This study found that Alpha Lipoic Acid may help reduce cigarette smoke-induced skin damage in rats by improving collagen structure and reducing markers of oxidative stress.

In this study, the authors observed that the combined treatment group showed a significant increase in inflammatory cell density and a higher maximum tensile breaking force in tendon repair by the end of the second month.

This case report describes the first instance of facial and oral mucosal hyperpigmentation and acanthosis nigricans linked to testosterone therapy in a patient with idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

This study found that alopecia areata patients had a higher serum CRP/albumin ratio compared to healthy controls, and this elevation was linked to disease severity, indicating its potential as an inflammatory marker.

This case report describes a 20-year-old female with favus caused by T. schöenleinii, which initially improved with antifungal treatment but recurred due to poor adherence, underscoring favus as an ongoing health issue in Turkey.

This study found that administering lower doses of sodium pentaborate pentahydrate increased hair growth in rats via specific molecular pathways, while a higher dose suppressed these pathways and impaired hair growth.

This study found that dermatoses are common in people living with HIV and may serve as indicators of disease stage, with certain conditions more prevalent when CD4+ counts are below 200/mm³.

This article reviews the impact of psychological factors on skin health and discusses the interplay between stress, the brain, and the immune system but presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that HIF-P4H-2 function in FoxD1-lineage cells is crucial for normal hair follicle development and homeostasis in mice, implicating disrupted HIF, TGF-β, and Notch signaling pathways in associated defects.

This study found that depleting HIF-P4H-2 in FoxD1-lineage cells in mice led to disrupted hair follicle development, resulting in truncal alopecia but normal cranial hair, suggesting its crucial role in hair homeostasis.

This study observed that over 90% of patients undergoing paclitaxel and platinum chemotherapy for certain gynecological cancers experienced significant, yet reversible, alopecia by the end of treatment.

This study found no significant differences in age, sex, or histopathological characteristics for differentiating basal cell carcinoma from benign tumors of cutaneous appendages, complicating diagnosis.

Vitamin D is crucial for skin health and managing skin diseases.

This case report describes a 14-year-old female with tufted hair folliculitis, where isotretinoin reduced inflammation and exudation but persistent hair tufting remained, highlighting the challenges in treating this rare condition.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma showed similar efficacy to intralesional triamcinolone acetonide for treating mild patch-type alopecia areata, offering a potential alternative with fewer steroid-related side effects.

Ritlecitinib helps adolescents with severe alopecia areata regrow scalp hair and normalize body hair and nails.

Children with alopecia areata often face more stress and depression, especially related to separation, which can affect their condition.

In this review, several studies on Astragalus species, particularly Astragalus membranaceus, highlight their skin rejuvenating, photoprotective, antimicrobial, and wound-healing properties, though the authors note limitations due to reliance on non-human studies and short trial durations.

This article suggests that scalp erythrasma caused by Corynebacterium minutissimum may be underdiagnosed and that oral antibiotics used for other conditions could reduce its risk.

This study evaluated the long-term safety of ritlecitinib in adolescents with alopecia areata and found it to be well-tolerated without new safety concerns over approximately five years, with common adverse events including positive SARS-CoV-2 tests, acne, headache, and nasopharyngitis.

This study observed that adolescents with alopecia areata receiving ritlecitinib 50 mg daily showed notable hair regrowth over three years, as seen in both clinician- and patient-reported outcomes. However, the decreased number of participants at later stages limits the findings.

This review found preliminary evidence suggesting that photothermal conditioning enhances the bioactivity of platelet-rich plasma, potentially improving hair regeneration outcomes, but highlights the need for standardized protocols and further studies to confirm its efficacy and safety.

This study found that patients with acne vulgaris had significantly lower serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity compared to healthy controls, suggesting that oxidative stress might play a role in the condition's development.

This study found that clinicians frequently prefer cyclophosphamide over rituximab for induction therapy of childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus and ANCA-associated vasculitis, following a high-dose regimen recommended by the NIH.

In this prospective case-control study, researchers found that women with any phenotype of polycystic ovary syndrome exhibited increased retinal nerve fiber layer and choroidal thickness compared to healthy controls, with changes correlated to body mass index.

This mini review explores the potential of herbal testosterone 5α-reductase inhibitors for treating androgenetic alopecia, suggesting they might offer fewer side effects and better tolerability than traditional treatments like finasteride and minoxidil.

Many women in Turkey have hirsutism, according to the research group's findings.

This study observed that EZH2 expression scores in the epidermis, dermis, and hair follicles decrease with gestational age in human fetuses, and these scores were significantly higher in adults, indicating that lower EZH2 levels may be required for full skin differentiation and maturation before birth.

This case report is the first to document ethylene glycol toxicity in livestock calves in Türkiye, providing insights into clinical signs and pathological findings associated with this type of poisoning.
