In this case report, researchers describe a 13-year-old phenotypic female with 46,XY karyotype, previously misdiagnosed with androgen insensitivity syndrome, who was later identified to have 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3 deficiency, underscoring the importance of genetic and hormonal tests for accurate diagnosis of sex development disorders.

This study explored the relationship between BMI percentiles and clinical severity in pediatric patients with different hemoglobin genotypes, finding significant BMI differences and associations with pain frequency, particularly noting that patients with HbSS experienced more pain than those with HbSC.

This report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, indicating a new genetic variant associated with the disorder.

This review describes recent advances in the study of epidermal stem cells and their importance in regenerative medicine and skin tissue engineering, but provides no new clinical results.

This study suggests that SOCS3 treatment may effectively inhibit alopecia areata by suppressing CD8+ T cell activity and IFN-γ production.

This phase 2a trial evaluated Samcyprone for common wart treatment and found that while a sensitization reaction is necessary for therapeutic response, its level does not predict wart clearance.

This study identified a 14,883 bp genomic deletion affecting the Plcd1 and Vill genes as likely responsible for the abnormal phenotype observed in snthr-1Bao mice.

This study suggests that Hejie Shengfa Decoction may help treat alopecia areata by influencing immune and inflammatory pathways, regulating apoptosis, and enhancing the follicular microenvironment.

This report describes a child and his father with hereditary hypotrichosis simplex, an uncommon isolated form of hair loss, with no other ectodermal or systemic abnormalities noted.

This study demonstrated that CD19-CAR T cell therapy may promote structural regeneration in the skin of systemic sclerosis patients, as evidenced by histological improvements and fibroblast population changes, suggesting its potential for tissue remodeling in fibrotic diseases.

In this study, a biofunctional hydrogel incorporating mesenchymal stem cell-derived small extracellular vesicles promoted wound healing and reduced scar tissue formation by modulating the immune response in a mouse skin injury model.

The method effectively analyzes human hair proteins, especially nonfilamentous ones.

This article reviews the unique management skills necessary for building a successful hair restoration surgery team and contrasts them with managing a general cosmetic surgery practice, without reporting new research findings.

This study found that hippocampus sparing whole brain radiation therapy (HS-WBRT) using multi-field intensity modulated radiation therapy prevents alopecia without compromising cognitive function compared to traditional whole brain radiation therapy.

This study found that the sharp scissor technique in hair transplant surgery resulted in a lower hair transection rate without significantly increasing operation time compared to tissue spreader and skin hooks techniques.

Dermatoscopy helps track scar changes and guide treatment.

The modified S pattern for scalp reduction is effective for removing more bald scalp and hiding scars in hair restoration.

Dermatologic surgery has greatly improved with new techniques over the years.

This article describes protocols for isolating and expanding human epidermal neural crest stem cells and discusses their potential for cell-based therapies in regenerative medicine, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the potential of intralesional cidofovir as a treatment for SCC and reports no systemic toxicity, but highlights surgical excision as the most reliable curative option.

This study presents a rare case where a patient with a heterozygous mutation in the HTRA1 gene, typically considered non-pathogenic, exhibited severe symptoms and typical features of CARASIL, expanding the understanding of this condition.

This study reports that hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells significantly reduced hair loss and inflammation in alopecia areata models, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach.

This study found that human embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells differentiated into specific bulge stem cells and successfully formed new hair follicles when transplanted with mouse dermal cells in immunodeficient mice.

This study showed that exosomes from hyaluronic acid-primed induced mesenchymal stem cells promote hair growth by enhancing proliferation and migration of hair follicle dermal papilla cells and modulating key growth factors and signaling pathways, potentially counteracting the effects of DHT-induced hair loss.

This study discusses the involvement of Hedgehog signaling in various human cancers, detailing different mechanisms of pathway activation and highlighting the potential for therapeutic targeting through pathway inhibition.

This case report suggests that exacerbations of alopecia areata in a 40-year-old woman may be associated with sodium tetradecyl sulphate foam sclerotherapy treatments for varicose veins.
