This study describes tumor necrosis factor inhibitor-associated psoriatic alopecia, highlighting the distinctive histologic feature of sebaceous lobule atrophy, which is potentially reversible and helps differentiate it from idiopathic psoriatic alopecia.

This review of 1360 scalp biopsy specimens revealed that 12.5% of cases involved multifactorial alopecia, highlighting the diagnostic complexity of multiple forms of alopecia present in single biopsies.

The SAFE System may reduce hair transplant transection rates but has been critiqued for not being as minimally invasive as claimed.

Hair follicles stored in a special medium and certain types of grafts have higher survival and growth rates after transplantation.

Hair follicles stored in a special medium had the highest survival rate, and "plucked" follicles and follicular units showed better growth after transplant.

The document concludes that rib-sparing techniques in breast reconstruction have limited benefits, sentinel lymph node biopsy is needed for desmoplastic melanoma, certain hair preservation methods improve graft survival, partial turbinectomy effectively reduces nasal obstruction, nipple shields with irrigation may reduce capsular contracture, and thicker malignant melanomas have a higher risk of non-skin cancers.

This study found that in Pomeranian dogs with alopecia X, dermoscopic evaluations can supplement diagnoses, and transverse skin biopsy sections better assess hair follicle density and identify growth arrest phases compared to longitudinal sections.

This study found multipotent progenitors in sweat ducts that become unipotent after sweat gland development, highlighting distinct regenerative capabilities in adult glandular skin stem cell populations.

This review discusses various nanoparticles and nanoemulsions being investigated for transdermal drug delivery and reports no clinical results; it highlights potential applications in treating alopecia, wound healing, psoriasis, and melanoma.

This article reviews the current ACR classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting their dermatologic limitations, and proposes guidelines for a study to update these criteria.

This review discusses current experimental approaches for regenerating human hair follicles using tissue engineering and isolated cells, but reports no successful strategies with adult cells yet found.

This study demonstrated that intact adult human dermal papillae can induce hair growth when implanted into mouse hair follicles, highlighting their potential for advancing hair follicle biology and therapeutic approaches.

In this study, transcriptome analysis suggested that lipid metabolism and apoptosis may be key factors influencing hair length differences between short-hair and long-hair rabbits.

This study found that a new topical nitric oxide gel significantly accelerated burn wound healing in mice by enhancing re-epithelialization, hair follicle regeneration, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis compared to controls.

This review discusses the historical, legal, and clinical aspects of electrolysis and thermolysis, highlighting potential risks due to the lack of standardized training for electrologists in the United States, but reports no new clinical results.

In a rat model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, this study found that low-level laser treatment significantly accelerated hair regrowth without affecting the efficacy of chemotherapy.

In this animal study, researchers found that cedrol, a constituent from Platycladus orientalis, significantly promoted hair growth in a dose-dependent manner in female C57BL/6 mice, surpassing results from blank control and 2% minoxidil groups over 21 days.

This study suggests that hairless dogs' skin shows sensitivity to topical corticosteroids, highlighting their potential as a model for studying the efficacy and adverse effects of these treatments on skin.

This study found that cyclophosphamide-induced hair follicle damage in C3H mice could be remodelled into intact anagen hair follicles with topical cyclosporin A, especially in anagen IV stage follicles.

In this randomized study, ViviScal® significantly outperformed a fish extract in increasing non-vellus hair count and achieving clinical and histological improvement in young males with hereditary androgenic alopecia.

This study found that low-level laser therapy with an 830-nm wavelength most significantly stimulated hair growth in rats, compared to other wavelengths tested.

In this study, lecithin-based microparticle formulations of minoxidil showed enhanced skin penetration and comparable hair growth effectiveness to commercial products in mice, while minimizing skin irritation often seen with standard minoxidil solutions.

This study found that α-13′-carboxychromanol significantly accelerated wound healing and improved tissue quality in a mouse model, especially when delivered with bacterial nanocellulose under diabetic conditions.

In this study, oil body-bound oleosin-rhFGF-10 was more efficiently absorbed through the skin and enhanced wound healing and hair growth in mice, compared to prokaryotically-expressed rhFGF-10.

This commentary honors Shoji Okuda's pioneering but overlooked work on hair transplantation techniques from 1939, detailing comprehensive experiments that were rediscovered and translated into English decades later.

This study observed that a topical liposome formulation of a 5‐α‐reductase inhibitor effectively reduced the size of treated sebaceous glands and induced apoptosis in a hamster model, suggesting potential benefits for acne treatment.

This study observed that hairless HRS/J mice were resistant to Bacillus anthracis infection at the skin's surface, suggesting resistance may be due to increased dermal neutrophils rather than non-functional hair follicles.

This study found that menopausal status and hormone therapy significantly affect the histology and gene expression of the introitus, with post-menopausal women showing notable tissue remodeling associated with vaginal atrophy.

This study found that using a wearable low-level light therapy device for photodynamic therapy significantly reduced actinic keratosis lesions and improved quality of life in patients with AK of the scalp.
