Pumpkin seeds may help expel parasites, but findings are retracted.

This case report describes a 56-year-old woman whose nonscarring alopecia, consistent with alopecia areata with follicular mucinosis, resolved completely after treatment with oral prednisone.

This study found that a key gene signature, including FGF11, highlights the immunologic nature of keloid lesions, distinguishing them from normal fibroblasts and scars.

Cancer treatments can cause skin-related side effects that may affect patient quality of life and require changes in treatment.

In this report, a 61-year-old woman with vitiligo showed significant improvement after tofacitinib treatment but developed lung adenocarcinoma, highlighting potential cancer risks associated with JAK inhibitors.

This study found that both superficial cryotherapy and intralesional corticosteroid injections significantly improved hair growth in patients with alopecia areata, with similar efficacy between the two treatments, establishing cryotherapy as a simple and noninvasive treatment option.

This study concluded that controlled micro-injury induces hair regeneration and vitiligo repigmentation in mice, potentially through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This article reviews the structure, genomic organization, and pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 and discusses current efforts in prevention and treatments for COVID-19 without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses transplantation of melanocyte stem cells for vitiligo treatment and reports no new clinical results; it suggests the procedure could be effective in reactivating melanocyte precursors for repigmentation.

In this study, researchers developed a dissolvable microneedle patch combining HA-TEMPO and Portulaca oleracea L.-derived nanoparticles, which effectively reduced oxidative stress and inflammation in an atopic dermatitis model while restoring immune balance, suggesting a promising treatment strategy.

This study found that topical application of tideglusib in a bacterial cellulose-based hydrogel showed positive effects on the healing of palatal wounds in rats.

This review discusses progeria, focusing on its pathogenesis, major symptoms, and management strategies, and includes a clinical case of a girl with the disease confirmed by genetic testing; it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, balding men reported an average willingness to pay around $30,000 to transition from complete baldness to having a full head of hair.

This study found that a simplified classification based on clinical and morphological features may aid in the diagnosis and initial management of inherited keratinizing disorders, although genetic analysis is essential for definitive diagnosis.

This study describes vitiligo as an autoimmune disease marked by depigmented skin and mucosal patches, and reviews its complex pathogenesis and diagnostic features. Treatment aims for disease control and repigmentation through various topical and systemic therapies, phototherapy, and surgical options, emphasizing personalized, multimodal approaches.

In this thesis, researchers explored ways to enhance the management of myotonic dystrophy type 1 by investigating the genetic inheritance patterns, especially small-sized repeat expansions, and assessing cardiac care, energy expenditure, and body composition in affected individuals.

In this study, researchers identified high levels of multidrug resistance in E. coli samples from broiler chickens in Malang Regency, with all positive samples resistant to multiple antibiotics including Erythromycin, Bacitracin, and Amoxicillin.

This study found that co-culturing dermal papilla cells in a 3D structure with adipose-derived stem cells may enhance the expression of hair inductivity markers compared to 2D cultures.

This study introduced a reproducible human model using 3D-SeboSkin technology to study hidradenitis suppurativa, allowing better maintenance of skin integrity and replication of biomarker expression patterns compared to traditional skin cultures, suggesting its value for further research.

UV radiation may cause DNA changes in skin, certain UVB therapy helps psoriasis, a new gene mutation is linked to mild piebaldism, different immune cells affect psoriasis, a drug promotes hair growth, and some cancer drugs could treat skin barrier issues.

A new surgical technique using vellus hair grafts effectively treated vitiligo without causing unwanted hair growth.

This article presents a case history of hair loss in a 16-year-old girl and provides no new research findings.

This article contains news and announcements related to Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery but provides no new research findings.

This study demonstrated that skin organoids derived from human stem cells can model cutaneous tuberculosis, revealing that fibrosis development in Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected organoids is linked to the PI3K-AKT and AP1 pathways in fibroblasts, and suggesting the potential for antifibrotic treatment evaluation.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma might support brain health by enhancing glial cell function and modulating immune responses in inflammation, indicating potential as a treatment for brain disorders.

Lactic acid bacteria fermentation can turn waste into valuable skincare ingredients.

In this study, researchers explored drug repurposing as a potential strategy for treating psoriasis and identified Pioglitazone, Trimipramine, and Dimetindene as promising candidates for this indication, based on molecular docking and predictive algorithms.

This in-silico study found that Finasteride interferes with neurotransmitters and may increase psychopathology when it decomposes into a carboxylic acid similar to Cortisol.

In this case report, veterinarians observed a 16-year-old mare with symptoms including chronic weight loss, pruritus, muscle atrophy, and lameness, which gradually progressed to neurological issues despite initial treatment.

Hair restoration should focus on quality and value, not cost, to maintain the field's reputation and ensure patient satisfaction.
