LSD1 is crucial for regenerating hair cells in zebrafish.

This study suggests that edelweiss extract may promote hair growth and reduce shedding in ex vivo experiments by affecting hair follicle anagen phase duration and keratinocyte proliferation.

Treat limited stage small cell lung cancer with chemotherapy and radiation, and consider preventive brain radiation for better survival chances.

This study explores the clinical significance of the intravesical prostatic protrusion/prostate volume ratio in diagnosing bladder outlet obstruction but reports no new results.

This case study reports a new LAMB3 mutation linked to junctional epidermolysis bullosa with severe urinary tract stenosis, outlining treatment challenges and expanding knowledge of EB-related urological complications.

In this case report, a young male developed bilateral pleural effusion and persistent fever after starting divalproex sodium for bipolar disorder, which improved upon discontinuation of the drug, suggesting a possible link between divalproex sodium and pleural effusion.

Endré Mester is highly regarded as the 'Godfather' of phototherapy.

In this study, sustained-release sodium valproate showed high efficacy in achieving seizure remission for adults with focal and generalized epilepsy over one year, but side effects like weight gain and tremor were more frequent among heterozygous carriers of certain gene variants.

In this study, secondary syphilis presented diverse clinical manifestations, with syphilitic alopecia occurring only in HIV-positive patients, underscoring the importance of considering syphilis in differential diagnoses for vulnerable populations.

In this study, researchers identified two de novo germline missense mutations in the hair keratins hHb1 and hHb6 in patients with monilethrix whose parents were not clinically affected.

This study found that the Florida worm lizard has lost certain genes associated with claw development, which are present in other lizard species with claws, suggesting a link between the evolution of their limbless body and the loss of claw-related genes.

In this study, researchers identified loss of function variants in the HR gene as likely causes of the distinct roaning hair coat seen in lykoi cats.

PLAU and SerpinB2 affect cell death differently in various forms of leprosy and could be targets for new treatments.

This article highlights that rivaroxaban, commonly associated with bleeding risks, may also cause rare non-bleeding adverse effects like liver injury and hypersensitivity.

This study found that using a pH-sensitive layered double hydroxide nanocarrier to deliver etoposide significantly reduced liver toxicity and enhanced the drug’s effectiveness in targeting and suppressing non-small cell lung cancer.

In this case study, donor lymphocyte infusions effectively eradicated measurable residual disease in a patient with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia after hematopoietic cell transplantation, while side effects included the development of vitiligo and alopecia areata, likely due to chronic graft-versus-host disease.

Low level laser therapy may help with hair loss.

Mitoxantrone is effective for treating acute leukemia, especially in older patients, with a lower risk of heart damage.

This study observed that smallholder cattle farmers in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia using leucaena as feed managed more cattle and focused more on fattening rather than breeding, but leucaena toxicity led to illnesses such as hair loss and, in a few cases, reproductive issues.

This review explores the role of lymphatic vessels in skin regeneration and hair follicle growth, emphasizing their interactions with hair follicle stem cells and potential implications for regenerative therapies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrates that LES-hair can detect differential protein expression in specific regions of plucked hair follicles, suggesting its potential for research and clinical applications like monitoring treatment effects in alopecia and cancer therapies.

This article describes the first reported case of isolated linear discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp, suggesting it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of linear scarring alopecia.

This case report documents a young woman who experienced a visual field defect similar to those linked to vigabatrin use, despite treatment only with valproic acid and carbamazepine, suggestive of a possible metabolic vulnerability in certain patients with specific genetic backgrounds.

This study reported discovering a novel missense variant in a case of autosomal recessive woolly hair in a 31-year-old Chinese woman, which significantly reduced secretion of the encoded protein, likely leading to disease by impairing its hydrolytic function.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.

This study identified that in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, the c.736T > A LIPH mutation is associated with a mild phenotype, while the c.742C > A mutation may lead to severe baldness.

This article reviews the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment options for discoid lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical results.

Combining low-level laser therapy with topical corticosteroids effectively improved Lichen Planopilaris symptoms.

This study highlights that early detection and tailored treatment based on kidney biopsy classification are crucial in managing lupus nephritis to prevent progression to end-stage kidney disease, with a focus on saving nephron cells.
