In this report of a pediatric alopecia case, cortisone and ACTH gel treatments did not result in significant nail improvement, but there was considerable scalp hair regrowth.

In this case study, nail changes and skin lesions helped diagnose a 60-year-old man with advanced cardiac amyloidosis, highlighting the importance of considering amyloidosis in differential diagnoses for similar nail abnormalities and assessing for systemic involvement.

This study assessed the use of a levered nail trimmer, finding that it may improve ease of nail trimming, enhance personal comfort, and potentially benefit general health and wellness, including reduced injury risk for bald individuals of all ages and backgrounds.

Adjusting the medication tacrolimus resolved a boy's red nail beds after a stem cell transplant.

Terbinafine is the most effective medicine for fungal nail infections, especially for diabetics and those with weak immune systems.

Terbinafine 250 mg is the most effective treatment for fungal nail infections.

NB-002 is a promising new topical treatment for fungal nail infections, showing better results than a non-medicated option.

This report describes a case in which intramuscular cyanocobalamin treatment reversed skin and nail pigmentation changes and premature gray hair caused by vitamin B12 deficiency due to pernicious anemia.

This study mapped monilethrix, a hereditary hair and nail disorder, to the type II keratin cluster on chromosome 12q, marking the first primary human hair disorder localization and implicating defects in "hard" keratins.

Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.

This study found that applying 2% topical minoxidil resulted in a greater nail growth rate compared to 5% minoxidil and placebo over eight weeks, with no observed side effects, suggesting 2% is an effective concentration for accelerating nail growth.

A woman experienced hair loss, nail changes, bone marrow suppression, and low blood protein after taking azathioprine.

In this study, researchers identified slow cycling label retaining cells in nail and sweat gland appendages, showing stem cell characteristics similar to hair follicles but with distinct features.

This study found that NB-002 demonstrated clear antifungal activity and clinically significant nail clearing in subjects with distal subungual onychomycosis and ≤50% nail involvement, compared to a vehicle treatment.

This study found that the novel antifungal emulsion NB-002 demonstrated significant antifungal activity and nail clearing in patients with distal subungual onychomycosis involving ≤50% of the nail.

This study found that Hoxc13 mutations in mice cause defects in hair, nail, and tongue structures, with the most noticeable issue being brittle hair leading to alopecia.

New mutations in hair keratin genes can change hair structure and cause monilethrix, with nail issues more common in certain gene mutations.

This case report introduces 'onycholemmal carcinoma' as a designation for a slowly growing malignant tumor of the nail bed epithelium in a 69-year-old male, with no recurrence or metastasis observed over four years after treatment.

This case report describes two patients with a likely new type of pachyonychia, characterized by nail thickening and severe generalized hypotrichosis, possibly linked to a mutation in a hard keratin.

In this study, Flii overexpression in mice enhanced fingertip regeneration and nail formation after both distal and proximal amputations, suggesting a role in digit and hair follicle regeneration possibly involving Wnt signaling.

This report discusses a 77-year-old man with primary onycholemmal carcinoma, a rare nail bed tumor, emphasizing its slow growth, diagnostic challenges, and treatment typically involving surgical removal.
