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.

Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing and monitoring discoid lupus erythematosus by showing specific skin patterns.

This review examines the trichoscopic characteristics of scalp DLE and LPP, correlating these findings with histopathological data, but provides no new clinical results.

This study observed that orange spots and dystrophic hairs on trichoscopy may aid in diagnosing scalp sarcoidosis.

Dermoscopy helped diagnose discoid lupus erythematosus in two patients without needing skin biopsies.

This study suggests that selective photothermolysis of sebaceous glands using free electron laser pulses may offer a novel approach to treating acne by causing targeted thermal damage without affecting the epidermis.

This study discovered a new region in the hair cortex where intermediate filaments are both aligned with the hair's axis and orientationally ordered, influenced by the cuticle boundary.

This study highlights the importance of dermoscopic examinations in accurately diagnosing skin cancer, which can be mistaken for benign seborrheic keratosis, emphasizing the need for trained interpretation to avoid missing malignant lesions.

This retrospective study in pediatric patients with Sjögren's syndrome found consistent indications of tear film instability and identified systemic features like arthralgia, Raynaud's phenomenon, and frequent autoantibody positivity, underscoring the value of integrating clinical and ophthalmological assessments for early diagnosis.

This study found that oral spironolactone improved certain biomarkers in central serous chorioretinopathy patients, but recurrence, especially in older patients, was relatively common.

This study observed that trichoscopy of long-lasting lesions in a chronic stage revealed specific features such as absence of follicular openings, cicatricial patches, and thick arborizing vessels.

Curly and straight hair differ in how their internal fibers are arranged.

This study reports two cases of bubble hair deformity in young men caused by prolonged exposure to bathroom heating lamps during showers, suggesting that maintaining a safe distance from heating devices may prevent this thermal injury to hair.

This review discusses the potential of repeated low-level red-light therapy to inhibit myopia progression through metabolic effects, highlighting its molecular and cellular impact, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Google users are increasingly searching for health information on dermatological issues, with particular interest in itch, hair loss, and skin rash.

This study observed that online searches in Japan for long-COVID symptoms, such as hair loss, cough, and headache, increased alongside peaks in new COVID-19 cases from 2020 to 2022, highlighting growing public interest in long-COVID.

This review discusses factors influencing the earlier onset of puberty, such as obesity and exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, and emphasizes the need for further research and public health policy development.

This article discusses how the balding scalp's exposure to UV and near-infrared light may accelerate aging, with changes detectable under ultraviolet light; it presents no new clinical findings.

This report describes how ultraviolet-induced fluorescence dermoscopy helped accurately diagnose scalp disorders, specifically alopecia areata and tinea capitis, in pediatric patients.

This study analyzed trichoscopic features of discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp in skin of color and found distinct patterns based on clinical morphology.

This article examines the emerging role of dermoscopy in skin cancer diagnosis and reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight its potential to enhance dermatological practice.

This study found that high-resolution laser speckle contrast imaging devices provide good reproducibility for assessing skin perfusion in mice but not for measuring haemoglobin oxygenation.

This study found that hyperpigmented skin changes resembling Schamberg’s purpura occur in areas affected by CRPS and can also appear on mirror-image locations of unaffected limbs, potentially improving with the condition's treatment.

This review summarizes trichoscopic features for diagnosing common hair loss disorders and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing their diagnostic utility in conditions like alopecia areata and trichotillomania.

This study found that using a standardized protocol with microspheres of approximately 1.5 micrometers enhances penetration into hair follicles, particularly when skin is treated with cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping.

This article discusses various aspects of trichoscopy for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders and reports no clinical results, offering guidance and highlighting pitfalls for better application of this tool by dermatologists.

This study suggested that electron spin resonance techniques can potentially measure gamma ray exposure in human hair samples, though variability and time sensitivity pose challenges for accurate dose estimation.

This review discusses the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing systemic diseases and concludes that certain trichoscopic features may help dermatologists suspect these conditions.

This tool was developed to enhance reproducibility and sensitivity in measuring partial hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients, particularly those undergoing JAK inhibitor therapy, using scalp photographs.
