In this case study, hemodialysis was reported as an effective treatment for a cat suffering from minoxidil toxicosis, leading to the cat's full recovery over an 11-day hospitalization period.

This case study highlights the risks of ingesting topical minoxidil, demonstrated by a 24-year-old male who accidentally consumed 1500mg due to a language barrier, leading to a temporary rise in creatinine levels but no lasting kidney damage.

This review discusses the potential link between selenium supplementation and symptoms of chronic selenium toxicity, such as hair loss and nail dystrophy, due to excess intake leading to disruptions in hair and nail protein structure.

This study observed that tissue-engineered skin, using VEGF165 gene-modified cells embedded in astragalus polysaccharide-containing 3D printed scaffolds, enhanced early vascularization, and collagen and hair follicle regeneration, leading to improved skin repair in nude mice with full skin defects.

This study found that a neem-based herbal formulation may be more effective than ivermectin in treating sarcoptic mange in dromedary camels, leading to complete recovery without scarring or keratinization.

This case report describes a severe Sarcoptes scabiei infestation in a stray FIV-positive cat, which typically is a non-permissive host for the mite, leading to considerable clinical recovery after treatment.

This study found that using a collagen sponge with lincomycin reduced inflammation and pathogen presence in alveolar osteitis more effectively than iodoform gauze, leading to faster socket healing.

This case report describes a 64-year-old postmenopausal woman with hirsutism due to a rare case of bilateral diffuse ovarian Leydig cell hyperplasia, leading to normalized testosterone levels and improved glycaemic control following surgery.

This study examined how different surgical techniques tailored to individual patient characteristics affected outcomes in secondary female hairline correction surgery, finding that patient-specific approaches can lead to satisfactory results.

This case report highlights that celiac disease may cause levothyroxine malabsorption in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and a gluten-free diet can lead to improvement in thyroid hormone absorption.

This case study identified low iron stores, potentially linked to heavy menstrual periods, as a trigger for diffuse nonscarring alopecia in a 31-year-old woman, leading to a diagnosis of telogen effluvium, for which iron supplementation was prescribed.

In this study, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania found that increasing FGF9 levels in wounded mouse skin can lead to the growth of hair follicles.

This study found that men receiving negative appearance-related commentary are more likely to experience negative psychological outcomes, while positive feedback tends to lead to better outcomes despite encouraging appearance-change behaviors.

In this study, researchers using a Treg-specific HuR-deficient mouse model found that the RNA-binding protein HuR is crucial for stabilizing Foxp3 mRNA, affecting Treg function and immune regulation, with HuR disruption leading to impaired Foxp3 expression and potential autoimmune dysfunction.

This study found that thermoporometry measurements effectively assessed hair porosity, showing that bleaching increases overall pore volume by adding smaller pores, while prolonged bleaching leads to fewer but larger pores likely due to pore-merging.

In this case report, a 36-year-old woman was diagnosed with iatrogenic Cushing Syndrome caused by topical steroid use, leading to skin ulcers, diabetes, and anemia. Her condition improved after discontinuing the steroids and receiving appropriate treatment.

This case report suggests that Rituximab and high-dose immunosuppressive therapy may be effective for treating severe cutaneous lupus erythematosus like TEN-like ACLE, leading to remission and recovery.

This study observed that improving male lower urinary tract symptoms was associated with a lower risk of death, with a 1-point improvement in symptoms leading to a 4% reduction in mortality risk.

In this study, researchers observed that Vdr-knockout mice experience hair cycle arrest during the catagen stage, leading to alopecia, with persistent epithelial strands forming in the hair follicles, indicating Vitamin D receptor's role in regulating hair follicle regression and regeneration.

In this study, researchers explored the molecular and cellular traits of avian reticulate scales, finding that they lack localized stem cell niches for regeneration, unlike other scale types, leading to repair but not regeneration after wounding.

This study found that iodine deficiency, iodine excess, or the presence of antithyroid substances affected growth and behavior in Wistar rats, leading to various symptoms such as lethargy and alopecia.

Following COVID-19 vaccination, this case report observed that a 31-year-old male displayed a significant abnormal autoimmune response, leading to suspected undifferentiated connective tissue disease possibly overlapping rheumatoid arthritis and SLE, despite negative autoimmune markers prior to surgery.

This study reviewed literature on using vegetable oils to prevent skin aging, highlighting their antioxidant properties and their role in combating free radicals, which leads to extrinsic aging, while also noting Brazil's important contribution to this field with its rich natural resources.

This study found that in alopecia areata, treatment with the oral JAK-inhibitor tofacitinib decreased clonally expanded CD8⁺ T cells in the scalp, but many expanded clones did not completely disappear, potentially leading to relapse after stopping treatment.

This study found that the protein Formin 2 helps regulate cell-to-cell transport in thale cress by stabilizing actin filaments at plasmodesmata, with its absence leading to increased permeability and vulnerability to viral infections.

This study developed a mouse model to mimic PHGDH gene copy number gain, finding that increased PHGDH expression leads to abnormal melanin production, which may offer insights into its role in melanoma.

This case report highlights that dermatoscopy and histopathological analysis were crucial for accurately diagnosing Lichen Planopilaris in two patients, leading to a correct diagnosis after initial misdiagnoses.

This study is the first to report that apremilast may be effective in treating refractory lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, though some patients experienced adverse effects leading to discontinuation.

This study observed that using a basement membrane matrix significantly improved hair follicle reconstruction in a mouse model, leading to quicker hair formation and a greater number of hair shafts compared to a control medium.

This study found that combining strip harvest surgery and follicular unit extraction in one session increased the total number of hair grafts harvested, leading to patient satisfaction.
