This study explored 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels in hair samples from participants in Aberdeen and suggested potential links between hair vitamin D levels, seasonal UVB exposure, and marine diet in both modern and archaeological contexts.

This study suggests that varicella-zoster virus infection in skin cells may play a role in segmental vitiligo's progression and depigmentation.

In this case report, a woman with segmental vitiligo and hemifacial atrophy showed signs of stabilization after treatment with chloroquine and betamethasone pulse, suggesting a common underlying cause for these dermatoses.

This article discusses the potential involvement of hair follicle melanocytes in follicular vitiligo, noting a pattern of depigmentation centered on follicles and supported by inflammatory infiltrates, without reporting new clinical results.

Two patients had a rare combination of red skin spots and white scaly skin lesions not on the genitals.

This review discusses micro-segmental hair analysis for forensic toxicology, emphasizing its potential to provide detailed drug distribution profiles and its application in investigations, while noting the method's limitations and future perspectives.

This study used micro-segmental hair analysis to identify the day of drug intake and suggested differing uptake mechanisms for co-administered drugs based on their properties.

This study found that higher serum CXCL10 levels may predict the progression of non-segmental vitiligo, especially in patients also suffering from autoimmune thyroid disease and/or alopecia areata.

This study found that combining weekly transverse needling sessions with mini-punch grafting significantly accelerated and enhanced repigmentation in stable, resistant non-segmental vitiligo lesions compared to each procedure alone or non-procedural treatment.

This study concluded that drug-distribution measurements using micro-segmental hair analysis are effective for drowned bodies, as natural water containing divalent ions prevents drug washout from hair.

This study improved a hair analysis method to estimate the days of continuous ingestion of hay-fever medicines, with an average error of about 2 days from actual ingestion.

This study suggests that combining baricitinib with narrowband UV-B therapy is an effective and well-tolerated approach for treating active nonsegmental vitiligo.

VYN201 shows promise as a safe and effective treatment for non-segmental vitiligo.

This study found that applying 5% topical minoxidil gel on treatment-resistant vitiligo patches may promote early repigmentation, showing significant improvement at one month compared to a placebo, though later differences were not statistically significant.

This source describes vitiligo as a chronic condition marked by the loss of skin pigmentation and discusses leukotrichia, a feature affecting 10% to 60% of cases, which arises from melanocyte loss in hair follicles and appears as well-defined white patches on the skin.

In this research, experienced clinicians noted inconsistency in the reproducibility of the commonly used Hamilton-Ludwig scales for assessing pattern hair loss severity in photographic assessments, leading to the proposal of a new 5-point scale for staging female hair loss.

This study at Al-Azhar University Hospitals found that combining a fractional CO2 laser or microneedling with topical 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is more effective and safe for treating vitiligo than using either treatment alone, offering a new therapeutic option for patients.

In this study, vitiligo patients treated with a combination of fractional CO2 laser or microneedling followed by topical 5-Fluorouracil experienced more effective and safe outcomes compared to using either method alone.

This study found that hair from the vertex posterior is a reliable sampling region for detecting zolpidem intake, showing consistent drug concentration and peak position compared to other scalp regions.

In this study, the combination of topical minoxidil 5% and betamethasone valerate 0.1% achieved slightly higher depigmentation in vitiligo of hair-bearing areas but did not show significant improvement over betamethasone valerate alone.

This study suggests that short telomeres may produce similar aging-related symptoms across different segmental progeroid syndromes, offering potential insights into normative aging processes.

In this study, the authors reported that while deoxycholic acid effectively reduces submental fat, it can cause adverse effects such as edema, numbness, and skin necrosis, making knowledge of possible complications essential for clinicians.

This study reviewed various lipolytic agents for reducing submental fat and highlighted that while deoxycholic acid is FDA-approved, other compounds like phosphatidylcholine with deoxycholate lack cosmetic approval due to safety concerns. Understanding these agents' mechanisms and anatomy is crucial for safe fat reduction applications.

In this case report, a nine-year-old child with vitiligo and alopecia areata was successfully treated with upadacitinib and UVB, resulting in a significant reduction in the affected areas, suggesting a promising treatment approach for similar pediatric cases.

This abstract describes the Dermatologic Surgery journal's focus on providing comprehensive peer-reviewed content in dermatologic surgery but reports no new research findings.

This paper considers fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva as a segmental progeroid syndrome, which may help uncover mechanisms of normal aging and suggest targets for new treatments.

This case study reports clinical improvement and complete ulcer resolution in a 29-year-old woman with ANA-negative SLE treated for segmental hyalinizing vasculitis and valvular heart disease.

This article reviews the use of deoxycholic acid as a nonsurgical treatment for unwanted fat in the cosmetic field but reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, follicular unit extraction successfully treated stable segmental vitiligo in the inguinoscrotal region.
