This study reported that oral simvastatin/ezetimibe therapy was ineffective for treating alopecia areata, with 67% of participants experiencing no hair regrowth. Additionally, 24% of patients experienced adverse effects, including myalgia, highlighting the need to weigh potential risks against questionable benefits.

This article discusses the benefits of liposomes in cosmetic formulations, including enhanced hydration and protection for dry skin, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study developed a new method using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to measure multiple steroid hormones in hair, requiring significantly fewer strands than previous methods, with high accuracy and precision.

This study highlights that while there are no FDA- or ANVISA-approved treatments for children with alopecia areata, JAK inhibitors are emerging as a promising therapeutic option for this population.

Validated method reliably measures finasteride in tablets using liquid chromatography.

This case report describes a 75-year-old woman with pustular psoriasis who developed Beau's lines on her nails, coinciding with episodes of telogen effluvium.

Light therapy can effectively treat vitiligo and hair loss caused by a specific medication.

This study developed an efficient LC-MS bioanalytical method to simultaneously quantify minoxidil sulphate and latanoprost in skin layers, supporting the formulation of topical treatments for androgenic alopecia.

This study found that among patients with twenty-nail dystrophy, those treated with oral cyclosporine in combination with a dietary supplement showed significantly better improvement in nail condition and quality of life than those treated with the supplement alone.

This study developed two sensitive chromatographic methods for determining finasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride in pharmaceutical forms, validated against International Conference on Harmonisation guidelines.

This study presents a new method using UPLC-ESI-MS/MS for analyzing the constituents of a medicinal herbal complex extract, which includes herbs traditionally used to prevent hair loss and promote hair growth; no clinical results were reported.

Platelet-rich plasma may help with wound healing, hair growth, and skin rejuvenation, but more research is needed to prove its effectiveness.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, particularly in women of African descent, and explains its progression and symptoms but provides no new clinical findings.

This case report describes successful treatment of alopecia universalis associated with severe hyperthyroidism using azathioprine and hydroxychloroquine after poor response to oral steroid therapy.

Hydroxychloroquine effectively treated twenty-nail dystrophy in a patient with alopecia areata.

This study proposed a simple, rapid permanganometric method for determining minoxidil concentrations in pharmaceutical samples, offering comparable accuracy to chromatographic methods with recovery rates of 94.5 to 95.2%.

This study found that methyl nonanoate and methyl caprate significantly enhanced the skin penetration of minoxidil compared to solutions with other common enhancers like Azone, DMSO, or DEET.

This study presents two cases where intralesional methotrexate combined with ablative fractional CO2 laser treatment resulted in excellent outcomes for refractory alopecia areata.

This study reported remarkable improvement in three patients with treatment-resistant alopecia areata after receiving autologous platelet-rich plasma injections, suggesting the potential for this approach and a need for further randomized, placebo-controlled trials.

This study developed and validated a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method for accurately identifying and quantifying tamsulosin and finasteride in pharmaceutical forms, showing its effectiveness for quality control.

This review discusses skin appendages like hair and nails as indicators of local and systemic pathologies, emphasizing conditions such as inflammatory diseases and infections, but reports no new clinical findings.
