This case report highlights the rare co-occurrence of Pili Annulati and Trichorrhexis Nodosa in a Syrian woman, underlining the need for further research into their relationship and treatment.

This study identified a novel missense mutation in the FGF5 gene associated with the longhair phenotype in about 3% of Maine Coon cats, suggesting it may be a breed-specific variant.

This study reported that both AGA and SD in Caucasian male patients showed overlapping histopathological features with FAPD, particularly perifollicular fibrosis and inflammation, complicating diagnosis.

In this study, researchers found that both the EU-TIRADS and Bethesda systems exhibited high specificity but suboptimal sensitivity for predicting thyroid nodule malignancy in patients who underwent surgery, with Bethesda system showing particularly high specificity in this postoperative population.

In this observational study, researchers at a dental and craniofacial hospital found that the FUE technique for beard and moustache transplants is effective and safe, with minimal complications such as pinpoint white scars in some patients but no significant issues like infection or numbness.

This case report identifies a 23-year-old man with congenital triangular alopecia, a non-scarring alopecia characterized by preserved follicles and vellus hair, for which unnecessary interventions should be avoided.

In this article, researchers describe a novel FUE device designed to enhance follicular unit excision surgery by minimizing follicular injury and improving ergonomics with features such as Bluetooth functionality, fingertip touch sensors, and automated operation.

This article reviews factors affecting follicular unit extraction, emphasizing the need to tailor procedures to individual patient characteristics, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, researchers observed that the combination of hair progenitors and their micro-niche changes every three days in mouse zigzag hair, and disruptions in specific genes affected this rhythm, highlighting the importance of this periodic change for normal hair morphology.

Isolated long hairs at the original hairline can help diagnose Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia.

This study observed high expression of mTOR pathway effectors in fibrous papules and TSC-associated angiofibromas, suggesting that topical rapamycin might be an effective treatment for fibrous papules.

This study found that multipotent, nestin-expressing stem cells from the upper part of hair follicles can proliferate significantly and differentiate into various cell types, showing potential for nerve and spinal cord repair.

This study reported that two male patients with diffuse unpatterned alopecia exhibited donor-area involvement in both the vertex and occiput, challenging the assumption of occipital stability for hair transplantation, and showed partial improvement following treatment with oral finasteride and topical minoxidil.

This study captured digital images of hair regions in healthy individuals and patients with androgenetic alopecia to analyze and compare the number of follicular units and hairs using software.

This study found that local refinement of hair follicles into higher order patterns can occur without the core planar cell polarity system, but global alignment with body axes requires its function throughout development and regeneration.

This case study details an elderly patient with multiple nasal vestibular furunculosis leading to severe tissue damage and a nasolabial fistula, which was addressed using an alar advancement flap after allowing for tissue healing.

A young woman developed facial bumps before hair loss, which is unusual for her condition.

This case report describes a 46-year-old man diagnosed with frontal fibrosing alopecia, a condition primarily affecting postmenopausal women, highlighting its rare occurrence in men.

This study found that follicular unit extraction is effective for treating scar alopecia after craniotomy, with better outcomes achieved when 1-year postoperative hair density exceeds 20 follicles per cm².

This study revealed that during fetal development, MITF and Mart-1 expressing melanocytes progress from the dermis to the epidermis and hair follicles, with MITF possibly marking follicular stem cells.

This case report describes successful treatment of folliculitis decalvans in a 41-year-old woman using oral fusidic acid, leading to clinical improvement and no recurrences after six months.

This study found that linc-PINT expression was significantly decreased in patients with atrial fibrillation compared to healthy controls, while several TGF-β signaling genes were increased, suggesting a potential role in heart arrhythmias' pathogenesis.

This study found that adding cell adhesion-linked gene expression variables improved the identification of patients with SLN metastases within 90 days of melanoma diagnosis compared to using clinicopathologic variables alone.

This review discusses the clinical features of hypopigmented mycosis fungoides in primary cutaneous T cell lymphoma and reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 5-day-old male infant with a constellation of symptoms, including leptomeningeal angiomatosis, hair follicle nevus, and congenital alopecia, potentially representing a novel neurocutaneous syndrome.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that follicular tight junctions in porcine skin form a barrier to nanoparticle penetration, particularly in upper regions, which supports its use as a model for human skin.

This case report documents the first known instance of FOXN1 duplication linked to congenital hypertrichosis.
