This study found that lupus discoid lesions on the scalp are more common in females and are associated with a higher incidence of other autoimmune diseases compared to lesions in other areas.

This study developed consensus guidelines for using low-dose oral and topical minoxidil in patients undergoing hair transplant surgery for pattern hair loss, recommending dosing adjustments, monitoring protocols, and timing for post-surgery application.

This case report describes a 54-year-old woman with familial dyskeratotic comedones who experienced slight improvement in her skin lesions after three months of treatment with topical retinoids and urea cream.

This review of low-level laser therapy for patterned hair loss found that red-spectrum light may be effective for hair growth, but larger case-controlled studies are needed to further support this conclusion.

The study demonstrated that both DKK2 and SOSTDC1 are necessary for normal timing of the first catagen phase in mice hair growth cycles.

In this study, deep phenotyping of 68 patients with XPD gene defects successfully separated individuals by clinical diagnosis and survival status, potentially improving diagnosis and prognosis for xeroderma pigmentosum and trichothiodystrophy.

This study found that a dutasteride-loaded liposomal system significantly increased skin permeability and drug deposition in mouse skin compared to other formulations, suggesting improved localized treatment potential for androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, high-dose dutasteride significantly reduced several core symptoms of PMDD compared to placebo, supporting the role of neurosteroids in this condition.

This case report details the dermoscopic features of bilateral cutaneous larva migrans in an adult male, noting similarities with lymphangioma circumscriptum but highlights that typical dermoscopy magnification may be insufficient for diagnosis.

Combining low-level laser therapy with topical corticosteroids effectively improved Lichen Planopilaris symptoms.

This review found that the DLQI is widely used as a benchmark in the development and validation of dermatology quality-of-life measures.

This study found that pulsed diode laser treatment safely and effectively cleared lesions and reduced the appearance of dark plugs in trichostasis spinulosa for up to 20 weeks in dark-skinned individuals.

In this case report, a rare instance of Graham–Little–Piccardi–Lassueur syndrome coexisting with linear lichen planus was identified in a 35-year-old male, highlighting the condition's rarity in males, with dermoscopy aiding diagnosis through distinctive scalp and trunk lesion features.

This review summarizes existing validation research on the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), highlighting its reliability and responsiveness while identifying the need for further validation regarding racial and ethnic inclusivity.

This study found that their newly developed ADRL framework significantly improved the accuracy of scalp tissue layer segmentation in HR-MR images compared to existing methods.

This study found that the E3 ligases NEDD4 and NEDD4L regulate intestinal stem cell priming by degrading the LGR5 receptor, and their loss leads to increased Wnt activation and crypt proliferation, which in turn accelerates intestinal tumor progression in mice.

This study suggests that lithocholic acid may enhance hair regeneration in alopecia by activating vitamin D receptors in human dermal papilla cells.

This article discusses the use of low-level laser therapy for hair regrowth in men and women but reports no new clinical results; it reviews types of lasers and evidence from animal and human studies.

This randomized trial found that diode laser achieved more favorable long-term hair removal outcomes but induced more discomfort and transient adverse effects compared to intense pulsed light in women with Fitzpatrick skin types I-IV.

This case report describes a patient with lichen planopilaris who experienced remarkable hair regrowth at a previously scarred area after treatment with low-dose naltrexone and platelet-rich plasma, following minimal response to other therapies.

This study found that deleting all three Desmoglein 1 genes in mice led to impaired skin barrier function, disorganized epidermis, and postnatal lethality, highlighting Dsg1's essential role in epidermal development and maintenance.

Lgr5 is a marker for active, long-lasting stem cells in mouse hair follicles.

This study reports that generalized discoid lupus erythematosus is a recognized canine variant of cutaneous lupus erythematosus, resembling its human counterpart, with varied treatment responses and common relapses.

This case report highlights the rarity and complex differential diagnosis of discoid lupus erythematosus, emphasizing that immunosuppressive therapy in such cases can lead to serious complications like pulmonary tuberculosis.

In this study, researchers identified a rare form of hereditary hypotrichosis linked to mutations in the LSS gene, which affects cholesterol biosynthesis and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

This study identified miRNAs within the Dlk1-Gtl2 region on chromosome 18 as potential epigenetic regulators of lamb fur traits, with possible implications for the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.

Low-dose oral minoxidil effectively treats female hair loss with good safety.

This study developed expert consensus guidelines on using low-dose oral and topical minoxidil for pattern hair loss around hair transplant surgery, recommending specific doses, monitoring practices, and timing of use for both male and female patients.

This study observed that low-level laser therapy (LLLT) increased cell viability in SARS-CoV-2-uninfected HEK293/ACE2 cells but did not improve viability in infected cells, suggesting mixed effects.

In this study, hair shafts from trichothiodystrophy patients with ERCC2 mutations revealed abnormal cuticle structures and protein imbalances compared to normal hair shafts.
