This study suggests that trichoscopy may assist in diagnosing pemphigus, particularly for scalp-specific lesions, by identifying certain characteristic features.

This study found that switching patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension from benzalkonium chloride-latanoprost to preservative-free latanoprost maintained intraocular pressure control and improved tolerability, potentially enhancing treatment adherence and quality of life.

This study identified distinctive trichoscopic features that may aid in diagnosing loose anagen hair syndrome, such as rectangular black granular structures, solitary yellow dots, and a predominance of follicular units with single hairs.

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 article examines the emerging role of dermoscopy in skin cancer diagnosis and reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight its potential to enhance dermatological practice.

This study found that scalp involvement in pemphigus is linked to greater disease severity and longer times to achieve both clinical and serological remission, suggesting it may require more aggressive treatment.

This study found that follicular acantholysis is a common histopathological feature in pemphigus, with differences in depth between pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus lesions that may aid in diagnosis.

This article discusses melanocyte development from neural crest cells and reports no new experimental results; the authors suggest a broader range of functions for melanocytes than previously recognized.

Trichoscopy is a helpful and quick method to diagnose hair loss without shaving.

Hair loss affects 20% of people, more in men and those over 35, and is often associated with a sensitive scalp.

A nonchemical lotion was found effective in killing head lice and their eggs in most people, indicating it could be useful for managing head lice.

Trichoscopy is a helpful and quick method to identify different types of hair loss in women.

This study found that comma hairs are a distinctive feature of tinea capitis caused by Microsporum canis, distinguishing it from alopecia areata, which is characterized by exclamation mark hairs.

In this study, quercitrin was reported to promote hair growth and cell viability in cultured human dermal papilla cells by enhancing cellular energy metabolism and growth factor production via MAPK/CREB signaling.

This research found that spontaneous and depilation-induced hair growth result in biologically distinct telogen phases in murine skin, with variations in thickness, pigment content, and hair follicle composition.

This review discusses recent developments in targeted melanoma therapies, including BRAF/MEK/ERK pathway inhibitors and challenges like resistance and skin toxicities, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that Houttuynia cordata extract may promote hair growth by stimulating dermal papilla cell proliferation and extending the anagen phase through enhanced energy metabolism and gene expression changes.

This review summarizes recent findings on scalp involvement in pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus, highlighting diagnostic methods and their underlying histopathological, immunopathological, and clinical features, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that mild-to-moderate COVID-19 was not associated with worsening in patients with pre-existing alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers found that overweight and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed adverse changes in glucose metabolism over time, highlighting the importance of early intervention to prevent cardiometabolic diseases.

This study observed that M. domestica larva-derived chitosan and gut extracts enhanced wound healing and collagen deposition in both immunocompetent and immunosuppressed mice, indicating potential benefits for combined therapy.

This article reviews the use of dermoscopy as a noninvasive tool for diagnosing various types of nonscarring alopecia but presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that supplementation with micronized and emulsified ferric pyrophosphate effectively improved lab test results and reduced iron deficiency symptoms in patients aged 19-70, with the majority reporting good tolerance and few side effects.

This pilot study found that using platelet rich fibrin in combination with dressings after revascularization surgery in patients with critical limb ischemia accelerated wound healing compared to dressings alone.

This chapter reviews trichoscopic criteria and diagnostic features for various hair and scalp conditions, emphasizing their utility in non-invasive diagnosis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that rice bran ash extract enhanced melanin biosynthesis-related protein expression in a 3D hair follicle-like tissue model and hair follicle organ culture, suggesting potential for future research in melanogenesis.

This study found that treating a 3D hair dermal papilla model with rice bran extract and electromagnetic fields increased melanogenesis, suggesting potential for vitiligo and white hair therapies.

This study synthesized existing research on 11 tropical seed varieties, underscoring their potential in food, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries due to their phytochemicals and nutrients, such as phenolics and vitamins, which could reduce waste and support sustainable practices.

Using Indian marking nut sap for hair loss caused a skin rash on a woman's face.

In this study, researchers documented the first instance of alopecia in bats within the Puebla region, specifically affecting two Artibeus jamaicensis and one Choeronycteris mexicana, possibly linked to environmental stress from human activities interfering with their nutrition.
