In this case report, a 68-year-old Caucasian woman with Brunsting-Perry pemphigoid experienced scarring alopecia, which was effectively managed using intralesional betamethasone and topical mometasone furoate, suggesting this rare condition may be underdiagnosed in scarring alopecia cases.

Hair relaxers are linked to reduced cystine levels and potential hair damage.

This case report describes a previously healthy 3-year-old girl who developed scurvy symptoms not directly linked to vitamin C dietary deficiency, highlighting the potential for misdiagnosis in similar cases.

This review discusses the role of Toll-like receptors in wound healing and highlights their potential therapeutic value but notes that their role in human wound healing and chronic wounds is not well understood.

In this study, researchers found that using bioinspired nanovesicles derived from inflammation memory-activated epidermal stem cells effectively promoted healing in diabetic wounds by reprogramming neutrophils to an anti-inflammatory phenotype in both laboratory and animal models.

This review discusses factors affecting hair aging, such as inflammation and UV exposure, and examines potential anti-aging benefits of antioxidants and nutraceuticals for hair, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a new topical formulation containing amine-activated carboxymethyl chitosan and hydrolyzed extracellular matrix showed promising results in a mouse model by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and promoting hair regeneration, potentially offering an alternative treatment for inflammatory hair loss.

This review discusses the range of long-term complications, including mucocutaneous, ocular, and psychological sequelae, for survivors of Stevens–Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Ishige sinicola ethanol extract and its butanol fraction can protect against lipopolysaccharide-induced muscle atrophy in C2C12 myotubes through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.

This overview discusses primary cicatricial alopecias, focusing on lichen planopilaris, and highlights the challenges in treatment and the progressive nature of hair loss despite symptom management, without providing new clinical results.

Minoxidil can help grow hair and make hair follicles bigger, but it can also cause side effects.

This study found that seven cases of cicatricial alopecia initially diagnosed as discoid lupus erythematosus were more consistent with lichen planopilaris based on histopathology.

This case collection reports that 15% azelaic acid gel can be effectively used as a monotherapy to treat mild-to-moderate adult female acne.

Active oxygen species might be involved in skin tumor growth, but their exact role is unclear.

This review discusses the bidirectional interactions between human mast cells and CD8 T cells in the skin, particularly in the context of disorders like psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and vitiligo, and reports no new findings.

This study found no significant difference in the persistence of new symptoms or quality of life improvements with 200,000 IU of vitamin D3 compared to placebo in patients post-COVID-19 hospitalization.

Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.

This study found that both PHDPE and ePTFE hair-bearing scaffolds were well tolerated in a rat model, with minimal infection or extrusion, though artificial hair showed progressive loss over time.

This narrative review reports preliminary evidence suggesting that an integrative homeopathic approach, combining constitutional treatment with topical mother tinctures, may aid in healing and reducing inflammatory acne lesions, though larger trials are needed to confirm these effects.

In this case report, an African American male with signs of acne keloidalis nuchae highlights the condition's chronic nature and need for early intervention to minimize permanent scarring and its psychosocial impact.

This study reports that an intervention decreased glucose and insulin levels, indicating improved insulin resistance, which is linked to a skin condition called acne vulgaris and other disorders associated with insulin resistance.

This study observed that among 120 patients recovering from COVID-19, severe diffuse hair loss typically began less than two months post-infection, with the majority of patients experiencing a severe degree of hair loss and positive hair pull tests, often alongside vitamin D deficiency.

This study found that implanting HAP stem cells in a mouse model accelerated wound closure and reduced scar formation, suggesting potential for scar-free wound healing.

Acne can appear or persist in adulthood due to hormonal changes, external factors, or substance use, and requires appropriate treatment.

This study found that the peptide derivative beta-Ala-Pro-Dab-NHbenzyl may reduce wrinkles and sebum production in human skin by inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase 4, suggesting potential for acne and skin inflammation treatment.

This study found that in male rats, chronic finasteride treatment reduced allopregnanolone levels, which, upon drug withdrawal, correlated with increased pro-inflammatory cytokines and altered neurotransmitter levels.

This abstract discusses the role of advanced glycation end-products in aging-related skin damage, but does not provide new findings on their impact on alopecia.

Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation causes dark skin patches and needs personalized treatment.

This study found that a gain-of-function mutation in the TRPV3 channel leads to altered hair development in DS-Nh mice by affecting the anagen and telogen phases, highlighting TRPV3's role in hair growth regulation.

This article discusses perioral dermatitis and reports no new results; the authors present two cases implicating fluoride toothpaste as a potential cause.
