This study suggests that COVID-19 infection can lead to telogen effluvium, typically occurring 3-6 months post-infection, potentially linked to the virus's inflammatory and anticoagulation effects.

This case study describes a cat co-infected with Demodex cati and feline immunodeficiency virus, showing initial treatment improvement followed by disease recurrence and eventual euthanasia.

This retrospective study found that applying local skin precooling before scalp nerve block significantly reduced injection site pain during PRP mesotherapy for patients with androgenetic alopecia, compared to those who did not receive precooling, thus improving patient comfort and compliance.

This case report highlights that inherited zinc deficiency can persist into adulthood and emphasizes the importance of selecting optimal chelating agents to improve oral zinc bioavailability.

This case report highlights a rare instance of permanent hair loss caused by an allergic reaction to a mesotherapy mixture containing triamcinolone acetonide, suggesting that hypersensitivity reactions to such mixtures are possible.

PLLA injections can cause hair loss and skin issues.

This case study reports that a 35-year-old woman developed nonscarring alopecia following the cosmetic use of poly-L-lactic acid on her face and hairline.

This study found that glucose starvation and hypoxia are physiological triggers of ER stress in in vitro differentiated adipocytes, rather than high concentrations of saturated fatty acids, cholesterol, or proinflammatory cytokines.

This review discusses the complex pathophysiological and clinical aspects of COVID-19, including dermatological findings and their association with SARS-CoV-2 infection but reports no new clinical results.

HIV can cause various nail and hair disorders, important for early diagnosis and treatment.

In this study, the authors concluded that COVID-19 may not cause direct long-term harm to testicular function, but temporary indirect effects could occur, suggesting a possible delay in pursuing parenthood post-recovery.

This case study reports the first instance of irreversible alopecia universalis occurring during pegylated interferon-ribavirin therapy in a man with hepatitis C infection, without evidence of immunological or thyroid disorders.

This review discusses the development of the MATH+ treatment protocol for COVID-19 patients, detailing its scientific and clinical rationale, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that nearly half of the tinea capitis patients at a Surabaya hospital had cat contact, with the most common symptoms being crust and hair loss.

This case study reports an unusual presentation of erosive lichen planus of the scalp linked to hepatitis C in a patient, highlighting challenges in establishing a definitive correlation between the two conditions.

In this study, 65% of men with persistent sexual side effects after stopping finasteride reported a reduction in alcohol consumption, echoing findings in rodent models.

In this review, researchers examined how needle gauge and length impact the viability of human stem cells during injections, emphasizing the balance between minimizing tissue trauma and preserving cell viability to optimize clinical protocols.

This study observed that two patients treated with interferon α-2b and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C experienced complete and reversible straightening of their natural curly hair, which recurred with treatment resumption.

This study found that healthcare workers with a positive SARS-CoV-2 nasopharyngeal swab were most likely to report long-COVID symptoms, while seropositive workers without a positive swab had milder symptoms.

This study found that metabolic syndrome negatively affected the response to intradermal dutasteride injection in female pattern hair loss, with participants showing reduced terminal hair and increased vellus hair compared to those without the syndrome.

In this pilot study on treating dorsal wrist ganglion, PRP injection showed limited effectiveness at 1-year follow-up compared to aspiration alone, with most PRP-treated patients experiencing ganglion recurrence, suggesting that an RCT would need at least 46 patients per group to further assess PRP's utility.

This study revealed that during fetal development, MITF and Mart-1 expressing melanocytes progress from the dermis to the epidermis and hair follicles, with MITF possibly marking follicular stem cells.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma can transiently inhibit bacterial growth in vitro against multidrug-resistant strains from diabetic foot infections, although its efficacy diminished over time and did not affect biofilm formation.

This case report suggests that human dermal papillae conditioned media may accelerate wound healing in congenital aplasia cutis due to varicella infection.

This study found that preconditioning human hair follicle-derived stem cells with valproic acid enhanced their survival and migration in ischemic-like conditions by activating autophagy and inhibiting the AKT/mTOR pathway, suggesting this approach could improve stem cell therapies for ischemic stroke.

In these initial clinical studies, NAP monotherapy showed significant reductions in HBsAg levels among patients with chronic HBV, suggesting potential as part of future combination therapies.

The researchers suggest that testosterone levels might influence COVID-19 susceptibility and severity, with low levels potentially protecting against infection but possibly worsening severe disease due to cytokine storm activation.

In this study, cosyntropin-induced cortisol spikes did not affect hair cortisol concentration in captive grizzly bears, contrasting with stress responses observed in free-ranging bears during capture.

This study identified peripheral myeloid cells as the earliest dysregulated immune cells in PINK1 KO mice with Parkinson’s-like symptoms following intestinal infections, suggesting that PINK1 regulates gut immune functions linked to early Parkinson’s disease mechanisms.

This study found that renin and d-dimer levels were significantly higher in PCOS patients, particularly those also infected with COVID-19, compared to non-PCOS women.
