This review details common symptoms of rheumatic diseases and how to differentiate them from other conditions based on patient history and physical examination.

This review highlights the importance of promptly addressing symptoms in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, whether they stem from disease activity, medication side effects, or related autoimmune conditions, but it reports no new findings.

This commentary honors Shoji Okuda's pioneering but overlooked work on hair transplantation techniques from 1939, detailing comprehensive experiments that were rediscovered and translated into English decades later.

This study found that the uptake of molecules by hair is influenced by both hydrophobic and ionic charge interactions, with binding affinity decreasing as pH approaches the solute's dissociation constant.

This review summarizes the characteristics of the peri-malignant melanoma stroma, indicating its potential role in early dermal metastatic migration and increased metastasis risk.

This article proposes a novel hypothesis that androgenetic alopecia may be mainly caused by skull bone expansion affecting blood supply to hair follicles rather than differences in individual follicle programming, and calls for more genetic research into skull development.

Proscar (finasteride) blocks 5α-reductase in sea urchin ovaries and testes, suggesting potential treatment for androgen-related conditions.

This study found inflammation and fibrosis in both pattern hair loss cases and controls but concluded that these factors may not significantly contribute to the pathogenesis of pattern hair loss.

This article provides a comprehensive overview of tattoo-related issues for clinicians, covering various aspects such as tattoo types, medical relevance, removal methods, complications, and South African legislation, but reports no new research findings.

This study observed that the OCIAD2 and DCN genes in Liaoning cashmere goats have opposite effects on hair growth by interacting with the TGF-β signaling pathway, influencing follicle morphogenesis and periodic changes.

In this study, researchers developed a new variant of the Mercedes flap with releasing incisions for reconstructing medium-sized scalp defects, demonstrating complete defect closure without complications in three patients following a single operation with excellent aesthetic outcomes.

This article reviews drug-induced hair and nail disorders and discusses their clinical recognition, underlying mechanisms, and potential treatment strategies, without presenting new research findings.

This study found that beard and body hair can be used as additional donor sources for scalp transplants in androgenic alopecia, retaining their original color, curl, and calibre.

This study investigated demographic and clinical characteristics of twenty-nail dystrophy in Korea, identifying differences in subtype and gender predominance between children and adults.

This guide provides a comprehensive approach to diagnosing periocular hair disorders, which can range from benign conditions to those posing serious health risks.

Human hair is unique and important for understanding human evolution and identity.

This article discusses scalp tissue expansion as a superior reconstructive option for large defects over traditional skin grafts and flap methods, but reports no new clinical outcomes.

Recent hair loss research shows some progress, especially in understanding male pattern baldness, but effective treatments for many types of hair loss are still lacking.

This study found that a novel R343H mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene impairs its transcription activity, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets and alopecia in the affected family.

This study reports the effective use of botulinum toxin A in treating multiple facial apocrine hidrocystomas in a 29-year-old man, a case not previously documented in English-language literature.

This study found that suppressing Jagged1 in epidermal stem cells disrupted Notch signaling and resulted in poor-quality wound healing, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for improving wound repair.

This review discusses the causes of alopecia, including androgenetic alopecia, and potential active ingredients for hair regrowth, but it does not report new clinical results.

This study reports that Wise is expressed in specific patterns during the morphogenesis of chick embryos, particularly in regions associated with known signaling molecules like Wnt, Bmp, and Shh.

This review discusses the evidence for a cause-and-effect relationship between scalp condition and hair condition, and reports no new clinical results from trials.

This study found that topical cetirizine treatment significantly improved hair regrowth and patient satisfaction in male patients with androgenetic alopecia compared to a placebo, highlighting its potential role in treatment.

This study developed a protocol for acellular dermal matrix manufacturing from pig skin, demonstrating effective removal of cellular components while preserving the collagen scaffold's structural organization through a series of physical and chemical treatments.

This review systematically analyzed literature to differentiate desmoplastic trichoepitheliomas from other cutaneous tumors based on clinical, histopathological, and immunohistochemical features but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes the first recorded instance of congenital triangular alopecia in the mid-frontal scalp region, challenging the assumption that it is restricted to the frontotemporal area.

This study found that epidermal stem cells in nonglabrous skin are connected to the distal end of the arrector pili muscle, which may play a role in epidermal renewal and wound healing.

This review discusses the developmental plasticity between teeth and taste buds in cichlid fishes and reports no new experimental findings, highlighting potential implications for craniofacial organ patterning and regeneration.
