This study found that mimicking the XPD point mutation in mice resulted in trichothiodystrophy-like symptoms, supporting the role of basal transcription and DNA repair defects in the disease.

This case report discusses the diagnosis and management of temporal triangular alopecia in a pediatric patient experiencing asymptomatic hair loss, emphasizing its nonprogressive nature and poor prognosis for regrowth.

This review discusses traction alopecia, its causes, and common treatments, noting a lack of data on effective treatment options; the authors emphasize altering hair care practices to potentially reverse early-stage alopecia.

In this case report, a young female Indian patient with alopecia areata saw hair regrowth within 2 months of treatment with oral tofacitinib, with continued improvements over a 5-month period and no reported side effects.

Traction alopecia is hair loss from pulling on hair too much.

This case report aims to raise physician awareness about 'toe-tourniquet' syndrome, which can lead to digit loss if not promptly treated, and to prevent its misdiagnosis as child abuse.

Some drugs for inflammation may cause psoriasis-like hair loss.

This review discusses the causes and diagnosis of traction alopecia, emphasizing education for high-risk populations as there is currently no cure, and presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that topical alpha-terthienyl combined with UVA radiation rapidly induced dose-dependent cutaneous photosensitization in guinea pigs, suggesting potential for photochemotherapy in skin disorders without future carcinogenic risks.

This article discusses the patterns and variants of alopecia areata, including the rare sisaipho, but reports no new research findings.

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 case study reports that a pediatric patient with recalcitrant alopecia areata was treated using a 308 nm excimer lamp and topical tofacitinib 2% gel.

This study found that a short-term treatment with all-trans retinoic acid may effectively stabilize platelet counts in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura patients experiencing fluctuations during thrombopoietin receptor agonist therapy.

This case report describes a 42-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis who developed extensive impetiginized pityriasis amiantacea potentially linked to her anti-TNF-α therapy with golimumab. Discontinuing the drug and other treatments led to significant clinical improvement within a month.

The researchers reported two brothers with a new variant of X-linked trichothiodystrophy associated with an RNF113A gene mutation, highlighting features such as intellectual disability and growth failure, but without previously reported endocrinological or genital abnormalities, underlining the importance of genetic counseling for such variants.

This study found that both tofacitinib and methotrexate effectively reduced hair loss and psychological distress in patients with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, but tofacitinib showed much greater efficacy. Both treatments had similar safety profiles, with no serious adverse effects reported.

This study reviews the ethnobotanical and pharmacological uses of Guazuma tomentosa, highlighting its diverse applications in traditional medicine and research findings that demonstrate its potential anti-diabetic, anti-hypertensive, anti-microbial, anti-oxidant, anti-ulcer properties, and more, in various animal models.

This study identified two potent 5α-reductase inhibitors from Tectona grandis leaves, and suggests that ethanol is a preferable solvent for extracting these compounds, which are potential ingredients for hair loss treatments.
