This study found that N-acetyl-cysteine alone or combined with minoxidil improved hair parameters in men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia, with tolerable side effects.

This study suggests the existence of a new subtype of alopecia, called 'acute diffuse and total alopecia of the female scalp (ADTAFS)', characterized by acute, diffuse hair loss primarily in women and a rapid recovery.

This study found that intralesional methotrexate and triamcinolone acetonide have similar efficacy for localized alopecia areata in adults, but differ in safety profiles, with methotrexate associated with hyperpigmentation and triamcinolone with atrophy.

This study found that CD44 and CD49d together enhance signaling pathways in lymphocytes in mice with alopecia areata, influencing their activation and function.

This case report highlights a patient with Ayme-Gripp syndrome, revealing an association between the syndrome and hypothyroidism, and underscores the importance of considering rare genetic conditions in differential diagnoses of endocrinopathies.

This study demonstrated that litifilimab significantly reduced disease activity in cutaneous lupus erythematosus by Week 16, with improvements most notable in sunlight-exposed skin areas.

This study highlights alopecia areata incognita as a unique form of alopecia areata that shares features with telogen effluvium and may relate to androgenetic alopecia, noting its sudden onset and favorable response to topical steroids.

This study suggests that the C-terminal of AHF is crucial for its binding to keratin bundles and modulating the keratin meshwork in hair follicles.

In this study, coudability hairs were identified as a useful marker for assessing disease activity in patients with alopecia areata and may serve as an alternative to the hair-pull test.

This review outlines chlormadinone acetate's contraceptive and non-contraceptive applications but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing its potential in treating dysmenorrhea and androgen-related conditions.

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography effectively visualized microscopic alterations in alopecia areata, suggesting its potential use in diagnosis and monitoring.

This article discusses features, genetics, and diagnostic challenges of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women but reports no new clinical results.

This review outlines the existing understanding of alopecia areata, detailing its autoimmune nature, clinical presentation, histology, and management strategies, with corticosteroids highlighted as the most popular treatment option.

This study observed that patients with alopecia areata often have a T-cell receptor repertoire in skin lesions that suggests a specific antigen-driven immune response may be important in the disease's pathogenesis.

This phase 1 study reported that after administering supratherapeutic doses of cortexolone 17α‐propionate, a topical antiandrogen intended for hair loss treatment, there was no effect on the QTc interval, indicating no measurable cardiac safety concerns in the concentration range tested.

In this study, clobetasol propionate foam demonstrated effectiveness and good patient compliance as a safe topical treatment for moderate to severe alopecia areata, with significant hair regrowth compared to placebo.

This study found that tofacitinib was an effective and better-tolerated treatment for moderate-to-severe AA compared to SCs, though its efficacy decreased in patients with disease episodes longer than two years.

A new genetic mutation in the CAST gene may link PLACK syndrome to alopecia areata.

In this study, a case of lichen amyloidosis on the scalp significantly improved with a 2-month topical treatment using clobetasol propionate/all-trans retinoic acid ointment.

This study reports that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide was effective and well-tolerated for treating extensive alopecia areata in patients who often showed specific initial hair characteristics.

In this study, women with androgenetic alopecia underwent stem cell treatment, which led to significant improvements in sexual arousal and satisfaction, psychological health, and environmental quality of life, but not in physical health or social relationships after six months.

This case report details a 17-year-old male with Alopecic and Aseptic Nodules of the Scalp successfully treated with doxycycline and intralesional corticosteroids, highlighting the importance of thorough evaluation for accurate diagnosis.

This study investigated a unique frontal fibrosing alopecia-like presentation of alopecia areata, finding that patients experienced an insidious, chronic course with limited scalp hair regrowth, and showed a lower response to systemic corticosteroids compared to patchy alopecia areata.

This abstract provides a glossary of medical terms related to skin, joints, and other conditions, without reporting new research findings.

In this study, 1'-S-1'-acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) from Alpinia galanga showed potential in suppressing testosterone-induced hair loss by inhibiting Nox isozymes in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia.

This study aimed to describe the distribution of eyebrow and eyelash hair loss in patients with varying severities of scalp hair loss from alopecia areata but does not report results.

This paper reviews the challenges of treating alopecia areata affecting eyelashes and discusses the risks associated with traditional therapies; it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a strong positive correlation was found between clinician-reported and patient-reported measures for assessing eyebrow and eyelash hair loss in patients with severe alopecia areata, indicating high agreement during treatment with baricitinib over 52 weeks.

This preliminary study of Alopecia Areata identified limited expression of certain metabolic transporters and enzymes in hair follicle immune cells, providing early insight into their unique energy needs.
