This study describes a case of cyclic thrombocytopenia where a novel MPL gene mutation may contribute to the disease, with gene expression changes in platelet and neutrophil genes preceding platelet count fluctuations.

Lichen planopilaris is a rare, chronic condition causing hair loss, mainly in middle-aged women, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent baldness.

This research highlights the potential of non-coding RNAs as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in dermatology, while experimental studies on a unique GVM case suggest CCM2L may modulate disease severity, advancing understanding of genetic mechanisms in rare skin disorders.

In this case report, the patient was diagnosed with oral lichen sclerosus following a detailed clinical and histological examination and referral to dermatology, and it underscores the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in managing this rare condition and its associated risks.

This analysis of England's National End of Life Care Intelligence Network reports that the initiative improved palliative care using national data, addressing disparities in care especially among the poorest patients and those from non-white ethnicities over 14 years.

This review discusses clinical studies on low-level laser therapy for various types of hair loss and suggests it may be promising for those unresponsive to conventional treatments, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that hairlessness in nude mice may be due to insufficient expression of phospholipase C-δ1, a molecule essential for normal hair development downstream of the Foxn1 gene.

This review suggests that low-level light therapy can promote hair growth in patients with androgenetic alopecia, but more research is needed to standardize treatment parameters and assess long-term safety and efficacy.

Low level laser or LED therapy combined with infiltrations may help hair growth.

In this study, researchers observed that knocking down the LPA 4 receptor in zebrafish embryos led to vascular and lymph vessel development abnormalities, including edema and decreased heartbeats.

This study identified a novel nonsense mutation in the VDR gene in two patients with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets and alopecia, leading to resistance to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.

Low-dose oral minoxidil is safe for alopecia patients, even those prone to edema.

In this case report, a 59-year-old woman experienced burning sensations and developed atrophic, hypopigmented, ivory papules and plaques on her palms and soles over three years, which worsened after walking for extended periods.

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 study reported discovering a novel missense variant in a case of autosomal recessive woolly hair in a 31-year-old Chinese woman, which significantly reduced secretion of the encoded protein, likely leading to disease by impairing its hydrolytic function.

In this study, the researchers compared the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of dihydroartemisinin in nanostructured lipid carriers versus in solution, finding longer mean residence times and variable organ accumulation with the nanostructured lipid carriers.

This study found that combining diagonal earlobe crease with lipoprotein(a) provides strong diagnostic value for coronary heart disease.

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.

In this randomized controlled trial involving breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, this study investigated the efficacy of low-level light therapy for preventing hair loss, measuring outcomes like hair count and patient quality of life, but the abstract does not report specific results.

The researchers reported finding a recessive nonsense variant in the EGFR gene responsible for perinatal lethality in the "Blonde d'Aquitaine" cattle breed, prompting the development of a screening test to help eradicate this genetic flaw.

This case report describes a 52-year-old black woman with diffuse scalp swelling and thinning hair attributed to a large increase in the thickness of scalp subcutaneous fatty tissue.

This case report highlights a 12-year-old boy with twenty nail dystrophy in isolation, emphasizing the need for thorough physical exams to distinguish nail disorders and provide appropriate management and counseling on the condition's benign nature and good prognosis.

This report details a case where diffuse lichen planopilaris and female pattern hair loss in a 32-year-old woman mimicked diffuse alopecia areata, highlighting the diagnostic value of dermoscopy-guided biopsies and the importance of timely treatment to prevent disease progression.

This case report identifies a novel nonsense mutation in the CDH3 gene associated with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy.

In this study, a 532 nm laser at 15 J/cm² increased the proliferation and tenogenic differentiation of tendon-derived stem cells in rats, mediated by Nr4a1 up-regulation.

This article reviews the characteristics and classification criteria of cutaneous lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical findings.

This case report details a rare instance of granulomatosis disciformis chronica et progressiva affecting both skin and lymph node tissue in a 31-year-old man.

This abstract discusses two types of hereditary vitamin D metabolism defects, VDDR I and VDDR II, and reports on their distinct characteristics and treatment responses, without presenting new clinical data.

This study found that low-level laser therapy increased hair density in men with androgenetic alopecia, with even greater improvements seen when combined with finasteride.
