This report summarizes data from The Netherlands' cosmetovigilance system from 2009-2014, finding that facial and hair products commonly caused undesirable skin reactions like erythema and itching, with severe cases occasionally involving hair loss and respiratory issues.

This study introduces a new device for measuring changes in hair stiffness and lubricity, which can help predict the effects of various hair treatments.

This study found that NB-002 demonstrated clear antifungal activity and clinically significant nail clearing in subjects with distal subungual onychomycosis and ≤50% nail involvement, compared to a vehicle treatment.

The Dfl mutation in mice causes poor sebaceous gland function and complete hair loss.

A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.

This review explores clinical studies on low-level laser therapy (LLLT) for alopecia and suggests it may benefit patients unresponsive to conventional treatments, but larger studies are needed to confirm efficacy.

Severe digestive issues in DRESS need early endoscopy for better treatment.

This study found that using a pH-sensitive layered double hydroxide nanocarrier to deliver etoposide significantly reduced liver toxicity and enhanced the drug’s effectiveness in targeting and suppressing non-small cell lung cancer.

This study found that dutasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers coated with a stearic acid-chitosan oligomer are stable, less cytotoxic, and suitable for topical delivery to promote hair growth.

In this study, researchers found that an ethyl acetate extract of the green microalga Scenedesmus deserticola significantly increased the viability of human dermal fibroblasts by over 20% compared to a control and identified a potent anti-UV compound, loliolide, through further fractionation.

This case report documents the rare occurrence of lipedematous scalp in two black Caribbean female siblings, suggesting a potential genetic factor and noting psychiatric co-morbidities as novel associations.

This study established a new reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method to accurately and precisely quantify silodosin and dutasteride in mixtures, meeting International Council of Harmonization validation criteria for stability, sensitivity, and recovery.

This study reports that using laser microdissection to isolate telogen hair follicles significantly improves DNA extraction efficiency for STR typing, reducing contamination from keratin.

This review discusses the potential mechanisms and evidence supporting low-level laser therapy for stimulating hair growth in men and women, while noting its safety and effectiveness but needing further study on specific parameters.

The researchers identified a pathogenic variant in the SRD5A2 gene among siblings with 46,XY disorder of sexual development, highlighting the importance of comprehensive genetic testing in diagnosis and management.

This study found that Black patients with discoid lupus erythematosus had significantly worse CLASI damage scores and higher odds for dyspigmentation, scalp involvement, and scarring alopecia compared to non-Black patients.

This study found that DALL-E 2 performed poorly in generating accurate images of most pediatric dermatological conditions, highlighting the need for more domain-specific and inclusive training data.

This study reports that the Luce LDS 100 infrared light therapy shows positive hair growth results after one year in men and women with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that low-level light therapy significantly increased hair density and diameter in androgenetic alopecia patients compared to a sham device, suggesting it could be an effective treatment option.

ATR12-351 ointment safely delivers LEKTI protein to the skin, reducing enzyme activity in Netherton syndrome.

This article reviews the genetic and phenotypic characteristics of Trichothiodystrophy and discusses the associated DNA repair defects, but does not report new clinical findings.

A deep learning model was developed to help diagnose trichothiodystrophy by analyzing hair patterns.

This study found that glycolytic metabolism and lactate production are crucial for hair follicle stem cell activation, and manipulating these processes can stimulate the hair cycle.

Low-level laser therapy seems to promote hair growth but requires more research to confirm its effectiveness.

This study suggests that coexisting LSS and TSPEAR variants might contribute to a complex phenotype of congenital hypotrichosis and ectodermal abnormalities in a child, and highlights the need for cautious interpretation of genotype-phenotype links and the potential value of broader genetic testing.

In this case report, a 22-year-old female was diagnosed with follicular Dowling-Degos disease based on clinical and histological findings, with symptoms including skin lesions confined to hair follicles. The report emphasizes the importance of differentiating this rare variant from similar conditions for proper management.

This case report discusses the diagnostic challenges and management options for three siblings with 46, XY DSD due to type 2 5-α reductase deficiency, highlighting the genetic basis and impact on their quality of life.

Laser Lax is a new tool that measures scalp looseness accurately and comfortably.

This study identified genetic variations in the DSG4 gene among sheep, revealing valuable markers for assessing their impact on wool traits.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.
