This study identified a fungal sulfotransferase enzyme, FgSULT1, from *Fusarium graminearum*, expanding the sulfotransferase superfamily and offering new biocatalytic methods for producing bioactive sulfates.

This abstract introduces the concept of follicular units (FUs) in the human scalp but presents no new research findings.

This study found a high concordance between subject-reported and clinician-reported Fitzpatrick Skin Phototypes, but 14% of subjects misjudged their skin type, often overestimating it.

This study found that infrared thermography might be a useful non-invasive tool to help diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying active phases of the disease.

This review discusses the increasing reports of frontal fibrosing alopecia, a form of scarring alopecia, and its potential link to autoimmune disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This report describes two cases of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides with syringotropism, highlighting indolent progression despite the disease's typically aggressive nature, suggesting aggressive treatment might not be necessary.

This study found that a mutant form of the FGF5s protein, FGF5sC93S, significantly increased hair count after 24 weeks of application on human scalps, suggesting its potential as a hair growth treatment.

In this study conducted at a tertiary dermatological clinic, researchers identified and described the clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathological features of preclinical folliculitis keloidalis, including novel dermoscopic findings such as perifollicular scale, which was associated with fibrosis.

This study developed two comprehensive patient-reported outcome measures for systemic lupus erythematosus to assess symptom fluctuations and impacts, following FDA guidelines, which may aid in clinical studies and practice.

This case report describes a 50-year-old man with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides stage IB, noting trichoscopic findings like dilated follicular openings, black dots, and dystrophic hairs, which are less commonly documented in this condition, suggesting trichoscopy could aid in early diagnosis.

This article discusses hair shedding in women and does not offer new research results; it highlights the need for objective criteria to define excessive hair shedding.

Sulphur in hair follicles increases from the bulb and then levels off, while other elements vary in distribution.

This case report describes a family with autosomal dominant transmission of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, with observed treatment refractoriness in multiple topical and systemic therapies.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing HGF/SF are more susceptible to UVA-induced melanoma, with melanin in the papillary dermis interacting with UVA to induce melanoma.

In this study, a modified Ferriman-Galwey score greater than 4 was found to be effective for diagnosing hirsutism in Asian women, highlighting key areas such as the upper lip, thighs, and lower abdomen.

This review assessed trichoscopic findings in folliculotropic mycosis fungoides of the scalp, reporting features like milky-red globules and distinct vascular patterns, but noted the predominance of small studies and the need for larger research to validate trichoscopy's diagnostic utility for this condition.

This study found that miniaturization of hair is present in some women with androgenetic alopecia, but diagnosis may also be based on differences in hair shaft diameter between scalp regions.

In this study, researchers found that increased hydrogen sulfide levels in Arabidopsis disrupted actin dynamics through S-sulfhydration, leading to the depolymerization of actin filaments and inhibited root hair growth.

In this study, researchers found that the health state utility of moderate facial angiofibroma in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex patients is significantly lower compared to almost-clear facial angiofibroma, indicating that treatment for the condition can substantially improve quality of life.

This study found that FLASH radiation within a Spread-out Bragg Peak retained its normal tissue-sparing effect compared to conventional radiation, with a 40% reduction in acute skin damage and an 18% reduction in fibrotic development in mice.

This study found that Caucasian female hair is denser than Asian female hair in the occipital region regardless of treatment but thinner in diameter in both the frontal and occipital regions.

This study found that evaluating terminal hair growth on the chin, thighs, and either the upper lip or lower abdomen could streamline the modified Ferriman-Gallwey scoring, aiding hirsutism diagnosis under pandemic conditions.

This study found that dermoscopy combined with calcium fluorescent white staining effectively aided in the early diagnosis and treatment evaluation of tinea capitis by highlighting specific hair changes and fluorescent patterns associated with different dermatophyte infections in a sample of 20 patients.

This study used multi-scale hybrid models to explore how signaling factors affect skin wound healing and embryo development, suggesting that different levels of fibrin clot density influence scar formation.

In this study, a newly engineered SFCC hydrogel in animal models demonstrated promising potential for skin reconstruction, promoting hair follicle regeneration, enhancing collagen and cellular proliferation, and accelerating burn healing by supporting favorable immune responses and tissue repair.

This study determined that an mFG score of 5 or greater defines hirsutism among Southern Chinese women, with prevalence and score thresholds decreasing with age.

This study found that patients with Fibromyalgia Syndrome had more frequent skin symptoms and lower quality of life compared to controls, suggesting the need for a multidisciplinary treatment approach.

This study found that the Alopecia Areata Symptom Impact Scale (AASIS) is a better tool than the Alopecia Areata Quality of Life Index (AA-QLI) for assessing patient-reported outcomes in alopecia areata.

This article reviews the characteristics and inheritance patterns of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, but it does not present new clinical findings, noting the disease's complex and poorly understood pathogenesis.

In this study, newly diagnosed women with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome and those with alopecia experienced significantly poorer health-related quality of life.
