In this case series, low-dose oral metformin was associated with improvements in symptoms and gene expression changes in Black female patients with treatment-resistant central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, suggesting a potential therapeutic role for metformin in managing this condition.

This study investigated the potential mechanisms of Curcuma aeruginosa in treating androgenetic alopecia and identified 66 bioactive compounds interacting with proteins involved in the disorder, suggesting its involvement in hormone response and specific signaling pathways.

This study found that specific PITX2 gene variants are significantly associated with higher risk of androgenetic alopecia in males, highlighting important genetic and environmental interactions influencing its development.

This review discusses the potential of exosomes as cell-free treatments for skin aging and various dermatological diseases, highlighting their role in preventing scarring and promoting wound healing, while acknowledging the need for further research and quality control methodologies.

In this study, researchers found that differences in skin condition distribution are the main source of errors when AI algorithms classify dermatological conditions from new, previously unseen sources, and proposed steps to improve their generalizability based on available information.

This study found that genetic predictions of male pattern baldness derived from European data do not accurately predict baldness in African populations, highlighting significant continental differences in genetic architecture and evolutionary history.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia is a scarring hair loss condition mainly affecting postmenopausal women, with unclear causes.

In this case report, a 55-year-old postmenopausal woman was diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis as the cause of her hyperandrogenism after detailed hormonal and imaging investigations, which was successfully treated with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, leading to symptom improvement and normalized testosterone levels.

This case report describes retinal occlusion and medial canthal swelling in a 64-year-old female following the injection of acellular porcine urinary bladder matrix for hair restoration, a previously unreported side effect.

This letter discusses the emergence of the dermatology hospitalist model and reports no new clinical outcomes; single institution studies suggest these services may enhance diagnostic accuracy and decrease readmissions.

This case report describes a 35-year-old woman with PCOS who achieved a healthy pregnancy and symptom relief through a four-month Ayurvedic treatment regimen, emphasizing its potential in treating severe cases.

This letter addresses feedback on a study about the effects of platelet-rich plasma on female androgenetic alopecia, particularly discussing the magnification choices for measuring hair density and caliber.

This study found that self-supervised pretraining significantly improves accuracy in medical image classifiers for dermatology and chest X-ray tasks, outperforming supervised baselines and showing robustness to distribution shifts with limited labeled data.

In this study, three patients with Type-1 autoimmune hepatitis experienced normalized liver enzymes and remission after six months of oral prednisolone treatment, while three others refused treatment.
