This study observed that 2.5% of patients with mycosis fungoides or Szary syndrome experienced alopecia, predominantly within skin lesions, with scalp metastases from other cancers also potentially causing hair loss, highlighting the diagnostic value of trichoscopy in differentiating alopecia types.

This review details skin conditions in children and adolescents related to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, emphasizing mask-related acne and various cutaneous manifestations linked to infection and vaccination, with most being mild or nonspecific.

The document explains various skin conditions and their treatments.

The meeting showcased rare skin disease cases, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This review discusses how changes in hair and skin may indicate underlying vitamin deficiencies and emphasizes the need to identify populations at risk for these deficiencies; it reports no new results.

This review proposes a classification system for childhood hair loss based on clinical appearance, age of onset, and associated symptoms, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, 96% of children with CNS tumors receiving MAPK and mTOR inhibitors experienced common, treatable skin reactions, occasionally requiring therapy adjustments.

This study reported that trichoscopy revealed distinctive patterns across different autoimmune bullous diseases, suggesting it can be a useful preliminary diagnostic tool for differentiating these conditions.

This review discusses how skin lesions and haircoat changes in adult horses can indicate systemic diseases, emphasizing the need for veterinary evaluation, and reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes successful treatment of a four-year-old boy with kerion-type tinea capitis caused by T. mentagrophytes using griseofulvin, erythromycin, wet dressing, and ketokonazole shampoo, with improvement after 8 weeks.

The document concludes that managing skin conditions during pregnancy is important and requires specialized care.

This study found that both 5-ALA and Photofrin can effectively destroy human microvascular endothelial cells in vitro and cause tissue necrosis in vivo, with Photofrin showing greater efficacy at lower concentrations or power densities.

In this study, researchers observed that individuals with alopecia areata exhibited significant changes in scalp microbiota diversity and composition, which were linked to disease severity and inflammation markers, though it remains unclear if these microbial shifts are a cause or a result of hair loss.

In this case study, scurvy was diagnosed in a middle-aged man on hemodialysis with food insecurity and undetectable vitamin C levels, highlighting the diverse risk factors and persistent challenges in managing vitamin C deficiency among patients with complex medical and social issues.

This study reports a rare case of amyloid-associated alopecia, confirmed through histologic analysis, as a scalp manifestation in a patient with primary systemic amyloidosis.

This case report observed that pulmonary arterial hypertension in a man with severe vitamin C deficiency resolved after vitamin C supplementation, suggesting a potential role of vitamin C in managing this condition.

This phase II study found that a 0.05% topical dutasteride solution was more effective than oral finasteride (1 mg/day) in increasing hair count and width in males with androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks, without causing irritation.

This study found that a combined treatment using autologous scalp‐derived micrografts and allogeneic dental pulp stem cell‐derived conditioned medium was well-tolerated and improved hair characteristics in 69.5% of patients with male androgenetic alopecia, particularly increasing hair diameter and hair number per follicular unit.

In this systematic review, researchers reported that post-COVID-19 syndrome can lead to various dermatological symptoms, including skin rash, alopecia, pruritus, and dermatitis, with a notable prevalence of autoimmune-related skin changes, especially among females and those with severe COVID-19 history.

This article discusses how dermoscopy, particularly "entomodermoscopy," aids in diagnosing skin infestations and infectious dermatoses, enhancing clinical evaluations, and monitoring treatment efficacy for conditions like scabies, pediculosis, myiasis, and tungiasis.

This article reviews how skin manifestations can aid in diagnosing various systemic diseases, focusing primarily on their association with rheumatologic conditions while also addressing vascular, granulomatous, and other disease impacts, aiming to provide dermatologists with practical diagnostic insights.

In this preclinical study, PA-011 derived from Periplaneta americana showed significant hair regrowth effects in androgenetic alopecia mouse models by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress, activating hair follicle stem cell proliferation, and normalizing skin microbiota, suggesting promise as an AGA treatment.

This review provides an overview of skin manifestations associated with substance use disorder but reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the importance of dermatological evaluation and multidisciplinary care in managing these cases.

In this article, the authors compile various dermatological conditions that metaphorically reference animal-related visuals, such as "buffalo hump" in HIV-associated lipodystrophy or "leonine facies" in lepromatous leprosy, to enhance learning through mnemonic and visual associations.

This research highlights the essential role of skin findings in diagnosing and managing rheumatic diseases, emphasizing their importance in early recognition, classification, and treatment planning, which requires collaboration between rheumatologists and dermatologists.

The authors concluded that coagulopathy can result from vitamin E supplementation, even at marginally elevated levels, especially when combined with other drugs that increase bleeding risk.

This study found that psychoemotional stress disrupts hair growth in mice by terminating anagen and suggests a potential pathway for pharmacological management of stress-related hair loss in humans.

This research suggests that testosterone-induced expression of TGF-beta1 and type I procollagen may lead to perifollicular fibrosis in androgenetic alopecia, with finasteride inhibiting this process as a possible mechanism for its effects.

This study found that among women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, 100% showed dermoscopic elements suggestive of the condition, with perifollicular erythema often indicating disease activity.

This study found that a ceria nanozyme-integrated microneedles patch accelerated hair regeneration in an androgenetic alopecia mouse model more effectively than minoxidil, with reduced application frequency and minimal skin damage.
