This case report describes a six-year-old child with congenital biotinidase deficiency whose symptoms, including breathlessness, alopecia, and hearing loss, were reversed with biotin supplementation.

This study suggests that monitoring CD8+ TEMRA cells in patients with rapidly progressive alopecia areata treated with intravenous corticosteroids could help predict therapeutic outcomes.

This report describes a unique case of hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR) in a dog, caused by a VDR gene mutation resulting in severe hypocalcemia and bone issues, which presented with symptoms similar to those observed in humans.

This study created a humanized mouse model of hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets that lacks alopecia, indicating the mutant receptor's potential to explore the syndrome's characteristics beyond vitamin D binding.

This case report describes a patient with diffuse large B cell lymphoma who experienced temporary Beau’s lines and onycholysis while undergoing R-CHOP chemotherapy, which resolved two months after treatment ended.

This study found that in lamivudine-resistant hepatitis B patients, tenofovir significantly reduced HBV DNA levels faster and more consistently than adefovir, reaching undetectable levels in all treated patients by 44 weeks.

This study found that rabbits with mange showed significant declines in haemoglobin, PCV, and RBC count, alongside increased TLC and liver enzyme levels. Following treatment with ivermectin and proper management, recovery from the disease was observed.

Viral reactivation is rare at the time of DRESS diagnosis in the U.S.

In this study, mutations in the vitamin D receptor were identified in Brazilian children with rickets and alopecia, leading to impaired receptor activation and reduced 24-hydroxylase expression.

This study reports on eight previously unpublished cases of Bohring-Opitz syndrome with ASXL1 mutations, suggesting the importance of screening for Wilms tumors in these patients.

This study found that elevated tissue RBP4 levels correlate with disease severity in alopecia areata and decrease after effective baricitinib treatment, while the rs3758539 polymorphism is linked to disease susceptibility but not to treatment response.

This study found that a mitoxantrone, vincristine, and prednisolone regimen effectively treated recurrent breast cancer with a 70% response rate, though it was associated with significant myelosuppression.

This study observed that in varicella, the varicella-zoster virus spreads to dermal endothelial cells before reaching keratinocytes, whereas in herpes zoster, it first involves cutaneous nerves and pilosebaceous units.

This case report details a 42-year-old woman with Rhupus, a rare overlap syndrome of rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus, emphasizing diagnostic challenges due to non-specific clinical criteria and documenting symptoms like inflammatory arthritis, malar rash, and hematological abnormalities.

This case report describes a 61-year-old Italian man with a rare, localized variant of junctional epidermolysis bullosa linked to the R795X mutation in the COL17A1 gene, highlighting the importance of precise diagnosis for effective management of rare genetic disorders.

This article provides no abstract or new research findings.

This study found that supplementing baby pigs with riboflavin relieved external symptoms of deficiency, but many internal issues persisted, possibly due to inadequate dosage or treatment duration.

This report describes a case where oral valganciclovir treatment led to improved skin texture and hair regrowth in a patient with trichodysplasia spinulosa.

This study reports the first known occurrence of Leporacarus gibbus infestation alongside Cheyletiella parasitovorax and Psoropotes cuniculi in a domestic rabbit in Espírito Santo, Brazil.

In this study, prenatal exposure to a non-teratogenic dose of all-trans-retinoic acid showed no adverse effects on vibrissal follicle development in NMRI mice.

This article discusses various causes of rickets in children and describes VDDR-2A as a type of refractory rickets often linked to alopecia totalis in infancy, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study reported two cases of alopecia universalis triggered by PEG-interferon and ribavirin therapy for chronic hepatitis C, with hair regrowth observed after therapy completion or withdrawal.

A bull with a gene mutation was asymptomatic, synthetic retinoids cause hair loss, and new therapeutic targets were identified for skin diseases.

This study found that blood and milk somatic cells show promise as matrices for monitoring illicit recombinant bovine somatotropin use in dairy cattle through gene-expression assays.

In this case report, a 17-year-old female with symptoms such as vaginal bleeding and weight loss was diagnosed with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, emphasizing the importance of considering hematological malignancies in young patients with unusual presentations, as early diagnosis can significantly improve outcomes.

This report describes siblings with vitamin D-dependent rickets type 2, characterized by growth retardation, alopecia totalis, and low 25(OH)D3 levels, highlighting its autosomal recessive pattern and distinction from other rickets types.

This study found that the RpoN/RpoS pathway regulates gene expression in Borrelia burgdorferi, influencing its ability to persist in mammals and adapt to different hosts.

This study observed that SARS-CoV-2 shedding significantly decreased after remdesivir treatment, irrespective of RT-PCR cycle threshold values, suggesting early de-isolation might be possible in severe COVID-19 cases.
