This study observed that among Iraqi women with hirsutism, most had hypothyroidism and elevated hormone levels, particularly DHEAS and testosterone, with acne being the most common associated clinical feature.

This case report from Qatar highlights the failure of traditional diagnostic approaches in a young woman with severe hair loss, emphasizing the potential benefits of DNA-guided nutrigenomics and the importance of compassionate communication in addressing psychosocial distress.

This study found that patients with diffuse hair loss had significantly higher serum levels of inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential role of immune system activation in the pathogenesis of this condition.

In this study, zinc oxide nanoparticles combined with Carbomer940 hydrogel significantly accelerated wound healing and hair growth in Balb/c mice, showing a 56.9% increase in wound closure rate compared to MEBO ointment and control groups, without causing damage or infection.

This study reported that treating alopecia patients with thyroxin tablets to reduce TSH levels, along with hair growth therapies, improved hair follicle growth and hair structure.

This report describes three cases of white piedra of scalp hair, identifying Trichosporon inkin and Trichosporon mucoides as the fungi responsible, which are uncommon causes of this condition.

This research suggests that innate lymphoid cells type 1 (ILC1) may contribute to the development of alopecia areata, alongside CD8+ T cells, by disrupting hair follicle immune privilege and promoting features of the disease.

This case report describes a 68-year-old patient with mild Sars-Cov2 infection who developed rapidly progressing bullous and necrotic skin lesions leading to osteomyelitis.

The researchers reported that DHT may reduce the inflammatory responses induced by C. acnes in androgen-sensitive human sebocyte cells, suggesting a potential link between androgens and infection in sebaceous disorders.

This study suggests a connection between the unfolded protein response and upregulation of NKG2D ligands in stressed hair follicles, highlighting a potential role of PRDX5 in alopecia areata pathogenesis.

In this study, Mpzl3-/- mice developed severe seborrhea-like dermatitis with skin inflammation, indicating MPZL3's role in the skin condition's development, independent of adaptive immunity.

This review explores skin microbiome composition and its ecological interactions, highlighting the role of host and environmental factors in shaping the microbial community, but provides no new research findings.

In this study, researchers isolated and identified diverse endophytes from plants in Asia, finding that these microorganisms have significant potential for producing useful metabolites, including enzymes and antibiotics.

This article covers the classification and roles of various microbes, such as those involved in fermentations and environmental processes, but it does not provide new research results.

This review discusses the potential regulation of signal transduction pathways by microRNAs in animal cells, aiming to identify biological processes that may be influenced by miRNA-mediated regulation, but it reports no new experimental outcomes.

This review discusses the role of intrinsic skin signals, rather than serum signals, in regulating melanin synthesis and hair pigmentation, but reports no new experimental data.

This review discusses various therapeutic strategies targeting platelet-derived growth factor signaling in diseases like cancer and atherosclerosis, and evaluates existing treatments without presenting new clinical data.

This article reviews the recognition and management of Staphylococcus aureus toxin-mediated diseases, but it does not present new research findings.

Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.

This article discusses hair loss linked to lithium treatment but reports no new clinical findings.

This review details historical advancements in understanding and treating superficial fungal infections, with notable milestones in identifying causative agents and developing effective treatments, but it reports no new findings.

This study found that 1-day itraconazole therapy was more effective for acute vulvovaginal candidosis than for recurrent cases, where relapses occurred despite no yeast resistance.

This study presents evidence that specific thymus-derived peptides affect human hair follicle growth, identifying thymulin as a potential hair growth stimulator despite interindividual response variations.

This study found that fluconazole was associated with telogen effluvium in both a rat model and human patients, although retinoic acid levels were not identified as a causal factor.

This study found that Pleuropterus cilinervis extracts and animal milk fermented with Lactobacillus rhamnosus promoted hair growth in mice, suggesting potential applications in hair loss treatments.

This study reported that C. procera leaf extracts showed antifungal activity against several dermatophytes, with ethanol extracts demonstrating slightly greater efficacy than aqueous extracts.

In this preliminary study, selenium-resistant bacteria and selenium-treated pea sprout extracts showed minimal inhibitory effects on the dandruff-associated fungus Malassezia furfur compared to controls, suggesting potential for further investigation.

This review examines the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of dermatophytosis (ringworm) in dogs and cats, highlighting the role of Microsporum canis and the public health implications of zoophilic dermatophytes, affecting roughly 20-25% of the global population.

This study used Cisd2 knockout mice models and found that these mice display premature aging characteristics and an increase in dysfunctional neutrophils, suggesting Cisd2's role in calcium homeostasis and neutrophil function via interactions with Calnexin and SERCA.

This study in Mosul City, Iraq, examined mange infestation in rabbits, finding that 43.1% of 130 rabbits were infested, with Sarcoptes scabiei var. cuniculi being most prevalent, and noted no significant gender differences but age-related variations in infestation rates.
