This review discusses the dermatologic needs and care considerations for transgender patients undergoing gender transition, highlighting the unique role dermatologists can play, but it does not report new clinical results.

This study found that P311 triggers transdifferentiation of epidermal stem cells into myofibroblast-like cells via TGFβ1/Smad signaling during wound healing.

This study observed that drug-naïve first-episode psychosis patients had higher hair cortisol concentrations than healthy controls, and these concentrations correlated with the severity of psychopathology.

This study highlights multiple factors contributing to hair graying, such as oxidative damage, melanocyte changes, and genetic influences, and suggests that repigmentation may be temporarily reversible, offering potential targets for future treatments while urging caution when applying mouse model findings to humans.

This study found that psychological and social reporting after trauma with scarring can indicate a person's reaction and susceptibility to psychopathology.

In this case study, divisional thallium intoxication in an adolescent led to progressive optic and peripheral neuropathy, with neurological deterioration occurring more rapidly after a second ingestion.

This study reported that relocation in police horses was associated with elevated hair cortisol concentrations, possibly suggesting altered welfare due to changed surroundings, and that seasonal variations affected both cortisol levels and hair growth.

This case report discusses a young man's severe febrile illness mimicking leptospirosis or dengue, ultimately suggesting Gloriosa superba poisoning after hair loss led to the correct diagnosis.

This case study describes a patient with Turner syndrome who, despite lacking many classic features, presented with multiple autoimmune diseases, suggesting a link between complex X chromosome rearrangements and increased autoimmune risk.

This review discusses the potential dermatological benefits of caffeine for hair growth, rosacea, and skin cancer, but notes significant limitations in available research.

This study highlights the severe health risks and dependence associated with non-medical androgen use among gym-goers, stressing the need for specialized primary care and harm-reduction strategies due to potentially fatal outcomes even after prolonged cessation.

This study describes a case of a 35-year-old woman who developed symptoms of hyperandrogenism and disrupted steroidogenesis due to chronic use of electronic cigarettes containing compounds similar to etomidate, despite no genetic mutation indicating 11β-hydroxylase deficiency.

2h-ICPR can help screen for insulin antibodies in type 2 diabetes patients.

This study found that progesterone levels were suppressed in underweight anorexia nervosa patients compared to healthy controls, as measured through hair analysis, and did not increase during short-term weight restoration.

This study found that higher hair cortisol concentrations, indicating chronic stress, were associated with an increased risk of aneurysmal rupture in patients with intracranial aneurysms.

This research found that escin, when applied topically, enhances blood flow in human skin and promotes changes in endothelial cell signaling pathways, suggesting potential benefits for improving cutaneous microcirculation.

This study found that some white or grey human hairs can naturally regain pigmentation, suggesting a potential temporary reversibility of hair greying associated with stress and molecular changes.

This paper introduces a new understanding that the human hair follicle medulla lacks metabolic activity for H2O2 breakdown, indicating that H2O2 decomposition occurs primarily in the cortical areas.

In this study, researchers used SEM/SDD-EDS to identify waterborne minerals like calcium and aluminum in the scalp hair cuticle of individuals using treated or untreated water for hair washing, finding that prior application of coconut oil or conditioners can prevent calcium uptake.

This study identified key molecular differences between Long and Short hair type cashmere goats, suggesting hair type differentiation is linked to structural assembly and follicle remodeling.

This study found that hair manganese levels did not vary by acute coronary syndrome or stable coronary artery disease severity, but a modest, non-significant correlation with body mass index suggests a potential link between manganese homeostasis and cardiometabolic status that warrants further investigation.

This study reported that Gunja (Abrus precatorius Linn.) demonstrates various pharmacological activities, including antifertility, hair growth promotion, immunomodulatory effects, and anticancer properties, supported by its phytochemical composition and analytical advancements, suggesting its potential in Ayurvedic therapeutic applications and future drug development.

This study used advanced chromatographic and mass spectrometric techniques to develop a method for reliably detecting 17 hair growth compounds in consumer products, aiming to enhance regulatory compliance and ensure consumer safety against illicit compounds.

This study found that collecting hair samples for cortisol analysis is feasible in community-dwelling individuals with longstanding multiple sclerosis, although no significant correlation between hair cortisol levels and perceived chronic stress was observed, highlighting the complexity of stress measurement in this population.

This review provides current insights into the role of Demodex mites in acne and rosacea, detailing their involvement in sebaceous gland diseases due to their potential to cause inflammation and disrupt skin microbial balance, while suggesting methods to correct mite overgrowth.

In this case study, researchers documented chronic dermatitis and ulcerative lesions in a 70-year-old Syrian man following chlorine gas exposure during the conflict, highlighting the need for healthcare planning and registries to manage long-term effects in affected populations.

This study describes an innovative hair restoration technique combining traditional hair transplantation with autologous stem cells, which enhances hair density and quality by optimizing transplantation results through the treatment of both native and transplanted follicles.
