This case study reports successful treatment of an 11-year-old girl's trichotillomania with cognitive behavioral therapy, mild topical treatments, and supportive parental involvement, without psychopharmacologic intervention.

This review summarizes recent findings about the multi-site differentiation of tissue regulatory T cells, emphasizing the pivotal role of epigenetic remodeling, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case report presents an instance of tufted hair folliculitis in a woman treated with trastuzumab, highlighting a previously unreported skin side effect of this selective HER2 inhibitor.

This review explores the potential of cell-mediated drug delivery systems in dermatology, highlighting their ability to target inflamed or diseased skin while discussing applications in diseases like atopic dermatitis and melanoma, along with challenges such as immunogenicity and manufacturing.

This case report described a five-year-old girl with alopecia areata totalis who experienced significant hair regrowth after receiving dental rehabilitation for extensive untreated caries and chronic oral infection, suggesting a possible link between chronic oral infection and alopecia areata.

This review discusses inherited forms of vitamin D-dependent rickets and explains their genetic and metabolic causes but reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that no evidence of tachyphylaxis was found in the treatment of scalp seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff using pyrithione zinc-based shampoos over a 48-week period.

This study found that both types of sheep hair follicle transglutaminases were calcium-dependent, contradicting earlier reports of calcium independence in this enzyme.

In this study, the researchers used a human hair follicle model to demonstrate that T cell stimulation can induce an alopecia areata–like phenotype, with cell proliferation and immune privilege collapse; however, the DHODH inhibitor farudodstat partially mitigated these effects by reducing T cell proliferation.

This case report describes a man with Touraine-Solente-Golé syndrome who achieved substantial improvement of tufted hair folliculitis after treatment with amoxicillin, clavulanic acid, and topical nadifloxacin.

This study found that adults with trichotillomania did not show differences in pain tolerance or exhibit analgesia to cold pressor pain compared to healthy controls.

In this study, tazarotene 0.1% gel showed greater efficacy than tretinoin 0.025% gel in reducing acne lesions and demonstrated similar efficacy to adapalene 0.1% gel when used less frequently.

This review highlights challenges in developing drugs targeting the Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway for cancer due to its complexity and essential roles in normal tissue. It explores targeted protein degradation technology as a promising strategy to overcome these challenges, suggesting potential new avenues for drug development.

This report describes two cases where alopecia areata occurred in conjunction with odontogenic infections, highlighting a mysterious association between dental infections and alopecia areata despite the known etiologies of the latter.

This study suggests that barophoresis may be feasible for delivering drugs to the gums in treating chronic generalized periodontitis, with an optimal gum-nozzle distance of 10-15 mm for safe application.

This study developed a prototype device that suggests potential for diagnosing changes in hair quantity, diameter, and density, though formal clinical studies are needed to confirm these findings.

This study reported that a newly developed hydrogel patch, designed to recruit regulatory T cells through ROS-triggered release of CCL22, improved wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in a diabetic mouse model by scavenging ROS, thereby protecting Tregs and suppressing Th17 cells.

This study suggests that silver-coating may enhance the healing of exit sites in peritoneal catheters in rats, with similar tunnel histomorphology indicating favorable biocompatibility compared to standard catheters.

This study developed a novel monoclonal antibody, TYHF-1, which specifically reacts with hair keratins but not with epidermal keratins or various other tissue cells.

This study demonstrated that the Turing bifurcation, typically a pitchfork bifurcation under zero-flux conditions, becomes transcritical under fixed boundary conditions, highlighting the importance of considering boundary condition variations in morphogenetic analyses.

This study found that dutasteride improved maximum urinary flow rate more effectively than finasteride when used in combination therapy with tamsulosin for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia over six months.

Blocking a protein called prostaglandin D2 might help treat hair loss.

A man developed a rare scalp disorder, Folliculitis Decalvans, 20 years after hair restoration surgery, and it required long-term antibiotic treatment.

Scalp cooling significantly reduces hair loss in chemotherapy patients.

In this study, researchers identified elongated corkscrew hairs as a new trichoscopic pattern in immunosuppressed adults with chronic endothrix tinea capitis, which may help in earlier diagnosis and targeted mycological investigation.

This article reviews 12 clinical applications for transcutaneous laser-assisted drug delivery in skin disorders and concludes that it has potential for broader treatment use.

This study reviewed the genetic and phenotypic aspects of Olmsted syndrome, highlighting pathogenic mutations in TRPV3 and MBTPS2 genes and their association with specific skin manifestations like symmetrical keratoderma and hyperkeratotic plaques.

This abstract highlights that preliminary results from the REDUCE trial indicate dutasteride may lower prostate cancer incidence by 23% in older men compared to a placebo.

This case report identified trichorrhexis nodosa in a patient, likely due to the topical use of an ayurvedic preparation containing calcium hydronide.
