In this case study, a 45-year-old immunocompetent woman with tinea capitis exhibited an unusual presentation of the infection with a scaly plaque and hair loss, which responded well to treatment with itraconazole.

Topical imiquimod is as effective as 5-fluorouracil for treating actinic keratosis, with about a 5% risk of it turning into squamous cell carcinoma.

This study found that both human and rat dermal papilla spheroids can induce hair follicle neogenesis, but larger spheroids increase inductivity without significantly affecting hair fiber diameter.

This review discusses the current techniques for engineering microtissues, emphasizing the potential of continuous microfluidic processes to facilitate large-scale production, but reports no new experimental results.

This study developed and initially validated the Scale of Alopecia Areata Distress (SAAD), a 41-item tool designed to measure psychosocial distress among US adults with alopecia areata.

Chemical treatments can change the scale heights of wool and cashmere fibers, affecting their identification.

Scale created to measure hair loss in men and women; MK-386 reduces acne; Niaspan treats dyslipidemia; minoxidil increases heart rate.

This study evaluated a plant-based shampoo formulation's scale-up from laboratory to industrial production, reporting that the product maintained its quality, safety, and stability at each scale while meeting microbiological safety standards.

This study found that the SAAD-41 is a validated tool for assessing psychosocial outcomes in individuals with alopecia areata, showing strong correlations with established measures of quality of life and coping.

In this study, researchers successfully scaled a plant-based shampoo formulation for dry and damaged hair from laboratory to industrial production, maintaining its physicochemical properties and microbiological safety throughout, highlighting the formulation's scalability and the importance of quality control in cosmetic manufacturing.

In this study, researchers developed an innovative wound healing patch combining electrical and chemical components, which effectively guided recovery in animal scald models by promoting collagen deposition and the regeneration of skin structures.

In this study, researchers used a new method with platelet-rich plasma-loaded microcarriers to enhance dermal papilla cell activity and hair follicle regeneration, achieving significant hair and vessel growth in a mouse model compared to control groups.

This study reported that oral zinc therapy improved hair and skin abnormalities in patients with dry brittle hair, alopecia, and other symptoms, regardless of demonstrated zinc deficiency.

In this case report, a 28-year-old woman's tinea capitis, diagnosed using a Wood's lamp, was successfully treated with oral itraconazole and ketoconazole shampoo over eight weeks.

This study identified three novel genetic loci associated with PCOS and found similar genetic architecture across different diagnostic criteria, with evidence suggesting genetic links between PCOS and various metabolic and psychological traits.

This perspective highlights the potential of reptile integument as an experimental model to understand the evolution of amniote skin structures, but reports no new research findings.

This study identified changes in transcription factor gene expression across various signaling pathways during inner ear hair cell regeneration in birds, revealing patterns and potential new pathways for future investigation.

This study found that fibronectin nanofiber dressings, made using rotary jet spinning, accelerated wound healing and improved tissue restoration in a full-thickness wound mouse model.

This study found that maintaining tension-force balance in a human skin equivalent improved characteristics of skin homeostasis and structure, suggesting potential as an alternative to animal models for studying skin physiology.

This study developed and evaluated a photographic scale to assess CCCA pattern and severity in African American women, finding it reproducible when used by investigators and participants.

This study achieved a first by successfully forming large quantities of dermal papilla spheroidal microtissues, which retained their hair induction potential, using a micropatterned culture system.

This study found that porcine platelet-rich plasma can be a commercially viable replacement for fetal bovine serum with similar effectiveness in promoting human hair follicle cell growth.

This study found that fish scale collagen peptide significantly promoted wound healing in mice, with the <1 kDa fractions enhancing collagen synthesis and reducing inflammation, suggesting potential clinical benefits.

This study found a strong correlation between the Sinclair Scale and cumulative hair thickness density, allowing the estimation of the Sinclair Scale from trichoscopy-derived statistics.

This review discusses the use of beard hair as a donor source for hair transplantation in hirsute patients and highlights the lack of extensive studies on its efficacy and safety in East Asian populations.

This article discusses advancements and methodologies in epitope identification for autoimmune diseases, specifically alopecia areata, but does not report new experimental results.

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 a real-world registry study, ripretinib showed effectiveness with a median progression-free survival of 7.70 months and a tolerable safety profile in Chinese patients using it as a fourth-line treatment for advanced GIST, particularly benefiting those with non-gastric tumors.
