This study found that cataracts, hair changes, short stature, and low bodyweight are key indicators for diagnosing Werner syndrome in patients under 30, differing from older age group symptoms.

This study reports that a widespread founder SERPINB7 mutation underlies Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis, which is a common form of palmoplantar keratosis in Asian populations.

This study introduces a novel non-invasive method called "differential stripping" to quantify the penetration of topically applied substances into hair follicles.

This article presents a case of Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome with limb hypertrophy, port-wine stains, angiokeratoma, and venous varicosities, but reports no new findings beyond this case description.

This study identified 15 Iranian patients with PLEC variants linked to various plectinopathies and highlighted a novel association between a homozygous nonsense variant in PLEC and a rare combination of disorders including EB pruriginosa, muscular dystrophy, and congenital myasthenic syndrome.

This case report describes the diagnosis of Netherton's syndrome in two young sisters, attributing their serious erythrodermia, poor hair growth, and atopic conditions to this hereditary condition.

This study localized Merkel cells in human skin, finding them in the basal layer of glabrous skin at palms and soles, and in the interfollicular epidermis and isthmus region of hair follicles.

In this case report, a rare instance of a primary cutaneous granular cell tumor with prominent overlying terminal hair growth in an adult is described, highlighting the importance of recognizing atypical presentations to accurately diagnose similar uncommon neoplasms.

In this study, researchers observed that during zebrafish fin regeneration, osteoblast Erk activity, influenced by Fgf receptor signaling, forms gradients scaling with amputation length, which predicts regenerative tissue growth and skeletal structure size.

This study found that activating β-catenin signaling in embryonic epidermis promoted hair follicle characteristics at the expense of normal epidermal differentiation, leading to early pigmentation and innervation.

This case report documents the first known instance of FOXN1 duplication linked to congenital hypertrichosis.

This article reviews the development and theories of psychosomatic concepts in dermatology, outlining classifications of psychocutaneous disease and suggesting improvements in clinical practice, without reporting new research results.

This case report describes a 65-year-old man's trichofolliculoma, a hair follicle-origin tumor, which appeared as a persistent cheek pore extrusion and was removed at the patient's request.

This study found that different types of seborrheic keratosis demonstrate diverse differentiation patterns, highlighting its undifferentiated and hyperproliferative state with varying keratinization directions.

This case report illustrates how cognitive-behavioral therapy effectively reduced hair-pulling behavior and improved self-confidence and interpersonal relationships in a patient with trichotillomania.

This letter to the editor discusses the natural course of epidermolysis bullosa simplex with mottled pigmentation in a Japanese family but does not present new clinical results.

This review found that commercial influences may affect how male baldness is represented as a disease and how treatment options are presented, often omitting limitations.

This study explored how using kitchen-related analogies for dermatological signs, like comparing certain appearances to common culinary items, can enhance understanding and retention of complex medical concepts in dermatology.

This review discusses the role of transient receptor potential channels in pathological scarification and suggests these channels as potential targets for its prevention and treatment, although it reports no new clinical findings.

In this case study, researchers observed that demand for trichology services among customers aged 60 and older is increasing more rapidly than overall company revenue at the Hairmitage Clinic, suggesting a promising market in this demographic.

This study observed that hair cuticles experience greater water-induced plasticization than hair cortex, affecting the torsional rigidity of hair fibers, which may help predict hair setting behavior.

This correspondence suggests that while patients with Raynaud phenomenon may develop connective tissue disorders, physicians should consider this possibility without assuming for certain that progression will occur.

In this case report, a 16-year-old female with Netherton syndrome, a rare genetic disorder, exhibited symptoms such as skin issues, hair abnormalities, and elevated serum IgE levels. The diagnosis was supported by skin biopsy, and treatment included topical therapies, NB-UVB, and infliximab.
