This narrative review suggests that intermediate filaments like vimentin and keratin play a significant role in various stages of viral infection, presenting potential antiviral intervention targets.

This article discusses intraoperative floppy iris syndrome during cataract surgery and highlights the importance of awareness and preoperative documentation of its risk factors, emphasizing a multidisciplinary approach to management.

This study found an IFIS incidence rate of 3.18% among cataract surgeries in a Chinese hospital and identified reserpine, clozapine, and post-panretinal photocoagulation as new risk factors.

This case report suggests a possible association between long-term finasteride use for male pattern baldness and the development of cataracts and intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome in a patient.

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.

In this report, a unique female presentation of IFAP syndrome is described, featuring musculoskeletal contractures but no photophobia, highlighting the importance of early detection and multidisciplinary care to improve outcomes and prevent disability.

In this study, targeting the expression of a keratin KRT5/KRT8 chimeric cDNA in keratin-deficient mice partially restored structural defects in epidermal cells, but did not fully normalize skin health.

This study found that medications including benzodiazepines, quetiapine, and certain alpha-blockers, along with hypertension and short axial length, were independently associated with an increased risk of Intraoperative Floppy Iris Syndrome during cataract surgery.

This review describes techniques to manage intraoperative floppy iris syndrome linked to alpha-1 blocker use in cataract surgery, highlighting the need for patient disclosure of medication use but reports no new clinical results.

This case study describes the successful use of recombinant feline interferon-omega in managing feline chronic gingivostomatitis syndrome in cats with type II diabetes, where long-acting corticosteroids are contraindicated.

Terrestrial vertebrates have balanced keratin gene clusters, unlike teleost fish.

Hair follicles form hard α-keratin filaments in four steps, showing structural differences.

In this study, the Instant Follicular Hair Unit Transplant technique demonstrated superior hair growth compared to conventional FUE in patients with androgenetic alopecia, although it requires a steeper learning curve for surgeons.

This study found that current use of benzodiazepines, α1-blockers (like tamsulosin, alfuzosin, terazosin), finasteride, and possibly rivastigmine is associated with increased risk of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome in cataract surgery patients.

This announcement explains the Fellow designation for hair restoration surgeons meeting specific educational criteria, without reporting new research findings.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl with IFAP syndrome who showed good improvement in cutaneous symptoms after one month of acitretin treatment.

This case report suggests that oral finasteride, used for benign prostatic hyperplasia, may be associated with intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome during cataract surgery.

This case report describes an 18-year-old male with IFAP syndrome, confirmed by total hair loss, severe photophobia, and characteristic skin changes, marking a rare presentation of the condition.

This report presents a case of IFAP syndrome with the typical symptoms of alopecia universalis, severe photophobia, and follicular ichthyosis, but provides no additional clinical findings or conclusions.

This study used fibre optic confocal imaging to visualize subsurface structures in live mouse skin, revealing cellular details and blood vessel networks that dynamic events could be studied in vivo.

This article reviews IFAP syndrome, an X-linked genetic disorder characterized by ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that intermittent treatment with FTI lonafarnib and sulforaphane may be a promising therapeutic approach for children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, as it improved the cellular phenotype.

This review discusses essential oils for androgenetic alopecia and hair growth but reports that few robust clinical trials currently support their effectiveness; the authors call for more research.

This study found that tofacitinib may be effective for treating pediatric rheumatic diseases, with especially promising results in patients with autoinflammatory diseases, arthritis and alopecia, and juvenile dermatomyositis.

In this case report, a woman with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa showed significant improvements in both conditions after six months of treatment with tofacitinib, a Janus Kinase inhibitor, with no recurrence or adverse events noted during a two-year follow-up.

This case report suggests that tofacitinib may effectively manage symptoms of AGS7 in a patient with an IFIH1 mutation, though further studies are needed to confirm its long-term safety and efficacy.

This meta-analysis reports that male sex, hypertension, tamsulosin, finasteride, benzodiazepines, and antipsychotics are significantly associated with increased risk of developing intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome during cataract surgery.

This article reviews the therapeutic use of interferons and other cytokines in various viral, tumorous, and inflammatory diseases, discussing their biological effects and potential future applications without presenting new experimental results.

This study found that tamsulosin, finasteride use, and aging are significantly associated with increased risk of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome during cataract surgery, while doxazosin does not appear to pose this risk.

This case study reports on a mother and daughter with ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia, noting consistent keratotic eruptions during the mother's pregnancies that improved postpartum.
