This article discusses the pseudo 'fringe sign' in frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting that it is not solely related to traction, and it reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes various effects of bergamot components on multiple health conditions in humans and animals but reports limitations in their use for stress and anxiety relief in aromatherapy.

This study found that TSC2-null fibroblast cells from TSC skin hamartomas can induce hair follicle formation and hamartomatous changes in keratinocytes, with active mTOR signaling observable in a mouse xenograft model.

This study proposed that the tiger tail phenomenon in trichothiodystrophy hair is caused by regular undulations of hair fibers, altering the optical properties seen under polarized light.

This study found that custom alloplastic implants achieved a 95% success rate in reconstructing large cranial defects from warfare-related injuries, but frontal defects near airways and orbits showed higher infection and implant removal rates.

This review found that most studies support the effectiveness and safety of using hyaluronic acid fillers and laser treatments together for facial rejuvenation, but highlights that the evidence is limited to small, nonrandomized studies and additional research is necessary.

This retrospective review of the U.S. military's teledermatology program from 2004 to 2012 found that timely consultations helped avoid unnecessary medical evacuations and facilitated necessary ones for service members and coalition partners.

A fungal infection can look like a different scalp condition in teens, leading to wrong treatment until proper tests are done.

This review explores the cellular dynamics of graft rejection in vascularized composite allotransplantation and discusses how understanding these processes might lead to innovative treatments for managing rejection.

This review discusses the combination of laser hair removal and topical eflornithine for managing resistant hirsutism, providing guidance based on existing clinical data, but reports no new results.

A new mouse mutation causes skin and hair issues, influenced by another gene.

This article reviews common causes of hair loss, noting that a well-directed history and examination are often sufficient for diagnosis, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that mutations in the TRPV3 gene can cause a broader range of symptoms in Olmsted syndrome than previously recognized, including severe palmoplantar keratoderma without other classic features.

This case report describes alopecia areata dermoscopy in an African-American patient, revealing novel patterns such as a diffuse honeycomb-like pigmented network and white dots, suggesting skin color may affect dermoscopic findings.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that the expression of the oncogene SmoM2 leads to basal cell carcinoma in the ear epidermis of mice but not in the back skin, with differences in susceptibility linked to the composition of the extracellular matrix.

In this study, researchers observed a dose-dependent occurrence of persistent radiation-induced alopecia in patients with primary CNS tumors or head and neck sarcomas, noting distinctive patterns and features, and suggesting potential benefits of topical minoxidil and procedural interventions for treatment.

This study found evidence of increased DNA methylation of the androgen receptor gene in occipital hair follicles from men with androgenetic alopecia.

This review highlights that frontal fibrosing alopecia’s increasing incidence may involve immune, genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors, yet its pathogenesis remains complex and not fully understood.

Understanding tissue self-organization can improve treatments for diseases and advance regenerative medicine.

This study identified multiple factors affecting the severity of alopecia areata, suggesting they could inform a tool for measuring disease impact and guide treatment selection.

This article reviews various causes and investigative techniques for different forms of alopecia and reports no new findings.

This article reviews literature indicating that specific dermatoses manifest differently in black skin compared to lightly pigmented skin, with some conditions more prevalent or unique to black skin, emphasizing the need for tailored clinical recognition and management.

Reflectance confocal microscopy can tell apart white dots on the scalp as either sweat gland ducts or hair follicle openings.

This article reviews the use of 5α-reductase inhibitors for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia, suggesting potential benefits beyond symptom relief, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 26-year-old female with linear morphea and unique alopecia characterized by atrophic follicular remnants, resembling telogen follicles but indicating permanent alopecia, unlike typical findings in morphea-related alopecia.

This study found that a 60-second hair count is a reliable and consistent method to assess hair shedding in healthy men without alopecia.

This study identified specific reflectance confocal microscopy features that help differentiate scarring from non-scarring alopecia, providing a non-invasive diagnostic tool.

This review discusses histologic findings in alopecia and emphasizes the importance of understanding normal follicular anatomy and cycles in transverse sections, without reporting new results.
