This article reviews the use of superficial temporal artery island flaps for facial reconstruction and provides a systematic approach for managing composite facial defects, reporting no major complications in 72 patients.

This study found that a mathematical model predicts signaling heterogeneity in epithelial outer root sheath cells is necessary for hair follicles to maintain size and grow long hair fibers, supported by molecular experiments.

In this case report, successful scalp reconstruction was achieved for a 67-year-old man using a super thin DIEP flap, a technique adapted from breast reconstruction that shows promise in head and neck surgeries for improving wound contour and skin coverage.

This case report describes a 50-year-old man with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides stage IB, noting trichoscopic findings like dilated follicular openings, black dots, and dystrophic hairs, which are less commonly documented in this condition, suggesting trichoscopy could aid in early diagnosis.

Vascular patterns in dermoscopy help tell apart malignant and benign skin tumors.

In this study, the researchers used dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome exhibit a central fat distribution pattern despite not having increased overall fat compared to controls, suggesting this method's potential utility in diagnosing and monitoring PCOS.

This study found that dermoscopy is effective for distinguishing Tinea Capitis from Alopecia Areata by identifying unique trichoscopic features specific to each condition.

The study concluded that a 'Swiss cheese' pattern in hair follicles is a useful sign for diagnosing alopecia areata.

This report describes successful scalp resurfacing using serial tissue expansion with a tissue expander in two patients with large lesions, suggesting this method can effectively treat extensive hairless scalp areas.

Follicular red dots can appear where alopecia areata and vitiligo overlap.

This study found that both trichoscopy and folliscopy are highly accurate for diagnosing telogen effluvium, but trichoscopy is easier and quicker to perform.

This study describes a traditional Slovac hairstyle in Northeastern Yugoslavia that may contribute to a mild form of alopecia in middle-aged and older women.

This study describes a newly observed "inflammatory vellus involvement" pattern in early frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may lead to misdiagnosis due to the absence of typical histological features.

The authors concluded that their new grading system can effectively classify early female pattern hair loss and evaluate treatment progress.

This study found that intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide or pulse therapy effectively treats alopecia areata with manageable side effects, but further strategies are needed to reduce relapse rates.

This article reports a case study of recurrent trichilemmal carcinoma of the scalp, highlighting its clinico-radiological and pathological features, along with its unique characteristics compared to other skin cancers.

This study describes how feather pigmentation in birds is regulated by melanocyte distribution, differentiation, and patterned agouti expression, contributing to diverse and adaptive color patterns.

This study found that 448-kHz Capacitive-Resistive Electrothermal Therapy led to a significant increase in hair density in women with Female Pattern Hair Loss, likely due to stimulated proliferation of dermal papilla cells.

This article discusses a combined strip and follicular unit extraction method along with an intraoperative calculation model to reduce over-extraction and wastage in hair transplantation and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that human hair surfaces exhibit nonhomogeneous wettability, potentially influenced by daily rhythms and even monthly changes possibly linked to the menstrual cycle.

This case report details a 2-year-old girl who developed hypertrichosis on areas of her skin affected by multiple insect bites and subsequent scratching, resulting in unusual hair growth.

This case report suggests that tufted hair formation can occur in localized exudative inflammatory scalp lesions, as observed in a Japanese man with pemphigus vulgaris.

Changing hairstyles can help hair regrow in children with hair loss from tight braids or ponytails.

This study reported that a novel trilayer electrospinning wound dressing can improve the wound microenvironment and accelerate repair in abdominal wall defects by facilitating directional biofluid transport and reducing inflammation.

In this study, trichoscopy was used to diagnose female androgenic alopecia with 92% specificity by identifying specific hair and scalp patterns.

This paper describes a systematic approach to creating a natural hairline in one session using modern hairline design principles and reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that white dots, focal atrichia, and honeycomb pigmentation on the scalp were significantly associated with the severity of androgenetic alopecia in men under forty.

In this study, trichoscopy was highlighted as a valuable diagnostic tool for traction alopecia, particularly in black women, revealing common signs like vellus hair and hair casts, although it requires a suggestive clinical history for effective use.

This study found that hair follicles in mouse skin use common activator/inhibitor signals to maintain cyclical hair growth across different regions, with varying dynamics influenced by distinct anatomical domains.

This phase I study found that MK-2206 was well tolerated and demonstrated evidence of AKT signaling blockade in patients with advanced solid tumors, with the maximum-tolerated dose established at 60 mg.
