This review discusses recent advances in understanding gender differences in skin and their implications for dermatologic diseases, but it reports no new experimental results; ongoing research is necessary for translating these insights into clinical practice.

This study found that a genetic variant in the EDAR gene leads to typical East Asian hair characteristics by increasing signaling output, as shown in transgenic mice experiments.

This study reported that Chinese women with PCOS exhibited diverse lipid profiles based on different characteristics, which may help understand their increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

This study reports that the TrichoScan method effectively measures hair growth parameters and detected significant improvements in hair counts and thickness in men with androgenetic alopecia after finasteride treatment.

This review offers evidence-based recommendations for diagnosing and treating female pattern hair loss, emphasizing clinical assessment and starting treatment with minoxidil, while noting that measurement of certain hormones and vitamins is optional.

This study found that cyclosporin A stimulates growth in cultured murine hair epithelial cells and reduces protein kinase C expression, suggesting that these actions may contribute to its hair-growing effects.

This review discusses the expanded understanding of WNT10B's role in various tissues and diseases over the past decade, emphasizing its genetic correlations and potential therapeutic implications, but reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes existing studies on toxic agents that can cause alopecia, with thallium and colchicine having the most established links, while others like botulinum toxin A need further investigation.

This review identifies FDA-cleared home-use photobiomodulation devices for androgenetic alopecia treatment and highlights their excellent safety profile but notes the lack of long-term comparative studies.

This review found that antiseizure medications, particularly phenytoin and valproate, are associated with cosmetic side effects like gingival hyperplasia, hirsutism, acne, and hair loss.

This study developed an advanced HPLC-ESI-ion trap MS(n) method for the structural identification of cyclosporin A analogs CyA and CyC and reported the first MS(n)-aided identification of a new CyA analog.

In this study, PRP was found to show promise in treating melasma, offering consistent positive outcomes and satisfaction rates among patients, especially when combined with treatments like hydroquinone and tranexamic acid, though further research is needed to confirm long-term efficacy and safety.

This case report describes a rare instance where a young woman initially presented with macrophage activation syndrome as the first sign of systemic lupus erythematosus, and ultimately experienced multiorgan failure and death.

This study found that Centipeda minima and brevilin A significantly reduced oxidative stress and inflammation in human dermal fibroblasts, suggesting their potential to protect against skin aging and inflammation.

This retrospective case series reported that pediatric patients with alopecia totalis and subtotalis experienced significant hair regrowth after treatment with the JAK inhibitor upadacitinib, with mild acne as the most common side effect; however, larger studies are needed to establish its efficacy and safety conclusively.

This study reports a case of alopecia areata in a 14-year-old male using isotretinoin for acne, illustrating an unexpected side effect not typically linked to the drug, highlighting the importance of monitoring and addressing hair loss risks during treatment.

In this case report, a 76-year-old male had an eyelid lesion that mimicked squamous cell carcinoma but was diagnosed as benign inverted follicular keratosis after surgical excision, underscoring the importance of distinguishing between the two for proper management.

In this laboratory study, Cucumis melo var. makuwa leaf extract significantly reduced DHT-induced apoptosis in human dermal papilla cells by modulating androgen receptor activity and gene expression, suggesting potential as a therapy for androgenetic alopecia.

This paper discusses four rare causes of hyperandrogenism in women, emphasizing the importance of detailed biochemical testing and invasive diagnostic tools when imaging fails to identify ovarian tumors.

This study documented successful use of Brevilin-A, a topical treatment, in pediatric patients with alopecia areata, indicating it as a potentially safe and effective option for managing mild-moderate cases and resistant forms of the disease.

This review focuses on the pharmacological properties, indications, contraindications, and safety profile of bicalutamide, a non-steroidal androgen receptor antagonist, in dermatological research, particularly its off-label use for improving female pattern hair loss as measured by Sinclair grading.

This review discusses the non-cosmetic uses of botulinum neurotoxin A, including its effectiveness for idiopathic hyperhidrosis and potential use for androgenic alopecia, and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for more clinical trials.

This report details a case of severe alopecia areata developing one month after COVID-19 infection in a 20-year-old woman, suggesting a possible connection between COVID-19 and the condition's onset.

This case report describes a misdiagnosed case of HAIR-AN syndrome with an unfortunate outcome, highlighting the challenges in distinguishing it from other hyperandrogenic conditions.

This study found that individuals with hair loss complaints had slightly lower zinc levels compared to controls, but the difference was clinically insignificant, suggesting zinc testing is not essential for diagnosing hair loss.

This article reviews various medical treatments for hidradenitis suppurativa based on the author's experience with over 350 patients, but it reports no new clinical findings.
