Leprology” This study analyzed trichoscopic features of discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp in skin of color and found distinct patterns based on clinical morphology.
April 2026 in “Biomedical Research and Therapy” This study found that certain genetic variants, specifically CYB5R1 and IL1A, may be linked to different types of acne scarring, with CYB5R1 associated with atrophic scarring and IL1A with fibrotic scarring, indicating a potential polygenic nature of acne scarring.
February 2026 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” This study found that a family history of androgenetic alopecia and specific trichoscopic signs are strong predictors of female pattern hair loss, leading to a nomogram model for risk prediction.
