In this case study, researchers found that treatment with sarolaner led to complete recovery from generalized demodicosis in six dogs within four weeks, resolving clinical signs without adverse reactions.

This study reported a case of equine ringworm infection in a 2-year-old horse caused by Nannizzia gypsea, confirmed through culture and SYBR-Green real-time PCR techniques, demonstrating that qPCR allows specific detection of dermatophytes more rapidly than conventional methods.

In this case study, a shih tzu dog developed comedones and epidermal cysts on the abdominal skin following laparotomy, potentially due to the implantation of epidermal fragments into the dermis during surgery.

This case report describes a 7-year-old female from the Middle East with monilethrix, highlighting the disease's rarity in this population, characterized by brittle, sparse hair and keratosis pilaris.

This case report provides the first evidence of clinical and histopathological findings of cutaneous diffuse basaloid follicular hamartomas in a young domestic short hair cat.

This article discusses dermatophycosis, a fungal infection affecting various animals, and outlines its transmission, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention methods, but reports no new research findings.

This review discusses the role of androgen metabolism and perifollicular inflammation in the progression of androgenetic alopecia and reports no new clinical results.

A man developed hair loss from testosterone treatment but improved with additional medication.

The document concludes that diagnosing hair loss requires evaluating multiple histological features, as no single feature is definitive on its own.

Polarized microscopy is a quick and free method to correctly identify types of hair loss.

Understanding hair structure and growth is key for diagnosing hair diseases accurately.

The study found that pili bifurcati causes hair to intermittently split into two branches, each with its own outer layer.

This review highlights that microscopic analysis of human scalp hair remains crucial in forensic science for crime scene investigations, despite limitations such as subjectivity and potential misidentification, and notes that integrating DNA analysis and digital imaging could enhance accuracy.

This review discusses the use of hair microscopy in diagnosing hair-related conditions, highlighting techniques and common applications, but presents no new experimental results.

This study concludes that elastic tissue staining is the most reliable method for identifying scarring patterns in alopecia biopsy specimens, and polarized microscopy may provide specific insights for nonscarring alopecia.

This article reviews how to take a thorough dermatological history, conduct examinations, and discusses diagnostic tools; it reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews how to properly take a dermatological history and conduct physical examinations for skin rashes and malignancies, discussing commonly used diagnostic tools and the Dermatology Life Quality Index system.

This paper discusses the use of Digital Volumetric Imaging with fluorescent dyes to visualize and compare the interior structures of six different virgin hair types, reporting no new clinical results.

This case report describes how a 23-year-old woman experienced eyebrow thinning and hair loss linked to cosmetic use, with diagnostic tests confirming follicular damage. Discontinuing the product led to eyebrow regrowth, highlighting potential risks from cosmetics and the value of non-invasive diagnostics for evaluation.

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.

Advanced imaging techniques are crucial for accurately diagnosing Monilethrix, a rare hair disorder.

The exam tested knowledge on various skin-related topics for CME credit.

This study suggests that label-retaining cells in the hair follicle contribute to follicular renewal, indicating a specific role in the hair cycle by proliferating during the late telogen phase.

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 aging in Korean individuals is associated with changes in hair diameter and surface structure, as observed through atomic force microscopy.

This review discusses the role of hair microscopy in diagnosing alopecia, stating that while it excludes diagnoses related to hair breakage, it only confirms nonspecific short anagen in alopecia cases.

This study found that postmortem root banding in hair is likely due to the degradation of the intermacrofibrillar matrix in the cortex, with no damage to the cuticle observed.

This paper presents an RGB video microscopic system to monitor optical properties of hair shafts and follicles in vitro, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers suggest that digital microscopy using visible light could offer a more objective approach to diagnosing hirsutism by quantifying terminal hair, with future research needed to assess its usefulness in women with the condition.

This study presented a case of tinea capitis in a 4-year-old without typical symptoms and traced the infection to Microsporum canis carried by domestic cats, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, especially in households with pets.
