This publication outlines best practices in hair transplantation and scalp therapy, covering modern restoration techniques, patient assessments, and post-operative care to aid informed decision-making among patients and clinicians, with resources available for further reference in Kerala.

The researchers in this study described the use of trichoscopy to assist in diagnosing aplasia cutis congenita of the scalp in a dark-skinned newborn, noting that trichoscopic findings can differ from those seen in light-skinned patients, yet remain a valuable diagnostic tool.

Scalp skin condition LEDS has similar features to Zoon's balanitis, a mucosal skin disorder.

This protocol outlines a study aiming to develop a universal patient-reported outcome measure for various hair disorders through qualitative interviews, with no new clinical results reported yet.

This case report describes a 42-year-old male with alopecia areata and a scalp neurofibroma, emphasizing the tumor's histopathological features and the patient's decision against surgical treatment.

This article reviews a broad range of topics related to human hair and scalp conditions, including assessment techniques and treatment approaches, without presenting new research findings.

In this study, women in their 40s with hair loss showed significant improvements in hair properties such as pore density and hair thickness when treated with a caffeine-based scalp ampoule and Microneedle Therapy System, compared to a caffeine-free control.

This study found that scalp cooling effectively prevented visible hair loss in over half of patients undergoing highly alopecia-inducing chemotherapy, yet cognitive appraisal of the treatment had a more significant impact on quality of life than the actual degree of hair retention.

This study describes a successful reconstructive A-T flap surgery on a 74-year-old male with a 35mm basal cell carcinoma on the scalp, resulting in a 50mm defect, with no complications and optimal functional and cosmetic outcomes reported.

Vertebrate skin evolved to be more specialized and complex, especially in land animals.

This article discusses the complexities of treating hair and scalp disorders in African American patients, emphasizing the importance of understanding their specific hair care practices and the unique impact on quality of life, but reports no new empirical findings.

In this study, researchers identified a novel homozygous variant in the FAM83G gene responsible for autosomal recessively inherited palmoplantar keratoderma with curly hair in a consanguineous Pakistani family, suggesting FAM83G plays a crucial role in skin and hair homeostasis.

This review highlights that Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide exhibits various bioactivities, such as antioxidant and immune-modulating effects, and explores its potential applications in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

This study created a detailed spatial atlas of healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma, revealing a potential hair follicle origin for basal cell carcinoma and expansion of certain mesenchymal cell populations.

In this study, researchers found that neonate hairs have a distinct microstructure with no medulla and smaller hair follicles compared to adult hairs.

This study used rapid-freezing immunocytochemistry to successfully map the ultrastructural localization of hair keratins in human scalp hair, primarily finding them in macrofibrils in the cortex and endocuticle.

This study identified a unique transcriptional signature in occipital hair follicles that may protect them from miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia, using an animal-free model to investigate gene roles.

This review summarizes the composition, bioactive functions, and potential industrial applications of rice bran polysaccharides, focusing on how extraction methods and modifications impact their biological activities.

In this study, researchers developed a detailed spatial atlas of healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma, revealing that basal cell carcinoma likely originates from hair follicles and involves expansion of specific fibroblast subpopulations found in healthy skin.

This review discusses the side effects and diseases related to hairstyles and hair treatments among black women, highlighting the need for thorough examination by dermatologists, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a giant pigmented tumor of the scalp in a 47-year-old woman and suggests a possible dual origin involving neural crest differentiation.

This study found that women with AIDS had significantly reduced epithelial thickness and more telogen hair follicles on the scalp compared to women without AIDS.

In a mouse model, this study found that exposure to PM2.5 leads to significant postpartum hair loss, apparent via morphological changes and elevated markers of inflammation, apoptosis, and fibrosis, potentially exacerbated by changes in hormone receptors and stem cell populations.

This study's simulations suggest that biomechanical factors, like follicle geometry and tissue stiffness, are likely significant in hair fiber protrusion, providing a framework for future experimental validation.

This study observed that using an environmentally friendly bovine milk permeate effectively and cleanly removes wool from sheepskins without harming the skin, and results in smoother leather compared to traditional chemical methods.

In this study, the researchers identified the specific subcellular localization of the protein S100A3 in the endocuticle and cortex of human hair shafts.

This study observed that trichoscopy of long-lasting lesions in a chronic stage revealed specific features such as absence of follicular openings, cicatricial patches, and thick arborizing vessels.

This case report details a rare instance of a giant cellular blue nevus on the scalp, highlighting its potential to damage underlying bone and hair follicles, alongside a separate alopecia areata lesion successfully treated with topical corticosteroid.

This study found that age-related changes in scalp dermal fibroblasts, including increased MMP-1 and reduced ECM components, may significantly affect the hair follicle environment and contribute to hair aging.

This case report of a 60-year-old male patient diagnosed with trichilemmal carcinoma, initially mistaken for a sebaceous cyst, highlights the importance of careful evaluation of atypical swellings for correct diagnosis and treatment.
