This case report describes a 13-year-old with DSD raised as female, exhibiting hoarseness and clitoral enlargement, with hormonal assessments not indicating common related deficiencies.

This research reported that a newly developed adhesive wound dressing (SIS/PAA/LAP) demonstrated higher tissue adhesion and burst strength compared to conventional products, and improved tissue repair outcomes in animal models, suggesting potential for enhanced wound healing applications.

This study reports a case of a child with congenital skin fragility, alopecia, and cardiomyopathy due to compound heterozygous mutations in the DSP gene causing desmoplakin deficiency.

This study reports that a homozygous A1103G mutation in DSG 4 is responsible for localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis in a 2-year-old Chinese girl, resulting in reduced DSG 4 expression and hair defects.

This notice from the Surgical Assistants Program Chair shares details about the September 2011 ISHRS meeting in Anchorage but reports no new research findings.

Using Selenium Disulfide shampoo weekly helps prevent scalp dermatitis flare-ups.

This study suggests that combining topical squaric acid dibutylester with other therapies may improve hair regrowth in patients with alopecia areata unresponsive to topical therapy alone.

Deep Brain Stimulation helps manage Parkinson's symptoms when medication isn't enough.

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.

This study identified a novel mutation in the EDA gene, which may impair protein stabilization and be involved in the development of oligodontia and mild ectodermal dysplasia phenotypes.

This study suggests that using the International Psoriasis Council's classification, which includes body surface area, special areas, and treatment history, may identify more candidates for systemic therapy than by body surface area alone.

This study concluded that finasteride-induced DHT deficiency intensified constitutive iNOS expression in rat testicular and epididymal cells, suggesting a complex regulatory relationship needing further investigation.

This study found that a shampoo containing 0.075% broad-spectrum cannabidiol significantly reduced scalp inflammation and symptoms in subjects with mild to moderate scalp psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis within two weeks.

Dermatologic surgery has greatly improved with new techniques over the years.

In this study, researchers found that skin diseases like atopic dermatitis, acne, and psoriasis are associated with increased odds of alcohol use disorder, with psychiatric conditions such as anxiety and depression partially mediating this relationship, accounting for up to 80% of the risk.

This report describes two cases where topical squaric acid dibutylester application in alopecia totalis patients led to severe pustular lesions, necessitating systemic prednisolone treatment.

This review discusses the etiology, pathophysiology, trichoscopic characteristics, differential diagnoses, and treatment options for scalp seborrheic dermatitis, without providing new clinical findings.

A specific gene mutation causes sparse, brittle hair in a family.

In this case report, a patient with a history of discoid lupus erythematosus experienced an exacerbation of the condition after topical immunotherapy for alopecia areata, suggesting contact dermatitis as a potential trigger.

This study reports that a lower 2D:4D finger length ratio is significantly associated with higher disease activity and reduced spinal mobility in females with ankylosing spondylitis, but not in males.

This study identified genetic variations in the DSG4 gene among sheep, revealing valuable markers for assessing their impact on wool traits.

The I National Academic Congress of Dermatology in 2021 expanded to include participants from across Brazil and discussed dermatology topics, including COVID-19.

This study found that dermoscopy can be a useful tool for diagnosing androgenetic alopecia, particularly in determining hair diameter diversity as an essential feature in Asian populations.

In this prospective phase II clinical trial, researchers are investigating whether adding dutasteride to combined androgen blockade can improve the response rate and clinical outcomes for patients with androgen receptor-positive recurrent or metastatic salivary duct carcinoma.

This study found that fatty acid desaturation regulated by SCD1 is crucial for hair growth by maintaining hair follicle stem cell niches, with its absence causing abnormal hair growth in mice.

This study developed a handheld card to simplify the calculation of the SALT score for assessing alopecia areata severity, noting that while it accelerates the process, formal validation against existing methods is still needed.

This review found an increased prevalence of common skin disorders, such as infectious and inflammatory conditions, in patients with Down syndrome and highlighted the need for improved screening and management guidelines.

In this study, researchers highlighted that in sarcoidosis, macrophages in granulomas can produce vitamin D, potentially leading to calcium imbalances, where vitamin D supplementation may cause hypercalcemia, necessitating careful laboratory assessment before supplementation.

In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.
