In this randomized controlled trial, intralesional vitamin D3 injections significantly improved localized alopecia areata symptoms compared to a saline placebo, with minimal and transient side effects, suggesting vitamin D3 as an effective treatment option without needing prior serum vitamin D level measurement.

This study found that repeated applications of both nonactivated and activated PRP in rats led to increased hypersensitivity to pain, which may be linked to elevated nerve growth factor levels and inflammatory mediators.

This case report describes a 37-year-old female with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed multiple eruptive dermatofibromas; lesions spontaneously resolved and highlight the rare coexistence of these conditions.

This case study observed that long-term itraconazole and budesonide use in a cystic fibrosis patient led to iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome due to inhibited metabolic clearance of budesonide, suggesting a need for regular adrenal insufficiency monitoring in such treatments.

This study found that niosomes significantly enhanced the skin deposition of retinoic acid while reducing its permeation, outperforming other tested nanoformulations.

In this study, researchers developed an acellular bioscaffold made from ovine tendon collagen with an antibacterial coating for treating skin wounds. They found that genipin crosslinking improves the scaffold's properties, and with plasma polymerisation, it enhances antibacterial activity, potentially benefiting wound healing.

This study found that scalp hair follicles had higher expression of cytokeratin 15 and distinct hair layers compared to other body regions, highlighting differences in hair follicle characteristics.

This study suggests that elevated levels of certain heavy metals, rather than zinc, may play a causative role in primary chronic telogen effluvium.

This study found that nearly half of those perceiving hair loss reported a significant impact on their quality of life, highlighting potential benefits of seeking medical advice for diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that females exposed to high cumulative doses of cyproterone acetate had a 6–20 fold increased risk of developing meningiomas compared to those on lower doses.

This study found that adding 10 mg/day of biotin to isotretinoin treatment for acne improved hair growth and maintained skin hydration, potentially reducing isotretinoin's mucocutaneous side effects.

This study found that the expression levels of nucleolin, nucleophosmin, and UBTF genes were lower in normal sites compared to hair loss sites in males with alopecia.

This study in Al-Taif, KSA, observed a higher-than-expected prevalence of alopecia areata, predominantly linked to autoimmune causes, with topical corticosteroids and systemic vitamins identified as the most effective treatment.

This study found that 66.3% of primary healthcare center attendees in the Jazan region reported experiencing hair loss, with the majority being female and most commonly identifying telogen effluvium.

This study found that pumpkin seed oil significantly improved hair parameters in females with pattern hair loss, demonstrating potential as a treatment comparable to minoxidil 5% foam.

Using tissue expanders for scalp reconstruction in patients with extensive Aplasia Cutis Congenita is effective and has minimal complications.

In this study, researchers explored the use of natural materials in scaffold construction for dental bone preservation, suggesting it could offer better biocompatibility and bone regeneration compared to traditional grafting methods.

In this animal study, finasteride significantly improved autism-like symptoms in rats by reversing biochemical markers and enhancing behaviors, potentially due to its antioxidant and anti-androgen effects.

This case report describes a 21-year-old male who experienced sertraline-induced diffuse hair loss that improved after discontinuing the medication.

This case study describes a 4-year-old girl's diagnosis of erythrokeratodermia variabilis despite various ineffective treatments, highlighting a rare skin condition with persistent symptoms.

This study reported that C. procera leaf extracts showed antifungal activity against several dermatophytes, with ethanol extracts demonstrating slightly greater efficacy than aqueous extracts.

This case study reports a rare instance of a subcutaneous abscess caused by Candida albicans infection in a 42-year-old Japanese woman following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

This case report describes the first known instance of hair loss linked to agomelatine, which resolved after the drug was discontinued.

In this study, mild adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccines were reported among vaccinated staff and students, with females experiencing more reactions than males.

This study demonstrated that intraoperative bioprinting using a bioink with human adipose-derived extracellular matrix and stem cells achieved successful reconstruction of full-thickness craniomaxillofacial skin defects in rats, promoting wound closure, adipogenesis, and hair follicle-like structure formation within two weeks.

In this study, approximately 24% of an Egyptian population reported hair loss following COVID-19 vaccination, confirmed through dermoscopy, although stress and infection were also possible contributing factors that need further investigation.

This study reported significant improvements in hair density, diameter, and patient satisfaction after using non-enzymatic stromal vascular fraction treatment for androgenic alopecia over six months.

This study reported that psoriasis patients with hypertension, androgenetic alopecia, or those using acitretin had higher COVID-19 hospitalization rates, while biologic and non-biologic treatments generally did not increase severe infection risk.

In this animal study, applying a combination of inositol-stabilized arginine silicate complex and magnesium biotinate promoted hair growth but not nail growth.

This case report describes a 19-year-old patient with systemic lupus and a composite heterozygosis SC with thalassemic component, highlighting the diagnostic challenge when symptoms of both conditions occur simultaneously.
