In this pilot study on treating dorsal wrist ganglion, PRP injection showed limited effectiveness at 1-year follow-up compared to aspiration alone, with most PRP-treated patients experiencing ganglion recurrence, suggesting that an RCT would need at least 46 patients per group to further assess PRP's utility.

This case study of a 50-year-old woman with myotonic dystrophy and multiple basal cell carcinomas suggests there could be a genetic predisposition for certain cutaneous tumors in such patients.

This study reports that prostatitis, affecting many men aged 30 to 50, arises from diverse causes, including bacterial infections and pelvic pain syndromes, and requires treatment strategies specific to its type, such as antibiotics and lifestyle changes.

This review re-examines hair blowouts as a material science process, where water acts as a plasticizer altering keratin's glass-transition temperature, allowing for temporary hair shaping through a moisture-induced matrix state change under heat and tension.

This report describes a case of polymyositis that was resistant to steroids and immunosuppressants but showed improvement with immunoadsorption therapy.

This article describes a 10-month-old female with congenital smooth muscle hamartoma, highlighting the importance of differential diagnosis in congenital skin lesions due to potential malignancy risks.

This study found that diazepam had an exaggerated effect on GABA-related inhibitory tone in diabetic neuropathic mice compared to normal mice, potentially due to mitochondrial dysfunction affecting neurosteroid synthesis.

The Trichodysplasia spinulosa virus protein can cause abnormal hair growth in mice.

This review explores the diverse medical uses of botulinum toxin in areas such as pain management, neurological, urological, and ophthalmological conditions, but reports no new clinical results.

Home photobiomodulation therapy can improve life quality and mobility for disabled individuals.

This case report describes two boys with Danon disease, initially misdiagnosed due to increased transaminases, who exhibited cardiac issues and muscle pseudohypertrophy.

This report describes a unique case of Schöpf–Schulz–Passarge syndrome in a Taiwanese man linked to a previously unreported homozygous WNT 10A mutation, underscoring its role in ectodermal dysplasia.

Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in patients with Tourette syndrome.

In this research, the author hypothesizes that curly hair is influenced by the contraction of the Arrector Pili muscle, suggesting that its relaxation through specific treatments could potentially modulate hair follicle curvature, but further studies are needed to confirm this mechanism.

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

This study reported a 2.6% prevalence of myositis in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, with alopecia, leukopenia, and active disease significantly associated with its development.

This case report describes a 47-year-old woman who experienced reversible curling of her hair during treatment with valproic acid, suggesting potential side effects on hair texture.

This study found that psoriasis patients had a significantly higher prevalence of autoimmune diseases and other comorbidities compared to those without psoriasis.

This case report examines a 10-year-old girl with Satoyoshi Syndrome, highlighting the challenges in diagnosing and managing this rare autoimmune disorder.

In this rat study, HHK implantation after spinal cord injury did not significantly improve locomotion but may have integrated into the spinal tissue, potentially aiding recovery and reconstruction.

This study found that using SH-SY5Y cell lysate in Western blot analysis may improve the diagnosis of Satoyoshi syndrome by providing more consistent and clear immunoreactive band patterns compared to brain homogenate, potentially leading to earlier diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that sodium metabisulfite activates sodium channels and increases cellular excitability and excitotoxicity in both cardiomyocyte and neuron models, which exacerbates seizures and neuronal damage in rats.

This case report describes a patient with adrenomyeloneuropathy, highlighting unusual MRI findings of high signal areas in the right striatum.

Capsaicin cream quickly relieved itching in two patients with brachioradial pruritus.

This study found that the twisted hair shafts characteristic of pili torti may result from uneven outer root sheath cell development, leading to irregular hair shaft modeling and twisting.

This study found that the ablation of Esrp1 and Esrp2 disrupts epithelial tight junctions by affecting Arhgef11 isoform expressions, highlighting a potential mechanistic link between splicing alterations and epithelial barrier defects.

This study found that BOTOX doses of 75–100 U effectively reduce postvoiding residual urine and detrusor pressure in patients with detrusor sphincter dyssynergia.

This study found that systemic ovalbumin–aluminum sensitization followed by cutaneous challenge in mice induced thermal hyperalgesia, increased spinal cord gliosis, and sprouting of nociceptive fibers, along with elevated mast cell and nerve profile densities in the skin compared to controls.
