This study describes "alarm reaction" histologic changes in pilosebaceous structures, including regression of hair matrix and alterations in sebaceous glands, affecting follicular and sebaceous gland morphology.

This study used infrared spectroscopic imaging and scanning electron microscopy to reveal that alopecic hair has more irregular laminated structures and differing chemical profiles than normal hair, suggesting changes related to alopecia progression.

Pilocarpin can cause hair regrowth and color change in some cases but not in others, and it may have side effects in animals.

This case study examined a 72-year-old woman with unique hair shaft constrictions consistent with monilethrix, despite features atypical for this condition, ultimately reaching a diagnosis that led to successful improvement using oral minoxidil and reduced hair trauma.

This case report describes a preterm newborn with lamellar ichthyosis, detailing management with acitretin, vitamin D, and emollients, and emphasizes the importance of regular monitoring due to potential adverse effects of long-term retinoid therapy.

This letter to the editor reports a case of alopecia universalis occurring alongside minimal change nephrotic syndrome, but it presents no new clinical findings.

A 2-year-old boy has a rare hair disorder causing brittle hair and hair loss, which may improve with age.

This study describes a co-dominant E410D mutation in keratin hHb6 associated with severe hair loss and extensive papules in homozygous individuals, with variable expression in heterozygous family members.

Dermoscopy quickly and accurately diagnosed a rare hair disorder in a 12-year-old girl.

This review details pathologic changes in hair follicles, such as infundibular hyperkeratosis and inflammation, but offers no new diagnostic results.

Mutations in the hHb6 gene cause the hair disorder monilethrix.

This study reported that 39.7% of Amargosa voles had mite-associated lesions, which may severely impact their health and fitness.

This case report describes the trichoscopic and histological features observed in a 7-year-old boy with morphea en coup de sabre and details the positive response to systemic immunosuppressive therapy.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

In this study, seasonal hair loss was most pronounced in low-ranking male vervet monkeys, and changes in scrotal color and hyperpigmentation also correlated with hair loss, but underlying causes were not identified.

This study observed that during male silkmoth development, trichogen cells in olfactory sensilla undergo significant membrane recycling, contributing to sensillum structure formation in a precisely timed series of stages.

This report describes a case of two sisters with kinky, tangled hair diagnosed using trichoscopic and microscopic methods; they were treated with topical minoxidil.

This case report describes a one-year-old boy with combined occipito-linear and triangular fronto-temporo-parietal alopecia and discusses the possibility of these lesions being a variant of neonatal occipital alopecia.

This study found that excess vitamin A induced stable glandular morphogenesis and mucous metaplasia in embryonic mouse vibrissa follicles, even after switching to standard medium.

This case report describes a 10-year-old girl with lamellar ichthyosis who showed marked improvement in scaling and skin stiffness after six weeks of treatment with emollient and supportive therapy.

This case report describes a 14-year-old female patient with monilethrix who developed female androgenetic alopecia at age 23, and found that oral minoxidil treatment improved her androgenetic alopecia while leaving the underlying structural hair anomalies of monilethrix unchanged.

This study observed a new skin disease in farmed mink in Canada, suggesting that an unidentified infectious agent, in association with secondary bacterial infection, may cause the condition.

This letter discusses a trichoscopic feature called the color-transition sign for differentiating between alopecia areata incognita and telogen effluvium, and reports no new clinical results.

This study identified eight mutations in five genes associated with different aspects of ichthyosis among Tunisian patients, enhancing understanding of its genetic and clinical diversity.

This study found a significant shift to the telogen phase in the hair growth of children with classical marasmus compared to normal children, suggesting a connection to the chronicity of the condition.

This report discusses a case of ichthyosis serpentina, suggesting it as a variant of ichthyosis associated with bamboo hair, although atopy may not be a necessary component.

This study observed an outbreak of dermatophytosis caused by Trichophyton species in farmed mink in the USA, affecting primarily dark-colored kits with skin lesions.

Pili annulati is caused by a protein metabolism disorder affecting hair structure.

This report identified longitudinal grooves in the hair shafts of four children, diagnosing them with uncombable-hair syndrome.
