This study observed that POMP is strongly expressed in the root sheath hair follicles of Liaoning Cashmere goats and its expression can be regulated by certain factors, which may influence cashmere growth.

This study found that children with cancer showed more deviation from typical facial morphology compared to healthy controls, although the differences were not enough to distinguish patients from controls based on facial asymmetry alone.

According to this study, forensic DNA phenotyping using Next Generation Sequencing can reliably predict certain visible traits like eye, hair, and skin color, though its routine implementation in forensics is hindered by incomplete genetic knowledge and ethical concerns in some countries.

This study found that certain genetic variations in the OPN gene may be linked to atopic dermatitis and a higher prevalence of asthma in Caucasians.

0.1% piroctone olamine in hair tonics effectively treats dandruff.

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 describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

In this study, researchers observed bright colored patches in the hair of diabetic patients under cross polarized light, suggesting a potential non-invasive diagnostic method for diabetes.

This article reviews pre-18th century approaches to treating hair disorders and reports no new research findings.

This brief report describes a case of Fox-Fordyce disease in a prepubertal girl but reports no new clinical findings.

This educational activity reports no new research findings; it aims to help physicians assess and improve their clinical skills through self-evaluation and continued medical education.

This study found pathogenic mutations in genes EDA, EDA1R, and EDARADD in 101 out of 124 hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia patients, revealing 23 novel mutations and indicating genetic variability.

This report discusses the various causes and clinical assessment of madarosis, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and diagnosing associated vision or life-threatening conditions, without presenting new findings.

In this study, optical coherence tomography detected hair follicles at the dermoepidermal junction not visible on the scalp surface in alopecia areata patients, suggesting OCT may help monitor treatment response.

A single long white eyelash is a rare but benign condition.

This study identified a splicing-site deletion in the DCAF17 gene associated with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in a large consanguineous pedigree, leading to typical phenotypic features.

This article reviews organotypic skin culture systems and their applications in dermatological research, highlighting their ability to model human epidermal conditions in vitro, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes the ophthalmic complications of common periocular aesthetic treatments but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the importance of recognizing potential side effects.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that human hair follicle outer root sheath cells release ATP, serotonin, and histamine in response to mechanical stimulation, which subsequently activates surrounding sensory neurons.

In this study, individuals with a c.1072C > T mutation in the EDAR gene showed more hair shaft deformations compared to non-mutation carriers, highlighting EDAR's role in hair follicle development.

Older adults commonly experience wrinkles, itchy skin, psoriasis, fungal infections, skin growths, grey hair, hair loss, and nail ridging, but no skin cancer was found in this group.

In this study, adult albino rats on a vitamin A deficient diet developed ocular symptoms like xerophthalmia and photophobia within four weeks, without showing loss of dark adaptation.

This study observed that the lower part of vibrissa hair roots in adult Wistar rats receives a richer blood supply and structural protection, compared to the upper part.

This case report describes a 56-year-old woman with wooly hair and skin lesions, who experienced reduced plaque size and thickness after using 6% salicylic acid topically for three months.

This study found that frequent attenders at Cork University Hospital's emergency department accounted for a disproportionate amount of visits and were more likely to require admission for further care.

In this case study, a 19-month-old infant with palmoplantar keratoderma and nail dystrophy was found to have a desmoplakin gene mutation, leading to cardiomyopathy by age 7, illustrating diagnostic challenges and the potential link between skin, dental, and cardiac anomalies.

The authors reviewed cases of six children with both hair-shaft abnormalities and neurological disorders, noting that such hair defects may indicate neurological conditions, including potentially treatable metabolic errors.

This study observed that amelanotic melanocytes from human hair follicles appeared morphologically immature, suggesting they might not transfer melanosomes into keratinocytes.

In this study, the prevalence of clinical polycystic ovary syndrome among high school girls in Sambalpur, Odisha, was found to be 12%.

This case report highlights a novel NR5A1 gene variant associated with a severe 46,XY disorder of sex development, stressing the importance of genetic screening in similar cases.
