This study identified a large deletion in the desmoglein 4 gene as the genetic basis of the Iffa Credo "hairless" rat's skin phenotype, linking it to lanceolate hair mutations.

This case report describes a female SLE patient with CNS involvement who developed an acute West Nile virus infection, highlighting the diagnostic challenges in differentiating infection from a disease flare in immunosuppressed individuals.

In this study, the authors observed that cell-mediated immune mechanisms may be involved in the pathogenesis of benign follicular mucinosis, based on the cellular and immunological characteristics of two patient cases.

This review highlights the potential of targeting hepatic stellate cell ferroptosis as a treatment strategy for liver fibrosis, underscoring the need for further research into ferroptosis mechanisms in these cells to better understand and combat this condition.

This case study describes a 40-year-old man diagnosed with pilotropic mycosis fungoides, a form of folliculotropic cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of hair follicles and eccrine glands.

This case study reported a rare occurrence of lepromatous leprosy with Lucio phenomenon in a 50-year-old Indonesian living in Malaysia, highlighting the necessity for primary care practitioners, even in non-endemic areas, to recognize this serious leprosy reaction to prevent complications and transmission.

This study demonstrated that Forsythiaside A improved survival and reduced neurological deficits in rats with cerebral ischemic injury, potentially through activating Nrf2 and reducing ER stress pathways.

This study suggests that a newly discovered protein, AMY117, found in Alzheimer's disease brain lesions may be crucial in the disease's development and progression.

This case study reports a peculiar variant of an epidermal cyst in a patient, featuring unique characteristics like brownish, lumpy contents resembling bone marrow.

This study reviewed cases of Graham–Little-Piccardi–Lassueur syndrome and found that topical treatments were generally ineffective, while systemic therapies like prednisone, hydroxychloroquine, and isotretinoin led to partial hair regrowth and disease stabilization, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and systemic therapy to improve outcomes.

This report documents the first known case of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy potentially linked to pegylated interferon-alpha 2a in a woman undergoing treatment for chronic hepatitis C.

This study found that inhibiting the gp130 Y814 signaling module promotes tissue regeneration and may prevent pathological outcomes after injury in animal models.

This review summarizes recent advances in understanding intermediate filament structure and their implications for pathological mutations and human diseases, but it reports no new experimental results.

In this case report, a rare pilar cyst was found in the left temporal region of a 75-year-old male, highlighting the potential for such cysts to mimic temporal space infections and complicate treatment plans.

This case report found that the most likely cause of the patient's seizures and brain tumor was prior radiation exposure, with seizures managed effectively using intravenous lorazepam and subsequent treatment for the brain mass.

This review discusses the Vogt-Koyanagi syndrome, highlighting its symptoms and historical context, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize its recognition as a distinct clinical entity.

In this case study, a man with necrolytic migratory erythema and a glucagonoma experienced decreased plasma glucagon levels and reduced metastases after treatment with dimethyltriazenoimidazole carboxamide.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl with an extensive Microsporum canis scalp infection, highlighting griseofulvin as the preferred treatment and noting corticosteroids' benefit in severe inflammatory cases.

This case study reports the first documented instance of kerion Celsi in a child caused by Microsporum gypseum, likely transmitted from a guinea pig, with remission observed following combination therapy.

In this case report, researchers described a rare instance of granuloma annulare in a six-year-old child mimicking alopecia mucinosa, highlighting the importance of clinicopathologic correlation in diagnosing dermatological conditions. Treatment with topical mometasone furoate led to a satisfactory improvement and complete resolution within seven months.

This study evaluated the effects of tip cryotherapy on idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis lesions, finding that 82.3% of treated lesions showed significant improvement after four months compared to only 2% of control lesions, with minimal side effects.

This review discusses cellular senescence in relation to ALS and explores how targeting senescent cells could potentially serve as a treatment strategy, but it reports no new clinical findings and emphasizes that this link is not yet conclusively established.

This article discusses the potential of intralesional cidofovir for treating SCC without systemic toxicity, noting that surgical excision remains the best treatment option; it reports no new clinical results.

This study details the characteristics of lipedematous alopecia and lipedematous scalp, two rare scalp conditions, suggesting they may represent different stages of the same disorder, with lipedematous scalp lacking the hair loss seen in lipedematous alopecia.

This study found that single-crystal magnesium samples smaller than 100 nm exhibited increased plastic deformation due to greater activation of nonbasal planes as local flow stresses approached 2 GPa.

This case report presents a rare subtype of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy linked to a PYCR2 gene mutation, emphasizing exome sequencing's value in diagnosing undiagnosed childhood HLDs with atypical symptoms.

In this study, a dual recombinase-mediated genetic system showed that cavity macrophages accumulate on the surface of visceral organs during lung and liver injury but do not penetrate or contribute to tissue repair.

This study found that GLI1 RNA CISH was highly sensitive and specific for distinguishing basal cell carcinoma from nonfollicular epithelial neoplasms but not from most benign follicular tumors.

A woman with Parry-Romberg syndrome developed new curly hair on one side of her scalp, a condition not previously linked to the syndrome.
