This study found that social hair plucking in captive rhesus macaques is linked to alopecia and possibly relates to stress in females.

This study reports that Abelson Interactor 1 (ABI1) regulates androgen receptor transcription in prostate cancer, identifying it as a potential target for new therapies addressing treatment resistance.

This study found that young males with stage III or higher androgenetic alopecia had higher insulin resistance and cardiovascular-related features, suggesting the need for metabolic assessment in this population.

Women with hyperandrogenism, especially those with PCOS, are more likely to have psychiatric disorders.

This study reports that severe androgenic alopecia prevalence in young Caucasian men increases with age, varies by region, and that body mass index may be a risk factor.

This letter to the editor discusses patient perspectives on androgenetic alopecia treatment at a tertiary dermatology center in Singapore, though results or specific findings are not reported in the abstract.

This study found that hair cortisol levels in black-tailed prairie dogs, influenced by factors like predation risk and lactation, were associated with reproductive success, supporting the Cort-Adaptation hypothesis.

This study noted that among hospitalized COVID-19 patients, androgenetic alopecia was prevalent, and severe cases were associated with adverse outcomes such as respiratory failure, highlighting a possible link with androgen sensitivity.

This study found that male patients with androgenetic alopecia had significantly higher aldosterone levels and blood pressure compared to controls, suggesting a possible link between AGA and hypertension.
