This study reported that targeted anticancer therapies are associated with an increased risk of alopecia compared to placebo, although the risk was lower compared to chemotherapy.

This report describes an 11-year-old boy with Netherton syndrome who developed Cushing syndrome after using low-potency hydrocortisone ointment extensively, highlighting caution with long-term topical treatments in such conditions.

This study found that the top 10 film villains have a higher frequency of significant dermatologic features than the top 10 heroes, which may contribute to societal prejudice against individuals with skin conditions.

This review discusses the evolution and studies of injection lipolysis for fat reduction, highlighting the need for more research to ensure patient safety and treatment efficacy; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that mechanical stress activates a WISP-1/Hedgehog signaling axis that contributes to ligamentum flavum hypertrophy and fibrosis, identifying Hedgehog signaling as a potential therapeutic target.

This study found that 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors were associated with a reduced frequency of COVID-19 symptoms in males with androgenetic alopecia.

Spironolactone might help protect against severe lung problems in COVID-19 patients.

This review highlights that while dexamethasone may reduce mortality in severe COVID-19, no other drugs have proven effectiveness for treatment, emphasizing the need for clinical trials of existing medications.

This study validated a protocol for inducing surface ectoderm differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells and highlighted the role of TGFβ signaling pathways in this process.

This study found that cepharanthine can inhibit gastric cancer cell activity by inducing oxidative stress and altering energy metabolism, suggesting its potential for gastric cancer treatment.

This study noted that among hospitalized COVID-19 patients, androgenetic alopecia was prevalent, and severe cases were associated with adverse outcomes such as respiratory failure, highlighting a possible link with androgen sensitivity.

This review discusses the differential diagnosis of low-renin hypertension and highlights recent genetic discoveries related to familial forms, but it presents no new clinical results.

This abstract contains only supplementary material information and reports no new research findings.

This review outlines various non-rash skin toxicities associated with novel targeted anticancer therapies and provides guidelines for their early diagnosis and management, but reports no new clinical results.

This study used bioinformatics to explore molecular differences in testicular and ovarian responses to SARS-CoV-2, identifying genes that could be associated with sex differences in infection outcomes.

This study found that both extensive grey hair and alopecia were independently associated with increased COVID-19 severity among survey respondents in Brazil.

This publication is a letter discussing the association between an androgen receptor genetic variant and COVID-19 disease severity in hospitalized male patients, but it reports no new research results.

This study reports that a short course of steroids resolved symptoms and hyperplasia in infants and young children with recurrent intussusception associated with intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia, suggesting consideration of steroids before surgery.

This review discusses the potential of ozone therapy as an adjuvant to radio-chemotherapy for cancer patients, noting enhanced treatment effects and improved quality of life, but it presents no new research findings.

This review reports that women with polycystic ovary syndrome are at 28%–50% higher risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, with increased rates of COVID-19-related hospitalization, morbidity, and mortality.

This review discusses the broader roles of angiogenic factors, like VEGFs and FGFs, beyond angiogenesis, highlighting their involvement in various biological and pathological processes.

This review explores the autoimmune hypothesis of alopecia areata and the possible genetic and melanogenesis-associated autoantigens, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes a 39-year-old woman whose dermatomyositis-systemic lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome symptoms resolved after switching to tofacitinib.

This study found that the hair interior defect in AKR/J mice is linked to a mutation in the Soat1 gene, which disrupts SOAT1 protein expression and affects lipid metabolism critical for normal hair formation.

This study found that procyanidins effectively alleviate neuropathic pain in mice by significantly inhibiting MMP-9/2 activity.

This study found that millimolar concentrations of minoxidil in the skin induced VEGF production through HIF-1 stabilization by inhibiting PHD-2, implying a molecular mechanism for hair growth promotion.

This research found that spontaneous and depilation-induced hair growth result in biologically distinct telogen phases in murine skin, with variations in thickness, pigment content, and hair follicle composition.

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.

This study found that telogen, a resting phase of the hair follicle cycle, is characterized by dynamic gene expression, including enhanced cholesterol metabolism and immune signaling, suggesting it is an active regulatory phase despite its quiescent appearance.

This study found that a lacticin 3147 solid lipid nanoparticle gel demonstrated potent and sustained antimicrobial activity against S. aureus, including MRSA, in ex vivo S. aureus-infected pig skin.
