This study found a strong correlation between the Sinclair Scale and cumulative hair thickness density, allowing the estimation of the Sinclair Scale from trichoscopy-derived statistics.

This study suggests that coexisting LSS and TSPEAR variants might contribute to a complex phenotype of congenital hypotrichosis and ectodermal abnormalities in a child, and highlights the need for cautious interpretation of genotype-phenotype links and the potential value of broader genetic testing.

This study involved using smartphone applications and low-cost trichoscopy devices to assess various hair and scalp conditions, with diagnoses confirmed through detailed imaging during remote consultations and in-person evaluations.

This study suggests that nanostructured lipid carriers loaded with spironolactone might improve localized delivery to hair follicles for treating androgenic alopecia, potentially minimizing systemic side effects.

This study found no significant differences in thyrotropin levels among patients with different types of nonscarring alopecia, though racial differences were observed in alopecia areata and telogen effluvium.

This case report describes a woman who developed trichotillomania during long COVID and saw improvement in symptoms with the SSRI escitalopram.

In this study, newly diagnosed women with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome and those with alopecia experienced significantly poorer health-related quality of life.

This study suggests that individuals with severe sickle cell disease, indicated by higher hemoglobin S and ferritin levels, may have lower cortisol levels as shown by reduced hair cortisol content.

This letter to the editors describes a case of diffuse congenital hypotrichosis simplex with associated hair shaft fragility but reports no new clinical findings.

This report describes the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic anserine folliculosis in children, highlighting its distinct skin features and suggesting tretinoin cream as an effective remedy.

This study examined dermoscopic features in African-American women with different types of alopecia and found that a perifollicular pink blush, potentially indicating inflammation, was common, particularly resolved with anti-inflammatory treatment, suggesting dermoscopy could aid in management.

In this study, researchers found that CCCA in women of African descent is associated with molecular changes, including dysregulation of fatty acid metabolism and fibrosis pathways, suggesting potential targets for new treatments.

This article outlines the comprehensive content of the Dermatologic Surgery journal, which covers a wide range of topics related to cosmetic and reconstructive skin surgery, including skin cancer, but presents no new clinical results.

This study reports that 2-(1-Adamantyl)-4H-thiochromen-4-on-6-O-sulfamate is the most potent steroid sulfatase inhibitor identified so far, exhibiting 170-fold higher activity than the lead compound estrone sulfamate.

This case report describes a 30-year-old man's scleroderma-like skin changes and segmental thrombosis in the left leg, along with elevated blood sugar and advised weight management and limb care.

The researchers reported that administration of the antioxidant compound TS-13 in mice with chemotherapy-induced alopecia accelerated hair regrowth, although it did not fully prevent chemotherapy-related hair loss, suggesting TS-13 may aid in managing hair loss without negating the cancer treatment's effectiveness.

This case report describes a rare instance of double-lined frontoparietal scleroderma en coup de sabre and suggests a genetic basis involving postzygotic mosaicism.

In this study, TASP0382088 showed potent selective inhibition of the ALK5 receptor, significantly reducing Smad2 phosphorylation in mouse skin following topical application.

This review discusses hair tourniquet syndrome, highlighting its potential for delayed diagnosis and the association with maternal telogen effluvium, but reports no new clinical results.

This study by Dr. Manka and colleagues reported that thyroid hormones play a significant role in regulating hepatic stellate cells, influencing liver fibrosis progression via TGFβ signaling. They found that TRα signaling might enhance scar-free tissue regeneration, offering potential pathways for targeted liver fibrosis treatments.

This case report details two patients with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome who showed marked skin lesion improvement with corticosteroid treatment, though cicatricial scalp alopecia remained unresponsive.

This study reports that transplantation of an ESCs-collagen-chitin biomimetic membrane leads to successful in situ skin regeneration, including hair follicle cell proliferation and formation of dermatoglyphs, in nude mice with full-thickness skin defects.

In this case report, a female patient with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa showed significant improvement in symptoms, including hair loss and lesions, after six months of treatment with tofacitinib, with no recurrence or adverse effects over a two-year follow-up.

TSH influences keratin expression in human hair follicles.

Temporal triangular alopecia is a lifelong condition with hairless patches on the side of the head that may be present from birth.

This study concluded that mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue harvested using laser-assisted liposuction with selective photo-stimulation are as effective and low-risk for cell therapy as those obtained through conventional liposuction, based on their differentiation potential, cellular proliferation, and cytokine expression.

This review discusses the clinical trials of clascoterone 1% cream for acne vulgaris and reports no new results; the authors highlight its novel role as a topical antiandrogen.

This article describes a rare case of syringolymphoid hyperplasia with alopecia and anhidrosis in a female patient, emphasizing challenges in diagnosis and treatment unresponsiveness despite the condition's link to mycosis fungoides.

In this study, researchers examined two new cases of trichothiodystrophy and observed that the condition is linked to decreased synthesis of high-sulfur matrix proteins in hair.

This study identified a novel bi-allelic missense variant in the DSC3 gene linked to severe Hypotrichosis with Recurrent Skin Vesicles in a Saudi child, supporting its role in the condition.
