research Trichorrhexis Nodosa After Hair Transplantation: Dermoscopic, Pathologic and Electron Microscopy Analyses
Hair transplant complications were likely due to deep graft placement and rough handling.
research Trichorrhexis nodosa. Clinical and investigative studies
Trichorrhexis nodosa is mainly caused by hair trauma, not a metabolic defect.
research Regulatory pathways implicated in male androgenetic alopecia pathogenesis
Genes controlling hair growth and immune response are disrupted in male pattern baldness.
research Calcified Epidermal Cyst on the Neck
Calcified epidermal cysts are rare, hard skin nodules that are best treated with surgical removal.
research The use of biodegradable microneedle patches to increase penetration of topical steroid for prurigo nodularis.
Biodegradable microneedle patches help topical steroids work better for prurigo nodularis.
research Epidermal Nevi
Epidermal nevi are skin cell clusters linked to various syndromes.
research Kinetic topographical heterogeneity in follicular thyroid neoplasms and growth patterns
Different growth patterns in thyroid tumors are influenced by where cell growth and death occur.
research 058 Subset analysis of NKG2D+ cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells
The study suggests that a specific type of immune cell, memory-like NK cells, may increase during active hair loss in Alopecia areata.
research Porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus: A noteworthy presentation
PEODDN is a rare skin disorder with limited treatment options, best treated with laser therapy.
research Trichorrhexis Nodosa
Trichorrhexis nodosa is mainly caused by hair trauma and improves with gentler hair care.
research Comparative gene expression analysis of nestin-expressing hair follicle-derived cells
Nestin-expressing hair follicle cells may be useful for nerve repair and regeneration.
research Nevus comedonicus with lesional growth of terminal hair: An unusual case
Nevus comedonicus can sometimes grow terminal hair, challenging previous beliefs.
research A Clinical Review of Trichorrhexis Nodosa
Trichorrhexis nodosa is common hair breakage, often due to styling, and new treatments are being explored.
research From signal to form: Nod factor as a morhogenetic signal molecule to induce symbiotic responses in legume root hairs
Nod factor can trigger changes in legume root hairs with just one molecule.
research Infiltrative Erythemas and Nodules on a Unilateral Cheek Following Inappropriate Use of a Topical Steroid
Improper steroid use can cause skin issues like rosacea, which may improve after stopping the steroid and using benzoyl peroxide.
research Panfolliculoma: report of two cases

research Acquired Localized Trichorrhexis Nodosa Secondary to Cultural Practices
Vigorous rubbing of herbal powder on the scalp caused hair damage and loss.
research Nevus comedonicus
Nevus comedonicus is a rare skin condition with grouped open pores, sometimes linked to other body issues.
research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research Epigenetic control of skin and hair regeneration after wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research Alopecia areata but not androgenetic alopecia is characterized by a restricted and oligoclonal T-cell receptor-repertoire among infiltrating lymphocytes
Alopecia areata involves specific T-cells, unlike androgenetic alopecia.
research Could scalp pain be a type of unclassified headache?
Scalp pain should be classified as a type of headache.
