This research highlights the potential of emulgel as an advanced topical drug delivery system, offering improved efficacy for hydrophobic medications in treating dermatological conditions and a range of ailments with its dual release control mechanism of gel and emulsion.

This article presents diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations for cutaneous lupus erythematosus from the Polish Dermatological Society, but reports no new clinical findings.

The document concludes that proper diagnosis and treatment of nonscarring alopecias can improve quality of life and hair regrowth is possible as the hair follicle remains intact.

This paper reviews causes of hirsutism in women and emphasizes the importance of identifying underlying conditions for risk assessment, though it reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews risk factors and warning signs of elder abuse in different settings, emphasizing the importance of dermatologists in correctly identifying potential abuse injuries, but presents no new clinical findings.

This report describes two cases where female patients with chronic granulomatous disease developed manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting a rare association that may influence clinical evaluation and treatment planning.

This study found that deleting the ATR gene in adult mice led to rapid onset of age-related traits such as hair graying and osteoporosis through reduced regenerative capacity.

This study found that 'smart' peptide hydrogels improved wound healing in a rat model of partial thickness burns, achieving greater wound closure and faster debridement compared to a standard treatment.

This article discusses the histologic features of psoriasis, including psoriasiform epidermal hyperplasia and neutrophilic involvement, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that the hairless gene in mice has a more extensive role in development than previously thought, as indicated by its expression in various tissues and associated abnormalities in hr/hr mutants.

This article reviews the clinical and diagnostic features of hair shaft disorders, emphasizing the role of structured patient assessments and the avoidance of hair trauma, but reports no new results.

This study found that trichoscopic features like exclamation mark hairs and angulated hairs were more indicative of alopecia areata in an Asian population, while features like broken hairs of different lengths and flame hairs were more common in trichotillomania.

This study concluded that the process of mummification disfigures facial features, making identification challenging, but commercial shrunken heads retain more defining features compared to ceremonial ones.

This review discusses the limitations of current hair classification systems and highlights the need for standardized reporting of key hair characteristics to improve study comparisons; it reports no new results.

This study found that the Plcd3(mNab) mutation in mice worsens the alopecia caused by Plcd1 loss, suggesting synergistic effects between Plcd1 and Plcd3 on hair follicle health.

This study found that mutations in the hairless gene disrupt normal hair follicle development by impairing Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting hair keratinocyte differentiation in both mice and humans.

In this study, researchers evaluated a multi-herbal shampoo made with natural components like aloe and hibiscus, reporting it as safer and more effective than synthetic options, though consumer acceptance remains a challenge.

This study identified a specific genetic variant in the CCHCR1 gene that may contribute to alopecia areata through impaired keratinization, suggesting an alternative mechanism beyond autoimmune causes.

This study describes three adult dogs with sebaceous gland dysplasia, reporting that two showed moderate to marked improvement in symptoms with treatment, though ongoing management is required as the condition cannot be cured.

This review discusses various drugs that can cause drug-induced acne, noting specific clinical and histopathologic features, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes a rare autosomal dominant hair shaft disorder, monilethrix, observed in three consecutive generations of a family, with gradual improvement noted with age.

Mutations in the DSG4 gene cause specific hair and scalp issues.

In this case report, a 6-year-old boy with Netherton syndrome was diagnosed using trichoscopy, which revealed characteristic hair shaft abnormalities such as bamboo, golf tee, and matchstick hairs.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl diagnosed with monilethrix despite no familial history and treated with a topical minoxidil trial.

This review explores epidermolysis bullosa simplex subtypes caused by mutations in KRT5 or KRT14 and summarizes gene expression patterns and molecular mechanisms, without presenting new experimental results.

This systematic review identified topical and oral minoxidil as the most effective treatments for monilethrix, but noted the varying efficacy of oral retinoids and other treatments.

This report expands the known genetic mutations linked to monilethrix by identifying new patients with KRT83 mutations, confirming its role as a causative gene for this hair disorder.

Dermoscopy quickly and accurately diagnosed a rare hair disorder in a 12-year-old girl.

This study found that the antiviral drug daclatasvir significantly improved fibrosis and quality of life in a mouse model of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, suggesting potential for treating this and other fibrotic diseases.

This review discusses the use of ceramic-coated flat irons for hair straightening and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight potential hair damage risks from improper use.
