The number of dermatologists in the US increased from 1995 to 2011, but they were unevenly distributed, mainly in urban areas, and areas with higher income and education levels.
research Meeting Report: The 15th Annual Meeting of the European Hair Research Society
The conference highlighted new diagnostic tools, the role of genetics in hair loss, and emerging treatments.
research Sun Protection Policies and Behaviors Among U.S. Child Care Centers
Finasteride, a hair loss drug, is linked to increased suicidal thoughts, particularly when used for hair loss.
research Sunscreen: Cosmetic or Medical Therapy?
The conclusion is that finasteride is linked to an increased risk of suicidal thoughts and a higher risk of completed suicide when used for hair loss.
research Measurement of Level of Vitamin D and Antioxidants in Discoid Lupus Erythematosus Patients
Patients with Discoid Lupus Erythematosus have lower vitamin D and antioxidant levels and higher oxidative stress.
research Suicidal Behaviors (Suicidal Ideation, Suicide Attempt and Completed Suicide) in Patients Treated with Finasteride for Hair Loss: Results from the U.S. FDA Adverse Event Reporting System Database
research Interferon in the Treatment of Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
Interferon, especially alfa interferon, is an effective treatment for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with manageable side effects.
research The Treatment of Alopecia Areata
Different treatments for alopecia areata have unpredictable results and varying success rates.
research Patched-Associated Tumors: Modifier Genes and Pathogenesis
The document concludes that the development of certain tumors is influenced by genetic background and that a specific gene modification can lead to tumor regression and reduced growth.
research Melanocyte Pigmentation – Friend or Foe on the Route to Melanoma
Darker skin provides more protection against UV damage and cancer.
research Male Pattern Baldness and Risk of Incident Skin Cancer in a Cohort of Men
Male pattern baldness is linked to a higher risk of certain skin cancers, especially on the scalp.
research Male Pattern Baldness and Risk of Incident Skin Cancer in a Cohort of Men
Male pattern baldness is linked to a higher risk of certain skin cancers, especially on the scalp.
research Desmoplastic Melanoma Presenting as an Alopecic Patch in a Young Patient
A man had a rare skin cancer that looked like a bald spot.
research Targeted Therapy in Melanoma
New treatments for advanced skin cancer are improving patient outcomes, but drug resistance and finding the right treatment combinations are still big challenges.
research Models for Skin Cancer
The document discussed the three most common types of skin cancer: malignant melanoma, basal cell carcinoma (BCC), and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Malignant melanoma, originating from melanocytes, was noted as the most lethal. BCC, the most common cancer, was debated to potentially arise from hair follicle keratinocytes and was associated with mutations in the sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway, suggesting a link to failed organogenesis. SCC, also arising from keratinocytes, was described as more aggressive than BCC, with the potential to form lethal metastases, unlike BCC, which rarely metastasizes. The document also covered the use of in vivo and in vitro models for studying these skin cancers.
research Inhibition of Mitochondrial Respiration Prevents BRAF-Mutant Melanoma Brain Metastasis
Stopping mitochondrial respiration can prevent brain cancer spread in skin cancer patients, and plant compound β-sitosterol could help achieve this.
research Cutaneous Toxicities of New Treatments for Melanoma
New melanoma treatments can cause skin side effects, including skin cancer and rashes, but combining treatments may reduce these risks.
research Hair and Nail Adverse Events During Treatment with Targeted Therapies for Metastatic Melanoma
Targeted therapies for advanced skin cancer often cause hair and nail problems, which need managing to avoid changing the treatment dose.
research Cutaneous Manifestations of Dabrafenib: A Selective Inhibitor of Mutant BRAF in Patients with Metastatic Melanoma
Dabrafenib can cause skin growths and sometimes low-grade skin cancer.
research Anticancer Potential of Musa × Paradisiaca as Cervical Carcinoma and Malignant Melanoma
Banana (Musa × paradisiaca) may help fight cervical cancer and skin cancer.
research Sentinel Lymph Node Status Is the Strongest Independent Predictor for Disease-Free and Overall Survival in Patients with Thick Melanoma
The health of the sentinel lymph node is the best indicator of survival for patients with thick skin cancer.
research Obesity and the Skin
Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.
research Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma Incidences Analyzed Worldwide by Skin Type Over Advancing Age of Males and Females: Evidence Estrogen and Androgenic Hair Are Risk Factors
Estrogen and androgenic hair increase melanoma risk, especially in European-ancestry individuals.
research Uncovering the Role of UV Exposure History and Genetics in Determining Skin Sun Damage
UV photography can help identify people at higher risk for skin cancer, and male pattern baldness at age 45 is linked to a higher risk of certain skin cancers.
research Cutaneous Reactions to Chemotherapeutic Drugs and Targeted Therapy for Cancer
Targeted cancer therapies often cause skin reactions, so dermatologists must manage these effects.
research Metastatic Melanoma of the Tongue: A Rare Case
An 86-year-old man had a rare tongue melanoma but refused treatment, showing the need for early cancer detection and treatment.
research LOP14
The document concludes that rib-sparing techniques in breast reconstruction have limited benefits, sentinel lymph node biopsy is needed for desmoplastic melanoma, certain hair preservation methods improve graft survival, partial turbinectomy effectively reduces nasal obstruction, nipple shields with irrigation may reduce capsular contracture, and thicker malignant melanomas have a higher risk of non-skin cancers.

research P62: An Increase in Breslow Thickness: Coronavirus or Coincidence?
The pandemic likely caused delays in skin cancer assessments, leading to fewer early diagnoses and thicker melanomas.
