In this study, isotretinoin treatment for acne vulgaris significantly increased serum adiponectin and leptin levels but had no significant effect on BMI or ghrelin levels.

This review discusses the complex relationship between stress and various skin conditions, highlighting the role of the skin in the stress response and the brain-skin communication pathways, but reports no new research findings.

This report from the UK reviews the literature on post-menopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights its under-recognition and distinctive characteristics compared to lichen planopilaris, but does not provide new results.

This article reports no new clinical findings and provides no abstract, focusing on imipramine-induced lesions resembling alopecia areata.

This article discusses the causes and diagnosis of telogen effluvium, highlighting traction alopecia as a useful model for studying hair loss, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the effects of chemical hair straighteners and reports associated side effects like scalp inflammation and hair damage, noting the variability of findings and the need for further research.

This study aimed to document and compare the prevalence and characteristics of hair loss in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, noting the differences in trichoscopic and histopathologic evaluations between those with and without alopecia. Results are not reported.

This study observed that both ritlecitinib and brepocitinib improved scalp biomarkers in patients with alopecia areata, with associations to hair regrowth seen in this phase 2a trial.

In this study, the researchers observed that male pattern alopecia is characterized by miniature follicles, enlarged sebaceous glands, and an increased number of mast cells, without significant abnormalities in enzyme activity.

This review examines the skin exposome, including solar exposure, air pollution, hormones, nutrition, and psychological factors, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the various roles of vitamin D in skin disorders, including established use in psoriasis and potential applications for atopic dermatitis and skin cancer prevention, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the characteristics and classification criteria of cutaneous lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that acne lesion formation involves early hyperkeratinization and inflammation around hair follicles, creating a self-sustaining cycle that may progressively worsen acne.

This review discusses mechanisms of wound healing impairment in leptin-deficient murine models used for diabetic research, and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for further study.

A man's chest hair turned white after a shingles infection, possibly due to virus-damaged pigment cells.

This analysis examines acne vulgaris using an integrative approach, highlighting its links with psychopathology, lifestyle, and diet, but reports no new results.

This paper discusses the challenges of diagnosing drug eruptions, emphasizing the nonspecific patterns and unclear pathomechanisms, and calls for further research using new biologic drugs to understand these reactions better.

This study reports a case of hepatogenic photosensitization in a 22-day-old lactating Tabapuã calf, induced by toxins ingested via breast milk from a mother fed Brachiaria decumbens pasture; treatment including pasture removal and medicinal intervention led to symptom remission.

This review highlights that surface mechanical regulation can program macrophage behavior through specific mechanical cues on material surfaces, potentially advancing immunotherapies and regenerative medicine by enabling precise control over macrophage functions.

This study found that Myrtus communis leaf extract significantly decreased IL-1α and increased VEGF gene expressions in human keratinocytes, which may relate to the plant's traditional uses for hair loss and wound healing, though further research is needed to explore these effects.

This review examines current understanding of how skin microbiota interact with and influence wound healing, highlighting the roles of commensal microorganisms in inflammation resolution, tissue regeneration, and barrier restoration, and discusses potential microbiota-based therapies for improving wound management.

In this study, researchers observed that Cuscuta reflexa extract mitigated inflammation and oxidative stress in testosterone-induced benign prostatic hypertrophy in Wistar rats, suggesting its potential as an adjunctive therapy for BPH.

This study found that epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors can induce erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, typically appearing sooner and affecting the scalp more extensively compared to other triggers.

In this case report, researchers describe a 17-year-old African male with an overlapping condition of juvenile dermatomyositis and systemic scleroderma, highlighting the importance of thorough history-taking and physical examination for accurate diagnosis and suggesting early referral to a pediatric rheumatologist to prevent severe outcomes.
