This paper reports a case of severe hypertrichosis in the external ear canal due to minoxidil use, leading to chronic otitis externa and hearing loss.

This case study reported a postmenopausal woman with a testosterone-secreting ovarian tumor that was not detected through standard clinical or radiological examination but was found via biopsy.

This review discusses the cosmetic and health implications of hirsutism and highlights its potential link to serious underlying disorders, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This study associated ivory-colored areas observed through trichoscopy with steroid deposits in the dermis among patients with steroid-induced atrophy on the scalp.

This case describes a 14-year-old girl whose symptoms of hirsutism and virilization were attributed to an ovarian Sertoli-Leydig tumor, with improvement following surgical removal.

Patients with Focal Dermal Hypoplasia often experience skin, nail, hair, and bone issues, and may benefit from calcium and vitamin D supplements.

This case report highlights the challenge of differentiating between non-classical adrenal hyperplasia and steroid cell tumors of the ovary in a patient presenting with hyperandrogenism.

This study suggests that heparan sulfate is crucial for regulating hair follicle formation, cycling, and gland morphogenesis, with its ablation leading to continuous hair growth and increased gland activity in mice.

In this study, researchers explored ear pinna development in two rodent species and identified that BMP5 plays a crucial role in chondroblast proliferation but not in their initial specification, with implications for understanding tissue differentiation and potential impacts on reconstructive surgery.

This case report describes a 63-year-old woman with hyperandrogenism due to an ectopic adrenal gland adenoma on the ovaries, successfully treated with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

FOL-005 peptide may help treat excessive hair growth safely.

This study found that Krox20 is overexpressed in scar fibroblasts and may play a role in scar formation by upregulating genes involved in tissue remodeling and wound healing.

This article reviews various aspects of dental socket healing after tooth extraction, including grafting techniques and their role in dental implant placement, and reports no new clinical results.

Trauma can cause fat inflammation and abnormal hair growth.

In this case study, a 34-year-old woman with a rare presentation of pilomatrixoma involving alopecia and skin hypopigmentation showed no improvement in these symptoms despite a 3-month trial of topical steroid treatment, highlighting a potential association between pilomatrixoma and microinflammation.

This study found that cortisol increases mac25/IGFBP-rP1 expression in osteoblast-enriched cells from fetal rat calvariae, indicating transcriptional regulation which may influence IGF and insulin effects in bone.

This study found that areola formation in mice requires a combination of pregnancy hormones and mechanical strain, with individual stimuli causing only modest changes in epidermal proliferation and connective tissue remodeling.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had higher serum osteopontin levels and more eye abnormalities compared to healthy controls, although visual acuity was not affected.

This study observed that acne was strongly associated with higher BMI, alopecia, menstrual dysfunction, positive familial history, and overuse of sweet and fatty foods among dermatology patients.

This case report describes a 65-year-old postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism caused by a non-malignant ovarian Leydig cell tumor, which is a rare cause of virilization.

This study describes five patients with porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus, a rare skin disorder, highlighting its clinical features and proposing a new encompassing term for related conditions.

In this case report, the coexistence of hypercalcemia and androgen excess in a postmenopausal woman was linked to primary hyperparathyroidism and a suspected androgen-secreting ovarian tumor, underscoring the need for a comprehensive diagnostic approach to identify overlapping endocrine disorders.

This archived website overview discusses Bioline International's role in reducing the knowledge gap by hosting peer-reviewed journals from developing countries but presents no new research findings.

This case study discussed a postmenopausal female with androgenic alopecia and hirsutism due to a Leydig cell tumor, suggesting the importance of further workup in women with severe hirsutism or androgenic alopecia.

This study found that rete ridge morphogenesis in mammalian skin is directed by a BMP-dependent developmental program, which is evolutionarily distinct from other known pathways controlling the development of hair follicles, sweat glands, and fingerprint ridges.

This study found that keloid tissues exhibit epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related changes and alterations in gene expression, implicating these processes in the pathogenesis of keloids.

In this case report, a 54-year-old woman with hirsutism was found to have a benign ovarian cystadenofibroma, which resolved after surgery, highlighting the importance of evaluating postmenopausal women for ovarian causes of androgen excess.

This study found that inhibiting JAK signaling can unexpectedly trigger hair growth in resting-phase mouse skin, implicating JAK-STAT pathways and oncostatin M in maintaining hair follicle stem cell quiescence.

This overview describes the Dermatologic Surgery journal's extensive focus on cosmetic and reconstructive procedures but reports no new research findings.
