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 highlights the public health significance of androgenic-anabolic steroid use disorder, emphasizing health risks, societal effects, and the need for routine AAS analyses in forensic autopsies, especially in athlete deaths.

This study reports on a new semantic annotation approach used to identify substances in MEDLINE abstracts responsible for adverse drug reactions, with promising performance shown by a prototype system.

This article discusses the use of atomic force microscopy for examining human hair surfaces in dermatology, cosmetics, and forensic science, but presents no new research findings.

This study found that psychiatric adverse drug reactions were more frequently reported with finasteride than with dutasteride, but it remains unclear if there is a causal relationship.

This article reviews the general, pathophysiological, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects of alopecia frontal fibrosante, highlighting its irreversible nature and the importance of early diagnosis, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the Arabidopsis thaliana protein Formin 2 localizes to plasmodesmata and is crucial for regulating their permeability by anchoring actin filaments, which affects virus susceptibility.

This case report describes an 8-year-old girl with ADHD who experienced reversible eyebrow alopecia after initiating atomoxetine treatment, with no further occurrences when the medication was reintroduced.

This case report highlights a rare instance of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in a patient on afatinib, underlining the importance of early recognition and management of this adverse effect.

In this study, analysis of FDA data revealed a substantial risk of dermatologic adverse events with aromatase inhibitors, especially anastrozole and exemestane, highlighting the importance of dermatologic monitoring during such therapies.

In this study, finasteride altered the expression of nine proteins in the rat nucleus accumbens, suggesting new therapeutic targets and mechanisms for its effects on neuropsychiatric conditions.

Finasteride may help reduce prostate cancer risk.

In this meta-analysis, researchers found that oral dutasteride may stabilize or improve frontal fibrosing alopecia in patients, but results varied widely, and further controlled studies are needed to confirm its effectiveness as a treatment option.

This study suggests that weekly oral finasteride may be a promising alternative to isotretinoin for treating nodulocystic acne, showing substantial improvements with lower incidence of sexual dysfunction.

Abatacept may help some people with alopecia areata regrow hair.

This study found that alefacept showed no significant improvement in treating severe alopecia areata compared to placebo over a 24-week period.

This study successfully used ATR FT-IR spectroscopy to uniquely identify or differentiate human hairs by detecting specific spectral features associated with individual hair characteristics and cosmetic residues on hair surfaces.

This study suggests that human hair follicles may serve as a model for molecular analysis of ABCA4 gene splice-site variants, facilitating research into the pathogenicity of ABCA4 retinopathies.

This study indicates that finasteride use may lower bladder cancer incidence, while androgen suppression therapy improves recurrence-free survival but not other survival outcomes in bladder cancer patients.

This article discusses the pseudo 'fringe sign' in frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting that it is not solely related to traction, and it reports no new clinical results.

This glossary abstract does not present new research findings but provides definitions of medical and anatomical terms relevant to various procedures and conditions.
