This study identified a novel homozygous EDNRA variant linked to Oro-Oto-Cardiac Syndrome and showed that EDNRA signaling is essential for normal craniofacial and cardiovascular development.

This study reported that hair and scalp disorders accounted for a significant portion of pediatric dermatology visits, with a diverse range of conditions observed among the children.

This review discusses nutritional factors important for hair growth and the need to assess and address deficiencies in cases of alopecia, but does not report new clinical results.

This study evaluated treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found hydroxychloroquine and 5a-reductase inhibitors to be most effective, with 70-72% of patients experiencing stabilization or improvement, but limitations in treatment consistency and assessment methods remain.

This study reports promising preliminary results for using monoclonal antibodies to identify cashmere fibers, highlighting observed immunological differences from wool keratins.

This study demonstrates that α-parvin is crucial for epidermal morphogenesis and hair follicle development by mediating integrin-dependent adhesion and actin organization in keratinocytes.

This study found that 6-Gingerol significantly suppressed hair growth in mice by reducing hair follicle number and length, potentially through increased expression of MMP2 and MMP9.

This study found that vitamin D was positively associated with serum ferritin levels in Korean women without metabolic syndrome, but this association was not observed in those with metabolic syndrome.

This chapter reviews common drug-related and systemic disorder-induced alopecias, focusing on their epidemiology, causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment, but reports no new findings.

This review discusses the historical and current epidemiological trends of tinea capitis in Spain and warns about a potential resurgence due to increased anthropophilic species if not properly managed; it reports no new clinical data.

This study reports that providing free, specialized dermatology care through a collaboration between the University of Michigan Health System and a nonprofit clinic was feasible and beneficial for uninsured Southeast Michigan residents.

This study found that androgens downregulate BMP2 in dermal papilla cells, inhibiting hair follicle stem cell differentiation, while BMP2 addition may restore hair lineage differentiation through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

The study characterized the transcriptional changes in porcine SKP cells transitioning to fibroblast-like cells, indicating potential roles for specific signaling pathways in this cell fate transition.

This review discusses various dermatological scoring systems used to objectively assess disease severity and guide treatment decisions, reporting no new clinical results.

This diagnostic case study describes a 25-year-old man with oral ulcers, body rash, and erythematous nodules.

This study compiled an archive of 684 genes associated with monogenic hair disorders, identifying previously unrecognized components of Hippo signaling and proposing a new biologically-grounded disease taxonomy.

This study found that the FSHR Ser680Asn (rs6166) gene polymorphism is associated with an increased risk of PCOS in the examined population and could serve as a molecular biomarker for identifying risk.

This paper provides a comprehensive review of melanocytes' roles in skin biology, focusing on their pigmentation and immune functions, and suggests potential research opportunities for preventing and treating skin disorders.

The researchers reported that corticosteroid treatments for alopecia areata led to clinical improvement but did not significantly alter oxidative stress markers, suggesting a limited regulatory effect on these systems.

This review discusses the chemical constituents and diverse pharmacological activities of Glycyrrhiza glabra (liquorice) but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing its potential for developing new therapeutic formulations.

This study outlines the temporary or sometimes permanent hair loss caused by cancer treatments, noting it often starts 2-3 weeks after chemotherapy and highlights the need for more research into prevention and treatment strategies for therapy-related alopecia.

This study reveals that basement membrane composition and structure in mouse hair follicles are specialized for distinct inter-tissue interactions, with laminin α5 being essential for maintaining these interfaces.

This study found that dermatological infectious diseases, particularly cutaneous leishmaniasis, were the most common among Syrian refugees in the surveyed region, highlighting the need for improved preventive health services.

Mesotherapy and platelet-rich plasma treatments may help with hair loss, but their safety and effectiveness are still uncertain.

This case report describes a high school wrestler whose forearm rash was initially misdiagnosed as eczema, later identified as Majocchi's granuloma, and successfully treated with oral antifungal therapy after a biopsy.

This case report suggests that regular use of antifungal shampoo might obscure clinical indicators of Trichophyton tonsurans tinea capitis in healthy adults, necessitating detailed diagnostic approaches like histopathology and dermoscopy.

This book reviews the various types of acne and acneiform conditions, as well as their treatment options, with expert insights from multiple fields.

This review discusses the role of various genetic regulators in maintaining human mesenchymal stem cell stemness and highlights strategies for ex-vivo expansion, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review explores the efficacy and safety of treatments for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, revealing a predominance of case reports and series, and concludes that randomized controlled trials are needed for better evidence-based therapies.

In this study, researchers found a significant association between Alopecia Areata and depressive symptoms, with those diagnosed showing higher depression scores and differing responses in psychological assessments compared to controls.
