In this study, researchers found that topical application of 3-β-methoxy-Δ18-oleanene (miliacin) in mice sped up the recovery of hair follicles damaged by cyclophosphamide, moving them into a new hair growth cycle more quickly compared to controls.

This study found that monilethrix in three unrelated European families is linked to the type II keratin gene cluster on chromosome 12q13, with no evidence of defects in type I keratins.

This study found that eccrine duct dilation is significantly more frequent in cicatricial alopecias compared to noncicatricial alopecias, possibly due to the scarring process.

This study reports that a novel gain-of-function mutation in TMEM173, combined with polymorphisms in TMEM173 and IFIH1, results in a distinct clinical phenotype with features of SAVI, including alopecia and photosensitivity.

This report from SRUC VS highlighted a suspected case of Schmallenberg virus infection in a calf born to an imported heifer, noting consistent clinical signs and seroconversion in the dam.

This study found that certain trichoscopic features like white peripilar sign, yellow dots, and scalp pigmentation are positively correlated with the severity of androgenetic alopecia in Chinese patients.

This study identified and described a new form of alopecia termed "macular alopecia," predominantly affecting young Hispanic/Latinx females, characterized by small macules on the scalp with a high rate (63%) of spontaneous resolution in about five months.

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.

This study describes a Japanese family with monilethrix and found no clear genotype/phenotype correlation in cases with the E413K mutation in hHb6.

In this study, researchers found that the prevalent Glu 410 Lys mutation in hHb6 and a new Glu 403 Lys mutation in hHb1 are linked to monilethrix, suggesting a mutational hotspot in type II hair keratins.

This study reported that severe hair disturbances in infants and young children are associated with acute vitamin deficiencies in tropical America, unlike the milder cases observed in the United States.

In this study, researchers found that mogamulizumab-associated rashes and alopecia are common in patients treated for mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome and may be linked with a good treatment response.

This study found that trichoscopy revealed significant differences in certain variables, such as the brown peripilar sign and white peripilar sign, which may aid in diagnosing early and late stages of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that in lichen planopilaris, the basement membrane zone of the hair follicles exhibited disrupted and discontinuous staining patterns, potentially contributing to scarring and irreversible hair loss.

This report describes a rare case of scalp kerion due to microsporosis in a Portuguese child, noting the unusual combination with other microsporid features and treatment details.

This article is a letter to the editors about a novel observation regarding chemotherapy-induced alopecia and does not include an abstract with new research results.

This review discusses the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of hair shaft disorders and suggests diagnostic tools like trichoscopy and light microscopy, but reports no new clinical results.

This review examines systemic drugs that can cause changes in hair color and emphasizes the importance of reporting these adverse events, but it does not include new clinical outcomes.

This study observed that using serial sectioning and d-PAS staining improved detection of Malassezia folliculitis, notably in lesions on the trunks of male patients.

Results are not reported in this abstract, which describes a man in his 30s with a 4-year history of patchy hair loss on the right lower leg and associated itching, highlighting the use of dermoscopy in his examination.

This study found that bovine slick mutations may enhance heat stress responses in mice but do not lead to the expected hair phenotype changes.

Malnutrition can cause unusual eyelash growth and hair loss.

This study observed that CDH3-related congenital hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy presents with childhood-onset progressive chorioretinal atrophy and universally thin and sparse scalp hair.

This report describes a case of a man developing hair changes, including Beau's lines and Pohl-Pinkus constrictions, following ABVD chemotherapy.

This report presents a 12-year-old male with symptoms indicative of Marie-Unna type hereditary hypotrichosis, characterized by a specific pattern of hair loss evolving with age.

This study found that female pattern hair loss and acute telogen effluvium have distinct trichoscopic and histochemical characteristics, which may aid in their diagnosis and differentiation.

This abstract contains no research results; it's a website navigation menu and institutional policy information from JAMA Ophthalmology.

Ichthyoses are skin disorders causing scales, with treatment depending on type and severity.
