In this study, ketoconazole treatment successfully cured a dog with erythematous epilation caused by Chaetomium globosum, with new hair growth observed 9 weeks later.

In rats with cyclophosphamide-induced hair loss, this study found that applying cetirizine HCl-loaded emulgel with microneedling stimulated hair growth, suggesting a potentially safer alternative to minoxidil for treating chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

In this retrospective case series, therapeutic responses to immunomodulatory and incretin-based therapies for Dercum's disease showed considerable individual variation, suggesting these treatments might be exploratory options when surgery isn't feasible, though further controlled studies are needed for definitive conclusions.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman who experienced facial erythema, acne, and hirsutism due to excess androgen and estrogen levels.

This review found little evidence supporting zinc as a first-line treatment for dermatological conditions, except in cases of systemic zinc deficiency, and suggests further research is needed.

Follicular dystrophy in immunocompromised patients may be linked to medication or viral factors and can improve with treatment changes.

Acyclovir can prevent rejection of skin grafts in herpes-related lip leucoderma.

This study found that the antiviral drug daclatasvir significantly improved fibrosis and quality of life in a mouse model of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, suggesting potential for treating this and other fibrotic diseases.

This study found that actively targeted AN2728-loaded nanocarriers reduced inflammation and improved skin condition in a mouse model of psoriasiform inflammation compared to free drug and non-targeted nanoparticles.

This study found that dexamethasone effectively suppressed DHEAS levels in women with elevated levels using much lower doses than previously thought, without significant adverse effects.

In this case report, the authors found that pigmented demodicosis, caused by Demodex mites, led to facial hyperpigmentation in a 16-year-old male and showed significant improvement with oral isotretinoin and topical ivermectin treatment.

This report discusses two cases where patients continued EGFR inhibitor therapy while receiving topical treatments for SDRIFE, highlighting the importance of dermatologists in managing such cutaneous adverse events without stopping cancer treatment.

In this case study, a 12-year-old boy with alopecia totalis experienced hair regrowth on the side of his scalp treated with a combination of systemic steroids and dithranol, suggesting a potential synergistic effect that may help manage severe alopecia areata with minimal side effects.

This study found that desmocollin 1 is crucial for strong adhesion and barrier maintenance in the mouse epidermis, with its absence leading to skin and hair issues resembling chronic dermatitis.

This study found that a spontaneous deletion in the Dsg3 gene of mice leads to hypomorphic desmoglein 3 expression, resulting in severe immunodeficiency, cyclic hair loss, and wasting disease, without causing the blistering typical of pemphigus vulgaris.

In this survey of dermatologists, pimozide was most commonly identified as the preferred first-line antipsychotic for treating delusions of parasitosis, followed by risperidone.

This study found that long-term use of difluprednate ophthalmic emulsion in dogs can lead to HPA axis suppression and potentially cause iatrogenic hyperadrenocorticism, with localized alopecia suspected due to dermal absorption.

In this study, hair anomalies associated with acrodermatitis enteropathica in a young girl improved significantly after two years of zinc therapy.

This review discusses the use of contact sensitizers in topical immunotherapy for conditions like alopecia areata and viral warts, focusing on treatment methods, efficacy, and potential adverse effects, and reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews rosacea and rosacea-like demodicidosis, discussing historical findings, but provides no new clinical results; the authors highlight the role of Demodex in related skin conditions.

In this study, researchers developed a new SFL-3D system to produce extracellular vesicles from rejuvenated dermal papilla cell spheroids, which demonstrated significant antifibrotic effects in reducing hypertrophic scarring, highlighting their potential for precision-targeted scar management.

This study reports that a single intradermal injection of autologous adipose-derived stem cells improved visible aging signs such as wrinkles and pore size on facial skin for over a year in eight patients, with in vitro data suggesting muscle involvement in the rejuvenation process.

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

PDE inhibitors, especially PDE4 inhibitors like apremilast, are effective for certain inflammatory skin conditions but have side effects and can be costly.

This study found that adherence to topical hydrocortisone in adults with atopic dermatitis was inconsistent and not significantly different across different medication vehicles, though disease severity improved markedly within 2 weeks.

Loss of Dsc3 function in the epidermis impaired cell adhesion, leading to blistering and hair loss, which suggests a potential cause of PV-like skin diseases according to this study.

This study found that adding cyclophosphamide to glucocorticoid treatment for pemphigus patients led to earlier remission, with 89.5% achieving remission within 4 months compared to 73.9% with glucocorticoids alone, suggesting significant steroid-sparing effects and improved clinical outcomes.
