This case report describes androgenetic alopecia in two young siblings, highlighting its occurrence in children and suggesting a possible familial pattern given their mother's similar condition.

This study found that administering minoxidil and PGE₂ to pregnant mice with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome models corrected multiple developmental anomalies, including thymus growth and parathyroid positioning, by targeting prenatal mesenchymal differentiation.

This study found that Oncostatin M, via JAK-STAT5 signaling, keeps hair follicle stem cells inactive, and its removal leads to hair growth initiation in mice.

The study found that among young Brazilian women, the likelihood of metabolic syndrome in those with PCOS is strongly associated with BMI and the phenotype involving menstrual irregularity and hyperandrogenism.

In this study, once-daily 5% minoxidil foam and twice-daily 2% minoxidil solution both promoted hair regrowth in women with female pattern hair loss, but noninferiority of the foam was not established.

This case report describes dizygotic twin sisters with congenital ichthyosis, mental retardation, myopathy, and anemia, who may represent a syndrome distinct from previously recognized disorders like Rud syndrome.

This case study reports successful treatment of an 11-year-old girl's trichotillomania with cognitive behavioral therapy, mild topical treatments, and supportive parental involvement, without psychopharmacologic intervention.

In this study, lower serum adiponectin levels and altered lipid profiles were observed in patients with periorbital melanosis, suggesting an association with metabolic syndrome.

This case report identifies a novel maternally inherited MBTPS2 variant associated with an expanded phenotypic spectrum of BRESHECK syndrome, including cytopenias, bone marrow fibrosis, and chronic diarrhea.

This case report describes a 2-year-old girl with Majocchi granuloma, a deep granulomatous folliculitis, which improved after treatment with oral terbinafine despite relapses leading to multiple treatment courses.

In this study, women with PCOS who had children reported shorter menstrual cycles and more regular daily routines compared to childless women, who experienced less hirsutism and weight gain.

In this study, researchers identified a recurrent MBTPS2 splice-site variant as a mutational hotspot in IFAP syndrome across diverse families, with phenotype severity suggesting the influence of additional modifiers.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl diagnosed with monilethrix despite no familial history and treated with a topical minoxidil trial.

This case report highlights the importance of considering hair-thread tourniquet syndrome as a potential diagnosis for girls with genital swelling and pain, emphasizing the need for prompt intervention.

The authors concluded that milia, steatocystoma multiplex, and eruptive vellus hair cysts may be subtypes of multiple pilosebaceous cysts with overlapping histologic features.

In this study, researchers identified two de novo germline missense mutations in the hair keratins hHb1 and hHb6 in patients with monilethrix whose parents were not clinically affected.

This case report describes two boys aged 8 and 10 with loose anagen hair syndrome who experienced successful hair regrowth using topical minoxidil 2% solution, suggesting it may be an effective initial treatment option for severe cases of this condition.

This study found that TET2 plays a tumor-suppressive role in preventing squamous cell carcinomas by regulating 5-hydroxymethylcytosine levels, suggesting therapeutic potential for DNA methylation dynamics.

This study identified two novel genes, pmg-1 and pmg-2, expressed in various skin and gland tissues and potentially involved in the differentiation of epithelial cells in epidermal appendages.

In this study assessing post-menopausal Asian women, distinct shifts in Malassezia species prevalence on the skin were linked to increased inflammation and impaired skin barrier function, potentially driving disorders like psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis.

Monilethrix Syndrome causes fragile, beaded hair that breaks easily and needs early diagnosis for better care.

This case report details two siblings with trichothiodystrophy, identifying reduced hair sulfur content as essential for diagnosis despite varied symptoms complicating recognition.

This study reports the development of a microemulsion using Momordica charantia extract, which demonstrated strong antioxidant and 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, potentially aiding hair loss management. The microemulsion was stable over 12 weeks, suggesting its future potential for cosmetic or pharmacological applications.

The researchers reported that the novel MBTPS2 variant p.Glu172Asp found in a male proband is likely pathogenic, consistent with osteogenesis imperfecta symptoms and molecular signatures, including disrupted fatty acid metabolism and collagen production.

This study identified novel LSS mutations implicated in hypotrichosis simplex with or without neurodevelopmental abnormalities, highlighting the need for careful evaluation of synonymous mutations' potential pathogenic effects.

This study observed that MIRV improved gastrointestinal symptoms and other quality of life measures in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer compared to chemotherapy.

This report documents a 14-year-old Chinese boy with mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like episodes, and a de novo A3243G mitochondrial DNA mutation, highlighting the condition's multisystem involvement without ragged red fibers in muscle biopsy.

In this case report, a 14-year-old boy with Satoyoshi syndrome did not improve with intravenous immunoglobulin but responded dramatically to steroid treatment.
