In this retrospective case-control study, researchers reported that patients with alopecia areata had significantly increased odds of venous thromboembolism compared to matched controls, suggesting a potential association between alopecia areata and risk of VTE.

This case report describes a rare side effect of finasteride in a young male being treated for androgenic alopecia.

In this study, VVF was found to be a highly variable and unreliable measure of void space in granular scaffolds, sensitive to various input parameters and less predictive than particle count.

This study found that preventing abnormal mineral ion homeostasis in vitamin D receptor knockout mice stopped bone abnormalities, while the animal's skin phenotype arose from direct receptor effects independent of vitamin D.

Follicular red dots can appear where alopecia areata and vitiligo overlap.

This study suggests that using UVFD to examine non-pigmented facial lesions can potentially enhance diagnostic accuracy and reduce unnecessary biopsies.

This study found that V-ATPase plays a role in the acidification of vas deferens fluid under the influence of testosterone in orchidectomized rats.

This case report describes a middle-aged woman whose scalp condition, cutis verticis gyrata, was an early sign of systemic amyloidosis that went undiagnosed until after she experienced a stroke.

In this study, researchers observed that the absence of the vitamin D receptor or its ligand-activated transcription in mice did not affect glucose homeostasis or gene expression in islets.

This overview highlights the Dermatologic Surgery journal's detailed coverage of cosmetic and reconstructive skin surgery, but it reports no new research findings.

This study found that real-time 2-D Doppler echo of intracardiac blood flow helps evaluate myocardial infarction severity, with persistent late systolic inflow indicating worse left ventricular function.

In this quasi-experimental study, using avocados and VCO for hair loss treatment did not significantly differ among experimental groups, but showed significant improvement compared to the control group in reducing the amount of hair loss.

In this study, deleting the -catenin gene in vitamin D receptor-null mice did not prevent tumor development, suggesting -catenin's predicted protective role was not observed.

This study found that finasteride may reduce inappropriate sexual behaviors in geriatric patients with vascular dementia and benign prostate hyperplasia without serious side effects, though some patients required additional medications.

In this study, the researchers found that alopecia in VDR null mice is likely due to issues with hair cycle initiation rather than defects in keratinocyte proliferation or differentiation.

This study identified a novel bi-allelic missense variant in the DSC3 gene linked to severe Hypotrichosis with Recurrent Skin Vesicles in a Saudi child, supporting its role in the condition.

Low dose valproic acid treatment caused hair loss in a young patient.

This study reports a case of dermatophytosis, a zoonotic fungal infection, in an eleven-month-old spayed female dog, characterized by alopecia on the neck and ear, highlighting the condition's prevalence in hot, humid climates.

In this study, researchers identified a recurrent nonsense mutation, c.409C>T (p.Arg137*), in the COL7A1 gene through whole exome sequencing in a family with autosomal recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, demonstrating the importance of this method for diagnosing genetically complex conditions.

In this study, researchers observed that the absence of a functional vitamin D receptor in mice leads to impaired hair follicle regeneration due to defects in keratinocyte stem cells, resulting in alopecia.

This study found that the vertex/occiput ratios of hair density and diameter in prepubertal children may serve as reference values to identify androgenetic alopecia with high probability.

This case report suggests that dutasteride may be a potential cause of cerebral venous thrombosis, as observed in a 25-year-old male presenting with headache and diplopia that improved after discontinuing the drug.

This study introduces ScalpViT, a new deep learning model that accurately diagnoses visually similar scalp diseases with 94.3% accuracy, outperforming other methods like ResNet-50 and EfficientNet-B3, and providing dual visual explainability through GradCAM and Attention Rollout, potentially benefiting diagnosis in resource-limited settings in India.

This case report describes a young girl with trichothiodystrophy and suggests the need for early diagnosis and multidisciplinary interventions for her educational challenges.
