This study found that basal cell epithelioma resembles fetal primary epithelial germ based on specific cellular characteristics.

This study found that immunotherapy with DNCB or DPCP showed better therapeutic effects than intralesional triamcinolone acetonide for patients with bald areas greater than 50 cm², including alopecia totalis and universalis.

This study observed that hair regrowth in mice was irregular and delayed more in older mice, with increased enzyme activities in hair re-growing areas compared to non-growing areas.

This study reports that different adhesion molecules play distinct roles in the morphogenesis of feathers and hair, influencing processes such as mesenchymal condensation, epithelial folding, and cell death.

This article discusses the distribution of extracellular matrix molecules in human hair follicles and reports no new results.

This study found that topical minoxidil increased heart rate and had significant effects on cardiac volumes and mass compared to placebo, but its long-term safety remains uncertain.

This report describes a case of hypertrichosis associated with minoxidil use and suggests that nearly all patients on this drug may experience this side effect.

This review provides a framework for diagnosing acquired scalp alopecias and discusses both non-scarring and scarring types, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, five women with androgenetic alopecia experienced severe facial and limb hypertrichosis after using 5% topical minoxidil, which resolved after discontinuing the treatment.

This study observed that epidermal growth factor and fibroblast growth factor have distinct roles in sheep skin, with EGF involved in differentiation and FGF in bulb proliferation and fiber growth.

This article presents two cases of tinea capitis in postpubertal individuals highlighting the importance of early treatment to prevent scarring and permanent hair loss; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that sodium valproate effectively controlled petit mal seizures in children resistant to other anticonvulsants but was less effective for other seizure types.

This case report describes a 5-month-old Japanese infant with biotin deficiency, where daily oral biotin supplementation led to significant improvements in skin conditions and hair growth.

This review evaluates previous studies on androgen-progestin combinations for male contraception, concluding that long-acting injectable formulations appear promising due to their effectiveness and minimal short-term adverse effects.

This study found that minoxidil 2% increased nonvellus hair counts in women with female androgenetic alopecia without causing serious side effects, compared to a placebo.

This study found that obese patients experienced similar weight loss on a very low-calorie diet and total fast, but the diet was associated with fewer complications.

This study found decreased hair density and altered follicular architecture in the balding frontal scalp of patients with androgenic alopecia, with increased vellus hairs noted.

In this case study, medical management with trilostane improved clinical signs and normalized serum chemistry in a dog diagnosed with adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism over 80 weeks of treatment.

This article outlines management guidelines for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting that continued treatment with medications like finasteride or minoxidil typically halts progression and improves hair condition in most mild to moderate cases.

This study found that androgen receptor expression varied across different types of skin appendage tumors, with specific expression patterns noted in sebaceous and sweat gland tumors but absent in hair follicle tumors.

This review describes an improved scalp reduction technique that removes two to three times more bald skin than previous methods, utilizing wide undermining, serial relaxing incisions, and adrenocorticosteroids.

This study found that human keratinocytes' sensitivity and response to vitamin D3 analogues vary based on cell density, serum availability, and calcium concentration.

Hair loss in women often doesn't follow a pattern, isn't linked to age, may be genetic, and can be related to thyroid issues or other health factors.

In this study, men with androgenic alopecia taking minoxidil gel generally showed no evidence of psychological malfunction, but those over 35 experienced greater psychological improvement when they had cosmetic success with the treatment.

This study suggests 5α‐androstan‐3α‐17β‐diol may be the true inducer of kidney enzymes in certain mice, while its induction mechanism likely involves pinocytosis rather than a receptor protein.

In this study, a patient with cystic fibrosis developed iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome due to impaired clearance of budesonide from concurrent itraconazole use, highlighting the need for regular monitoring in such combination therapies.

This study reported a predominance of adult patients, mostly women, with Trichophyton violaceum tinea capitis in southern Taiwan, noting a bimodal age distribution and questioning whether this represents a new trend.

Minoxidil effectively controls blood pressure but side effects may limit its use.

This study found that specific histologic features in skin biopsies can help support a diagnosis of traumatic alopecia (trichotillomania), but not all markers are distinct to the condition.

In this study, a combined therapy of Cyclosporine A and ketoconazole resolved anal furunculosis in dogs within 10 weeks, but recurrences were noted in about 37% of cases.
