The authors reviewed cases of six children with both hair-shaft abnormalities and neurological disorders, noting that such hair defects may indicate neurological conditions, including potentially treatable metabolic errors.

This report describes a case of halo scalp ring, a pattern of transient alopecia in infants, which resolved without treatment over 17 months.

This study found that endoscopy-assisted craniectomies with postoperative molding helmets led to excellent outcomes in infants with sagittal synostosis, with low morbidity and minimal complications.

In this case report, a 2-month-old girl with tinea capitis showed significant improvement after treatment with oral griseofulvin and topical ketoconazole. The study emphasizes the importance of layered diagnostics and systemic therapy for effective management of this fungal scalp infection in infants.

This case report describes the first known instance of congenital follicular mucinosis in a newborn, diagnosed through histopathological examination of a scalp lesion.

The baby's hair loss was due to congenital syphilis, which was treated with penicillin.

This case report describes a patient with trichothiodystrophy presenting with autism, mental retardation, and seizures, characterized by distinct hair abnormalities under microscopy.

This case report describes an 11-month-old infant with Biotinidase deficiency who exhibited multifocal seizures, neuroregression, alopecia, and skin issues, highlighting prompt diagnosis and the dramatic clinical response to biotin treatment.

This study reports two new cases of Gomez-Lopez-Hernandez syndrome and suggests that trigeminal anesthesia and/or partial scalp alopecia may be key criteria for diagnosis.

This study suggests that prenatal infusion of epidermal neural crest stem cells may improve certain neural markers and reduce cortical injury in a mouse model of methylazoxymethanol-induced malformations.

This description of dystrophy hypotrichosis associated with juvenile macular dystrophy provides an overview of this rare disorder characterized by short hair from birth and progressive loss of central vision but reports no new findings.

This case report describes a 1.5-month-old baby with Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims syndrome, manifested by skin and ocular abnormalities along with developmental delays and hearing loss observed later, highlighting the syndrome's progression and need for multidisciplinary management.

This article describes a rare case of infantile ring-shaped scalp alopecia and discusses differential diagnosis, approach, and preventive measures, but presents no new clinical results.

This report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, indicating a new genetic variant associated with the disorder.
