This case report describes a 3-year-old boy with trichothiodystrophy, highlighting specific MRI findings of diffuse dysmyelination and osteosclerosis that may be unique to the disorder.

In this study, two dialysis patients with high plasma silicon levels exhibited symptoms like painful skin eruptions and unusual hair growth, suggesting silicon may influence calcium metabolism similarly to aluminum.

This case study reports on a rare form of vitamin D resistant rickets in a 37-year-old male, highlighting the condition's clinical features and the necessity for a thorough understanding of calcium and vitamin D metabolism in the diagnosis and management of metabolic bone diseases.

This case report describes a 32-year-old man who developed SCC of the common bile duct a year after receiving treatment for a malignant proliferating trichilemmal tumour on the scalp.

In this study, researchers conducted additional IHC staining on equine skin sections and found that collagen type III primarily labels the extracellular matrix, while anti-PDGFR-antibody staining highlights cells with long-shaped processes mainly arranged around hair follicles.

This case study reports a near-complete response of a proliferating trichilemmal tumor to neoadjuvant radiotherapy in a 79-year-old woman, highlighting radiotherapy's role in managing this condition when patients are unsuitable for surgery.

This study suggests that trichoscopy with a handheld dermatoscope may help differentiate temporal triangular alopecia from other localized alopecia by identifying specific hair features.

This case report details a rare instance of malignant proliferating trichilemmal tumour in a 60-year-old male, emphasizing the significance of histochemical and immunohistochemical markers for accurate diagnosis and differentiation from squamous cell carcinoma.

This report describes a case of trichodysplasia spinulosa in a renal transplant patient, characterized by unique dermatoscopic features and highlighting the need for timely diagnosis.

This study found that cryptotanshinone improved bone mass, inhibited osteoclast differentiation, and protected against kidney damage in ovariectomized rats, suggesting potential benefits for clinical use.

This review highlights the promising clinical outcomes of sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT), an antibody-drug conjugate for breast cancer that targets TROP2, demonstrating improved response rates and progression-free survival, with manageable safety concerns including primarily mild-to-moderate nausea and alopecia.

This study assessed various androgens' diagnostic effectiveness for hyperandrogenaemia in PCOS using ROC curve analysis, but it reports no specific new results.

This report presents two cases where dermatologists identified internal malignancies—small cell lung cancer and stage IIB cervical cancer—through paraneoplastic skin manifestations.

This article reports a case of hair loss and pigmentation changes in a man after using propylthiouracil alongside iodine solution for thyroid and diabetic conditions, providing clinical observations without broader conclusions.

In this study, among patients with clinically suspected appendageal tumours, histopathology confirmed their presence in 42 cases, with benign types found more frequently than malignant ones.

This study used a novel HPLC-radiomatic flow scintillation system to measure 5α-reductase activity in dermal papillae from miniaturized hair follicles of the human occipital scalp, revealing significant variability in enzyme activity across samples.

The researchers recommend considering porokeratosis as a possible diagnosis for scalp lesions since accurate identification is crucial for management and new treatments like topical cholesterol/lovastatin show promising potential for treating porokeratosis.

This review updates on various methods for hair and scalp examination, encompassing non-invasive, semi-invasive, and invasive techniques, and reports no new results.

This study compared the echocardiographic profiles of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome to those of healthy subjects using conventional methods and tissue Doppler imaging, but it reports no specific findings here.

In this study, scalp cooling therapy was found to be well tolerated and effective at improving hair preservation for Asian women with breast or gynecological cancers undergoing certain chemotherapy regimens, particularly weekly paclitaxel, compared to historical controls.

This case report describes a 46-year-old female diagnosed with hypothyroidism, presenting with symptoms including severe hair loss, and treated with levothyroxine and supplements.

This study emphasizes the necessity of confirming elevated testosterone levels detected by immunoassay with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy before pursuing more complex diagnostic evaluations.

Tiger tail banding and hair abnormalities are reliable indicators for diagnosing trichothiodystrophy.

This study suggests that BTP levels in cerebrospinal fluid might help diagnose CIDP and predict therapy response but require validation in larger cohorts.

This study investigated alkaline phosphatase activity in scalp biopsies from patients with alopecia areata and totalis, but provides no new conclusive clinical results.

In this study, intravenous corticosteroid pulse therapy for rapidly progressive alopecia areata showed that 74.5% of patients achieved a good response in the long-term, and a revised scoring system predicted relapse risk effectively in cases with preceding infectious symptoms.

This study found that ultrasonography improved preoperative diagnosis rates of pilomatricoma to 76% by identifying specific features such as inner echogenic foci and a peripheral hypoechoic rim.

This study identified the N-(iodopropenyl) derivative 13 as a promising candidate for development as a radioiodinated androgen receptor ligand due to its binding affinity.
