The researchers reviewed cepharanthine, a long-used bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid, for its antiviral properties, including significant inhibition of SARS-CoV-2. They discussed cepharanthine's other pharmacological actions, highlighted plasma membrane fluidity as a key antiviral mechanism, and examined its safety, bioavailability, and potential for new clinical applications.

This study explored the use of flower-inspired analogies in dermatology, highlighting how these vivid descriptions aid in diagnosing skin conditions by drawing parallels between clinical features and floral patterns, effectively blending scientific observation with artistic imagery.

This observational study identified L. infantum infection in meerkats housed in two zoological parks in Madrid, marking the first such report for this species, though the disease persisted in one individual despite treatment.

This review highlights that scalp pruritus is a complex condition with various underlying causes, making it a challenge to diagnose and manage effectively. It emphasizes the need for comprehensive patient evaluation, history-taking, and personalized treatment strategies to address quality of life impacts.

This review summarizes recent findings on how the dysregulated PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway contributes to immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorders and discusses the potential of natural products, synthetic compounds, and biologic agents in their treatment. However, it emphasizes the need for further research to develop effective therapies.

This study proposes a grading system based on comorbidities and systemic involvement to assess the severity of dermatological emergencies.

This article emphasizes the importance of early recognition and multidisciplinary management of mucocutaneous manifestations in chemotherapy to control symptoms and reduce treatment-related morbidity, but presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers highlighted the complexity of managing psychocutaneous disorders, emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach involving dermatologists, psychiatrists, family physicians, and social support to address associated psychiatric diagnoses, risk factors like suicide, and ensure effective treatment.

This article reviews cultural differences in the incidence of hair-thread tourniquet syndrome and finds it may be less prevalent in Iranian children compared to Europe, possibly due to social and cultural factors.

This study reports isolated clitoral hood hair-thread tourniquet syndrome, highlighting the importance of suspicion in females with prominent clitoral hood and genital pain to facilitate timely intervention and tissue preservation.

This review explores the potential impact of nutrition on immune-mediated inflammatory skin diseases and evaluates whether dietary changes could help in treatment planning, but it presents no new clinical outcomes.

This review highlights capsaicin's chemical properties, natural sources, and its potential benefits such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic effects, while also noting its challenges in food applications regarding dosage, taste perception, and regulatory compliance.

This study found that scabies is the most common dermatological condition among children in Pakistan, with poor hygiene and exposure to pets or livestock being notable risk factors.

This paper reviews delusional infestation, its characteristics, and treatment options, highlighting a case study of a man with a strong belief in a nonexistent lice infestation and recommending low-dose antipsychotics for primary cases.

This case study reports the first instance of localized acquired hypertrichosis in a pediatric patient following splint application after forearm surgery, with hair growth returning to normal within eight months.

This study found that the RpoN/RpoS pathway regulates gene expression in Borrelia burgdorferi, influencing its ability to persist in mammals and adapt to different hosts.

This review summarizes recent progress in microneedle-based drug delivery systems and discusses their potential impact on cellular mechanisms and immunization signaling pathways, highlighting the need for further development in fabrication methods.

This study demonstrated that the highly divergent WDSV rv-cyclin significantly stimulates eukaryotic cell proliferation, leading to hyperplastic skin lesions in transgenic mice.

This case study reports a 70-year-old man with treatment-resistant pityriasis rubra pilaris achieving complete clinical remission with ustekinumab, adding to evidence supporting biologic therapy when TNF inhibitors are unsuitable.

This review discusses trichotillomania, including its diagnosis and management, and emphasizes the importance of a psychiatry-dermatology liaison alongside behavioral therapy and pharmacological options.

This study describes a novel FUE device that may perform successfully across various patient scenarios, adapting to differences in skin firmness, thickness, and hair curliness.

This review discusses the psychological and emotional effects of common dermatologic conditions and highlights their impact on quality of life, but it does not present new clinical results.

In this study, clinically used preoperative skin preparations with povidone iodine and chlorhexidine gluconate did not meet FDA log-reduction standards for bacterial bioburden in a porcine model, suggesting persistent infection risks.

This review highlights the inadequacy of the "specificity paradigm" in drug design for complex diseases like Alzheimer's and cancer, suggesting a shift toward developing multitarget drugs to improve treatment efficacy by interacting with multiple targets through various mechanisms.

This study analyzed teledermatology usage in mainland China during early 2020, finding that eczema, acne, and atopic dermatitis were the most common conditions treated and varied by age group.

This study found that S. scabiei infestation in rabbits leads to epidermal thickening possibly due to apoptosis-related proliferation and keratinization of the skin.

In this case study, a female bison calf's generalized dermatitis caused by mixed staphylococcal infection improved with targeted treatment, highlighting the importance of timely diagnosis and careful health management in wildlife conservation.

This study introduced a volar skin excisional wound model that closely mirrors human wound healing and supports evaluation of skin regeneration with multiple appendages and innervation.

This study found that insect wax can significantly promote hair growth in mice in a way that is comparable to minoxidil, likely due to the upregulation of VEGF expression.
