This case study found that isotretinoin treatment achieved complete resolution of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in a patient, suggesting systemic retinoids as a potential treatment option.

This review discusses various skin manifestations associated with COVID-19, emphasizing their potential role in early diagnosis and management of the infection, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers created a mutant mouse lacking the first cut repeat in the Cux/CDP protein, resulting in curly vibrissae and wavy hair, supporting the role of Cux/CDP's DNA binding domains in gene regulation during development.

This study found that pulsed doses of prednisolone led to excellent hair growth in 60% of young patients with widespread alopecia areata, with minimal side effects.

This article discusses the use of lasers and light sources for hair removal and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the significance of selecting the appropriate laser system and treatment protocol for effective and safe outcomes.

This study found that non-coherent intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment significantly reduced hair growth by about 80% in patients with skin type III-V without causing side effects.

This article reviews common endocrine neoplasms in domestic ferrets and discusses diagnosis and medical treatment options, reporting no new research findings.

This study found that using medical terminology for newly medicalized disorders leads people to perceive them as more serious, more representative of a disease, and less common than when common language is used.

This study suggests that patients with STSD show a different pattern in androgen activation compared to healthy controls, potentially due to increased 5α-reductase activity and absent prepubertal serum DHEA surge.

In this study, hirsute women with normal or medically normalized testosterone levels experienced similar, though declining, hair reduction from both intense pulsed light and long-pulsed diode laser treatments over six months.

In this study, the combination of pulse intravenous corticosteroids and methotrexate was associated with positive hair regrowth in severe alopecia areata patients, with half achieving total regrowth.

This study suggests that fusaric acid at nontoxic concentrations may activate signal transduction in plants which could aid in the plant-defense responses against Fusarium spp.

This study reports four infants with necrotic caput succedaneum leading to alopecia and persistent scalp lesions, which partially improved with topical corticosteroids, indicating erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp.

In this study, the researchers found that thymosin beta-4 promotes odontoblastic differentiation in human dental pulp cells, suggesting it as a potential mechanism for regenerative endodontics.

This article reviews the physiological changes underlying normal pubertal milestones and emphasizes the importance of understanding these changes to assess pubertal abnormalities, without reporting new clinical findings.

In this retrospective study, cyproterone acetate treatment in late-pubertal trans-girls was found to be generally safe and led to mild feminizing effects, with more rapid feminization occurring when combined with estrogens.

In this study, researchers evaluated the hair pull test and found that normal values should be reduced to two hairs or fewer, with no significant impact from hair washing, brushing, or lifestyle factors such as hair texture and medication use.

This case report describes how discontinuing the EGFR inhibitor gefitinib led to rapid improvement of erosive scalp pustules in a woman with non-small-cell lung cancer, despite previous antibiotic and steroid treatment failures.

This study found that topical application of Morinda pubescens fruit extract significantly accelerated wound healing and hair regrowth in rats compared to controls, with complete wound contraction and new hair growth observed in treated animals.

This study suggests that topical corticosteroids, potentially combined with oral zinc and followed by topical calcineurin inhibitors, may be effective for managing erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp.

This study observed that while topical drug therapy for erosive pustular dermatosis rarely leads to complete resolution, surgery may achieve remission in male patients.

This study concluded that Buserelin can effectively inhibit gonadal activity in children with central precocious puberty over 18 months, potentially improving final height predictions with prolonged treatment.

This review discusses the development of IPL devices, highlights their established cosmetic uses, such as treating vascular and pigmented lesions, and suggests potential expansion into more effective combination therapies.

This report describes effective treatment of demodicosis in ferrets using amitraz, marking the first known cases in this species.

This review examines the debated link between iron deficiency and nonscarring scalp alopecia in women, offering no new clinical results but emphasizing the need for further research and well-designed trials.

This study suggests that TGase 3 may contribute to hair fiber scaffolding by forming specific isopeptide bonds between keratin intermediate filaments and keratin-associated proteins.

This study found that combining topical and oral pulse corticosteroid therapy for severe alopecia areata in children led to long-lasting hair regrowth, especially in AA plurifocalis, with no serious side effects reported.

This study isolated and characterized two distinct types of caspase-like proteases from human epidermis, suggesting their involvement in keratinocyte differentiation and apoptosis processes.

This systematic review found insufficient evidence to make robust recommendations for using antiandrogen therapies in treating hidradenitis suppurativa/acne inversa and suggests that further randomized controlled trials are necessary.

In this study, daughters of women with PCOS and control daughters showed no significant differences in metabolic and hormonal parameters, but more PCOS daughters exhibited hirsutism at advanced pubertal stages.
