Monilethrix Syndrome causes fragile, beaded hair that breaks easily and needs early diagnosis for better care.

This case report documents a rare instance of body-focused repetitive behavior in a 37-year-old male physician who compulsively pulled hair from his thighs due to exam stress, highlighting the variability in presentation and demographics of such disorders and the potential for psychiatric comorbidity.

A 4-year-old girl had a rare hair disorder affecting only part of her scalp.

This study describes an adaptive hair extension method designed to improve comfort, durability, and aesthetics, based on analysis of hypothetical client profiles and their biomechanical tolerance.

This study reports a unique case of coinheritance of BRCA2 and CYLD pathogenic variants in a man with metastatic malignant cylindroma, suggesting that recognizing such genetic profiles in rare conditions can provide new treatment options, including the potential use of therapies targeting BRCA deficiency.

This study suggests that analyzing hair care product components left on hair using GC and GC-MS may provide a more objective forensic comparison than morphological examination.

This study found that integrating the Theory of Planned Behaviour with the Stimulus-Organism-Response framework improved the prediction of intentions to buy embarrassing products, with subjective norms being significant across drugstore, internet, and multi-channel environments.

This study reported that polarized dermoscopy was better for visualizing vascular patterns, scaling, and reticular pigmentation, while nonpolarized mode better documented features like black dots and tapered hair in various hair and scalp conditions.

This study reported that connective tissue nevi show distinctive dermoscopic and RCM features, with RCM being particularly helpful for diagnosing lesions of less than one year in duration.

This case study describes a patient with rapidly progressing follicular mycosis fungoides, highlighting its unusual histology and challenges in diagnosing it against cutaneous B-cell lymphoma.

This article discusses a hypothetical model of androgenic hair trichophore composed of various chemical components, but it reports no new empirical findings; the authors emphasize the model's potential impact on hair cosmetics.

A man had an unusual type of hair loss that didn't match known patterns and didn't improve with treatment.

This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.

In this study, CCCA patients were found to have higher odds of metabolic, autoimmune, atopic, and psychiatric comorbidities compared to matched controls.

This study reports various immunophenotypical patterns in apocrine mixed skin tumors, resembling the structures of hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and apocrine glands.

This article reports a case of linear lichen planus developing along the lines of Blaschko during intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide therapy for alopecia areata multiplex.

Mouse hair element patterns vary, making it unreliable for tracking time.

This case report highlights that CCCA can present with multifocal patchy hair loss in younger men of African descent, suggesting the need for careful evaluation when diagnosing atypical alopecia patterns.

This review explores the complex interrelationships among different properties of natural hair fibers and underscores the need for a holistic taxonomy to improve data interpretation across disciplines, but it reports no new experimental results.

This study found that longer-chain cationic surfactants like BTMC provided superior hair conditioning by reducing combing forces, but did not reverse oxidative hair damage, emphasizing the role of molecular structure in surfactant performance.

This case study reports a rare coexistence of alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris in a 37-year-old woman and highlights the importance of targeting active scalp areas for biopsy to appropriately manage coexisting scarring and non-scarring alopecias, with distinct therapeutic priorities.

This study observed that the thinning and structural abnormalities in monilethrix-affected hair occur at the internodes due to possible periodic dysfunction of the hair matrix, particularly in the cortex.

This abstract discusses clinical techniques for diagnosing female pattern hair loss and reports no new research findings.

Ludwig pattern hair loss results from varying androgen sensitivity, causing fewer thick hairs and more thin hairs.

Comma hairs are a new sign for identifying scalp fungal infections.

This report describes a rare case of folliculotropic and syringotropic CD8 mycosis fungoides with unusual widespread mucosal involvement.

This study found that the revised BASP classification for pattern hair loss, which addresses certain limitations of the original, could serve as an alternative option despite a decrease in clinical accuracy and ease of use.

This paper discusses forensic DNA phenotyping, emphasizing its ability to infer visible traits from biological samples without reference samples, but notes ethical and legal concerns related to its use.

This case report highlights a 13-year-old girl with Turner syndrome who developed multiple pilomatrixoma, suggesting a possible link between the two conditions.
