Genetic testing for hairless gene mutations is crucial to correctly diagnose and treat atrichia with papular lesions.

This case report describes a misdiagnosed case of HAIR-AN syndrome with an unfortunate outcome, highlighting the challenges in distinguishing it from other hyperandrogenic conditions.

In this case study, alopecia was observed as a possible side effect in a patient taking oral acyclovir for herpetic keratouveitis, which resolved after discontinuing the medication.

This article provides diagnosis and treatment guidelines for hyperandrogenic disorders in women but reports no new clinical results; it offers a summary of accepted scientific information and suggestions for clinical practice.

In this study, most surveyed physicians were aware of the meningioma risk linked to cyproterone acetate monotherapy, but many did not recall receiving updated safety communications.

This study found that both cyproterone acetate alone and combined with ethinyl oestradiol reduced androgen levels and slightly increased SHBG binding in women with hirsutism, but showed no difference in hair regrowth rate between the treatments.

This article summarizes a meeting of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery's Board of Directors to discuss future plans, but does not report new experimental results.

This review discusses factors affecting fertility in both men and women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia and emphasizes individualized preconception management but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed some differences in clinical outcomes when comparing CPA with spironolactone, flutamide, and finasteride, but no differences with other therapies, possibly due to small study size and non-standardized assessments; adverse effects could not be fully compared across treatments.

This article reviews acromegaloid facial appearance syndrome and presents a case in a 57-year-old woman, emphasizing the need for more cases to understand its clinical features and inheritance patterns.

Acitretin significantly reduced inflammatory attacks in a woman with Naevus Comedonicus Syndrome but caused side effects.

This study found that treatment with cyproterone acetate was generally successful for women with virilizing features, showing improved results in younger women and those with adrenal hirsutism, despite some side effects.

This abstract discusses a collaboration between the Asian Association of Hair Restoration Surgeons and another group, but it reports no new research findings.

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.

In this study, the researchers observed that antiandrogen treatment with Cyproterone acetate led to atrophy of pilo-sebaceous units and may activate Langerhans cells, contributing to local inflammation.

In this case study, a diagnosis of HAIR-AN syndrome, a rare form of polycystic ovarian syndrome, was made in a 17-year-old female with hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and acanthosis nigricans, but genetic screening revealed no significant mutations linked to her symptoms.

This study found that scarring alopecia is common in autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis patients and significantly correlates with the disease's severity, highlighting the need for thorough hair evaluations in clinical management.

This study reported that the anti-γc antibody hC2 restored hair follicle homeostasis and suppressed hair loss in an AA-like mouse model by inhibiting autoreactive T-cell activity, suggesting that hC2 may offer a safer and more effective treatment for alopecia areata compared to current Jak inhibitors.

This article discusses the challenges in diagnosing non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia and emphasizes personalized treatment approaches, reporting no new clinical results.

Allergic contact dermatitis may promote hair growth by activating hair follicle stem cells.

New ABCA12 gene mutations were linked to a skin condition with scaling and hair loss, and a treatment helped with hair loss in a related case.

This study identified a compound heterozygous mutation in a hairless rhesus macaque, which was associated with skin abnormalities similar to those in hairless mice and humans with APL.

This study found that parents identified with cryptic NCCAH through genetic testing are mostly asymptomatic but may experience temporary female infertility and require glucocorticoid stress coverage in specific circumstances.

This review discusses recent advancements in understanding and managing congenital adrenal hyperplasia, including improvements in screening, diagnostics, and potential genetic and cell-based treatments, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the urgent issue of preserving freedom of choice in dermatology, highlighted by the American Academy of Dermatology, and reports no new research findings.

This study found that combined hormonal contraceptives containing ethenyl estradiol and cyproterone acetate improved acne, hirsutism, menstrual irregularity, and dysmenorrhea in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome, with most participants showing significant symptom improvement after 6 to 12 months.

This study found that combining ASA with conditioned medium from adipose tissue-derived MSCs may offer a promising approach for protecting against hippocampal injuries, suggesting potential synergistic therapeutic benefits that merit further investigation.

This report describes a potential association between HAIR-AN syndrome and the onset of manic symptoms in a patient after discontinuing oral contraceptives, though this relationship requires further investigation.

This review covers the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to P450c21, but it reports no new clinical results.
