Men have worse COVID-19 outcomes than women due to genetic and hormonal differences.

This case report highlights that dermatoscopy and histopathological analysis were crucial for accurately diagnosing Lichen Planopilaris in two patients, leading to a correct diagnosis after initial misdiagnoses.

This study aimed to create an herbal shampoo that effectively removes oil, dirt, and dandruff while enhancing hair thickness, growth, and blackness, without causing side effects like conventional cosmetic shampoos can. Results are not reported.

This study identified proteins involved in hair follicle formation in cashmere goat embryos, highlighting potential signaling factors that may drive hair follicle initiation and cashmere growth.

This study found that skin-infiltrating neutrophils play a crucial role in triggering chronic itch in atopic dermatitis by promoting skin hyperinnervation and enhanced expression of itch signaling molecules in a mouse model.

This study supports the use of a national registry as an effective tool for documenting epidemiological data, disease progression, treatment responses, and quality of life impacts in patients with alopecia areata.

This symposium discussed recent advances in understanding skin as a sensory organ, emphasizing the interactions between itch, pain, and touch pathways and highlighting potential therapeutic targets.

This study found significant associations between pruritus and elevated parathormone levels, and xerosis and elevated serum creatinine levels, in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing haemodialysis.

This study found that continuous itraconazole therapy was more effective than pulse therapy for treating tinea capitis caused by Microsporum ferrugineum, with a higher cumulative cure rate and no significant adverse effects.

Blocking a compound called prostaglandin D₂ might help treat hair loss.

This study by Gerald Combs suggests that selenium may help prevent cancer, but both deficiency and excess can lead to serious health problems.

This study identified key proteins, FKBP10 and FBN2, that promote the growth cycle of secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats, with higher expression in the anagen phase, offering insights into mechanisms potentially enhancing cashmere yield and quality.

A rare skin reaction from cancer treatment was successfully managed with topical treatments and antihistamines.

This animal study found that YH0618 may alleviate doxorubicin-induced alopecia and affects proteins like keratin and Smad3, suggesting potential therapeutic targets. The researchers analyzed protein expression changes to understand YH0618's effects in treating chemotherapy-related hair loss.

This study suggests that structural changes in the TRPV3 channel are linked to severe skin conditions like Olmsted syndrome, with differences observed between heat-activated and resting states.

This study found that Italian nurses who worked night shifts, in non-COVID wards, and reported regular meal intake were more likely to contract SARS-CoV-2.

This study found that a topical henna formulation may improve symptoms like itching, burning, and redness in patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, but larger controlled studies are needed.

This report describes an 11-year-old boy in Panama who visited a village health center due to scalp itching and subtle hair loss, previously treated for head lice, with no hair pulling reported.

This study found that neutrophils are crucial for initiating chronic itch in atopic dermatitis and suggest that targeting neutrophils may help alleviate symptoms in this condition.

This study found that keloids significantly impair quality of life, with pain and itch being major contributors to this impact, comparable to other chronic dermatologic conditions.

This review discusses various causes and treatments of scalp pruritus, distinguishing between conditions with primary skin lesions and those without, but provides no new clinical results.

This study observed that mice lacking epidermal HSD11b1 had increased non-histaminergic itch and changes in skin nerve fibers, potentially linked to higher TSLP expression.

About 17% of people in France have dandruff, and those with dandruff are more likely to have sensitive and itchy scalps.

This study found that the oral Janus kinase inhibitor CP-690,550 has a direct effect on reducing pruritus in patients with psoriasis, independent of clinician-assessed improvements in psoriasis severity.

This article reviews the complex causes of scalp pruritus and emphasizes the importance of thorough diagnosis, though some cases may lack a clear cause and rely on empirical treatment to alleviate symptoms.

Itch is a common symptom in patients with chronic venous insufficiency, often accompanied by burning and pain.

This study found that using a zinc pyrithione-containing hair rinse significantly reduced dandruff and itching, with effects linked to the amount of zinc pyrithione residue on the hair.

This study identified that the MC-5-HT-HTR2A axis plays a role in chronic pruritus in a mouse model of SADBE-induced allergic contact dermatitis, suggesting potential for therapeutic targeting.
