This study found that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution in Hispanic male patients often resembles androgenetic alopecia, with a tendency for earlier onset compared to European and North American populations.

This study found that autophagy is impaired in Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome-associated renal tumors and identified that the FLCN protein interacts with key autophagy components regulated by ULK1.

A man developed a rare blood vessel connection on his scalp after hair transplants, which was successfully treated with surgery.

This case report documents an unusual instance of follicular vitiligo in a young woman, characterized by selective hair depigmentation on the forearms, distinctive dermoscopic and Wood's lamp findings, and histological evidence suggesting functional impairment rather than complete loss of follicular melanocytes.

This study found that selective downregulation of CD200 in the bulge area might contribute to unusual bulge involvement in a subset of alopecia areata cases.

This study found that the DFS pattern occurs in about 28% of ANA-positive cases and is relatively frequent in autoimmune diseases, contrary to previous observations suggesting no link with these diseases.

In this study, D-OCT imaging revealed distinct structural and vascular changes in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the technique's potential for diagnosing and monitoring the condition's activity.

This article describes a previously unreported hair anomaly associated with facio-genito-popliteal syndrome and does not present new clinical results.

In this histopathology study of nevus sebaceus, researchers observed distinct epidermal, sebaceous, follicular, and apocrine changes, including sebaceous hyperplasia and basaloid adnexal proliferation, which help differentiate it from similar conditions like basal cell carcinoma and trichoblastoma.

This article describes pilar cysts, common dermal cysts often seen in young women, which typically require surgical removal.

This study found that mouse type II spiral ganglion neurites in vitro avoided laminin and high concentrations of fibronectin, indicating both can guide neurite paths differently than type I neurites.

This study found that follicular unit transplantation using specific techniques may improve the natural appearance of transplanted hair in patients with male-pattern hair loss.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with alopecia mucinosa presenting multiple enlarging facial plaques, indicating a potentially non-benign course despite prior classifications.

This study found that hair follicles with twisted bulbs demonstrated similar survival rates to intact follicles after transplantation into nude mice, suggesting they may be viable for use in FUE surgery.

Fibronectin and other basement membrane components increase during hair growth and decrease during rest.

The study found that, unlike in actinic keratosis and squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma tissues showed higher expression of nidogen1 and Col4 in both basement membranes and surrounding stroma compared to normal skin.

In this study, the researchers reported that early diagnosis and treatment of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may arrest or potentially reverse disease progression, though some patients experienced continued hair loss.

This study describes a novel FUE device that may perform successfully across various patient scenarios, adapting to differences in skin firmness, thickness, and hair curliness.

This case report describes a unique lesion in a 10-month-old girl, characterized by increased eccrine glands and hair follicles, leading to the proposed term "hybrid eccrine gland and hair follicle hamartoma".

This case report reviews panfolliculoma, a rare benign follicular tumor, highlighting its occurrence and characteristics, and emphasizes the importance of accurate histopathological differentiation to avoid misdiagnosis.

This study examined the follicular unit density in the scalp and beard donor areas of Indian men undergoing hair restoration surgery, reporting mean densities of 78.2/cm² and 49.7/cm² respectively, and proposed guidelines for safe follicular unit extraction.

In this study, pilomatricoma, a benign skin tumor from hair follicle matrix cells, is highlighted as an important consideration when diagnosing painless, firm subcutaneous nodules, with accurate diagnosis relying on histopathological examination.

This study found that donor sites with higher hair density and thicker hair diameter had a better appearance after follicular unit excision in men with androgenic alopecia.

The case study reports a patient with acute telogen effluvium in the donor region post-hair transplant, highlighting trichoscopic findings that aid in diagnosis and reassuring the self-resolutive nature of this condition.

This study presents the first reported case of woolly hair nevus appearing during adolescence, with significant improvement observed 5 years later and structural changes in the hair documented.

This report describes two patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia who developed acute hair loss on their limbs, revealing that the limb alopecia had similar histological features to scalp alopecia.

This study found that notch1 signaling is severely impaired in hidradenitis suppurativa patients with or without NCSTN or other gamma-secretase gene mutations, highlighting a canonical defect at the lesional tissue level.

This case report describes a rare instance of trichogerminoma with unusually numerous mitotic figures and a higher Ki67 proliferative rate, distinguishing it from previously documented cases.
