This article reviews the clinical and diagnostic features of hair shaft disorders, emphasizing the role of structured patient assessments and the avoidance of hair trauma, but reports no new results.

This article illustrates various hair shaft defects and suggests that dermatologists can diagnose most of them using light microscopy and polarization without needing advanced imaging techniques.

This study reports that compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the HEPHL1 gene in a child were associated with abnormal hair and cognitive issues, linking altered ferroxidase activity to hair disorders.

This study found that men with adrenomyeloneuropathy often experience diffuse hair loss and severe male-pattern baldness, potentially due to the X-linked ALD mutation's role in androgenetic alopecia's genetic spectrum.

This study found that a novel rare variant in ITGB6 may cause intellectual disability, alopecia, and dentogingival anomalies in a specific Pakistani family, highlighting a potential role for ITGB6 beyond enamel formation.

This study found that serum MIF levels were significantly higher in patients with extensive alopecia areata compared to those with mild alopecia areata and healthy individuals.

This article discusses various dermatological studies cited by previous authors and reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a novel homozygous EDNRA variant linked to Oro-Oto-Cardiac Syndrome and showed that EDNRA signaling is essential for normal craniofacial and cardiovascular development.

This study in a Pakistani family identified a novel ST14 gene variant as the likely genetic cause of autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis syndrome.

This article discusses the use of dermoscopy for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders in children and reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that early initiation of treatment in fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may lead to a more favorable outcome, as evident in some patients experiencing arrested disease progression and hair regrowth.

In this case report, a patient with Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome developed colon cancer and liver metastasis despite hormone therapy, highlighting the need for regular monitoring and early detection strategies.

This article discusses the role of HR gene mutations in differentiating atrichia with papular lesions from alopecia universalis, but presents no new experimental results.

This review discusses the genetic basis of ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting that identification of gene pathologies enhances diagnosis and supports prenatal DNA testing, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review describes the genetic and phenotypic diversity of Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, highlighting new DCAF17 gene variants and their varying clinical implications.

This study explores using agent-based modeling and nutrition science to predict and treat oral and dental diseases as alternatives to traditional incarceration for managing criminal behavior, but results are not reported.

This case report describes a rare instance of familial congenital atrichia in a 16-year-old girl, possibly involving a genetic component, as both her parents exhibit similar clinical features.

This study identified a novel bi-allelic missense variant in the DSC3 gene linked to severe Hypotrichosis with Recurrent Skin Vesicles in a Saudi child, supporting its role in the condition.

This genetic study identified a potential interval for the Marie Unna hypotrichosis gene but found no mutations in the nearby hr gene, suggesting its involvement remains unconfirmed.

This letter to the editor raises the possibility of a new medical entity characterized by symptoms such as poikiloderma, hyperpigmentation, alopecia, malformed bones, lymphedema, and decreased cortisol, but provides no clinical results.

This review summarizes current knowledge on tight junctions in mammalian skin and their role in drug delivery and interaction with other barrier components, but reports no new experimental results.

This study identified pathogenic or likely pathogenic gene variants in 70.1% of Russian families affected by hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, expanding knowledge of causative mutations.
