This study found that a history of immunization and throat carriage of bacterial pathogens, including Streptococcus pyogenes, were associated with increased risk of developing alopecia areata.
research Opportunistic pathogenic fungal co-infections are prevalent in critically ill COVID-19 patients: Are they risk factors for disease severity?
This review highlights that fungal co-infections, notably with Aspergillus and Candida, are common in hospitalized COVID-19 patients, but their impact on disease outcomes remains unclear, indicating a need for further research.
research Role of testosterone in SARS-CoV-2 infection: A key pathogenic factor and a biomarker for severe pneumonia
This study found that lower testosterone levels in male COVID-19 patients were associated with greater disease severity and longer hospital stays.
research In vivo and in vitro exposure to free fatty acids induce increased androgen production in animal models: a potential pathogenic factor of the polycystic ovary syndrome
This study found that in female dogs, exposure to free fatty acids increased androgen production, suggesting a potential link to factors characteristic of polycystic ovary syndrome.

4 / 1000+ resultscommunity Efficacy and Tolerability of N-Acetyl-Cysteine for Treatment of The Early-onset Androgenetic Alopecia in Men
N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) was found to improve hair parameters in men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia, showing increased terminal hair count and decreased vellus hair count, with good tolerability. NAC, used alone or with minoxidil, may help due to its antioxidant properties, though its effectiveness can vary among individuals.
community "Hair Follicle Stem Cells are quiescent 99% of the time and permanently reside in the hair follicle"
Hair follicles are mostly dormant but can be reactivated with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and microneedling. A new drug, PP405, shows promise for hair regrowth but may not be available until 2027-2028.
community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community When you start balding you notice how unnatural this phenomenon is
Hair loss is a common issue, with treatments like finasteride and minoxidil used but not as permanent cures. Frustration exists over societal perceptions and the lack of a definitive solution.
