This study found that compliance rates for oral contraceptives are low and similar to those for other medical treatments, indicating a need for alternatives that require less daily adherence.

The study found that bioengineered hair follicles work when using cells from the same species but have issues when combining human and mouse cells.

In this study, mice exposed to prolonged space conditions demonstrated skin atrophy, altered hair follicle cycles, and significant changes in the gene expression associated with skin muscle health.

This study found that trichohyalin, a protein previously thought to be restricted to hair and tongue, is also present in isolated cells within the granular layer and stratum corneum of normal human epidermis.

This article reviews various strategies, primarily developed by the Turin University Pharmaceutical Technology group, for increasing entrapment efficiency of hydrophilic molecules in nanoparticulate systems and reports no clinical results.

In this study, subdermal platelet-rich plasma injections significantly increased hair count and shaft caliber in individuals with androgenetic alopecia, with monthly treatments potentially offering greater benefits.

This study found that loose anagen hair syndrome is a common form of alopecia in young girls, typically presenting with thin, sparse hair and usually confirmed by a hair-pull test.

Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.

This article reviews the use of cross-sex hormonal therapy in transmen and reports that it is reasonably safe, suggesting monitoring should be frequent initially but can be less frequent over time.

This study found that Turner’s syndrome is associated with significant bone mass decrease due to estrogen deficiency, which can be improved with estrogen therapy, while bone issues in Klinefelter’s syndrome may benefit from early androgen therapy and possibly bisphosphonates.

This study observed that Ptprq mutant mice exhibit significant abnormalities in hair bundle structure and vestibular dysfunction, suggesting similar issues may contribute to hearing loss and vestibular problems in humans with PTPRQ mutations.

This study observed that a longer anterior clitoral anogenital distance (AGDAC) is associated with polycystic ovary syndrome in adult Mediterranean women.

This review discusses the skin side effects associated with targeted cancer therapies and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the need for empirical management based on expert opinion.

This review discusses the progress in tooth regeneration research and highlights the potential of spatial-temporal release of developmental factors, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This research suggests that the barley protein RACB supports cell polarity functions rather than interfering with immunity, as it aids nucleus positioning during fungal attack rather than affecting early immune responses.

This study found that isotretinoin is a safe and well-tolerated acne treatment, with common adverse effects like cheilitis manageable through symptomatic medication and no significant changes in lipid or liver enzyme levels.

This review discusses the potential of JAK inhibitors as a promising treatment strategy for alopecia areata, highlighting their mechanism and recent FDA approval based on clinical trial efficacy.

This review focuses on neuroactive steroids' influence on GABA-ergic signaling and discusses challenges in developing them for various therapeutic uses, citing recent excitement from FDA approval of allopregnanolone for postpartum depression but reporting no new results.

This article explains the structure and multifunctional roles of the human skin, including its protective, regulatory, and sensory functions, but does not report new research findings.

This review describes an improved scalp reduction technique that removes two to three times more bald skin than previous methods, utilizing wide undermining, serial relaxing incisions, and adrenocorticosteroids.

In this case series, four adults developed severe, disabling multisymptom illness potentially linked to fluoroquinolone use, which persisted and progressed even after discontinuation of the drug.

This study found that Schistosoma mansoni cercariae stimulate epidermal keratinocytes in mice, initiating pro-inflammatory responses and barrier repair mechanisms akin to those in wound healing.

This study observed that scalp melanomas in older men often grow rapidly, appear without pigment, and have more aggressive features compared to other head and neck melanomas.

This study found diverse clinical presentations of lichen planopilaris, with classic lichen planopilaris being the most common, highlighting the importance of recognizing this variability for accurate diagnosis.

This study found that using a 900-MHz GSM mobile phone for 15 or 30 minutes significantly increased single-strand DNA breaks in human hair root cells near the phone.

In this study, photodynamic therapy significantly reduced inflammatory acne lesions and sebum secretion, possibly by inducing apoptosis in sebaceous glands and down-regulating TLR-2 and TLR-4 expression.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata had significantly lower serum ferritin levels compared to women without hair loss.

This article examines the role and composition of integral hair lipids in forming a protective barrier similar to the skin's epidermal lipid layer and reports no new findings about their effects.

This case series reports telogen effluvium in three patients following severe Sars-Cov-2 infection and suggests a potential association that merits further investigation.

This review discusses recent advances in the role of dermal papilla cells and adipocyte lineage cells in hair regeneration, but it reports no new clinical results.
