This study found that carbon nanotube impurities induced immunological toxicity in mice, whereas purified nanotubes showed good biocompatibility, suggesting high-temperature thermal treatment may improve nanotube biocompatibility.

This review discusses the infection dermatophytosis in cats and reports no new results; it emphasizes the difficulty of eradicating the disease in shelters and catteries.

This narrative review discusses the use of cyclosporin for various skin diseases in small animals and notes minimal side effects at therapeutic doses, but reports no original clinical findings.

This study suggests that Malassezia spp. overgrowth may contribute to pruritus and skin lesions in allergic cats, with antifungal treatments alone providing substantial improvements.

This study found that spironolactone reduced fish fecundity and caused masculinization of females at certain concentrations, while having no effect on Daphnia magna reproduction, underscoring concerns for environmental exposure to vertebrates.

This study found that artocarpin delivered via alginate/chitosan microparticles effectively suppressed the growth of hamster flank organs compared to artocarpin in solution form, without significant systemic effects.

This case study describes a cat with concurrent cutaneous xanthomas, demodicosis, and dermatophytosis, which suggests potential primary hyperlipidaemia as the underlying cause for its symptoms.

This case study suggests lymphocytic mural folliculitis in a cat might be an early sign of pancreatic carcinoma.

This study found that the imidacloprid/flumethrin collar (Seresto®) is chemically compatible with major spot-on formulations and dermally and systemically safe for adult dogs and cats when used together.

This study found that adding low-level laser therapy to conventional treatment for canine acral lick dermatitis significantly increased hair growth compared to conventional therapy alone, but did not significantly reduce licking behavior.

The cat had liver cancer and a related hair loss condition, with a likely cause being bile duct cancer.

This article does not contain an abstract and presents no new clinical findings, instead discussing prior cases and literature on infant alopecia universalis and the potential role of topical PUVA therapy.

In this study, a single deslorelin acetate implant led to substantial and sustained hair regrowth in two sexually intact male keeshonden with hair cycle arrest.

In this study, Pomeranians with non-illness, generalized alopecia did not exhibit adrenal or pituitary abnormalities, suggesting a breed-specific hormonal pattern as a potential cause rather than a functional adrenal anomaly.

In this case study, a three-year-old Labrador with canine atopic dermatitis showed significant improvement in pruritus and skin lesions after treatment with oclacitinib and supportive therapy over a one-month follow-up.

This case report described a Persian cat with psychogenic alopecia and secondary dermatitis linked to environmental stress, which improved with antihistamine therapy, diet changes, and owner interaction, but relapsed in a high cat population setting.

In this case report, a combination therapy including pyrantel pamoate, chlorpheniramine maleate, vitamin B-complex, and topical candlenut oil effectively treated dermatitis and Ancylostoma spp. infection in a dog, leading to improvement in skin condition and hair growth after 14 days.

In this case study, a 10-month-old Doberman with generalized demodicosis recovered fully after treatment with a combination of systemic and topical therapies, including ivermectin, hydroxyzine, enrofloxacin, fluralaner, and specialized shampoos.

This study found that in dogs with dermatological disorders, fungal dermatitis was diagnosed in 20.77% of cases, with Microsporum spp. being the most common fungal pathogen, emphasizing the need for thorough diagnostic approaches including clinical, microscopic, and cultural assessments.

In this case study, researchers found that treatment with sarolaner led to complete recovery from generalized demodicosis in six dogs within four weeks, resolving clinical signs without adverse reactions.

This research proposes to investigate the incidence of skin diseases in dogs from North-eastern India linked to deficiencies in alpha-linolenic and linoleic acids, as these essential fatty acids have anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory benefits potentially aiding inflammatory skin disease therapy.

Tailored medication preparation and ongoing education are crucial for effective treatments.

This case report from Veterinary Clinical Complex, Kurumbapet, India, described a kitten with superficial dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum spp., which was successfully treated using itraconazole syrup, cetirizine, and a liver-supportive syrup, achieving complete recovery by the third week without adverse effects.

This study found that both fluoxetine and clomipramine are effective in treating psychogenic triggers of acral lick dermatitis in dogs, with fluoxetine leading to quicker recovery and lower recurrence rates, while clomipramine showed better overall recovery rates but was associated with fewer side effects.

This study used molecular dynamics simulations to illustrate the complex molecular behavior of the hair surface F-layer, highlighting how fatty acids interact with 18-MEA under different conditions.

This case study reported that reducing glucocorticoids resolved calcinosis cutis in a dog with hypoadrenocorticism, while demodicosis was treated with a fluralaner chewable tablet.

In this case series, two cats with hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism achieved clinical remission and normal thyroid function following timely diagnosis and targeted treatment with levothyroxine and methimazole, respectively.

Different types of hair loss in dogs and cats have various causes and treatments, with outcomes ranging from good to uncertain.

This observational study reports a striking correlation between the use of henna hair dye and a specific pattern of hair loss, termed "hennapecia," but calls for experimental research to determine causality.

This article reviews topics from the American Academy of Veterinary Dermatology and American College of Veterinary Dermatology Annual Meeting and contains no new clinical findings.
