October 2015 in “European Journal of Human Genetics” This study found that a genetic model using SNPs can predict early-onset male-pattern baldness with moderate accuracy, which may assist in decisions about interventions.
March 2022 in “Wound practice & research” This review synthesizes current evidence on alopecia areata, detailing its clinical features, pathogenesis, and treatment options, but does not present new clinical results.
