1 citations
,
June 2014 in “International Journal of Dermatology” This correspondence discusses follicular mucinosis in association with pregnancy but does not report new clinical results, instead calling attention to the observed connection.
1 citations
,
December 2013 in “BMJ case reports” This case report describes a 27-year-old pregnant woman with Werner9s syndrome and uncontrolled hypertension, resulting in her death during an emergency caesarean section, though her baby survived and tested negative for the condition.

,
January 1997 in “Skin Pharmacology and Physiology” In this study, researchers found a significant decrease in the modulus of elasticity of hair shafts in premature neonates compared to full-term ones, potentially due to differences in disulphide bonds or microfibril arrangement.
March 2026 in “DergiPark (Istanbul University)” This study evaluated pregnant women's skincare and cosmetic usage habits, revealing that despite continued use during pregnancy, their awareness and practices of sun protection were insufficient. The researchers suggest that educational programs could improve knowledge on safe cosmetic choices and sun protection for expectant mothers.
August 2025 in “BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth” In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.
This study found that self-monitoring blood pressure among pregnant women with hypertension did not significantly improve clinical outcomes compared to usual care, though women reported positive cognitive and emotional responses.
March 2022 in “Journal of Pakistan Association of Dermatologists” This case report describes a pregnant woman with pemphigus vulgaris whose condition improved with systemic corticosteroid treatment, highlighting the challenges of managing PV during pregnancy and the importance of intensive monitoring.
January 2022 in “Bio web of conferences/BIO web of conferences” This study concluded that the elemental composition of tail brush hair in newborn calves can indicate trace element supply to the fetus during the last months of pregnancy.
September 2018 in “Fertility and Sterility” This study observed that inflammatory stimuli significantly altered gene expression in rat theca-interstitial cells, affecting pathways related to growth and androgen production, which are central features of polycystic ovary syndrome.
August 2014 in “Warwick Research Archive Portal (University of Warwick)” This study found that obesity in women may impair endometrial stromal function and contribute to reproductive complications, possibly due to metabolic influences rather than immune cell differences.
December 2012 in “Journal of dermatological science” This study observed that Langerhans cells and melanocytes migrated to hair follicle sites during human embryogenesis, suggesting that Langerhans cells acquire immunoregulatory properties there.
September 2012 in “대한피부과학회지” In this study, Dsc 1 was highly expressed in certain layers of fetal epidermis and hair follicle but not in basal cells or oral mucosa, indicating its potential role in maintaining epithelial integrity.
This study found that prenatal exposure to finasteride in rats disrupted male reproductive development, causing physical alterations such as delayed preputial separation and increased nipple retention.
This study observed that the expression of EGF and EGFR increased during goat fetal skin development, suggesting these components play significant roles in skin maturation.
January 1980 in “Journal of the Japan Veterinary Medical Association” This study suggests that iodine deficiency in sows may cause alopecia and other health issues in their newborn piglets.
