This source reports that Malassezia restricta appears more abundantly in fecal samples and may be associated with intestinal diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, but is also found in healthy contexts; future research could inform targeted therapies.

This case study reports a rare instance of Majocchi's granuloma caused by Candida, highlighting the patient's diabetes mellitus and kidney transplant as predisposing factors for the infection.

In this study, NIH hairless mice showed increased susceptibility to Listeria monocytogenes infection compared to NIH mice, potentially due to differences in gut microbiota and monocyte levels.

This study reported the presence of dermatophyte macroconidia directly in clinical samples from a 3-year-old boy with tinea capitis, marking the first time this has been documented. The infection, caused by Microsporum ferrugineum, was successfully treated with systemic itraconazole and topical ketoconazole shampoo.

This study developed multifunctional microneedle patches with CTB nanozymes that successfully eradicated MRSA infections in wounds by combining near-infrared laser-induced nitric oxide release and local hyperthermia, while also regulating oxidative stress, inflammation, and angiogenesis through specific signaling pathways.

In this study, rabies virus antigens were detected in the outer root sheath of the follicle-sinus complex in the muzzle skin of rabid dogs, suggesting its usefulness as an alternative diagnostic specimen.

This report describes two cases of Majocchi's granuloma in immunocompromised patients, highlighting the importance of considering this condition in such populations.

This study observed that both excessive and deficient selenium levels in a C57BL/6 mouse model were associated with hair loss and changes in hair follicles, likely due to alterations in the hair follicle cycle and increased apoptosis.

This review discusses the clinical manifestations and immune response to Rhodococcus equi infection in foals but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that 100% crude extracts of Glycyrrhiza glabra and Emblica officinalis demonstrated strong antibacterial effects against Escherichia coli.

In this study, researchers developed a hierarchically engineered microreactor that effectively combats infected wounds by releasing antimicrobials at acidic sites, eradicating MRSA while avoiding resistance, and enhancing tissue repair through immune system modulation.

This study describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

This study highlights the challenges in treating Microsporum canis infections due to variable antifungal drug efficacy and potential resistance, emphasizing the need for standardized methods to assess drug susceptibility.

This study found that using dissolving micro-needles with minoxidil promoted more hair growth in an animal model compared to minoxidil treatment alone or no treatment.

This systematic review found that toluidine blue may be valuable for diagnosing and treating specific skin tumors in the context of Mohs micrographic surgery, though literature on its use is limited and mostly qualitative.

This report describes a case of pneumonitis caused by metronidazole in a 42-year-old woman hospitalized with no known drug hypersensitivity.

This study found that supraphysiological and physiological androgen levels inhibited U937 macrophages' phagocytosis of MRSA compared to untreated controls, but AR antagonism reversed this effect, suggesting targeting AR or using 5alpha-reductase inhibitors might aid bacterial clearance in elderly males' chronic wounds.

This source reports a rare case of a 10-year-old child developing periorbital milia as an unusual cutaneous manifestation of chronic graft-versus-host disease following allogeneic stem cell transplantation, suggesting that immune-mediated epidermal disruption may lead to milia formation.

This study established a mouse model of atopic dermatitis with overgrowth of Malassezia globosa using olive oil as a vehicle, which caused severe lesions and hair follicle damage.

This study suggests that Enterococcus faecium fermentation broth may have anti-aging effects in mice, mainly through modulating gut microbiota and enhancing immunity, with the key component NlpC/P60 potentially boosting host immune responses and increasing beneficial bacterial populations.

This article reports electron microscope studies on the structure of hair and wool, but it does not present new clinical findings.

This study found that three mousse products containing chlorhexidine and varying antifungal components maintained significant antibacterial activity against S. pseudintermedius in vitro for up to 10 days, while other mousses did not show significant differences.

This study demonstrated that a strain of lactic acid bacteria from kimchi, identified as Pediococcus inopinatus, showed antibacterial activity against certain oral pathogens and effectively bleached stained artificial teeth and inhibited biofilm formation, offering potential for addressing teeth discoloration and halitosis.

Gut microbiota influences the development of alopecia areata.

This study found that in dogs with dermatological disorders, fungal dermatitis was diagnosed in 20.77% of cases, with Microsporum spp. being the most common fungal pathogen, emphasizing the need for thorough diagnostic approaches including clinical, microscopic, and cultural assessments.

This study reports that a specific transporter protein in Staphylococcus hominis is responsible for transporting a malodour precursor, thereby playing a key role in human body odor production.

In this case study, a 10-year-old boy with alopecia caused by infections with Microsporum audouinii and Microsporum canis was successfully treated with oral griseofulvine over two months, highlighting a rare co-infection.

In this study, the researchers developed a living microecological hydrogel containing Chlorella and Bacillus subtilis that showed potential in promoting the healing of infected diabetic wounds by providing continuous oxygen delivery and anti-infective properties.
