Goat hair shows changes in metal levels and stress when goats move from indoors to mountain pastures.

This abstract contains navigation and subscription information for JAMA Dermatology and reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that hair loss in captive rhesus macaques varies with season, sex, and housing conditions, and is significantly correlated with HPA axis activity as indicated by faecal cortisol metabolites.

This study analyzed hair samples from marathon runners with hair loss, finding distinct patterns in mineral content and heavy metal contamination, with more male than female runners experiencing hair loss.

This study reported that a magneto-responsive transdermal microneedle system delivered Minoxidil effectively and significantly increased hair density by 800% in mice with androgenetic alopecia after 10 days.

This study discusses zinc's vital role in skin cell growth and how its deficiency can lead to acrodermatitis enteropathica, marked by symptoms like alopecia and dermatitis. It notes that similar symptoms appear in people with certain metabolic conditions, referred to as acrodermatitis dysmetabolica.

This study identified new oxidative derivatives of finasteride, including a newly discovered metabolite, by using the fungus Macrophomina phaseolina.

This study found that bitter melon leaf extract, particularly at a 10% concentration, promoted hair growth in male rabbits, outperforming the effect of a 2% minoxidil solution.

This study examined genetic adaptations in Tibetan sheep through whole-genome resequencing, identifying key genes related to hypoxia tolerance, wool color, and body size. These findings provide a foundation for future molecular breeding strategies to enhance wool quality and adaptive traits in these high-altitude environments.

This case report detailed a 71-year-old male with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome and associated membranous nephropathy, who showed a significant improvement in skin and gastrointestinal symptoms, and remission of nephropathy, after treatment with rituximab, cyclosporine, and azathioprine.

In this study investigating goat herds in Zambia, both mange and orf were detected, but with low occurrence linked to diagnostic challenges and mild clinical signs; further research, especially in conditions favoring mange mites, is recommended to better understand and manage these diseases.

In this study, ozenoxacin was found to inhibit sebum production in insulin- and 5α-DHT-differentiated hamster sebocytes in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting potential benefits in acne management by combining antimicrobial activity against C. acnes with reduced sebum production.

This study found that Swiss cattle exhibiting rat-tail syndrome are heterozygous for genetic variants linked to pigmentation and color dilution, likely due to Holstein introgression in the Simmental breed.

Biotin deficiency in monkeys causes fur and skin issues, but 20 μg of biotin daily can prevent or cure it.

In this report, researchers documented a rare complication linked to levofloxacin, used as a second-line treatment for tuberculosis, which could include various adverse events during TB therapy.

This study investigated whether individuals with psoriasis have higher MDS-16 scores and potentially more maladaptive daydreaming compared to healthy individuals.

This article discusses various dermatology mnemonics that can aid in memory retention for medical learners, with no new clinical results presented.

This study found that among patients with seborrheic dermatitis, the "dandelion" vascular conglomerate observed through trichoscopy was correlated with Malassezia scalp colonization.

This study reports that different animal species exhibit distinct hair scale patterns and elemental compositions, which can aid forensic investigations in identifying animal hair.

Isolated patchy heterochromia with pili annulati can occur without other health issues.

In this study, researchers found that exosomes derived from Pinctada martensii mucus can effectively inhibit melanin production in melanoma cells and zebrafish without adverse effects, potentially offering a promising therapeutic strategy for treating pigmentary disorders by modulating the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Iron therapy cured the boy's hair color issue.

This study found that a dietary change in common marmosets significantly reduced in vitro erythrocyte haemolysis, improved skin lesions, and promoted complete fur regrowth, possibly due to increased vitamin E levels.

This study reported that zinc nanoparticles synthesized from Monotheca buxifolia leaf extract demonstrated significant antimicrobial, antioxidant, and moderate hair growth-promoting activities, with potential use as a bacterial biosensor.

This case report describes a rare autosomal dominant hair shaft disorder, monilethrix, observed in three consecutive generations of a family, with gradual improvement noted with age.

In this animal study, topical diazoxide treatment led to increased hair thickness and follicle growth in bald stumptailed macaques without causing notable systemic side effects.

This case report describes a Balinese breed dog diagnosed with demodecosis and malasseziosis, which improved after 30 days of treatment including amitraz, ketoconazole, and supportive therapies. The findings suggest that consistent treatment and environmental management can aid in recovery from these skin conditions in dogs.
