This review discusses potential causes of alopecia and hair overgrowth in pediatric patients, detailing diagnostic techniques and treatments, but presents no new research findings.

The document reviews various hair and nail disorders, their causes, and treatments, emphasizing the need for proper diagnosis and the link between nail changes and systemic diseases.

Most hair loss in children is caused by a few common conditions, and it's important to diagnose these properly and support the child's mental health.

This guide provides a comprehensive approach to diagnosing periocular hair disorders, which can range from benign conditions to those posing serious health risks.

This index of Harper's Textbook of Pediatric Dermatology, Fourth Edition, provides no clinical results or new findings.

This handbook of dermatology provides a comprehensive practical manual for dermatologists, but reports no new research findings.

This study suggests genetic and clinical heterogeneity in keratosis pilaris atrophicans, with variations in inheritance patterns, severity, and response to treatment among 21 individuals observed.

This review discusses madarosis, its diverse causes, and suggests follicular unit transplantation as a useful treatment for scarring types, but reports no new clinical results.

Children's hair loss has many causes and requires careful diagnosis and personalized treatment, including emotional support.

In this study, researchers reported a 0.11% occurrence of congenital triangular alopecia, recommending surgical treatment for women but not for men due to later potential development of androgenic alopecia.

This article proposes two new categories of cicatricial alopecia—“unstable” and “stable”—and suggests surgical excision as preferred over hair transplantation, especially for unstable cases.

In this study, pediatric patients with overt polyautoimmunity frequently had systemic lupus erythematosus as an index disease, with clustering patterns revealing familial influence on autoimmune disease aggregation.

This review discusses surgical and future therapeutic options for cicatricial alopecia and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for more options for patients without active disease signs.

This study describes how avian-inspired imagery is used in dermatology to help clinicians and patients identify and communicate skin conditions, using familiar terms like "chicken skin" and "fried egg" to capture specific visual patterns and clinical features.

This study found that disrupting Sox21 in developing teeth leads to severe enamel hypoplasia, regional osteoporosis, and abnormal hair formation, with impaired dental epithelial differentiation and regulation of hair follicle cell fate.

This study reports that gastrointestinal problems, such as intractable diarrhea and enterocolitis, can dominate the clinical course of patients with Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome and may occur before hematological and immunological symptoms.

This study reports two new cases of Gomez-Lopez-Hernandez syndrome and suggests that trigeminal anesthesia and/or partial scalp alopecia may be key criteria for diagnosis.

This case report describes a man diagnosed with Hoffman syndrome, characterized by muscle hypertrophy and weakness due to severe hypothyroidism, who had an excellent response to thyroid hormone replacement.

"D-CHRAMPS syndrome" is a newly identified condition with multiple severe symptoms.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with Parry–Romberg syndrome displayed left-sided facial atrophy and subclinical central nervous system involvement detectable by neuroimaging, suggesting that even symptom-free cases may benefit from systematic brain evaluations.

In this study, researchers identified novel LMNA mutations in patients with atypical progeroid syndrome, revealing clinical features distinct from other similar disorders, but unrelated to mutant prelamin A accumulation.

In this case report, a 20-year-old male with tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome was found to have a de novo frameshift mutation in the TRPS1 gene, highlighting the challenges in diagnosing this rare disorder.

This report on a 37-year-old patient found that trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type I is associated with hair abnormalities, including fine and brittle hair with altered biomechanical properties, but no treatment exists for the hair defects.

Patients with Shwachman-Diamond syndrome often get misdiagnosed due to a wide range of symptoms, including immune system problems and bone abnormalities.

This study observed that among patients with Myhre syndrome, those with the SMAD4 gene variant p.Arg496Cys experienced fewer symptoms like hearing loss, while those with the p.Ile500Thr variant often had severe aortic hypoplasia, highlighting the diverse symptom progression and genetic factors of this rare condition.

This case report describes a 19-year-old with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome developing alopecia areata totalis, discussing potential connections and treatment options like methylprednisolone pulse therapy, but reports no new clinical results.
