In this case report, a 5-year-old boy presented with an itchy patch of hair loss in the frontotemporal region, with trichoscopy revealing specific hair shaft features, such as black dots and corkscrew hairs.

This study concluded that specific SNPs in the TRPS1 gene significantly alter its protein structure, affecting interactions and contributing to the development of congenital hypertrichosis.

Ets2 gene is crucial for placental development in mice.

This study found that trichoscopy can diagnose genetic hair shaft abnormalities without plucking or cutting hair, by visualizing characteristic features in a single session.

This study investigated demographic and clinical characteristics of twenty-nail dystrophy in Korea, identifying differences in subtype and gender predominance between children and adults.

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 suggests that curcumin-loaded nanoparticles, which activate autophagy and reduce oxidative stress, showed promise in promoting hair growth in an androgenetic alopecia mouse model.

This article discusses the advancements in follicular unit transplantation for hair restoration and reports no clinical results; it emphasizes improved aesthetic outcomes using updated techniques.

This study found that prophylactically administering amotosalen-treated allogeneic donor T cells at transplantation significantly improved immune reconstitution and protection against murine cytomegalovirus infection without inducing graft-versus-host disease.

This study assessed oral tofacitinib's effectiveness and safety in treating different forms of alopecia, finding that 80% of patients experienced hair regrowth improvements over 24 weeks with no adverse events reported.

Farudodstat may effectively treat alopecia areata without harmful side effects.

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 review discusses how increased gene copy number for telomerase components may contribute to telomerase up-regulation in cancer cells, although the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.

This study found that waving virgin human hair with thioglycerol at pH 9.0 using ammonia solution caused less damage than using thioglycolic acid, while maintaining good waving efficiency.

This report describes the sonographic characteristics of a proliferating trichilemmal tumor in the subungual region, identifying it as a heterogeneous mass with echogenic foci, potentially representing keratin and cholesterol.

Changing hairstyles can prevent hair loss caused by tension.

This study found that trichorrhexis nodosa, a cause of unexplained hair loss, is often linked to mechanical trauma rather than a metabolic defect.

This study found that treatment with diphenylcyclopropenone led to more than 75% hair regrowth in 33.3% of patients with alopecia totalis or alopecia universalis, despite notable side effects.

This study found that TSC2-null fibroblast cells from TSC skin hamartomas can induce hair follicle formation and hamartomatous changes in keratinocytes, with active mTOR signaling observable in a mouse xenograft model.

This study found that finasteride significantly inhibits the metabolism of tirilazad to its active metabolites without greatly affecting tirilazad's overall clearance.

This article discusses telogen effluvium as a common type of temporary hair loss due to stress, but it does not report new findings; the authors highlight ongoing hair growth.

In this study, the authors evaluated 200 Egyptian children with focal non-cicatricial alopecia, finding that alopecia areata (42%) and tinea capitis (40.5%) were the most prevalent causes. Trichoscopy identified unique features for each condition, enhancing diagnosis and management.

In this case report, the authors suggest that a novel enhancer element's translocation near the TRPS1 gene may contribute to the TRPS phenotype, expanding understanding of the syndrome's genetic basis.

This case report identifies a novel CDH3 gene mutation associated with hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy in a 13-year-old Turkish girl, highlighting implications for future genetic analysis and counseling.

This study describes a new radiation method called three-dimensional moving field radiation therapy, which showed improved tumor targeting and reduced damage to surrounding tissues compared to traditional one-plane methods.

This review discusses the various triggers and diagnostic challenges in determining the cause of telogen effluvium-related hair loss, without providing new clinical results.

This study observed that the degradation product PTeCA significantly increased in hair treated with oxidative cosmetics, suggesting it could be a reliable marker for detecting such treatments, with a proposed PTCA cut-off value using PTeCA as the gold standard.

This study found that contrast enhanced phototrichogram (CE-PTG) significantly improved detection of various hair types and growth stages in androgenetic alopecia compared to standard PTG and was comparable to biopsy analysis.

This article reviews the characteristics and treatment options for various dermatophyte infections, highlighting that systemic treatment is essential for tinea capitis while topical treatments are generally effective for other types.
