This study observed that thyroid and hormone treatments did not resolve postpartum alopecia in a small patient group, and most cases may naturally revert to normal.

This case report of a 15-year-old girl suggests a direct association between extremely severe hypothyroidism and unusual cutaneous manifestations, such as psoriasiform lesions and abscesses, which improved with thyroid supplementation.

This historical observation found that parathyroid extract treatment in newborn rats led to a condition resembling scleroderma, characterized by skin hardening, calcium deposition, and possible necrosis.

This case report describes two patients with trichothiodystrophy who exhibited a different pattern of hair protein composition changes, suggesting a subgroup of TTD characterized by partial loss of high-sulfur proteins without significant alteration in their amino acid composition.

The authors concluded that capecitabine and high-dose toremifene may be an effective treatment option for patients unable to undergo anthracycline or taxane therapies, based on one woman's cancer management.

In this study, combining thalidomide with CHOP treatment showed a significantly higher effective rate in treating peripheral T-cell lymphoma compared to CHOP alone, while both regimens were associated with similar levels of adverse reactions.

Iodine is absorbed by hair just below the skin surface.

This study found that combining oral testosterone with dutasteride increased testosterone bioavailability in hypogonadal men while suppressing dihydrotestosterone levels over a 28-day period.

Higher 3α,5α-THP levels in the brain may reduce depression in pregnant rats.

This case report describes the first successful use of telitacicept in treating a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus and a history of papillary thyroid carcinoma, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic option for such conditions.

This source reports that trastuzumab deruxtecan improves outcomes in HER2-positive and HER2-low metastatic breast cancer, emphasizing the need for careful adverse event monitoring, particularly for interstitial lung disease, and managing emetic risk to maximize benefits.

This case report identifies an association between trichothiodystrophy and a urologic malformation with primary hypercalciuria, adding to the spectrum of TTD-related abnormalities.

This integrative review analyzed nutritional interventions for Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) and found that treatments such as micronutrient supplementation, anti-inflammatory diets, and lifestyle changes may help manage symptoms, though the effectiveness varied among studies.

This systematic review of Mendelian randomization studies reports that autoimmune thyroid disease is associated with increased risk for numerous health conditions, including coronary atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, while decreasing risks for others, such as lung cancer.

This study observed that while low vitamin D levels are associated with increased risk of autoimmune thyroid diseases, evidence from clinical trials on vitamin D supplementation shows inconsistent effects on thyroid function and disease progression, underscoring the need for further research.

This case study illustrates the successful treatment of chronic diffuse telogen effluvium in a young woman attributed to latent iron deficiency and emphasizes the importance of comprehensive assessment in similar cases.

This article presents a unique case of post-partum panhypopituitarism and autoimmune conditions in a 37-year-old woman from Africa, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and treatment to improve outcomes in similar settings.

This study found that topical Dithranol 0.5% is more effective than topical Tacrolimus 0.1% for hair regrowth in patients with alopecia areata, with 40% of Dithranol-treated patients showing over 80% hair regrowth compared to 23.33% for Tacrolimus-treated patients.

This article discusses telogen effluvium in women, its causes, and typical diagnostic methods, but reports no new research findings on clinical outcomes or treatments.

This study documented three cases of acute thallium poisoning—one involving accidental overdose and two linked to intentional homicide—characterized by neurological and systemic symptoms, and in severe instances, death, underscoring thallium compounds' significant toxicity.

Dithranol reduces inflammation in alopecia areata by lowering certain immune responses.

This study reports that despite normal cystine incorporation into hair follicles, trichothiodystrophy patients have decreased cystine levels in hair shafts, contradicting the hypothesis of defective transport in hair follicles.

This study found that several preservatives, including triclocarban and triclosan, showed potential endocrine-disrupting effects on various nuclear receptors in both in silico and in vitro models.

In this randomized control trial, the researchers found that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide led to higher hair density increases than Vitamin D supplementation in alopecia areata patients, although potential hair regrowth was also noted with Vitamin D in those with deficient levels.

A woman with multiple autoimmune diseases showed improvement in hair loss but not in skin discoloration after treatment.

This study found that a single application of TCDD on the skin of hairless mice altered epidermal differentiation, changing keratin expression patterns similarly to a known tumor promoter.

This study found that testosterone-enanthate increased red blood cell production and altered iron homeostasis in older hypogonadal men without being affected by finasteride, indicating these effects do not require type II 5α-reductase enzyme activity.

This review details the skin and hematological toxicities of tyrosine kinase inhibitors like erlotinib, gefitinib, and imatinib, and highlights ongoing concerns about cardiac toxicity, reporting no new clinical findings.
