Higher levels of certain nerve-related proteins are linked to hair loss in women with scalp pain.

In this case report, a novel heterozygous mutation in the insulin receptor gene was identified in an adolescent girl with type A insulin resistance syndrome, characterized by excessive hair growth and skin changes, and her mother.

In this case report, interferon-alpha treatment for a man with hemophilia and hepatitis C was associated with unexpected diffuse hair growth, likely caused by the medication.

This article discusses the potential health risks associated with long-term use of finasteride and dutasteride for prostate and hair loss treatments, suggesting risks may include non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and other metabolic issues.

This overview describes the Dermatologic Surgery journal, which publishes extensive peer-reviewed content on skin surgery, but presents no new research findings.

This review discusses the mechanisms associated with protoporphyrin IX in living cells and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize its potential in cancer diagnosis and the risks of toxicity.

This study found that tofacitinib led to ≥50% hair regrowth in eight out of twelve patients with moderate to severe alopecia areata, suggesting a potential benefit for using JAK inhibitors in treating this condition.

This study found that keratins have evolutionarily conserved and domain-selectively enriched amino acids, which likely reflect their unique structural roles, with distinct patterns observed among epidermal, hair, and simple-type epithelial keratins.

This study concluded that teriflunomide has a consistent and manageable safety profile, with common mild-to-moderate adverse events and no new safety concerns identified over up to 12 years of treatment.

In this study, oral tofacitinib treatment led to significant hair regrowth and changes in skin and blood biomarkers in a patient with alopecia areata.

In this study, three patients with extensive alopecia areata showed varying degrees of hair regrowth after 20 weeks of treatment with ustekinumab, a cytokine-targeting therapy.

In this study, liver transaminase levels and various symptoms persisted in some adult dengue patients even two months after diagnosis.

This review examines various treatments for dissecting cellulitis, noting isotretinoin may offer the best chance for remission despite limited long-term data and calls for more clinical studies.

This study demonstrates that glucocorticoid hepatopathy in Beagle dogs led to rapid and lasting clinical, morphologic, and biochemical changes, which may aid in the future diagnosis and prognosis of similar conditions.

In this study, a high daily dose of interferon alfa-2b administered initially six times a week for two weeks followed by thrice weekly for 12 weeks was most effective in sustaining normal ALT values in patients.

In this study, researchers identified a highly reactive, isozyme-specific sequence for TGase 3, contributing to understanding its distinct functional role and activity distribution in the mouse epidermis.

This study observed that two patients treated with interferon α-2b and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C experienced complete and reversible straightening of their natural curly hair, which recurred with treatment resumption.

This study found that photodynamic therapy using 5-aminolevulinic acid or methyl aminolevulinate is a safe and effective treatment for acne vulgaris, particularly with 30 to 60 minutes of contact time and three treatments for significant long-term improvement.

This study found that nutritional deficiencies, particularly in amino acids and certain micronutrients, are common in individuals with hair loss across all types of alopecia.

This study found that teriflunomide, an oral medication taken once daily, significantly slowed disability progression in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis, supported by positive results in two Phase III trials and supplemented by various analyses including long-term studies and patient-reported outcomes.

Photodynamic therapy was effective in treating multiple scalp basal cell carcinomas with minimal side effects and good cosmetic results.

This review summarizes recent research on alopecia areata, highlighting advances in targeted therapies due to improved understanding of its immunopathogenesis, though it reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that combining microneedling with ALA-photodynamic therapy may be a promising treatment option for moderate to severe alopecia areata, achieving significant hair regrowth in some patients.

This review discusses the use of laser and intense light sources for hair removal and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the potential for aesthetic medicine to include these technologies.

In this study, copper was found to promote the proliferation of dermal papilla cells in Rex rabbits by maintaining the function of the cellular mitochondrial electron transport chain.

This study found that disrupting Lm332 expression in mice changes keratinocyte genetic expression, alters cell shape, and disrupts epidermal homeostasis, despite some compensatory anchorage by hair follicle basal cells.

This study found that Alpha Lipoic Acid may help reduce cigarette smoke-induced skin damage in rats by improving collagen structure and reducing markers of oxidative stress.

Two elderly men developed scalp inflammation after using a gel for skin lesions, which healed with treatment except for some permanent hair loss.

Test liver enzymes and triglycerides every 5-6 months, and cholesterol levels in the first two months for acne patients on isotretinoin.
