research A multicentre placebo‐controlled clinical trial on the efficacy of oral ciclosporin A in the treatment of canine idiopathic sebaceous adenitis in comparison with conventional topical treatment
Oral ciclosporin A and topical treatments both reduce hair loss and scaling in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, but using both together is most effective.
research Clinical Case Notes. Tamoxifen optic neuropathy
A boy with chromosome 13q deletion syndrome developed eye cancer, a woman with breast cancer lost vision due to a rare side-effect of her treatment, a man's vision worsened after using a hair loss drug, and two rare disorders were discussed. Optical Coherence Tomography is useful for diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.
research Defining the identity of mouse embryonic dermal fibroblasts
Researchers identified specific genes that are important for mouse skin cell development and healing.
research An Update on Drug-Induced Pigmentation
Some drugs can cause skin and hair color changes, often reversible when the drug is stopped.
research Psychotrichology: psychosomatic aspects of hair diseases
Hair diseases can have psychological effects and should be treated with a combination of psychosomatic care, therapy, and medication.
research Clinical Case Notes. Intraorbital ophthalmic artery aneurysms
Eye exams are crucial for kids with 13q deletion syndrome, tamoxifen can cause vision loss, Propecia may lead to cataracts, Lipoid Proteinosis causes skin bumps, and OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Telogen Effluvium: Is There a Need for a New Classification
The paper suggests improving diagnosis and treatment of telogen effluvium but does not recommend a new classification system.

research Clinical Case Notes. Lipoid proteinosis: a rare disorder with pathognomonic lid lesions
A baby boy with 13q deletion syndrome had eye cancer, a woman's vision improved after stopping a breast cancer drug, a man developed cataracts from using Propecia, and a rare skin disorder called Lipoid Proteinosis was discussed. Also, a tool called OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Male fertility and skin diseases
Some skin diseases and their treatments can negatively affect male fertility.
research Clinical Case Notes. Propecia-associated bilateral cataract
Taking Propecia might lead to the development of cataracts.
research Exogenous Factors in Hair Disorders
Outside factors like grooming, chemicals, and the environment can damage hair and cause disorders.
research Recent advances in congenital ichthyoses
New genes linked to ichthyosis were found, but there's still no cure; treatment options are improving.
research Short anagen syndrome in an African American woman
A 38-year-old African American woman has a rare condition that prevents her from growing long hair.
research Clinical Case Notes. Castleman's disease of the lacrimal gland
The document discusses various eye conditions and their treatments, including a rare eye cancer in a baby, vision loss from a cancer drug, cataracts from a baldness treatment, a rare skin disorder, and a specific type of eye disease diagnosed with a special imaging technique.
research Animal models of alopecia
The best animal model for studying male-pattern baldness is the stumptailed macaque, not rats or mice.
research The Use of High-Density SNP Array to Map Homozygosity in Consanguineous Families to Efficiently Identify Candidate Genes: Application to Woodhouse-Sakati Syndrome
Using SNP array testing helped quickly find the gene causing Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in two related individuals.
research Clinical Case Notes. Malignant melanoma in eviscerated eyeball
Finasteride, often used for hair loss, can potentially cause cataracts.
research Clinical Case Notes. Retinoblastoma, microphthalmia and the chromosome 13q deletion syndrome
