This case report describes a 65-year-old man's trichofolliculoma, a hair follicle-origin tumor, which appeared as a persistent cheek pore extrusion and was removed at the patient's request.

In this study, Trichophyton verrucosum was identified as the cause of human ringworm infections mainly affecting farm workers or their families, with lesions most common in winter and requiring specific treatment approaches.

Thyroid-stimulating hormone affects hair follicles but doesn't change hair growth or color.

This article discusses the use of trichoscopy as a helpful tool for early diagnosis and monitoring of dissecting cellulitis, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a rare instance of a patient with trichotillomania also developing a gastric trichobezoar, leading to Rapunzel syndrome.

This study mapped monilethrix, a hereditary hair and nail disorder, to the type II keratin cluster on chromosome 12q, marking the first primary human hair disorder localization and implicating defects in "hard" keratins.

This review details the use of trichoscopy for analyzing hair and scalp structures to differentiate between types of alopecia but does not report new clinical results.

This article discusses monilethrix in a 6-year-old girl, explores various aspects of the disease, and its treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a young girl with trichothiodystrophy and suggests the need for early diagnosis and multidisciplinary interventions for her educational challenges.

This review discusses the diagnostic and treatment challenges of trichotillomania and emphasizes the need for better-designed studies to optimize treatment approaches.

This study found that the TrichoScan method detected significant increases in hair counts and cumulative hair thickness in men after finasteride treatment, suggesting its potential for monitoring hair treatment responses.

This Viewpoint discusses the utility of dermoscope in routine practice and how familiarity with dynamic vs static trichoscopy may address its limitations, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, the researchers introduced a mutation in mice to mimic Olmsted syndrome and found that the mutation caused hair loss due to impaired keratinocyte differentiation and depletion of hair follicle stem cells.

This study concluded that TrichoScan is error-prone in its current form and overestimates certain hair growth parameters, with results not aligning with clinical severity of alopecia.

This study attempts to define normal post-transplant trichoscopic patterns in patients with androgenetic alopecia, highlighting several findings, but suggests longer follow-up studies are needed to confirm these observations.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This study aimed to identify trichoscopic features that help differentiate between tinea capitis and alopecia areata in children, enhancing diagnosis and treatment decisions visually and non-invasively.

This study found that the tetracycline-regulated transcription system effectively controls conditional gene expression in the mouse epidermis, allowing suppression and activation of specific genes with doxycycline.

In this case report, researchers documented a 19-year-old male professional athlete with acquired trichorrhexis nodosa, noting environmental factors like chlorine exposure during swimming may have contributed to his condition, which improved after advice on hair care changes.

This study found that lentiviral vector tropism in three-dimensional skin tissue is distinct from keratinocytes in culture and is influenced by complex extracellular interactions.

This article presents five family cases of monilethrix and reports that neither vitamins nor desquamative ointments are effective treatments, although symptoms may spontaneously regress over time.

This study reported that trichoscopy can identify specific hair shaft abnormalities linked to increased serological activity, highlighting its use as a valuable non-invasive diagnostic tool in pediatric dermatology for neonates with ECS.

This study found that overexpression of parathyroid hormone-related peptide in transgenic mice skin disrupted normal hair follicle development, suggesting a role for the peptide in the early stages of follicle formation.

This study found that HLA-B*57 and HLA-Cw*06 were associated with increased risk of psoriasis vulgaris, while KIR2DL2 was more prevalent in controls, suggesting a protective effect.

In this case study, a 69-year-old male with a neck swelling was diagnosed with a trichilemmal cyst, highlighting the importance of complete surgical excision for lesions with proliferative or malignant potential.

In this study, researchers reported that dermatoscopy effectively differentiates between various types of alopecia and scalp disorders, offering a fast, minimally invasive diagnostic method that improves the standard of care and reduces the necessity for scalp biopsies.

This study found that trichoscopy is an effective method for monitoring treatment response in androgenetic alopecia when conducted by doctors experienced in hair diseases, showing excellent agreement with TrichoScan measurements for various hair parameters.

This review discusses the psychological and neurobiological aspects of trichotillomania and reports no new results, emphasizing the need for further research on its treatment and neural mechanisms.

Hair transplant complications were likely due to deep graft placement and rough handling.
