This study found that combining dermoscopy with reflectance confocal microscopy is more sensitive and specific than using either method alone for assessing vitiligo disease activity and treatment response. Additionally, specific characteristics observed via these techniques correlated with either good or poor treatment outcomes.

This case report describes a 26-year-old woman with an uncommon presentation of varicella zoster virus interstitial keratitis misdiagnosed as corneal intraepithelial neoplasia; the correct identification using diagnostic tools such as AS-OCT prevented unnecessary surgical interventions and allowed for effective antiviral treatment.

This article discusses current visualization methods for assessing hair restoration therapy responses, noting imprecision in triangulated measurements and patient dissatisfaction with visible tattoos.

This review assesses existing knowledge about the 17q21.31 inversion polymorphism, highlighting its genetic structure differences across ancestries, associations with various diseases, and implications for precision medicine and drug discovery.

In this study, researchers developed a hybrid deep learning model called ScalpViT that accurately diagnosed scalp diseases with 94.3% accuracy, surpassing existing methods like ResNet-50 and EfficientNet-B3, and providing visual explainability for clinicians using GradCAM and Attention Rollout techniques.

This study presents a case where a young male with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale, using finasteride, experienced symptomatic improvement after PFO closure and discontinuing finasteride, suggesting cardiovascular risks associated with the drug.

This study found that the human hairline is closely linked to several cranial, cerebral, and vascular structures, enabling precise localization of key neuroanatomical landmarks, which could assist in planning neurosurgical procedures.

In this study using a rabbit model, higher incidences of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome were observed in animals given the α-blocker tamsulosin, suggesting a potential association with increased iris billowing during eye surgery.

This study found that 3D imaging may serve as a promising tool for objectively evaluating facial vitiligo repigmentation after treatment with upadacitinib.

In this study involving a mouse model, researchers reported that intranasal delivery of protein-based CRISPR/dCas9 nanoparticles targeting the gene *Sirt1* reduced cerebral edema and increased survival following ischemic stroke, with no significant toxicity observed.

This study suggests that glaucoma patients may face increased risk of optic nerve injury if prescribed medications that can lower blood pressure.

This study concluded that male mice are more susceptible to valproic acid-induced autism spectrum disorder than female mice, with noticeable differences in brain histoarchitecture and receptor protein levels.

This study found that current use of benzodiazepines, α1-blockers (like tamsulosin, alfuzosin, terazosin), finasteride, and possibly rivastigmine is associated with increased risk of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome in cataract surgery patients.

This report describes a patient with biotinidase deficiency presenting bilateral optic atrophy, and confirms autosomal recessive inheritance through enzyme dosage analysis in the patient and family members.

This paper discusses the use of Digital Volumetric Imaging with fluorescent dyes to visualize and compare the interior structures of six different virgin hair types, reporting no new clinical results.

This article discusses how the brain's neural circuits evaluate skin aging to judge social standing and suggests that people often attempt to deceive themselves and others about their true age.

This study found that Eclipta alba may protect against scopolamine-induced memory deficits in mice by reducing brain acetylcholinestrase activity and oxidative stress.

This study demonstrates a method using intravital imaging to observe sensory hair-cell development and regeneration in zebrafish, which may facilitate assays for drug discovery related to aural function preservation.

This case report details the challenging diagnostic journey of a 50-year-old woman with progressive supranuclear palsy, highlighting the disease's complex and variable clinical presentation.

This report documents the second known case of Castleman's disease in the lacrimal gland, diagnosed in an 84-year-old woman through histological examination after excising a left upper lid mass.

This study found that PEGylated LUT-Aspasomes significantly improved neuroprotective effects in stressed rats, enhancing spatial memory, reducing depressive-like behavior, and preserving hippocampal architecture better than free luteolin. Additionally, it increased brain delivery and stability, suggesting potential for treating stress-related neurobehavioral disorders.

Lack of small, fine hair on the front hairline is a key sign of frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This study utilized ultrasound biomicroscopy to evaluate the anterior chamber in angle closure glaucoma patients, revealing that the anterior chamber angle is wider on the downside than the upside and identifying important parameters for potential laser surgery.

This study examined frontotemporal craniotomy in bald male patients, finding that incisions along the superior temporal line, though not concealed in the hairline, resulted in excellent cosmetic outcomes, safety, and patient satisfaction without complaints of visible scars or complications.

This review describes techniques to manage intraoperative floppy iris syndrome linked to alpha-1 blocker use in cataract surgery, highlighting the need for patient disclosure of medication use but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that multicomponent microarray patches for SARS-CoV-2 vaccination produced stronger immune responses and fewer side effects in mice compared to traditional intramuscular injection.

This study introduced a novel, weakly supervised method for segmenting hair in Scanning Electron Microscope images using simple image-level annotations, achieving over 30% improvement in mean Hausdorff Distance compared to Unet and SAM, while enhancing interpretability and refinement.

This collection of reviews, edited by Ken Lukowiak and Janis Weeks, explores diverse sensory systems across species, including olfaction, echolocation, magnetoreception, and visual adaptations, without presenting new experimental results.

This review summarizes advancements in forensic DNA phenotyping for appearance, ancestry, and age prediction from crime scene samples, reporting no new research findings but highlighting areas needing further research and validation.
