This study observed that in a mouse wound model, honey significantly accelerated wound healing when compared to povidone-iodine treatment, suggesting its potential regenerative benefits.

This review discusses histologic findings in alopecia and emphasizes the importance of understanding normal follicular anatomy and cycles in transverse sections, without reporting new results.

The study concluded that careful examination is key to differentiate between lipidized fibrous histiocytoma and juvenile xanthogranuloma.

This source outlines the crucial steps and techniques for conducting scalp biopsies to diagnose cicatricial and non-cicatricial alopecias, emphasizing the importance of proper biopsy site selection, technique, and specimen processing to accurately interpret histopathology and understand related hair follicle disorders.

In this case study, a 44-year-old woman with an adrenal adenoma secreting both cortisol and androgens developed Cushing syndrome and significant virilization, but experienced major symptom improvement following surgical removal of the benign tumor.

This study observed that dermoscopy is a useful technique for distinguishing between infundibular keratinising acanthoma and follicular cysts in dogs, with specific dermoscopic features noted for each.

This article reviews trichoscopic techniques for diagnosing common hair loss conditions and presents a revised algorithm for identifying specific features of cicatricial and noncicatricial alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This report details a case of feline degenerative mucinotic mural folliculitis associated with feline immunodeficiency virus, identified using immunohistochemistry and immunoassay techniques.

In this study conducted from September to November 2023, researchers used trichoscopy to accurately diagnose cicatricial alopecias by revealing unique patterns, reducing the need for biopsies, and proving to be a valuable non-invasive diagnostic method.

In this study, the researchers developed and optimized a curcumin nanocrystal gel to enhance skin permeability, reporting improved dissolution properties and antiproliferative effects on cell lines, suggesting it as a promising topical delivery system.
