The authors maintain there is a significant link between vitamin D deficiency and central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in Black patients, and call for more research on the topic.

The study reports that the AVET system showed higher efficiency in transfecting cultured human keratinocytes compared to SuperFect and PrimeFector, with AVET reaching levels of enzyme activity similar to normal cells in keratinocytes from lamellar ichthyosis patients.

This study found that adding procapil to minoxidil was more effective than minoxidil alone in improving hair count, patient satisfaction, and dermatologist assessment scores for treating androgenetic alopecia over 12 months.

This report describes the first known case of Kaposi's varicelliform eruption occurring after a follicular unit extraction procedure, possibly linked to surgical trauma and post-surgical steroid use.

In this study, a novel DCAF17 gene mutation was identified in a Chinese family, suggesting a potential role in pancreatic β cell dysfunction and diabetes development in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome.

This study found that the transcription factor CAP1 negatively regulates KRT83 expression in Tan sheep, possibly influencing their curly hair phenotype.

This review discusses challenges in managing cutaneous drug reactions to anticonvulsants and reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the complexity of discontinuing or rechallenging suspected agents.

This report describes two cases where a viral vector COVID-19 vaccine was associated with the recurrence of cutaneous lymphoma conditions that had been in remission.

This study found that intracorneal vacuoles were common in various parakeratotic skin diseases in dogs, but large vacuoles were exclusively observed in congenital follicular parakeratosis.

This study identified and characterized progenitor cells from equine feet that may play a role in the pathogenesis and recovery of laminitis, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for treatment.

This study found that disruptions in planar cell polarity signaling are implicated in congenital heart defects and cardiomyopathy in developing mouse hearts, associated with early cardiomyocyte disorganization and improper heart looping.

This study observed that grey patch is the most common variant of tinea capitis in northeastern India, with T. violaceum being the predominant fungal isolate.

This study reported that severe hair disturbances in infants and young children are associated with acute vitamin deficiencies in tropical America, unlike the milder cases observed in the United States.

In this study, dry powder inhalers containing Cepharanthine were administered to rats with acute lung injury, significantly reducing pulmonary edema, hemorrhage, and inflammatory markers, suggesting its potential as an effective anti-inflammatory treatment when inhaled directly into the lungs.

In this report, researchers describe a 13-month-old with neurodevelopmental disorder NEDESBA, confirming a TRAPPC4 gene mutation as the cause after excluding biotinidase deficiency, highlighting the importance of molecular testing for accurate diagnosis in overlapping metabolic and genetic conditions.

In this study, two cases of cutis verticis gyrata were associated with chronic traction alopecia due to tight hairstyles, highlighting the need to consider hairstyling history in diagnosis and management.

This study found that the PPARγ modulator NAC-GED-0507-Levo may protect hair follicles from chemotherapy-induced damage, potentially offering a strategy to address irreversible hair loss in cancer patients.

In this case report, a 28-year-old woman's tinea capitis, diagnosed using a Wood's lamp, was successfully treated with oral itraconazole and ketoconazole shampoo over eight weeks.

This study found that caffeic acid reduced UVB-induced damage and oxidative stress in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting its protective efficacy against such cellular damage.

This study tested a novel cryo-carboxy dispensing device for treating androgenetic alopecia in six volunteers and found an unexpectedly rapid and positive response, with significant hair regrowth observed by day 90, prompting early conclusion of the trial.

This study found that applying both dehydrothermal treatment and carbodiimide crosslinking improved the mechanical properties of porcine acellular dermal matrix scaffolds without added cytotoxicity, suggesting potential applications in tissue engineering.

This Phase 1 study reported that topical application of BPM31543 was safe and well-tolerated in patients receiving taxane-based chemotherapy, with some experiencing less than 50% hair loss, suggesting potential efficacy in reducing chemotherapy-induced alopecia, although no maximum tolerated dose was identified.

This study found that topical BPM31543 was safe, tolerable, and showed potential to reduce chemotherapy-induced alopecia at higher dosing levels among adult women with cancer receiving taxane-based chemotherapy.

This study found that several genes, including capping protein, palladin, VEGF, and HSPC-related clones, might cooperatively influence the aggregation, proliferation, and cycle control of dermal papilla cells, potentially affecting hair follicle behavior.

In this study, researchers found that a cold atmospheric plasma-activated hydrogel containing interleukin-2 significantly enhanced hair regeneration in a depilated mouse model, promoting larger hair follicles and faster hair growth phase transition, suggesting it as a potential treatment for hair loss.

This study observed that using the Fisher score feature selection approach with capsule network models led to a promising 94% accuracy in diabetes detection, indicating its potential as a diagnostic tool.

This paper discusses tinea capitis in adults, emphasizing that it particularly affects postmenopausal African American or Black women, and notes challenges in treatment due to antifungal resistance.

This case report describes a 32-year-old man with therapy-resistant acneiform eruptions later diagnosed as vellus hair cysts, emphasizing the condition as a potential diagnostic consideration in similar cases.

This study found that repetitive 532 nm laser therapy significantly decreased scores for macules, pigmented, and vascular lesions on the facial area, regardless of skin phototype or age.
