In this study, researchers developed a new solution called CapilGen, showing it increased hair quantity by 35% and density by 25% in clinical trials without side effects, providing a potentially safe and effective treatment for baldness.

This case report describes a 22-year-old male with hair casts on scalp and body hair, associated with androgenetic alopecia, also affecting his sister as pseudonits.

This study highlights that dissecting cellulitis of the scalp affects a diverse racial population and is associated with male sex, metabolic dysfunction, and psychiatric comorbidities, challenging its traditional characterization as primarily a disorder of Black men.

This case report identifies a 32-year-old woman with undiagnosed PHPT-1a who exhibited complete pseudo-anodontia and persistent patchy alopecia areata, suggesting these may be new nonclassical features of a GNAS pathogenic variant.

This case report describes a six-year-old child with congenital biotinidase deficiency whose symptoms, including breathlessness, alopecia, and hearing loss, were reversed with biotin supplementation.

This case report describes a young man diagnosed with encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis who had unique bilateral optic disc colobomas, a previously unreported association with this syndrome.

In this rat study, subcutaneous injections of hydrogen peroxide and cumene hydroperoxide appeared to completely prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss by inducing cell cycle arrest, suggesting a novel approach to help cancer patients maintain their quality of life during treatment.

The study observed unexpected blue fluorescence in urine linked to salicylate metabolite presence, suggesting "aspirin addiction" in patients with unexplained hair loss, potentially tied to chronic disease or hair production interference.

This case report highlights that Sheehan syndrome, though rare in developed countries, can occur and underscores the importance of detailed history taking to uncover the cause of atypical presentations.

This case report describes a woman with Sheehan's syndrome, leading to severe combined systolic and diastolic heart failure, where treatment improved cardiac function.

This study found that disrupted cholesterol homeostasis in scalp samples from cicatricial alopecia patients hinders hair regrowth by affecting hair follicle stem cell markers, with resulting effects confirmed in vitro and in animal models.

This study documented an increased health care burden due to post-COVID conditions in the 6 months following the acute phase of infection, providing vital evidence for resource planning.

In this N=1 case study, a long-term zero-carbohydrate diet adult male experienced an increase in fasting plasma ascorbic acid from 0.1 mg/dL to 2.0 mg/dL within two months of daily 1 g vitamin C supplementation, along with subjective health improvements.

This article discusses the case of a patient on long-term renal dialysis with high serum vitamin A levels likely due to inadequate removal during dialysis, highlighting the need to reassess vitamin A supplementation in such patients.

This case study reports the clinical features of triple H syndrome in a 25-year-old man, including ACTH deficiency, alopecia universalis, and anterograde amnesia, which were improved with hydrocortisone treatment.

This report highlights the diagnosis of a giant congenital blue nevus with secondary cutis verticis gyrata in a 20-year-old Asian male, underscoring the need for clinicopathologic correlation due to overlapping features with cerebriform intradermal nevi.

This case report highlights how persistent hyperphosphatemia, albeit often overlooked, can precede clinical acromegaly symptoms in women, complicating diagnosis due to overlapping features with oral contraceptive use and polycystic ovary syndrome.

This case report challenges the traditional view by documenting reversible vision loss following scalp injections of platelet-rich plasma, attributed to an inflammatory or microvascular event, treatable with corticosteroids.

This study found that acid regulation of the TRPV3 channel can inhibit its function from outside the cell while facilitating it from inside, providing insights into skin barrier and disorder mechanisms related to tissue acidosis.

In this study, researchers found that a cold atmospheric plasma-activated hydrogel containing interleukin-2 significantly enhanced hair regeneration in a depilated mouse model, promoting larger hair follicles and faster hair growth phase transition, suggesting it as a potential treatment for hair loss.

This review discusses the classification and treatment of ejaculatory dysfunction, outlining both pharmacotherapy and behavioral therapy as primary interventions, but does not present new clinical findings.

This study found that deoxycorticosterone-derived neurosteroids modulate GABA A receptor function and may influence stress-induced changes in seizure susceptibility by elevating seizure thresholds in animal models.

In this study, ultrastructural examination of hair in children treated with valproic acid showed a normal hair surface and cuticular pattern, despite reported hair changes with the drug.

In this study, valproic acid treatment was associated with reduced biotinidase activity and improved skin lesions after biotin supplementation in children with seizures.

This study reports previously unreported nail features in Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, specifically recurrent onychomadesis of all 20 nails linked to systemic illness.

This study reports a case of chylous peritonitis due to acute pancreatitis diagnosed intraoperatively in a 23-year-old man presenting with abdominal pain and milky-like fluid effusion.

This review discusses the conflicting perspectives on the relationship between hyperprolactinemia and polycystic ovarian syndrome, emphasizing the need for further evaluation before diagnosing PCOS in the presence of hyperprolactinemia.

This study found that the dehydroepiandrosterone hydroxylating enzyme system in hair follicles is similar to the liver monooxygenase system, sharing characteristics such as inhibition by carbon monoxide and dependency on NADPH.

This study found that valproic acid is effective in controlling absence seizures and can improve other seizure types, but 20% of patients experience mostly transient adverse reactions.
