This case report presents a 2-year-old girl with type B loose anagen syndrome diagnosed through a painless hair pull test, avoiding unnecessary further tests or referrals.

The authors reviewed cases of six children with both hair-shaft abnormalities and neurological disorders, noting that such hair defects may indicate neurological conditions, including potentially treatable metabolic errors.

This abstract catalogs resources from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons but presents no research findings.

Vertebrate skin evolved to be more specialized and complex, especially in land animals.

This case report describes a 27-year-old man with a unique association of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans and acne keloidalis nuchae, successfully treated with oral isotretinoin.

In this study, researchers observed that knocking out KCNQ3 in mice increased firing frequencies in response to stimuli, particularly at slow mechanical indentation velocities, indicating a role in mechanosensory neuron sensitivity.

This article reviews different perspectives on nevus comedonicus, discussing its classification and potential associations with systemic findings, but it reports no new results.

In this study, researchers found that hair alterations such as frontal-occipital inversion in males and a high occipital hairline may aid in diagnosing the uncommon condition TRPS.

This article proposes an updated naming system for keratin-associated proteins and genes, aiming to improve data storage and retrieval by including species information and genetic variation.

This study demonstrated that using morphometric and 3D reconstruction software to evaluate scalp biopsies in non-cicatricial alopecias may be feasible and sensitive for detecting subtle follicular changes.

This paper discusses the fabrication, exhibition, and treatment history of Robert Gober's beeswax leg sculptures, reporting no new results but detailing the artworks' preservation challenges like discoloration and hair loss.

This article reviews acne keloidalis in young black men, describes its clinical and histopathological characteristics, and highlights surgical therapy approaches despite the uncertain etiology of the condition.

This study reports a rare case of polyorchidism in a 96-year-old male cadaver, suggesting a new classification based on anatomical and histological findings to aid in accurate diagnosis.

This case series describes Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli in five Indian patients, suggesting it may be more common than currently reported.

This study observed that human hair keratin showed distinct morphological features depending on the dissolution speed, which could have potential applications in clinical settings for developing self-tendons.

The researchers reported that BCE-like changes overlying dermatofibroma show a differentiation pattern most similar to normal basal cells based on specific keratin markers.

This case study describes an acquired localized form of trichorrhexis nodosa resulting from physical-chemical trauma.

This review discusses the portrayal and enforcement of idealized masculinities in men's self-improvement advertising and reports no new empirical results.

This case report describes a 30-year-old male with a late diagnosis of Kallmann's syndrome, highlighting the necessity of hormonal therapy to reduce the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures despite the patient's acceptance of his physical appearance.

This study identified numerous size polymorphisms in the human ultrahigh sulfur KAP4 genes due to intragenic sequence variations, suggesting these polymorphisms may have arisen through deletions and duplications during evolution.

This case study reports a novel mutation in the TRPV3 gene causing atypical Olmsted syndrome, characterized by disabling keratoderma and squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting the need for careful long-term monitoring in affected patients.

This study reports new monilethrix cases in Venezuela, the Netherlands, Belgium, and France, expanding the known mutational spectrum of the disorder with novel mutations in KRT81, KRT83, and KRT86 genes.

In this case report, a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome also had mononeuritis multiplex, and the authors suggest that an autoimmune mechanism may be involved based on steroid responsiveness and electrophysiological findings.

Fibroblasts from healthy donors can prevent changes seen in recessive epidermolysis bullosa simplex.

The hair follicle structure is more complex than thought, with new findings on protein formation.

In this study, researchers used patient-derived organoids to model metastasis in colorectal cancer and discovered that cancer cells temporarily switch to a wound-healing program, orchestrated by reduced EZH2 activity and YAP signaling, before spreading to new organs.
