In this study, researchers found multiple somatic mutations and copy number variations in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, providing novel insights into its potential genetic mechanisms.

In this study of 50 rural children with tinea capitis, 64% had the non-inflammatory type, while 28% had the inflammatory type, with most cases showing positive results in KOH examinations.

This case report described a misdiagnosed kerion in a 10-year-old child initially treated as a bacterial abscess, leading to unnecessary surgery and residual scarring alopecia.

In this case report, a 21-year-old male was observed to have primary essential cutis verticis gyrata, a condition characterized by the excessive formation of scalp folds resembling cerebral gyri, without any additional comorbidities.

This study found that diagnosing nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia in women based solely on serum 17OHP measurements can lead to false positives, suggesting the need for urinary steroid profiles and genetic testing for confirmation.

This case study reports that a 6-year-old girl with pediculosis capitis experienced scalp pruritus, pustules, crusting, excoriation, and cicatricial alopecia but showed a good clinical response to permethrin and antibiotics, with no lice detected afterward.

This review discusses the challenges in diagnosing tinea capitis and highlights the need for laboratory confirmation and systemic treatment due to the limited effectiveness of topical antifungals; no new clinical results are presented.

This case report describes a 33-year-old Indian male with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome who experienced complete symptom recovery within 5 months after starting a high protein diet, proton pump inhibitors, and zinc-vitamin supplements.

This study demonstrated that the glycolytic inhibitor 2-deoxy-D-glucose enhances antiseizure effects by potentiating extrasynaptic tonic GABAergic inhibition through neurosteroidogenesis in hippocampal slices.

This review explores pseudo-Cushing's states that mimic Cushing's syndrome but do not involve elevated cortisol, and it presents no new research findings.

This study suggests that human scalp hair follicles express erythropoietin and its receptor, up-regulating receptor expression under hypoxic conditions, and may mimic another hypothalamus–pituitary axis equivalent involving the TRH-TSH system.

Corkscrew hair may be a new sign for quickly diagnosing scalp fungus in black children.

This case report describes a pregnant woman diagnosed with Cushing Syndrome, likely due to an adrenal tumor, whose condition worsened during hospitalization, resulting in heart failure, sepsis, and shock.

This study found that CAP1 plays a significant role in reducing ammonium toxicity in Arabidopsis thaliana by promoting shoot growth and maintaining reactive oxygen species homeostasis.

This review describes the use of carbon dioxide for aesthetic treatments like skin rejuvenation and scar reduction but does not present new clinical findings.

This study found that hair follicle stem cell-derived secretome mitigated cell death, apoptosis, and inflammation while upregulating neurotrophic factors in astrocytes exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation, an in vitro ischemic stroke model, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits in stroke recovery.

This case report describes Halo Scalp Ring, a rare type of non-scarring alopecia in newborns, emphasizing the importance of proper diagnosis to avoid unnecessary tests and timely referral for potential hair restoration if scarring alopecia develops.

Carbamazepine may cause reversible nail detachment.

Scalp cooling significantly reduces hair loss in chemotherapy patients.

The study demonstrates that acetate treatment may alleviate PCOS-associated depression in rats by reducing neuroinflammation and modifying epigenetic changes in the brain.

This article reviews the pathophysiology of chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports that scalp cooling can reduce hair loss by 50% in patients with early breast cancer receiving chemotherapy, without compromising survival or increasing scalp metastasis risk.

This study suggests that young women with low prolactin levels may face higher cardiometabolic risk, and reducing cabergoline dosage reversed related metabolic disturbances.

This paper discusses the introduction and advantages of an Insurance-Based Billing Model for scalp cooling devices in the USA, which can enhance access to this treatment for reducing chemotherapy-induced alopecia, particularly benefiting underserved and disadvantaged populations.

Selective chemical epilation effectively treats tinea capitis without harmful side effects.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy shows promise for multiple sclerosis, but skepticism and funding issues limit tech use in clinics, and outdated single-drug cancer treatments may cause unnecessary side effects.

This case report highlights a rare instance of esophageal carcinoma in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, emphasizing the importance of endoscopic surveillance for malignant gastrointestinal tumors in these patients.

CaBP1 and CaBP2 are necessary for proper hearing and neurotransmission in the ear's inner hair cells.

CaBP1 and CaBP2 are necessary for proper hearing and neurotransmission in the ear's inner hair cells.

This case study observed hair shedding in an 8 1/2-year-old girl treated with carbamazepine, which ceased after stopping the medication.

In this study, two-thirds of patients with persistent chronic daily headache significantly improved with divalproex sodium treatment, while liver functions remained unaffected.
