This study reported that dermoscopy can aid in distinguishing secondary syphilis from other skin conditions by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, though there are no standardized criteria; further research is needed to confirm these findings.

This study found that dermoscopy can identify typical features of Malassezia folliculitis, such as folliculocentricity and perilesional erythema, offering a valuable tool for diagnosing this condition in clinical settings.

This study describes a form of lymphocytic mural folliculitis in tigers causing hair loss, concluding it may represent a nonspecific hypersensitivity reaction distinct from T-cell lymphoma.

This report describes a case of Rothmund-Thomson type congenital poikiloderma, noting minor skin changes, hair loss, and slightly elevated lysine and cystine in the urine.

This study utilized polarized light microscopy to examine hair shafts in ten children with rare genetic disorders, such as Netherton syndrome and ectodermal dysplasia, providing valuable diagnostic insights into hair thickness, composition, and structural irregularities associated with these conditions.

Monilethrix Syndrome causes fragile, beaded hair that breaks easily and needs early diagnosis for better care.

In this study, mixed lice infestations and their associated skin changes were observed in the Egyptian lesser blind mole rat, marking the first report of such findings in this species.

This study reported three cases of tinea corporis caused by Microsporum canis in a household, linked to a domestic cat, where genetic analysis suggested a familial transmission route.

This article describes a woman's case of slowly progressive nonscarring alopecia with unique biopsy findings, suggesting the need to reexamine similar cases currently classified as chronic diffuse alopecia areata.

In this study, a thoroughbred mare exhibited a unique case of alopecia areata with lymphocytic infiltration at both the bulbar and isthmic levels of hair follicles.

This case report describes a rare instance of melanocytic matricoma, a benign pigmented papule found in sun-damaged skin of an elderly individual, highlighting its distinct clinical and pathological features.

This study reported that hair microscopy can help diagnose rare pediatric neurological diseases, as specific hair characteristics were linked to conditions like giant axonal neuropathy, Griscelli syndrome, and Menkes disease.

In this case report, a 16-year-old boy diagnosed with lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei showed improvement in facial granulomatous lesions with scarring after treatment with doxycycline, highlighting the potential need to explore treatment options for this condition characterized by asymptomatic papules on the central face.

This study found that the yellow dot pattern observed in dermoscopy of alopecia areata corresponds to inefficient follicular structures containing hair remnants, as corroborated by reflectance confocal microscopy and pathological findings.

This abstract presents supplementary materials illustrating trichoscopy in alopecia areata and scarring alopecia using different dermoscopy techniques but reports no clinical findings.

Shiny white structures in trichoscopy can indicate long-standing discoid lupus erythematosus alopecia.

This correspondence describes two patients with both epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type, and loose anagen hair syndrome, an association not previously reported in the literature.

This study suggests that congenital atrichia with papular lesions may be more common than previously thought and proposes diagnostic criteria including the observation of hypopigmented whitish streaks on the scalp.

This case report describes a 59-year-old woman with cicatricial alopecia and multiple skin lesions, including nodules and plaques, with biopsy results showing a lymphocytic infiltrate and collagen replacement.

This publication provides a standardized nomenclature for classifying microscopic lesions in laboratory rat and mouse skin, aiming to harmonize international toxicological research.

In this case report, a 22-year-old female was diagnosed with follicular Dowling-Degos disease based on clinical and histological findings, with symptoms including skin lesions confined to hair follicles. The report emphasizes the importance of differentiating this rare variant from similar conditions for proper management.

Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing and monitoring discoid lupus erythematosus by showing specific skin patterns.

This case report describes a 68-year-old woman with benign mucous membrane pemphigoid and unusual keratotic plaques on her extremities, associated with longstanding mouth and eye symptoms and phalangeal swelling.

This study found that acne lesion formation involves early hyperkeratinization and inflammation around hair follicles, creating a self-sustaining cycle that may progressively worsen acne.

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography effectively visualized key diagnostic features of classic lichen planopilaris in real time, suggesting its potential as a valuable diagnostic tool.

This case report of a 37-year-old woman with female pattern alopecia found no significant histopathological changes or follicle count improvement after three sessions of scalp microneedling.

This article discusses the clinical features of tumid lupus erythematosus and emphasizes its importance as a differential diagnosis for noncicatricial alopecia, highlighting a case similar to alopecia areata without reporting new clinical results.

This study reported that imaging characteristics of sebaceous nevus vary significantly by age group, revealing dynamic developmental changes that can be effectively identified through dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy, offering noninvasive diagnostic potential.

In this study, the researchers observed that male pattern alopecia is characterized by miniature follicles, enlarged sebaceous glands, and an increased number of mast cells, without significant abnormalities in enzyme activity.

This study observed that the keratinization pattern of trichilemmal cysts in two Japanese women may originate from the proliferation of the outer root sheath in the follicular isthmus of anagen hairs.
