This study found that the loss of Msx2 in knockout mice led to phenotypes similar to Peters anomaly and microphthalmia, suggesting that MSX2 plays a critical role in anterior segment development of the eye.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had higher serum osteopontin levels and more eye abnormalities compared to healthy controls, although visual acuity was not affected.

This case study found that a 7-year-old girl's crystalline cataract had sulfur-containing amino acids likely cystine, and was associated with abnormal hair conditions.

This review outlines diagnostic possibilities for diffuse, nonscarring hair loss in women and reports no new clinical findings.

This study characterized hair from a patient with a ribosomopathy and identified distinct differences, including reduced hair thickness and lipid content, compared to family members.

This retrospective review of hair samples from pediatric patients indicated that microscopic hair examination might be a useful first-line investigation for diagnosing various genetic conditions.

Treat pediatric skin issues with accurate diagnosis, multidisciplinary team, and various treatment options.

This study found that overexpression of the mineralocorticoid receptor in a mouse model led to premature epidermal barrier development, keratinocyte apoptosis, and postnatal alopecia, indicating new roles for MR signaling in skin physiology.

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

This review discusses the role of hair microscopy in diagnosing alopecia, stating that while it excludes diagnoses related to hair breakage, it only confirms nonspecific short anagen in alopecia cases.

This review discusses the relationship between ectodermal alterations and immunodeficiencies, particularly the roles of hyper-IgE syndrome, ectodermal dysplasia, and FOXN1 gene mutations, but it presents no new research findings.

This case report describes a patient with lichen nitidus whose lesions improved following treatment with oral astemizole and topical steroids, although spontaneous resolution remains a possibility.

Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.

Oral retinoids can cause side effects ranging from mild to severe, including birth defects, and require careful monitoring and contraception.

In this case report, the authors suggest an association between prolonged finasteride use and anterior subcapsular cataracts, as observed in a 43-year-old man, marking the first reported instance.

This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

This case report details a 65-year-old woman who developed malignant melanoma in her right eye socket following previous eye trauma, treated by orbital exenteration.

This review discusses potential causes of alopecia and hair overgrowth in pediatric patients, detailing diagnostic techniques and treatments, but presents no new research findings.

The document concludes that hair analysis is not good for assessing nutrition but can detect long-term heavy metal exposure.

Genetic changes in mice help understand skin and hair disorders, aiding treatment development for acne and hair loss.

Addressing biological changes in lipids, metabolism, and microbiota may help treat hair loss in young Chinese females with oily scalps.

In this animal study, researchers found that the simultaneous deletion of ERBB2 and ERBB3 in mice results in impaired skin differentiation, inflammation, and sebaceous gland alteration, leading to skin lesions, while highlighting potential side effects in cancer therapies targeting these receptors.

This review highlights that various targeted cancer therapies are associated with specific ocular side-effects, emphasizing the importance of awareness among ophthalmologists for timely diagnosis and management.

This study observed that Ptprq mutant mice exhibit significant abnormalities in hair bundle structure and vestibular dysfunction, suggesting similar issues may contribute to hearing loss and vestibular problems in humans with PTPRQ mutations.

This review discusses androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata through a systems biology lens, emphasizing the role of multi-omics data integration to explore molecular mechanisms and potential therapeutic strategies, but offers no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 3-year-old male with X-linked ichthyosis and associated neurologic abnormalities, identifying an unusual cortical development malformation and suggesting that abnormal hair banding may assist diagnosis.

In this study, researchers observed that while there were no significant microvascular abnormalities in the macula of PCOS patients, the parafoveal thickness was significantly increased in most quadrants.

This review article explores the potential systemic nature of alopecia areata, highlighting the association with ocular abnormalities and suggesting that shared pathogenic pathways may lead to eye symptoms occurring at younger ages than usual.

This study describes three new cases of MCOPS6 with BMP4 variants, noting expanded phenotypic variability but no clinically apparent microphthalmia in these individuals, which is commonly reported in the disorder.

This study found that both reflectance confocal microscopy and optical coherence tomography can visualize detailed hair follicle abnormalities in various skin disorders, but larger, higher-quality studies are needed for clinical implementation.
