This report details a rare case of late-onset, bilateral nevus comedonicus on the eyelids in a 79-year-old man, discussing its clinical presentation and histopathologic features without presenting new research findings.

This study found that hair coloring, waving, and ironing were associated with increased hair abnormalities compared to untreated hair in Iranian women.

This case study presented a 16-year-old male with dermatosis neglecta and obsessive-compulsive disorder, where his skin condition improved after proper cleansing and psychiatric treatment, suggesting that DN may also indicate underlying psychiatric issues.

In this study, distinct androgen excess subtypes were identified in women with PCOS, with the adrenal androgen excess cluster showing significantly higher rates of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, suggesting 11-oxygenated androgens as potential drivers of metabolic risk.

This study found that physoxia improved hair follicle functions in co-cultures of dermal papilla cells and melanocytes by enhancing their biological activities and promoting hair growth and pigmentation.

This case report identifies a novel CDH3 gene mutation associated with hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy in a 13-year-old Turkish girl, highlighting implications for future genetic analysis and counseling.

This report documents a novel alanine to valine substitution in the GJB2 gene in a Japanese girl with severe keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome, suggesting a potential link to her severe recurrent infections and immunodeficiency.

This study observed that adult female acne may be associated with hyperandrogenic features and polycystic ovary syndrome, though routine hormonal tests often do not show abnormalities other than PCOS.

This case report presents the first known instance of a nodular eyelid mass associated with demodex infestation, suggesting the need to consider this parasite in differential diagnoses.

This study, conducted in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, found that women with PCOS who consumed diets high in carbohydrates, fats, and refined sugars had a significant prevalence of obesity and struggled with weight loss, with fast food consumption notably associated with facial acne.

This study found that individuals with alopecia areata showed differences in otoacoustic emissions, suggesting potential links between the condition and auditory dysfunction, with significant gender and age group variations observed in hearing test results.

In this study, researchers observed that in barn owls, the relationship between black feather spot size and testosterone levels varied by age and sex, suggesting involvement of genes regulating both traits rather than direct influence of testosterone on feather coloration.

This study reported that the Undiagnosed Disease Program at Ghent University Hospital successfully provided definite diagnoses for 18% of referred adults with suspected rare diseases, primarily through genomic technologies.

Mutations in the TSPEAR gene cause a new form of ectodermal dysplasia affecting hair and tooth development.

This study found that individuals with both schizophrenia and obesity showed reduced PER3 gene expression amplitude and lower melatonin levels compared to normal-weight controls, suggesting dampened circadian rhythms linked to irregular sleep. Hair follicle sampling was effective for assessing these molecular rhythms.

This lecture discusses osteoporosis and its connection to internal skeletal dynamics but reports no new research findings.

This report describes three Saudi sisters with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, who exhibited typical features of the condition along with unusual gynecological anomalies.

This study found that the absence of Sostdc1 in mice alters mammary gland and hair follicle development, particularly by increasing vibrissae numbers and causing unusual nipple-like structures.

This case report describes a 16-year-old girl with HAIR-AN syndrome requiring a multidisciplinary approach, including lifestyle changes and hormonal treatments, to manage symptoms and prevent systemic effects.

This case report describes a father with HOXC13-associated pure hair-nail ectodermal dysplasia, presenting with severe nail dystrophy affecting all digits and notable hypotrichosis or complete alopecia.

In this study, researchers discovered that a newly identified oligosaccharide, OG6, promotes hair growth by activating hair follicles, achieved by revealing its hidden activity from a larger molecule structure.

This study indicates that the OVOL1-OVOL2 axis may play a significant role in hair follicle differentiation and growth, potentially serving as therapeutic targets for hair disorders like alopecia and in the tumorigenesis of pilomatricoma.

This study observed that hair fibers in older women become more curved with age, decreasing hair luster due to their disordered alignment and structural differences between the convex and concave sides.

This report presents a case of a seven-year-old girl with porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus manifesting as hyperkeratotic verrucous papules on her left foot.

This study found that the OXI1 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana is vital for activating key protein kinases and is necessary for oxidative burst signal responses like pathogen resistance and root hair growth.

This study is the first to identify a de novo heterozygous frameshift insertion variant in the ARID1B gene as a cause of Coffin-Siris syndrome with an association to excessive early-onset high myopia.

This paper argues that the Equality Act's definition of 'disfigurement' should include a wider range of appearance-altering conditions beyond just scarring, due to overlaps with appearance and disability concepts.
