This study describes and characterizes four cases of alopecia areata induced by immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in cancer patients, highlighting the importance of recognizing and managing these hair-related adverse events.

This review discusses the incidence, prevalence, and risk factors for epidermal cancer and premalignant epidermal neoplasia, and it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses recent discoveries about the role of Eda and other TNF-related cytokines in skin appendage development and reports no new experimental results, highlighting developments since the last comprehensive summary in 2003.

This study reported that women with PCOS had higher levels of depression, anxiety, and perceived stress compared to those without PCOS, with stress potentially mediating these associations.

This review discusses mammalian models of epimorphic regeneration to define a vertebrate regeneration blastema, concluding that regenerative failure likely stems from cellular responses to the microenvironment after injury, not progenitor cell availability, and calls for targeted modification studies in mammals to advance human regeneration.

This study found that NF-κB signaling may connect injury response to regenerative processes in zebrafish hearts, potentially aiding the development of cardiac regenerative therapies in humans.

This article reviews advances in feather development and regeneration, including pattern formation, stem cell biology, and evolution, but presents no new experimental results.

This study found that epidermal Wnt production is crucial for forming the skin's spinous layer through a BMP-FGF signaling cascade, although Wnt from basal cells is not needed for their differentiation.

This review discusses the complex pathophysiological and clinical aspects of COVID-19, including dermatological findings and their association with SARS-CoV-2 infection but reports no new clinical results.

The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.

This study describes a case of vitamin D resistant rickets in a young girl due to end organ unresponsiveness, highlighting a possible new subtype of the disorder with distinct clinical features.

This study found that FLCN deficiency in mice muscles led to increased mitochondrial biogenesis and a metabolic shift towards oxidative phosphorylation, with a similar advantage observed in FLCN-null kidney cancer cells.

This review discusses the various skin lesions associated with COVID-19, which vary in type and severity, and reports that these lesions can appear before other symptoms and typically resolve spontaneously.

This review examines experimental and clinical evidence on PDRN, a drug derived from salmon DNA that acts via the adenosine A2A receptor and shows promise for tissue repair and treatment of diabetic foot ulcers in regenerative medicine.

Many COVID-19 survivors experience long-term symptoms like fatigue and sleep issues, needing ongoing medical support.

This study describes a case series of nine patients experiencing symptoms of selenium toxicity after consuming a liquid dietary supplement with an excess amount of selenium.

This article discusses treatment approaches for female pattern hair loss and concludes that available medical treatments are effective in reversing or stabilizing the condition in most cases of mild-to-moderate severity.

This review examines skin symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of zinc deficiency in children, proposing a classification system but reporting no new clinical results.

This review explores how androgens and growth hormone influence the development of terminal hairs and sebaceous glands, attributing variability in hirsutism and acne to differing genetic sensitivities to androgens, but reports no new experimental data.

This article discusses toxic epidermal necrolysis, highlighting its high mortality rate despite aggressive treatment, and notes controversy over using high-dose systemic corticosteroids as therapy.

This paper provides evidence supporting the formation of new hair follicles in adult humans, building on findings previously demonstrated in rabbits.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African-descent females, discussing possible causes, associated styling habits, and potential treatments, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors call for further research.

This study concludes that fetal skin cells can significantly enhance wound healing and reduce scarring when used to treat severe burns and various wounds in children.

In this study, women with idiopathic hirsutism who took finasteride for 9 months experienced a significant reduction in hirsutism scores compared to those receiving a placebo, with minimal side effects.

Oral dutasteride and topical pimecrolimus can safely and effectively treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, leading to significant hair regrowth.

This paper discusses the use of dermatoscopy as a fast, noninvasive technique for diagnosing hair shaft disorders and reports no new results; the authors highlight its advantages over traditional microscopy methods.

This study reports that permanent and severe alopecia is a newly identified complication of the FEC 100–docetaxel regimen used for adjuvant breast cancer treatment.

This study found that in thin cutaneous melanomas, tumor regression is associated with a higher risk of sentinel lymph node involvement.

Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.

This review discusses the role of mechanical forces in skin homeostasis and disease development, including their impact on conditions like keloids, androgenetic alopecia, and acral melanoma, and reports no clinical results; the authors propose modifying these forces as a potential therapeutic strategy.
