This report documents the second known case of Castleman's disease in the lacrimal gland, diagnosed in an 84-year-old woman through histological examination after excising a left upper lid mass.

In this review, researchers discussed recent insights into caspases, enzymes initially associated with cell death and inflammation, revealing their broader roles in cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation, and highlighting the importance of caspase knock-out mice for understanding their implications in diseases.

This article reviews how biomaterials and stem cells could advance regenerative medicine but does not report new results, emphasizing the potential of combining novel biomaterials with stem cells for effective therapies.

This case report details a 65-year-old woman who developed malignant melanoma in her right eye socket following previous eye trauma, treated by orbital exenteration.

This study discusses patterns of androgenetic alopecia in Indian men but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that the use of 5α-reductase inhibitors in men may be associated with macular abnormalities, characterized by cystoid changes and foveal cavitation, potentially progressing to more severe defects.

This study found that injecting minced fat into the facial artery of rabbits was associated with higher rates of ophthalmic complications and mortality compared to fat granules or fat lipids.

This Cochrane review found no clear superiority among treatments for central serous chorioretinopathy, with low-dose photodynamic therapy, supplements, and eplerenone showing slightly higher probabilities of improving visual acuity, but evidence remains uncertain due to biases and small study sizes.

This review discusses the use of zebrafish larvae as an alternative model for studying ototoxicity, facilitating large-scale screening for otoprotective compounds, but reports no new clinical results.

This study estimates that approximately 230,000 tactile afferent fibers innervate the human body's skin, with varying densities across different regions correlating with spatial acuity and hair follicle density.

This study details the successfully treated case of a 16-year-old girl with congenital alopecia due to encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis, resulting in high patient satisfaction after hair restoration.

This article discusses the immune privilege in hair follicles and suggests that restoring its collapse might be an effective strategy for treating alopecia areata and cicatricial alopecia, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, optical coherence tomography detected hair follicles at the dermoepidermal junction not visible on the scalp surface in alopecia areata patients, suggesting OCT may help monitor treatment response.
