In this study, mixed lice infestations and their associated skin changes were observed in the Egyptian lesser blind mole rat, marking the first report of such findings in this species.

This case report highlights an atypical presentation of favus in an immunocompetent adult, where a psoriasiform plaque over the 'bindi' area was successfully treated with systemic itraconazole, achieving complete resolution without relapse. Simple stains proved essential for diagnosis in this resource-limited setting.

Follicular red dots can appear where alopecia areata and vitiligo overlap.

This study reported complete clinical clearance of tinea capitis in a 3-year-old boy after 8 weeks of treatment with oral griseofulvin and ketoconazole shampoo.

This case report describes a 5-year-old boy with a solitary patch of hair loss, indicating possible fungal involvement after initial antibiotic treatment was minimally effective.

This study reported that a newly developed hydrogel patch, designed to recruit regulatory T cells through ROS-triggered release of CCL22, improved wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in a diabetic mouse model by scavenging ROS, thereby protecting Tregs and suppressing Th17 cells.

A new genetic mutation in the CAST gene may link PLACK syndrome to alopecia areata.

In this case study, a 3-year-old with tinea capitis achieved complete resolution following treatment, highlighting hair salons as potential indirect transmission sites for infection and emphasizing trichoscopy's diagnostic value when traditional signs like Wood’s lamp fluorescence are missing.

Red dots on the upper chest may be an early sign of certain types of hair loss.

This case report describes successful treatment of a 7-year-old girl with gray patch tinea capitis using oral micronized griseofulvin and topical ketoconazole shampoo, resulting in complete clinical and microscopic clearance.

This article discusses a case of patchy alopecia areata that spares greying hairs but reports no new findings; it refers to existing literature for context.

This article reviews the medicinal properties of Semecarpus anacardium and its biologically active compounds, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study presents a DNA-analytical method that can reliably identify and differentiate cashmere, fine wool, yak, and camel hair fibers in both untreated and processed samples.

This review discusses the use of cosmetic nanocarriers to improve hair appearance and reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses post-SSRI sexual dysfunction and post-finasteride syndrome, highlighting unknowns about their true incidence and underlying causes, and reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp may be a type of spongiotic, pustular superficial folliculitis, sharing similarities with other neutrophilic dermatoses.

This study observed that repeated shaving and topical treatments, particularly TPA, stimulated hair regrowth in C3H mice, while certain treatments like betamethasone valerate completely inhibited it.

This article discusses patient selection and procedural design for hair transplant surgery without reporting new clinical results; it also considers how hair transplant designs can align with various hairstyles.

This study found that the methanolic heartwood extract of Avicennia marina significantly inhibits 5α-reductase type 1, reducing 5α-DHT production by 52% in a cell-based assay with human hair dermal papilla cells.

In this scoping review, researchers found that while some dietary approaches may help improve psoriasis symptoms—particularly in those with obesity or coeliac disease—the overall evidence is limited, and larger studies are necessary to identify effective diets for the broader psoriasis population.

This case study discusses a postmenopausal woman's frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planus pigmentosus, controlled with corticosteroids and finasteride, highlighting diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in scarring alopecia.

This article discusses strategies for changing hair color by regulating target genes in hair follicles using advanced delivery systems, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This scoping review found a high prevalence of skin conditions among older people living at home, but available evidence on burden and effective care strategies is limited.

This study identified two cytochrome P450 enzymes in Avicennia marina leaves that may contribute to the biosynthesis of triterpenoids, potentially responsible for the plant's medicinal properties.

This study reports that patients with Alzheimer's disease have increased levels of polyamines in their hair.

This study identified key lipid differences between black and white hair in individuals with premature greying, highlighting vitamin D3 as a potential target for further research in understanding this condition.

This case report emphasizes that lipedematous scalp and lipedematous alopecia are not distinct diseases, highlighting the need to consider reversible causes of alopecia for effective treatment.

This study identified an association between premature hair greying and larger waist circumference among young healthy subjects.

Hair dye can cause serious scalp issues, including skull erosion.

This study found that 40.42% of undergraduate medical students aged under 25 had early canities, with grade I being the most common.
