Paediatric Tinea Capitis in New Zealand: A Case Series
Australasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We reviewed 41 children referred to a New Zealand regional dermatology service between 2016 and 2026 with scalp alopecia suspected to be tinea capitis. Microsporum canis accounted for 17 of the 24 dermatophytes isolated (71%), a distribution consistent with New Zealand series over the past seven decades and unlike the shift towards ...

Hair Degradation Patterns in Aquatic and Soil Environments
Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hair is a biological material that can provide information in archaeology and forensics. Previous studies have mainly examined changes occurring post‐mortem. In this study, we focused on hair pulled out ante‐mortem. The aim of the study was to identify patterns in the degradation of hair in water and soil.

AI‐Assisted Fungal Detection in Dermatopathology: A Study on Accuracy, Efficiency, and Usability
JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.Summary Background and Objectives AI‐based image analysis is increasingly applied in pathology. Excluding fungal elements in PAS‐stained skin sections is labor‐intensive and well suited for AI assistance. While fungal detection in nails has been studied, skin‐biopsy applications and real‐world benefit remain limited.
