This case report highlights a family member with a confirmed diagnosis of hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy due to a CDH3 gene mutation, emphasizing the importance of genetic testing for accurate counseling.

This article describes the development of a patient handout database by the SPD to provide reliable medical information for use by various healthcare providers; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that concentrations of haloperidol and its metabolite in human scalp hair significantly correlated with the daily dose and plasma trough levels in patients taking haloperidol.

This review provides an overview of the hairless gene in mice and humans, discussing its structure, expression, and implications for understanding skin physiology and human disorders related to gene disruption, but it reports no new empirical findings.

This case report describes a 22-year-old male with hair casts on scalp and body hair, associated with androgenetic alopecia, also affecting his sister as pseudonits.

This study found that a newly developed hemi-vascularized sandwich method significantly improved the regeneration and maturity of hair follicles compared to other transplantation approaches in rat models.

This study suggests that human induced pluripotent stem cells can be used to generate dermal papilla equivalent cells, potentially aiding hair follicle regeneration and drug discovery for hair diseases.

This review found that patients with depression generally have higher hair cortisol concentrations compared to healthy controls, while those with PTSD tend to have lower concentrations.

This abstract contains no research findings; it describes website service information and options for accessing content from JAMA Dermatology.

This study reports a rare cluster of four patients with ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting its typical dental and dermatological manifestations and the necessity of multidisciplinary management.

This update discusses guidelines for dermatology nurses and nurse practitioners on polycystic ovary syndrome but presents no new research findings; it emphasizes their role in early diagnosis through recognizing skin symptoms.

This study suggests using a handheld dermatoscope may allow for simple and efficient differentiation of eruptive vellus hair cysts by detecting vellus hair shafts, as demonstrated in a familial case involving five women.

In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.

This study suggests that DPCP treatment can be effective and safe for severe alopecia areata in children, with maintenance therapy potentially reducing relapse rates.

This study found that cortisone reductase deficiency is caused by inactivating mutations in the H6PD gene, affecting cortisol metabolism by preventing 11β-HSD1 enzyme function.

HEM-13HDC, a mix of 8 herbal extracts, helps hair grow and affects hair growth at a molecular level.

This study found that the human placenta extracellular matrix hydrogel restored the hair-inductive capacity of high-passaged dermal papilla cells, enabling them to regenerate new hair follicles when co-grafted with mouse epidermal cells.

This study developed simulated skull models and a method to assess programming tool movements, selecting three models as most clinically relevant for hydrocephalus shunt valve programming.

Polarizing light microscopy can easily and reliably diagnose congenital keratinizing disorders like Netherton syndrome.

This review discusses the challenges in diagnosing different causes of adult androgen excess and outlines current screening and management strategies but reports no new findings.

This paper outlines the chronic inflammatory skin disorder hidradenitis suppurativa, emphasizing its symptomatology, associated systemic diseases, known risk factors, and treatment strategies, including medical and surgical interventions depending on disease severity, while highlighting its significant impact on patients' quality of life.

This study suggests that the NCSTN knockout mouse could serve as an HS animal model, with tamoxifen potentially used for gene deletion in mice.

Human hair follicles have their own thyroid hormone system.

This case report documents the first known instance of nevoid hyperkeratosis of the nipple and areola with unilateral presentation in a Saudi female, diagnosed through clinical evaluation and biopsy.

This study found that hair regrowth occurred in 72.2% of alopecia areata patients treated with diphencyprone, with disease extent at baseline and duration affecting outcomes.

In this retrospective study of eight Saudi children with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets, researchers observed that adjunctive cinacalcet appeared safe and showed initial promise in improving serum PTH levels, though further investigation is needed to confirm its efficacy.

In this study, a comprehensive treatment approach involving multiple therapies was found to play a crucial role in managing hidradenitis suppurativa in patients with intellectual and developmental disorders despite practical challenges.

This study found that bipolar disorder is more prevalent in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa than in those with psoriasis or in control groups.

This study found that HPD is a potent activator of hair follicle regeneration, surpassing the efficacy of conventional minoxidil treatment by modulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling and enhancing follicular proliferation, indicating its potential as a non-invasive hair restoration therapy.

This study identified molecular differences between dysplastic nevi and common melanocytic nevi, including altered keratinocyte differentiation, increased hair follicle-related molecule expression, and distinct immune microenvironment characteristics in dysplastic nevi.
