This study found that CRABP1, Nestin, and Ephrin B2 are expressed in both the tumor stroma and invasive front of skin adnexal tumors and basal cell carcinomas.

Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.

In this case report, a 24-year-old male with acquired distal trichorrhexis nodosa showed significant improvement after avoiding harmful hair treatments and using a repair shampoo alongside biotin and zinc supplements.

This review outlines a diagnostic framework for clinicians to distinguish different types of inherited ichthyoses and suggests further testing and treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified major criteria including ectodermal malformations for diagnosing ichthyosis with confetti, and revealed significant genetic variation in the disease locus within the general population.

This study found that mechanical and chemical interactions in skin organoids are crucial for initiating mesenchymal-epithelial interactions necessary for hair follicle regeneration.

This study found that ossification in trichilemmal cysts may be more common than previously thought, often associated with cyst wall rupture, and reports a novel case of ossifying TC with extramedullary hematopoiesis.

This article discusses the characteristics, clinical presentation, and diagnosis of calcified epidermal cysts but reports no new clinical results.

This research suggests that both proposed pathways into hair fibers for molecule penetration are valid and complementary, with all fiber structures acting as potential routes for delivering materials.

This study found evidence of Demodex mite involvement in the formation of horn cysts within eyelid papillomas, suggesting a role for the mite in tumor morphogenesis.

This study concluded that THC and THCA incorporate into hair by a mechanism independent of hair pigmentation, likely influenced by indirect deposition via sebum and skin.

Dermoscopy helped correctly diagnose a skin condition that was previously misidentified as a different hair loss disease.

This study suggests that observing the acute telogen effluvium triad—frontal fringe, temporal recess, and occipital fringe—can aid in diagnosing telogen effluvium during resolution phases, despite challenges like negative pull tests.

This case report describes a 16-year-old with ectrodactyly-ED-clefting syndrome, where scarring alopecia with follicular involvement appeared during puberty, possibly due to anatomic hair abnormalities.

In this study, a case of a 20-year-old woman revealed ectopic acanthosis nigricans at a post-syndactyly-release surgical site, suggesting this rare condition could result from epidermal–dermal mismatch and altered growth factor signaling in grafted skin, without indicating any metabolic or malignancy concerns.

This article proposes a hypothesis that KRT75, a protein found in hair follicles, was evolutionarily co-opted by ameloblasts during the development of prismatic enamel in synapsids, but reports no new results.

This study presents a typology of how patients use euphemisms for medical terms in English and French, based on examples from various textbooks and lexicons.

Trichotillomania, a disorder where people compulsively pull out their own hair, often starts around age 12, is more common in adult females, and can be treated with behavior therapy and medication.

This study revealed that hair cells undergo an organized process to become keratin-packed "zombie" cells, highlighting a key area for treatment development in the first 1mm of hair follicles.

This article discusses the characteristics and pathogenesis of pseudofolliculitis barbae, particularly its prevalence in men of African and Asian descent, but presents no new research findings.

This case study reports a rare combination of primary hyperparathyroidism with Klinefelter syndrome in a 44-year-old male, highlighting an unusual KS mosaicism with a mild phenotype.

In this study, trichostasis spinulosa was observed in 51 patients with lesions on the nose, where some follicles contained up to 86 hairs each, possibly influenced by endocrine factors and actinic rays.

This article presents a case of trichostasis spinulosa, a common but often unrecognized disorder, diagnosed through dermoscopic examination of black macules revealing bundled vellus hairs, with the patient declining treatment.

Pediatric patients with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa face more hospital admissions, procedures, and complications than others.

This report discusses a late-onset case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome that improved with prednisone treatment, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis to reduce life-threatening complications.

This study found that the creation of hair follicle lumens in mice is driven by the outward migration of keratin 79-positive cells, suggesting a novel mechanism for generating hollow cores in hair follicles.

This study found that Hoxc13-/- rabbits exhibit complete hair loss on the head and dorsum, providing a potential model for understanding human ECTD-9 and related dermatological conditions.

Corkscrew hair may be a new sign for quickly diagnosing scalp fungus in black children.

This study observed that multiple familial trichoepitheliomas commonly presented with a cribriform histopathological tumor pattern, differentiating them from solitary trichoepitheliomas.
