This study suggests that the NCSTN knockout mouse could serve as an HS animal model, with tamoxifen potentially used for gene deletion in mice.

In this case report, an 8-year-old boy's crusted scalp lesions and alopecia initially mimicking kerion were ultimately diagnosed as Pre-B acute lymphocytic leukemia after histopathological evaluation revealed leukemia cutis.

Researchers found a gene mutation responsible for a rare hair loss condition.

This critique suggests that the prior iconodiagnosis of Vermeer's "Girl with a Pearl Earring" suffers from confirmation bias, arguing that cultural trends, rather than medical conditions, explain the artwork's features.

In this study, CTCF was found to play essential roles in epidermal differentiation and skin barrier formation, simultaneously acting as a suppressor of epithelial inflammatory responses in mouse skin.

This study described two cases of trichoblastomas in the tactile hair skin of aged house musk shrews, highlighting that their histological structure differs from that in humans and other animals.

In this case report, a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome also had mononeuritis multiplex, and the authors suggest that an autoimmune mechanism may be involved based on steroid responsiveness and electrophysiological findings.

This phase 2a trial evaluated Samcyprone for common wart treatment and found that while a sensitization reaction is necessary for therapeutic response, its level does not predict wart clearance.

This report documents the second known case of Castleman's disease in the lacrimal gland, diagnosed in an 84-year-old woman through histological examination after excising a left upper lid mass.

In this study, a case of dissecting cellulitis of the scalp was reported in a man after starting dupilumab therapy, highlighting potential immune pathways involved and the importance of recognizing such paradoxical inflammatory reactions to prevent irreversible alopecia.

This study observed that the catagen phase in hairless mice displayed a slower shortening of the mutant epithelial column, resulting in longer total follicle length and abnormalities in the connective tissue sheath and glassy membrane.

This case report suggests that patchy hair loss in a child may be an atypical sign of persistent head lice infestation.

This case study presents a 9-month-old male infant with symptoms suggesting a likely diagnosis of Hay–Wells syndrome, including severe scalp crusting, nail abnormalities, and partial syndactyly.

This study diagnosed a group of six girls with various ectodermal abnormalities, identifying cranio-skeletal malformations consistent with focal dermal hypoplasia (Goltz syndrome), and found heterozygous mutations in the PORCN gene in two children.

This case study describes a successful reconstructive treatment for a patient with a frontoparietal giant congenital melanocytic nevus, achieved through collaboration between plastic and hair restoration surgeons.

In this study, trichoscopy significantly improved diagnostic accuracy in non-cicatricial alopecia, identifying alopecia areata as the most common cause and effectively aiding diagnosis in 28.2% of ambiguous cases.

This case report describes two guinea pigs infested with Acarus farris mites, which were successfully treated with Phoxim and removal of contaminated hay, leading to rapid resolution of skin lesions and alopecia.

A 5-year-old boy was diagnosed with congenital triangular alopecia, a type of hair loss without skin changes, usually starting between ages 2-5, with no specific treatment.

This study observed that the keratinization pattern of trichilemmal cysts in two Japanese women may originate from the proliferation of the outer root sheath in the follicular isthmus of anagen hairs.

This study found that Hoxc13 mutations in mice cause defects in hair, nail, and tongue structures, with the most noticeable issue being brittle hair leading to alopecia.

Dermoscopy helped correctly diagnose a skin condition that was previously misidentified as a different hair loss disease.

This case study describes a unique instance of warty dyskeratoma involving two adjacent hair follicles within one lesion.

This review discusses primary neutrophilic cicatricial alopecias, their clinical and histological characteristics, and the importance of early therapeutic intervention to prevent scarring alopecia, reporting no new clinical results.

This case study reports the first documented instance of kerion Celsi in a child caused by Microsporum gypseum, likely transmitted from a guinea pig, with remission observed following combination therapy.

In this report, researchers described a potential new variant of mucinous nevus, characterized by dilation of hair follicle pores and fibromucinous stroma in both the papillary and perifollicular dermis.

This case study reported that a 13-year-old cat with paraneoplastic alopecia due to an intraabdominal apocrine adenocarcinoma exhibited ventrally distributed alopecia and shiny skin, with necropsy showing telogenisation and miniaturisation of the hair follicles.

This report discusses a case of a rare congenital neck mass called a "wattle" or congenital cervical tragus, emphasizing its histological features and its association with other branchial arch anomalies.
