This case study observed that Ayurvedic treatments significantly improved hair density and scalp health while reducing hair fall, itching, and dandruff in a 22-year-old woman with chronic symptoms, and without adverse effects.

This study identified a subtype of itch-sensing neurons in mice, which express Ret and somatostatin, and found that their ablation reduces scratching induced by certain pruritogens.

This study presents a microscopic analysis of the pruritic variant of trichostasis spinulosa in two patients and reviews existing literature, reporting no new clinical results.

This case report describes post herpetic itch leading to frictional alopecia of the eyebrows and scalp due to frequent rubbing caused by neuropathic itch.

This study found that distinct neurons in the nucleus accumbens lateral shell regulate scratching behavior differently; D1R neurons promote scratching while D2R neurons help stop it, with elevated dopamine levels during chronic itch potentially enhancing persistent scratching.

This report highlights a case of disseminated and recurrent infundibulofolliculitis in a 45-year-old African American male and underscores the importance of performing a skin biopsy for diagnosis.

This case study discusses a 36-year-old female diagnosed with a facial variant of eruptive vellus hair cyst, confirmed by skin biopsy, and highlights the importance of considering this condition in the differential diagnosis of asymptomatic facial papules.

This article discusses the causes and treatment options for lichen planopilaris, a scarring hair loss condition, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review identifies several off-label uses of H-1 antihistamines in dermatology beyond itch and urticaria control, though the evidence is weak and further trials are needed.

This case report describes a 22-year-old male with hair casts on scalp and body hair, associated with androgenetic alopecia, also affecting his sister as pseudonits.

This study found that in participants with notalgia paresthetica, 8 weeks of treatment with difelikefalin significantly improved itch intensity and increased the rate of strict complete response compared to placebo, starting as early as week 3.

This article reviews the causes, characteristics, and treatment options for seborrheic dermatitis, discussing its prevalence in specific populations, without providing new research findings.

This review describes lichen planopilaris diffuse pattern and recommends topical corticosteroids as a first-line treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that ATP-sensitive potassium channels may play a role in chloroquine-induced itching in mice, as channel openers reduced scratching behavior while a blocker reversed these effects.

This study reviewed the genetic and phenotypic aspects of Olmsted syndrome, highlighting pathogenic mutations in TRPV3 and MBTPS2 genes and their association with specific skin manifestations like symmetrical keratoderma and hyperkeratotic plaques.

This case report describes the management of PRIDE complex, a skin and hair condition associated with EGFR inhibitor treatment like cetuximab, emphasizing that it does not require stopping the medication.

This review discusses the functions and potential therapeutic targeting of TRP ion channels in the skin, noting their involvement in both physiological processes and various pathological conditions, but reports no new experimental results.

This study observed that patients receiving IL-2 immunotherapy developed a skin eruption characterized by burning and pruritus, which resolved shortly after stopping the infusion, suggesting that IL-2 mediated these effects.

This study found that human epidermal keratinocytes express a functional μ-opiate receptor at both the mRNA and protein levels, potentially playing a role in skin physiology and pathology.

This review discusses the use of recombinant cytokines as therapeutic agents in clinical settings and describes the range of cutaneous complications associated with their use, including both minor and severe skin reactions.

This study found that G protein-coupled estrogen receptor enhances melanin synthesis in melanoma cells through cAMP-PKA-MITF-TYR signaling, suggesting its potential as a drug target for chloasma treatment.

Sensitive skin is often caused by nerve fibers and environmental factors, and can be managed with mild skincare and professional advice.

This review discusses the long-term cutaneous and ocular complications from sulfur mustard exposure in the Iranian population, identifying pruritus and malignant changes as significant issues and highlighting eye surface damage leading to visual decline.

This article reviews lichen planopilaris, a chronic scarring alopecia, and explores recent treatment developments, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article summarizes dermatologic adverse events in patients treated with afatinib in clinical trials and discusses strategies for managing these side effects, without providing new clinical results.

This study found that surgical removal of adrenal glands resolved clinical signs of adrenocortical tumors and hyperplasias in ferrets, but cortisol levels were not excessively high.

In this study, vemurafenib was associated with a wide range of cutaneous side effects in patients with advanced melanoma, including photosensitivity and various skin and hair changes, necessitating regular dermatological management.

This study found that scalp sensitivity frequently occurs in the French population and is associated with various symptoms and triggers, differing from facial skin sensitivity.
