This case report describes a 58-year-old male patient with alopecia frontal fibrosante in areas also affected by vitiligo, highlighting a possible association with autoimmune disorders.

In this study, the proposed MSF-VMDNet, combining dual encoder networks with a multi-frequency domain mechanism, significantly outperformed existing methods in segmenting skin cancer tissues from histological slide images, achieving high accuracy with an MIoU of 95.37% and a Dice coefficient of 95.11%.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor, but not its ligand, regulates genes involved in hair cycle progression, suggesting a role in integrating hormone signaling pathways for hair and epidermal functions.

In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.

This article discusses the introduction and market presence of the Italian hair product Kevis but presents no new clinical findings.

The document's conclusion cannot be provided because the document is not accessible or understandable.

This report describes the co-occurrence of vitiligo and alopecia areata in pediatric cases but provides no new clinical findings.

In this report, the researchers described a follicular dysplastic syndrome in two adult white-tailed deer, where gross alopecia and histologic signs suggestive of alopecia areata were observed, potentially predisposing affected deer to environmental exposure.

This study suggests that valine and certain VLDL subfractions are positively associated with androgenetic alopecia risk, while reverse analysis showed AGA does not affect these metabolites.

This study found that vitamin D supplementation in diets of Rex rabbits improved hair follicle development and fatty acid metabolism, with 1400–2100 IU/kg proving most effective for hair density and 2800 IU/kg increasing hair length.

This study found that the effects of the vitamin D receptor on hair follicle cycling in mice are independent of its ability to bind a hormone, with specific domain mutations influencing hair regrowth outcomes.

A heart transplant patient developed a skin condition called epidermodysplasia verruciformis after taking immune-suppressing drugs.

This study highlights the use of dermatoscopy as a valuable tool for diagnosing and monitoring alopecia areata, noting that specific hair shaft alterations such as exclamation-mark hairs and black dots are indicators of active disease, while vellus hairs signal early regrowth.

New method, hair distribution width (HDW), improves accuracy in diagnosing androgenetic alopecia (AGA).

USB videodermatoscopes are a practical and affordable alternative for diagnosing skin conditions.

In this study, two male patients with androgenetic alopecia who had previously undergone hair transplants showed increased hair regrowth after receiving verteporfin injections, with a 63% mean increase in dense donor sites, 38% in thinning areas, but no growth in bald areas.

This research highlights that engineered mice lacking the vitamin D receptor show multiple health issues similar to human vitamin D deficiency, underscoring the widespread impacts of the vitamin D endocrine system.

This article reviews the genetic and phenotypic characteristics of Trichothiodystrophy and discusses the associated DNA repair defects, but does not report new clinical findings.

This study explored using 3D models derived from reflectance confocal microscopy to better understand and differentiate melanoma on sun-damaged skin, suggesting enhanced diagnostic possibilities.

This study reports a rare case of an 8-year-old boy with both alopecia areata and vitiligo coexisting within the same lesion on his scalp.

This study found that testosterone impacts hair follicles from both affected and occipital regions in male pattern androgenetic alopecia, but with different androgen response-profiles, challenging the belief that occipital regions are androgen-insensitive.

This study demonstrated that AtVLN4 plays a role in root hair growth by regulating actin organization in a calcium-dependent manner.

This study observed that the lower part of vibrissa hair roots in adult Wistar rats receives a richer blood supply and structural protection, compared to the upper part.

This study revisits and reproduces Felix Pinkus' concept of the vitreous membrane in hair follicles, suggesting these structures may play a role in differentiation or nutrition due to their location in metabolically dynamic regions.

This case study reports that a heterozygous missense GJA1 mutation, p.Gly138Ser, in a 2-year-old boy with oculodentodigital syndrome primarily resulted in syndactyly, fifth finger hypoplasia, and hypotrichosis, without neurological or craniofacial abnormalities.
