This case report details a unique instance of pityriasis rubra pilaris affecting only the scalp, highlighting novel trichoscopic features and emphasizing the importance of recognizing this rare presentation for improved diagnosis and treatment.

This document reviews various studies presented at the Plastic Surgery Research Council (PSRC) Annual Meetings and reports no new research findings; it discusses topics ranging from reconstructive techniques to gender-affirming surgeries.

In this case study, a 24-year-old female with Parry-Romberg syndrome showed significant craniofacial asymmetry, delayed dental development, and other symptoms without neurological deficits; orthodontic treatment is used to improve occlusion and facial balance.

This report describes a 60-year-old female with pretibial pruritic papular dermatitis who showed significant improvement of skin lesions after one month of treatment with oral pentoxifylline. The authors highlight the unique clinical and histological features of PPPD and propose pentoxifylline as a potential therapy.

This study suggests that a position effect disrupting TRPS1 expression may be linked to hypertrichosis in both Ambras syndrome in humans and a similar phenotype in Koa mice.

This case report identifies a novel maternally inherited MBTPS2 variant associated with an expanded phenotypic spectrum of BRESHECK syndrome, including cytopenias, bone marrow fibrosis, and chronic diarrhea.

The researchers reported that reactive oxygen species regulate the stress-induced SP-Mast cell pathway, which might support using antioxidants to treat stress-related hair loss.

A woman with a skin disorder was found to have hepatitis C, which may be linked, and was safely treated with methotrexate.

This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.

The authors concluded that controlling voltage, pulse width, and calcium concentration in pulse electric field-activated platelet-rich plasma enhances the release of growth factors and serotonin without causing clot formation, suggesting potential clinical advantages over bovine thrombin-activated PRP.

This announcement promotes the Las Vegas 24th ISHRS World Congress of Hair Restoration Surgery and presents no new research findings.

This announcement from Redfield Corporation introduces the first disposable linear slot punches for hair restoration surgery, with sharpness guaranteed for up to 500 recipient sites.

This study suggests a connection between the unfolded protein response and upregulation of NKG2D ligands in stressed hair follicles, highlighting a potential role of PRDX5 in alopecia areata pathogenesis.

This study observed that rhizobacterial strain RT3 significantly improved drought tolerance in lettuce by increasing survival rates and fresh biomass after rewatering, with metabolites such as proline and glycine enhancing stress resilience.

Using PDRN injections and RF treatments improved revision nose surgery results without major side effects.

This study found that the PP2A-B55α regulatory subunit is crucial for ectodermal development in mice, with knockout embryos displaying severe neural and epidermal defects and failing to survive to birth.

This study found that VPS13C variants are significantly enriched in patients with idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD), associating these variants with more severe symptoms, autonomic dysfunction, and faster progression from iRBD to overt α-synucleinopathy in the iRBD-first disease subtype.

This announcement from Parsa Mohebi previews the upcoming World Congress of Hair Restoration, but it reports no new research results.

This case report described how peripheral nerve stimulation provided significant pain relief and reversal of dermatological symptoms for a female patient with complex regional pain syndrome after conventional treatments failed.

This study found that Rap1 deficiency in mice may lead to telomere shortening, DNA damage, and impaired mitochondrial function, contributing to cardiac aging and dysfunction.

The researchers reported that disrupting the RPGRIP1L gene in mice impaired desmosome function, causing skin blistering, and their findings suggest that PKCβII inhibition could help treat pemphigus.

This announcement promotes an upcoming hair restoration event but reports no new research findings.

PRP preparation partially activates platelets, causing varied growth factor release.

This study reports a case of GGCX syndrome in a 55-year-old Japanese male, characterized by PXE-like symptoms and coagulation deficiency, with an unreported phenotype of possible spinocerebellar degeneration.

In this retrospective study at Lausanne University Hospital, 61% of 48 patients with tendinopathies reported favorable outcomes after a single standardized autologous PRP injection, while 36% needed two, and effectiveness was unrelated to platelet concentration, activity level, age, or gender.

In this study, the researchers identified a PBX1-SIRT1-PARP1 axis that plays a crucial role in reducing senescence and apoptosis in hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

This study found that TAp63 and ΔNp63 isoforms in the p63 family interact with different transcription factors to regulate distinct transcriptional programs, affecting various biological functions like metabolic pathways, oxidative stress response, and epithelial morphogenesis in mouse epidermal cells.

This study suggests that the HCR risk allele within the PSORS1 locus may contribute to psoriasis susceptibility by altering gene expression related to skin structure and differentiation, although these changes alone might not result in clinical symptoms.
