This review discusses risk factors for intraoperative floppy iris syndrome, emphasizing tamsulosin and other α1 blockers, and underscores the importance of preoperative screening to mitigate surgical complications, but it reports no new results.

This study found that photobiomodulation via LED light at 630 nm and 810 nm increased proliferation and mineralization in osteoblast-like cells, with comparable effects between the two wavelengths.

This study found that Finasteride treatment significantly reduced dihydrotestosterone and epidermal growth factor levels in benign prostatic hyperplasia tissue, particularly in the periurethral zone, while Flutamide decreased epidermal growth factor but not dihydrotestosterone.

This report describes two cases of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides with syringotropism, highlighting indolent progression despite the disease's typically aggressive nature, suggesting aggressive treatment might not be necessary.

This study developed a validated UV spectrophotometric method that can be used to accurately determine finasteride content in bulk and pharmaceutical formulations.

This study found that intradermal injections of autologous cell-free fat extract significantly improved the condition of postinflammatory hyperpigmentation patients, with high patient satisfaction and minimal adverse effects.

This study discovered that the gene Tfap2b identifies a melanocyte stem cell population in zebrafish, essential for regenerating melanocytes with multi-fate potential into adult pigment cells.

This case report discusses a rare instance of pseudolymphomatous folliculitis in a 19-year-old man, highlighting the challenge in diagnosing PLF due to its low clinical suspicion index and variable initial clinical diagnoses.

This report describes two cases of nevus lipomatosus superficialis with the unusual feature of dilated hair follicles, emphasizing the need for precise histopathological diagnosis to differentiate from similar conditions.

This study found that poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) synthesis in human skin varies by cell type and condition, with distinct patterns in psoriatic, cancerous, and normal tissues.

This study found that nestin-expressing unipotent progenitor cells capable of differentiating into outer root sheath keratinocytes are present during hair follicle development and in adult hair follicles.

This study suggests that LED light may promote the proliferation of human dermal papilla cells through the activation of specific signaling pathways.

This study validated an HPLC analytical method for evaluating fenasteride in commercial products, finding it to be sensitive, selective, and within acceptance criteria for specificity, precision, and stability, making it suitable for quality control testing.

In this study, researchers developed a versatile sprayable hydrogel that promotes wound healing in mice by facilitating rapid gelation, reducing inflammation, and accelerating tissue regeneration, with potential applications in chronic wound treatment and beyond.

This source evaluates the clinical effectiveness of 308 nm monochromatic excimer phototherapy in treating moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, noting that both laser and lamp methods show promise without significant risks.

This study found that certain concentrations of sodium fluoride accelerated apoptosis in cultured human hair follicles, while sodium selenite could counteract this toxicity in vitro.

This study examines the effects of excessive or prolonged exposure to blue light on retinal function and highlights its potential health implications, noting that both photoreceptor and intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) are particularly sensitive to blue wavelengths.

In this study, rabies virus antigens were detected in the outer root sheath of the follicle-sinus complex in the muzzle skin of rabid dogs, suggesting its usefulness as an alternative diagnostic specimen.

In this case report, a 24-year-old male with a translucent nodule in the left nasolabial fold was diagnosed with a solitary fibrofolliculoma with cystic changes upon histopathology, emphasizing the rarity and potential for misdiagnosis of these benign cutaneous tumors.

This study identified 15 Iranian patients with PLEC variants linked to various plectinopathies and highlighted a novel association between a homozygous nonsense variant in PLEC and a rare combination of disorders including EB pruriginosa, muscular dystrophy, and congenital myasthenic syndrome.

This report suggests that patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax should be evaluated for FLCN mutations, as they may indicate Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome and associated cancer risks.

This study found that low-fluence 1064 nm Q-switched Nd:YAG laser treatment effectively improved melasma in Asian patients without serious side effects, achieving an average improvement rate of 50-74%.

This study synthesized a temperature-sensitive hydrogel with strong antibacterial capabilities against S. aureus and E. coli, demonstrated via in vitro and in vivo tests, suggesting potential for antibiotic-free clinical applications when activated by near-infrared light.

This study suggests that hair analysis detecting trace elements like copper and iron may help in screening for diseases such as hepatocellular carcinoma and osteoporosis, due to altered element concentrations in patients.

This article presents a protocol for using mouse tail skin to study hair follicle stem cells, enabling visualization of calcium signaling and other cellular features in various conditions but reports no new research data.

This study demonstrated that visible light lightens blond hair more effectively than ultraviolet light, attacking melanin granules directly, whereas ultraviolet light primarily damages other hair tissues following washing.

This study found that combining topical eflornithine with triple diode laser treatments in women with hirsutism led to a more rapid and nearly complete reduction of terminal hair after 6 months, though the intergroup differences were not significant at 6- and 12-month follow-ups.

In this research, low-fluence light-based hair removal was explored, revealing its potential for at-home use with improvements in efficacy and safety, particularly for dark skin individuals, although further studies are necessary.

This study observed distinct dermoscopic features in pityriasis versicolor that could aid in its differentiation from similar skin disorders.
