This description of dystrophy hypotrichosis associated with juvenile macular dystrophy provides an overview of this rare disorder characterized by short hair from birth and progressive loss of central vision but reports no new findings.

This study demonstrated immunological cross-reactivity between mycobacterial heat-shock protein 65 and human epidermal cytokeratin 1/2, suggesting that this cross-reactive epitope might play a role in skin diseases.

This study found that the HoxC gene cluster is crucial for the development of hair and nails in mice, with key regulation by two mammalian-specific enhancers.

This case report discusses a 15-year-old boy with pachyonychia congenita, identifying a keratin 17 gene mutation, and highlights the need for a national registry and more accessible genetic testing in India.

This case report details a 72-year-old man who experienced a lichenoid eruption and alopecia linked to captopril, which resolved after stopping the drug, suggesting a possible immunological mechanism.

In a case report, this study identified a new genetic variant in a six-year-old girl from Saudi Arabia with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, expanding the understanding of the genetic spectrum of this rare condition in the region.

Cortexolone 17a-propionate may be an effective new treatment for hair loss.

This study identified nine novel KRTAP5 family genes associated with human hair formation, demonstrating preferential expression in hair roots and suggesting their role in hair development.

This study found that ALRN-6924, a clinical-stage dual inhibitor, can selectively protect human scalp hair follicles from paclitaxel-induced toxicity and damage by inducing transient cell cycle arrest in healthy cells without affecting cancer cells, potentially reducing chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This study found that individuals with heterozygous truncation-type variants in the *DSP* gene exhibit lower skin temperature and higher transepidermal water loss, with specific microscopic skin changes and pseudomonilethrix.

This study found that mutations in the PADI3 gene, which is important for hair shaft formation, may contribute to central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia among patients.

This is an acknowledgment of coverage for the American Society of Hair Restoration Surgery's third annual conference, with no new research findings reported.

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.

In this case report, treatment with corticosteroids improved both clinical symptoms and hormonal imbalances in a 27-year-old woman diagnosed with non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study introduces the MHS Hair Restoration Protocol, a systems-biology model targeting hair follicle health through the gut-microbiome-endocannabinoidome axis and innovative topical treatments, emphasizing a holistic approach to pattern hair loss.

This study found low concordance between distal and proximal hair cortisol concentrations during early pregnancy, particularly when measured with different assay methods.

Scalp cooling significantly reduces hair loss in chemotherapy patients.

In this study, cross-section trichometry was found to be a precise method for measuring hair loss in chemotherapy patients, but marking the measurement site on the scalp is not always necessary.

In this case report, a 9-year-old boy with diffuse alopecia areata showed improvement with topical diphencyprone immunotherapy, suggesting it as a safe and effective treatment option in pediatric cases of alopecia areata resistant to other therapies.

This study suggests that DPCP treatment can be effective and safe for severe alopecia areata in children, with maintenance therapy potentially reducing relapse rates.

This article reviews DPCP's use as a topical immunotherapy for alopecia areata and discusses its suggested mechanism, but reports no clinical results.

A new topical finasteride formulation effectively promotes hair growth with fewer side effects.

This study reported that while lichen planus was not significantly linked to hepatitis C virus infection, pruritus, dry skin, and hair loss were more common in HCV patients post-interferon treatment.

This study found that off-pump coronary surgery significantly reduces in-hospital morbidity compared to on-pump surgery without affecting midterm outcomes in the first 1-3 years after the procedure.

This study highlights the phenotypic variability in 5 patients with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome carrying the c.436delC mutation, suggesting a broader range of clinical presentations than previously recognized.

A specific gene mutation causes severe skin and nail issues and hair loss.

This abstract discusses the exclusion of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease patients from hair transplantation candidates and highlights the potential challenge of obtaining detailed medical histories in busy clinical settings, without reporting new results.

This study found that age is the most significant risk factor for hemorrhagic cystitis after hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation, with additional risk factors including cyclophosphamide-based prophylaxis and, among male recipients, prostatic hyperplasia.

This report announces that the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery received Accreditation with Commendation.
