This article presents a case of syphilitic alopecia in a man, where treatment with benzathine penicillin G led to dramatic hair regrowth and resolution of syphilitic lesions within three months.

This study found that children are susceptible to SARS-CoV, with good short- to medium-term outcomes, and that sore throat and neutrophilia can predict severe illness.

A novel mutation in the SLC39A4 gene was identified in an infant with mild, incomplete acrodermatitis enteropathic symptoms, suggesting genetic testing is beneficial even without the full symptom triad.

In this study, zinc deficiency, iron depletion, and thyroid abnormalities were commonly observed in female pattern hair loss patients, suggesting the benefit of testing for these conditions.

This article discusses the challenges of attributing skin manifestations to COVID-19, emphasizing the need for more studies to differentiate virus-specific lesions from nonspecific ones, and reports no new clinical results.
