This report describes two cases of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides with syringotropism, highlighting indolent progression despite the disease's typically aggressive nature, suggesting aggressive treatment might not be necessary.

This study found that using a clipping device for hair removal leads to less skin barrier disruption and reduced bacterial colonization compared to a disposable razor, potentially improving postoperative wound management.

This study found that applications of a shampoo and mousse containing plant extracts improved coat quality in dogs with a chronic keratinisation disorder without affecting skin hydration or hair lipids over the study period.

This study found that in a mouse model of psoriasis, depleting CD169⁺ macrophages led to milder symptoms and decreased inflammation, suggesting these macrophages play a crucial role in psoriasis development.

This review discusses laser and energy-assisted drug delivery as a treatment for alopecia and concludes that although all studies show positive effects, some reports indicate no superiority over existing monotherapies.

In this study, researchers observed that the YH complex, made from Astragalus membranaceus and Cinnamomum cassia, promoted hair regrowth and increased hair shaft thickness in mice, potentially through increased growth factors and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, suggesting its use for treating various forms of hair loss.

This case report details an 80-year-old woman with circle hair potentially linked to acquired ichthyosis from multiple myeloma, where a prescribed topical treatment led to clinical improvement.

This study found that dermatologic referrals significantly improved patient management, but there was a low diagnostic agreement between referring clinicians and dermatologists, highlighting the need for better training of non-dermatologists.

This study found that the incidence of anterolateral leg alopecia among men aged 36-52 may be higher than previously reported.

This article discusses various patterns of hair loss associated with lupus erythematosus, emphasizing the importance of identifying the specific type to aid in classifying systemic lupus erythematosus.

This study reported that trichoscopy revealed distinctive patterns across different autoimmune bullous diseases, suggesting it can be a useful preliminary diagnostic tool for differentiating these conditions.

This review discusses different forms and patterns of alopecia associated with lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight distinct features of these conditions.

This review discusses the expression patterns and biochemical roles of Msx and Dlx genes during development but does not present new research findings.

This study found that male pattern baldness and a history of severe acne were inversely associated with testicular germ cell tumors, while taller height showed a positive association.

This study found that PTEN regulates the number and genomic stability of hair follicle stem cells in the skin, with its deficiency leading to increased stem cell accumulation and senescence through interactions with BMAL1 and BMI-1.

This study found that loss of epidermal PPARγ in mice altered the expression of many genes related to skin inflammation, keratinization, and sebaceous gland function, indicating its key role in maintaining skin homeostasis.

This study documented distinct expression patterns of stem cell markers LGR5 and LGR6 in various human skin tumors, highlighting differences in their potential roles and contributions to tumor development.

The authors observed that the patterned melanoderma on the hairless scalp of fair-skinned Caucasian men with androgenic alopecia resembled similar patterns seen on facial skin.

This article reviews the consumption patterns and historical use of Allium vegetables like onions and garlic for their potential antimicrobial and cardiovascular benefits, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report highlights a rare occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma developing at the site of synthetic hair implantation many years later, emphasizing the need for vigilance when examining chronic scalp lesions in patients with such procedures.

In this case study, researchers documented chronic dermatitis and ulcerative lesions in a 70-year-old Syrian man following chlorine gas exposure during the conflict, highlighting the need for healthcare planning and registries to manage long-term effects in affected populations.

This case report highlights an unusual presentation of mycosis fungoides with photo-exacerbated lesions and a rare CD4+/CD8+ immunohistochemical phenotype, complicating diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that ablative fractional carbon dioxide laser treatment improved skin fibrosis, reduced skin hardening, and enhanced hair follicle growth in localized scleroderma patients, with significant improvements across several clinical measures and no severe adverse effects observed.

In this case report, a 65-year-old woman with non-small cell lung cancer experienced scarring alopecia with papulo-pustular lesions on the scalp due to gefitinib treatment, marking it as a rare instance of gefitinib-induced erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp.

In this study, researchers highlighted the complexity of managing psychocutaneous disorders, emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach involving dermatologists, psychiatrists, family physicians, and social support to address associated psychiatric diagnoses, risk factors like suicide, and ensure effective treatment.

This study evaluated a novel hand-held low-level light therapy device for treating mild-to-moderate acne, finding it significantly reduced inflammatory lesions and moderate acne severity without severe adverse reactions, while also reducing Cutibacterium acnes viability in vitro.

A 90-year-old woman's hand lesion was a rare, aggressive skin cancer treated successfully with surgery.

This study found that dexamethasone nanocrystals significantly increased drug penetration into skin compared to a traditional cream formulation, suggesting potential benefits for treating inflammatory skin conditions.

In this study, gene expression analysis of plucked hair follicles from scalp lesions was sufficient to differentiate chronic discoid lupus erythematosus from psoriasis and healthy controls, suggesting a non-invasive diagnostic potential.

This report describes a rare case of a three-day-old male with ichthyosis hystrix type of epidermal nevus, featuring specific skin and hair symptoms but no nail or skeletal abnormalities.
