This article provides an overview of how dermoscopy can aid in the noninvasive diagnosis of various general dermatological disorders, grouped by clinical presentation, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews methotrexate's pharmacokinetics and toxicity, emphasizing the role of urinary excretion and leucovorin in avoiding most toxic reactions; it provides no new clinical results.

This study found that NGAL expression increased in calcium-induced keratinocyte differentiation in vitro and was highly elevated in psoriasis-like skin conditions and skin cancers, suggesting a role in skin hyperplasia and homeostasis.

Hand-foot-mouth disease may cause nail loss in children.

Hair casts are often mistaken for head lice, scalp pain in hair loss is linked to certain nerve factors, eyelash growth treatment is safe and effective, and nail shedding in children may follow hand-foot-mouth disease.

Higher levels of certain nerve-related proteins are linked to hair loss in women with scalp pain.

This case study describes a 27-year-old woman with alopecia mucinosa that persisted for 20 years despite multiple treatments, including steroids and antihistamines.

This research observed that multifocal pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia may explain some cases of squamous nests in vulvar lichen sclerosus with lichen simplex chronicus, potentially as a reaction to tissue damage rather than squamous cell carcinoma.

This case report describes a 3-year-old boy with atrichia with papular lesions, emphasizing that dermoscopy, showing the 'cluster of stars' appearance, facilitated diagnosis without needing a skin biopsy.

This case study reports a patient with Rothmund-Thomson type congenital poikiloderma, showing primarily skin changes and hair loss, along with slightly elevated lysine and cystine levels in urine.

This case report describes a pediatric instance of follicular atopic dermatitis in a dark-skinned patient, highlighting its unique clinical and dermoscopic features, such as purplish to brownish scaly papules and specific dermoscopic patterns, which are crucial for enhancing diagnostic accuracy in similar cases.

This report describes a case of secondary syphilis with an unusual folliculocentric papular eruption in an HIV-positive patient, underlining the diagnostic challenges and importance of biopsy with treponemal staining in such cases.

This study concluded that pseudopelade is an autosomal dominant condition, distinct from other forms of alopecia, characterized by atrophic hair follicle loss and notable familial association.

This case study describes a 9-year-old boy with monilethrix and associated abnormalities, suggesting a new, severe autosomal recessive variant termed "monilethrix syndrome.

This case report details a 37-year-old man who developed eosinophilic pustular dermatosis after previously resolving herpes zoster, with successful treatment using itraconazole and cycloproxolamine.

This case report details a 21-year-old woman with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis, presenting with generalized reticulate hyperpigmentation, diffuse noncicatricial alopecia, onychodystrophy, palmoplantar keratoderma, and poorly developed dermatoglyphics.

This study describes a case of epidermolysis bullosa simplex where maternal somatic and germline mosaicism was identified, highlighting the significance for genetic counseling in sporadic cases.

This report describes a case study of a 23-year-old female exhibiting multiple trichodiscomas, a type of benign tumor of the hair follicular discs common in familial cases and potentially linked to Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, though genetic testing was not performed due to financial constraints.

This study found a previously unreported ST14 gene mutation in a patient with ichthyosis-hypotrichosis syndrome, highlighting novel skin and hair characteristics and emphasizing the critical role of the Asp482 amino acid in matriptase activation.

The abstract highlights that lichen planus can manifest as cicatricial alopecia or lichen planopilaris, while discoid lupus erythematosus, a common form of lupus erythematosus, typically causes scarring alopecia. Results are not reported here.
