This review explores how androgens and growth hormone influence the development of terminal hairs and sebaceous glands, attributing variability in hirsutism and acne to differing genetic sensitivities to androgens, but reports no new experimental data.

This paper presents a collection of unusual cases observed over seven years, with detailed histological descriptions but no definitive diagnoses, aiming to encourage further discussion and understanding of the disease process.

Many women in Turkey have hirsutism, according to the research group's findings.

This study found that among military personnel treated for respiratory diseases, an accelerated transition to telogen hair loss was associated with lower hemoglobin levels.

This study found that covalently binding antimicrobial agents to hair shafts provided antibacterial activity against dandruff and odor-associated bacteria, which remained effective even after several washes.

This review discusses the unique characteristics and taxonomy of Malassezia yeasts and examines current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in veterinary medicine; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that trichohyalin is expressed in cancerous tongue epithelial cells, while plectin-1 expression may indicate malignancy.

This case report is the first to associate HAIR-AN syndrome with polycystic ovaries, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and several metabolic conditions in a 21-year-old woman, emphasizing early diagnosis and management.

In this study, researchers found a strong association between premature graying of hair and deficiencies in vitamin D and B12, hypothyroidism, and deranged iron profiles, along with higher stress, altered appetite, smoking, and sleep pattern issues, significantly impacting quality of life.

This report describes a rare case of Graham-Little–Piccardi–Lassueur syndrome in a 46-year-old male, highlighting its typical features such as scarring alopecia and lichenoid follicular eruptions.

This study conducted among medical students in Saudi Arabia found a 37.2% prevalence of premature hair graying and associated it with smoking, a keto diet, hair coloring, and family history, while suggesting that lifestyle changes may reduce its impact.

This article suggests that scalp erythrasma caused by Corynebacterium minutissimum may be underdiagnosed and that oral antibiotics used for other conditions could reduce its risk.

This study reports two cases of bubble hair deformity in young men caused by prolonged exposure to bathroom heating lamps during showers, suggesting that maintaining a safe distance from heating devices may prevent this thermal injury to hair.

This study found that body dysmorphic disorder is about 10 times more prevalent among patients with hair loss complaints compared to general dermatology patients, with a higher incidence in males.

This study identified that biotin ingestion led to interference in immunoassay results, falsely indicating high testosterone and insulin levels in a 28-year-old female patient, thus complicating her clinical assessment and treatment planning until recognized and resolved.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia involves fungal dysbiosis, with significant depletion of the commensal yeast Malassezia and enrichment of opportunistic microbes, affected by host factors and geography.

This article discusses systemic diseases and syndromes associated with acne and provides no research results; the authors highlight the need for increased recognition of these conditions.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This study found that mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in epithelial cells is necessary for proper enamel formation and odontoblast differentiation in developing incisor teeth in K320E-Twinkle Epi mice.

This source discusses how the skin mycobiome, dominated by Malassezia fungi, may provide a unique niche that can be disrupted by environmental changes, potentially leading to the fungal pathogen C. auris overtaking Malassezia and predisposing individuals to severe infections.

This study conducted physical examinations on fifty women with hirsutism, focusing on virilization signs, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the medical and dental applications of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), highlighting their potential for improving drug delivery and providing biocompatible solutions for medical devices, but reports no new clinical results.

This review reports a notably higher prevalence and severity of alexithymia among dermatology patients than healthy controls, suggesting its consideration may enhance treatment outcomes and quality of life.

This study describes a genetic mutation in the desmoglein 4 gene linked to localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis in Pakistani families, showing similarities to animal models with similar hair loss conditions.

This case report describes a new family with autosomal recessive hypotrichosis simplex with woolly hair, suggesting the disorder may be underreported due to misdiagnosis.

This report identifies a novel mutation in the ST14 gene in a female with autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis, highlighting similar features to previously reported cases.

In this population-based study, researchers reported that nearly half of Greek adults experienced at least one skin condition in the past year, with significant impacts on quality of life, work decisions, and perceptions of stigmatization.

In this case report, the researchers highlight a possible association between myotonic dystrophy type 1 and multiple tongue hemangiomas, and emphasize that patients with this condition can experience exacerbated respiratory muscle weakness and risk of respiratory failure even with epidural anesthesia.

In this study, hirsutism in women with PCOS was strongly associated with hyperandrogenism and metabolic abnormalities, while acne and androgenic alopecia were not effective markers for hyperandrogenism.

This study found that the gut microbiota in alopecia areata patients showed distinct dysbiosis, with an overrepresentation of Firmicutes and underrepresentation of Bacteroides, aligning with patterns seen in other autoimmune disorders.
