The EADV Task Force on Hair Diseases reviewed existing literature and clinical experience to propose diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations for managing folliculitis decalvans, highlighting oral antibiotics, glucocorticosteroids, isotretinoin, and various systemic and topical therapies as key options for managing inflammation and preventing further hair loss.

In this study, a 68-year-old man with muscle-invasive bladder cancer and renal insufficiency achieved a partial radiological response to neoadjuvant therapy with gemcitabine and Disitamab Vedotin, without significant adverse events, highlighting a potential alternative for cisplatin-ineligible patients.

This case report diagnosed variegate porphyria in a 33-year-old woman based on significant laboratory abnormalities, but with clinical features resembling porphyria cutanea tarda.

This study found that FLASH radiation within a Spread-out Bragg Peak retained its normal tissue-sparing effect compared to conventional radiation, with a 40% reduction in acute skin damage and an 18% reduction in fibrotic development in mice.

In this study, overexpression of ornithine decarboxylase accelerated basal cell carcinoma in Ptch1+/– mice under UVB exposure, while its inhibition reduced tumor induction, suggesting potential chemoprevention strategies in humans.

In this case report, researchers document the first known instance of a dog developing both uveodermatological syndrome and alopecia areata concurrently, similar to occurrences in human patients, and provide a detailed overview of the clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up.

This study found that applying ferrous ferric chloride skin lotions to newborn mice stimulated skin cell proliferation and differentiation, increased hair growth, and inhibited alopecia-related hair loss.

In this study, researchers identified a unique Arg30stop mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene that causes hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in a young French-Canadian boy by truncating the receptor and causing hormone resistance.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This study reports that the loss of the protein Memo in mice leads to a reduced lifespan and suggests that Memo is a key regulator of FGFR signaling and vitamin D production.

This study described seven male patients and six female carriers of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, highlighting distinct dermatological and ophthalmic markers including follicular hyperkeratosis and corneal dystrophy.

This article discusses a journal-based CME activity on rare viral skin eruptions in pediatric transplant patients and reports no new clinical results; it aims to improve physicians' knowledge and treatment of this condition.

This study found that FGF signaling is necessary for the initiation of feather placode development in chicken embryos, with FGF10 being implicated as an early dermal signal in the process.

In this study, researchers reported that while systemic antibiotics are often chosen first for treating severe folliculitis decalvans, they have a high discontinuation rate, suggesting an urgent need for more effective immunomodulatory treatments.

This report discusses a case of vesiculopustular eruption in a patient with ulcerative colitis, highlighting the effective use of ustekinumab for treatment and suggesting its consideration in similar cases of IBD-related skin lesions.

This article reviews current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris, highlighting increasing incidence and unclear pathogenesis, and emphasizes the role of inflammatory destruction of hair follicular stem cells; it reports no new clinical findings.

In a murine burn wound model, this study found that an enhanced fractal self-pumping dressing significantly reduced wound area and tissue edema by efficiently draining excess exudates.

This case report describes a rare instance of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease in a 21-year-old Asian woman, highlighting unusual oral manifestations such as tooth discoloration and misalignment, which expand the known clinical spectrum of the disorder.

In this study, a very-low-calorie diet led to greater weight loss and improvements in hyperandrogenaemia and metabolic markers in obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to a moderate energy deficit approach over eight weeks.

This case report describes a 24-year-old male with eruptive vellus hair cysts on his forehead and explores the use of extraction videodermoscopy as a new, less invasive diagnostic method, potentially replacing the need for skin biopsy in diagnosing such skin conditions.

This study found that VDR polymorphisms, particularly ApaI and FokI variants, are associated with hormonal and metabolic disturbances in women with PCOS, with notable variations across different ethnicities.

This commentary discusses the feasibility and challenges of uterine transplantation for transgender women, emphasizing anatomical, hormonal, and ethical considerations without reporting new clinical results.

This case series reports successful treatment of refractory folliculitis decalvans using surgical excision with second-intention healing and guarded high-tension suturing, resulting in long-term remission without recurrence over a 10–24 month follow-up period.

This study identified five FDA-approved drugs, including cepharantine and clofazimine, as potential COVID-19 therapies through in silico and in vitro screening targeting viral entry mechanisms.

Robotic-assisted hair transplant is effective and less painful, but needs more evaluation for long-term results.

This study used fibre optic confocal imaging to visualize subsurface structures in live mouse skin, revealing cellular details and blood vessel networks that dynamic events could be studied in vivo.

This study found that dimethyl fumarate improved delayed wound healing in Il36rn-/- mice by reducing neutrophil extracellular trap formation and oxidative stress.

This study found that FGF-9 treatment in diabetic mice improved heart function after myocardial infarction by decreasing monocyte infiltration and promoting anti-inflammatory macrophage differentiation.
