Rare earth elements are crucial in medical imaging and cancer treatment.

This study identified thousands of variant-metabolite associations in the human plasma metabolome, offering insights into the genetic bases of metabolism and potential adverse drug effects.

This study found that all-trans and 9-cis retinoic acids increase steroid sulfatase activity in HL60 cells through mechanisms involving RARα/RXR heterodimers and multiple signaling pathways.

This study found that rare germline pathogenic variants in BRCA2, BRCA1, and ATM are associated with increased risk of aggressive prostate cancer.

This review discusses the diverse range of skin manifestations in children with COVID-19 and highlights the complexity of clinical assessment due to varied presentations; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study reports a case of Ellis van Creveld syndrome in a 40-year-old Iranian woman, highlighting uncommon features such as pectus excavatum, Phrygian cap gallbladder, liver hemangioma, polycystic ovarian disease, and breast fibrocystic cysts.

This case study identified Geotrichum candidum as a cause of skin lesions in a horse following extended corticosteroid or antibiotic use, noting the importance of thorough diagnosis and specific antifungal treatment to improve symptoms.

This study found that a specific Gli1+ subpopulation in the perivascular niche plays a crucial role in wound healing by differentiating into myofibroblasts, with their genetic ablation impairing wound repair.

This case report presents a rare manifestation of secondary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma as erythematous macules coalescing into reticular patches on the scalp and forehead.

This case report describes a 23-year-old male who developed leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and rash associated with lamotrigine treatment, emphasizing the importance for clinicians to monitor for serious side effects, especially early in treatment.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl diagnosed with the rare concurrence of monilethrix and trichorrhexis nodosa, characterized by sparse, brittle hair, who showed minimal clinical improvement with low-dose oral and topical minoxidil treatment.

In this case report, a 21-year-old male was observed to have primary essential cutis verticis gyrata, a condition characterized by the excessive formation of scalp folds resembling cerebral gyri, without any additional comorbidities.

In this case report, the researchers observed scalp alopecia due to metastasis of breast cancer in a woman in her sixties, highlighting that scalp metastases can result in patchy hair loss and, although often accompanied by poor prognosis, can sometimes show comparatively better outcomes.

This paper discusses four rare causes of hyperandrogenism in women, emphasizing the importance of detailed biochemical testing and invasive diagnostic tools when imaging fails to identify ovarian tumors.

This case report highlights a rare association between congenital triangular alopecia and vitiligo, noting that treatment with tofacitinib improved the patient's vitiligo but not the alopecia.

This review discusses the increasing reports of rare cutaneous side effects from topical imiquimod, aiming to inform physicians and dermatologists about its potential adverse effects as its use expands.

In this study, a 37-year-old female with resistant hypertension and signs of Cushing's syndrome and primary aldosteronism was found to have normal cortisol levels but high levels of cortisol and aldosterone via adrenal venous sampling, leading to a diagnosis confirmed by right adrenalectomy.

This case report illustrates that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may be misdiagnosed as androgenetic alopecia due to similar hair loss patterns, but distinctive trichoscopic and histopathologic features help differentiate it.

This case report describes a 52-year-old postmenopausal woman diagnosed with a rare Steroid Tumor Without Other Specification, highlighting the diagnostic challenges and treatment approach involving bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

This case report highlights the importance of considering an ovarian steroid cell tumor diagnosis in young women with increased testosterone after ruling out polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This case report highlights that lipedematous scalp and alopecia areata may coexist and that precise diagnosis requires histopathologic examination.

This case report described a facial hairline tumor initially diagnosed as a sebaceous cyst but ultimately confirmed as a rare Proliferating Pilar Tumor with focal malignancies upon histopathological examination.

This review examines lesser-known factors contributing to polycystic ovarian syndrome and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research into individualized treatment and prevention strategies.

This case report presents a 60-year-old woman with virilization and elevated adrenal androgens, where a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy confirmed ovarian steroid cell tumor NOS, and her symptoms resolved post-operatively.

This case study reports a rare co-occurrence of alopecia areata and vitiligo in a 13-year-old female, suggesting a potential pathogenic link between the two autoimmune skin diseases.

This report describes a rare case of recurrent hair growth in the floor of the mouth, suggesting heterotopia as the possible cause in an adult male.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing a rare case of Leydig cell tumor with type I diabetes mellitus causing female pattern hair loss, but it contains no abstract or new clinical findings.

Repigmentation in vitiligo may come from melanocyte stem cells in the skin.

This case report describes oleoma on the thighs and buttocks appearing two years after an injection for cellulite treatment, suggesting the need for more research to ensure the procedure's safety and efficacy.
