This study found that dietary supplementation with 0.2% MSM improved hair quality in kittens and had no significant negative effects on their growth performance, antioxidant capacity, or gut microbiota.

This article reviews advances in the histologic evaluation of alopecia and hair-related disorders, without presenting new clinical results.

This review outlines pregnancy risks in systemic lupus erythematosus and emphasizes that active lupus nephritis at conception increases the risk of flares and poor obstetric outcomes; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study developed finite element models to examine skin's biomechanical properties, finding that structural heterogeneities like Rete ridges and hair follicles create distinct stress and strain patterns that may influence mechanosensation and skin integrity.

COVID-19 can cause long-term skin problems and has changed how skin doctors work.

This case report diagnosed an 8-year-old girl with trachyonychia and secondary onychomycosis, finding that spontaneous improvement is common, making specific therapy often unnecessary despite treatment challenges with associated fungal infections.

This study found that ZnO nanoparticles in topical skin products do not penetrate beyond the outer skin layers in humans, suggesting minimal safety concerns for subdermal absorption.

This article explains why modern hair transplant techniques can be effective for women with pattern hair loss, despite this being underrecognized.

This review suggests that platelet-rich plasma may be a promising treatment for immune-mediated alopecias, including alopecia areata and primary cicatricial alopecias, but definitive recommendations are limited due to insufficient high-quality evidence.

This article discusses the causes, development, treatment, and prevention strategies for pseudofolliculitis barbae and folliculitis keloidalis nuchae, but reports no new clinical results.

Laser technologies improve medical treatments and outcomes.

This research observed that diabetes impairs wound healing in mice by disrupting key mechanotransduction pathways in fibroblasts, which are crucial for the healing process. The study also suggests transcriptomic changes could inform future diabetic wound repair therapies.

New treatments and drugs show promise for improving skin pigmentation and regeneration.

The issue concluded that various skin conditions have different effective treatments and factors influencing them.

This review discusses the various common, rare, and unusual skin manifestations of lupus erythematosus and highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that enzymatic conversion of Arg-51 in S100A3 protein to citrulline promotes homotetramer assembly, potentially increasing Ca²⁺ binding required for hair cuticular barrier formation.

This study found that PBMCsec has anti-fibrotic effects on mouse and human skin scars by regulating pro-fibrotic gene expression and inhibiting myofibroblast differentiation and elastic fiber breakdown.

This review of current research suggests that combining microneedling with minoxidil, and possibly platelet-rich plasma or mesotherapy, may achieve better hair growth results for androgenetic alopecia than conventional methods.

This laboratory study found that activated platelet‐rich plasma supernatant enhanced hair growth signaling pathways in cultured human dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential for treating androgenic alopecia.

This expert group provided recommendations for preparing and using platelet-rich plasma in treating androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a manual double-spin method and specific dosing, although further studies on injectable platelet-rich fibrin are needed.

This study found that insect wax can significantly promote hair growth in mice in a way that is comparable to minoxidil, likely due to the upregulation of VEGF expression.

A new surgical technique using vellus hair grafts effectively treated vitiligo without causing unwanted hair growth.

This review highlights recent advances in understanding how the extracellular matrix regulates epidermal stem cell fate, emphasizing the importance of the hair follicle stem cell niche, but reports no new empirical findings.

This article reviews major types of genetic hair shaft defects and associated syndromes, emphasizing understanding histologic features and diagnostic methods, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this in silico study, researchers analyzed nonsynonymous SNPs in the LIPH gene linked to hypotrichosis and identified three potentially harmful variants (W108R, C246S, and H248N) out of 215 total, using sequence- and architecture-based bioinformatics techniques to differentiate between harmful and benign SNPs.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia experience diffuse hair loss due to a decrease in terminal hairs and an increase in vellus hairs per follicular unit.

This source reviews the latest developments in hair transplantation for androgenetic alopecia, suggesting that while medical therapy alone remains unsatisfactory, surgical hair restoration is shown to be highly gratifying for male pattern hair loss.

This study found that Annurca apple polyphenolic extracts reprogram hair follicle metabolism in mice, enhancing mitochondrial activity and keratin production while inhibiting some metabolic pathways.

In this study, researchers identified a gene expression pre-pattern and implicated the Wnt inhibitor Dickkopf 4 in the formation of color patterns in domestic cat embryos.

This study found that individuals with alopecia areata in the UK, particularly women and those of Asian ethnicity with lower income and severe symptoms, spent a significant portion of their disposable income on managing the condition, highlighting wigs and private dermatology services as primary expenses.
