This case report highlights an atypical presentation of vitamin B12 deficiency in a 28-year-old man with reversible symptoms including localized hand hyperpigmentation and megaloblastic anemia, resolved after B12 supplementation.

This study suggests that novel diagnostic, preventive, and treatment approaches for autoimmune diseases like alopecia areata may be developed by identifying hub genes, and highlights the usefulness of machine learning and bioinformatics in finding new disease biomarkers.

This review discusses the composition, preparation, and applications of autologous platelet and extracellular vesicle-rich plasma, highlighting its potential benefits and the need for further research, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews the emerging non-inflammatory roles of regulatory T cells in the skin and reports no new clinical findings, suggesting broad biological influence beyond traditional immune functions.

This case report details a woman with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome who experienced notable dermatological symptoms, including evanescent hyperemia, which improved with the use of an oral angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist.

This report discusses a case of pediatric trichotillomania, detailing its clinical presentation and distinguishing histopathological characteristics, ultimately diagnosing the condition in a 7-year-old boy with nonscarring alopecia.

This study found that total serum IgE levels were elevated in patients with alopecia areata compared to controls, suggesting a possible involvement of IgE and Th2 cytokines in its pathogenesis.

This review explores the biological applications and pharmacokinetics of decursin, a compound isolated from Angelica gigas, highlighting its potential neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties based on in vitro and in vivo studies.

This study observed that serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency is significantly associated with Alopecia Areata in a North Indian cohort, particularly among urban residents, suggesting that screening for this deficiency could enhance disease management.

This study found distinct hair metal profiles in Parkinson's disease patients, with lower iron and copper, higher manganese and arsenic, and explored their link to gut dysfunction and microbiota dysbiosis, suggesting hair metal analysis as a promising diagnostic tool.

This review highlights the potential of microalgae as sustainable sources for nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals, emphasizing their applications in functional foods, dietary supplements, and cosmetics for roles such as anti-aging and photoprotection in alignment with sustainability principles.

This study in a nine-year-old boy from Lebanon identified a gene mutation (c.1066dup p.(Arg356Profs*16)) associated with a rare inborn error of immunity, characterized by craniosynostosis, jaundice, and several other symptoms, expanding the known genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of this condition.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma may improve patient-reported outcomes for scar symptoms like pain and itching at six months, although no significant changes in scar appearance were observed at three months.

This review discusses the modern production methods, mechanisms of action, and various uses of platelet-rich plasma in medicine, highlighting promising applications but noting the need for more high-quality research.

In this study, nanoparticles developed with Minoxidil-loaded thiolated β-CDs showed promise for topical scalp use, as they significantly improved drug retention on hair and displayed no irritation in rabbits.

This study on Sdr16c5/Sdr16c6-null mice found that inactivating these genes significantly increased Meibomian gland secretions and altered lipid profiles but had a subtle impact on sebogenesis, suggesting the genes control a bifurcation point in meibogenesis pathways.

This veterinary case study of a dog with myxedema coma found clinical and pathologic changes including severe thyroid atrophy and marked atherosclerosis consistent with the diagnosis.

In this study, human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells promoted Achilles tendon repair in rabbits by upregulating collagen types I and III, suggesting potential as a treatment for tendinopathy.

This study validated that six out of seven tested topical formulations for alopecia are compatible for 6-month use, suggesting they may be practical for compounding pharmacies.

This study reviewed clinical trials and found that low-level laser therapy significantly increased hair diameter or density in both men and women with pattern hair loss compared to a sham device, though the involvement of industry relationships in some studies suggests cautious interpretation.

This study found that low-level laser therapy may significantly improve androgenic alopecia in both men and women, either alone or alongside treatments like minoxidil and finasteride.

This study explores novel alopecia treatments targeting lactate dehydrogenase pathways and improving drug delivery through technologies like phototherapy and soluble microneedles, though practical application challenges remain, necessitating further research for clinical use.

This review discusses the potential of repeated low-level red-light therapy to inhibit myopia progression through metabolic effects, highlighting its molecular and cellular impact, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes the first use of laser capture microdissection to confirm that atypical lymphocytes in a folliculotropic mycosis fungoides case involving the central nervous system were part of the same tumor clone.

This study developed and validated a simple, accurate, and sensitive HPTLC method for estimating minoxidil and aminexil in topical solutions, demonstrating effective separation and linear measurement of these compounds with %RSD under 2% and high regression coefficients.

This study found that topical application of recombinant human MG53 protein mitigated nitrogen mustard-induced skin injuries in mice by preserving epidermal integrity and hair follicle structure.

This case report describes a 12-year-old boy with severe skin scaling due to novel compound heterozygous null truncation mutations in the TGM1 gene, resulting in loss of transglutaminase 1 activity.

This study found that low-level light therapy significantly increased hair density and diameter in androgenetic alopecia patients compared to a sham device, suggesting it could be an effective treatment option.
