This article describes a case of localized trichorrhexis nodosa in a patient with otherwise normal hair, highlighting the condition's response to trauma and diagnostic process but reporting no new clinical findings.

The study concluded that a 'Swiss cheese' pattern in hair follicles is a useful sign for diagnosing alopecia areata.

This review compiles the anatomical, histological, and physiological characteristics of various human body follicles, highlighting potential avenues for future research, but does not report new clinical results.

This case report describes a 57-year-old Japanese male with a folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma containing unusual hair shaft fragments, providing insight into its characteristic histological features.

In this case report, a benign trichoadenoma was identified in a 42-year-old man as a skin-colored nodule on the cheek, with histopathology confirming the diagnosis and differentiating it from similar conditions like pilomatricoma and sebaceous cyst.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and highlights diagnostic features, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the value of trichoscopy and histology in diagnosis.

In this study, researchers reported a rare case of nevus comedonicus with hair growth in a 26-year-old male, challenging prior reports that affected lesions typically lack the capability to develop terminal hair.

This case report describes the first use of laser capture microdissection to confirm that atypical lymphocytes in a folliculotropic mycosis fungoides case involving the central nervous system were part of the same tumor clone.

This case report describes a 46-year-old man who developed folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, a form of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder, following renal transplantation.

PCFCL may have unrecognized subtypes and needs more research.

This study identified key dermoscopic features in folliculotropic mycosis fungoides patients, showing that dilation of follicular openings and spiky follicular keratosis are specific indicators of follicular involvement, potentially aiding in diagnosis, classification, and treatment decisions.

This study suggests that fusaric acid at nontoxic concentrations may activate signal transduction in plants which could aid in the plant-defense responses against Fusarium spp.

Merkel cells are abundant in facial vellus hair follicles, especially during the anagen phase.

This study found that 11% of cutaneous focal mucinosis lesions demonstrated follicular induction, which can mimic basal cell carcinoma histologically and complicate diagnosis.

This review explores the role of lymphatic vessels in skin regeneration and hair follicle growth, emphasizing their interactions with hair follicle stem cells and potential implications for regenerative therapies, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a patient with eruptive tumor of follicular infundibulum, emphasizing the need for dermatologists to include it in the differential diagnosis of acquired facial hypopigmentation.

The study observed that patterned fibrosing alopecia, a type of scarring hair loss, appears in some patients after hair transplants, facelifts, and other surgical interventions, sharing features with lichen planopilaris and androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, the researchers found that transplanted hair follicles undergo significant morphological changes, including a thickened dermal sheath and increased hair shaft diameter, which are associated with altered follicular vascularization.

This case report describes a unique presentation of frontal fibrosing alopecia characterized by a hair loss pattern that resembles the Greek letter upsilon, supported by trichoscopic and histological findings.

This study describes a newly observed "inflammatory vellus involvement" pattern in early frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may lead to misdiagnosis due to the absence of typical histological features.

This review found that fulvestrant is well tolerated in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer, showing lower incidence of joint disorders than non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors.

This case report highlights a rare instance of follicular mucinosis in a 15-year-old male, emphasizing its self-limiting, benign course but noting the need for long-term monitoring due to potential association with mycosis fungoides.

This study found that fibronectin supports hair follicle regeneration by influencing stem cell behavior through integrin-dependent mechanotransduction, highlighting its potential role in epidermal renewal.

This case report documents only the second known instance of congenital lymphadenoma, expanding the diagnostic possibilities for cutaneous lymphoepithelial tumors in children.

This report describes two cases of nevus lipomatosus superficialis with the unusual feature of dilated hair follicles, emphasizing the need for precise histopathological diagnosis to differentiate from similar conditions.

This study describes how arrector pili muscles form a single muscular structure shared by all hair follicles within a follicular unit at the isthmus level in scalp skin.

This study discovered that adipose tissue infiltration at the isthmus level appears significantly more often in frontal fibrosing alopecia cases compared to controls, suggesting a potential role in the condition's pathology.

This study found that dermoscopy of the axilla in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia revealed significantly higher odds of brownish peripillary halos, suggesting a diagnostic clue for the condition in this region.
