This paper reviews the genetic aspects of hair disorders and suggests that understanding these genes could advance treatment and diagnosis; it reports no new experimental findings.

This report describes two cases of toe tourniquet syndrome in infants, highlighting the importance for pediatric orthopedic practitioners to diagnose and manage it promptly, suggesting a specific incision method to release hair strangulation if removal is challenging.

This study found that minoxidil stimulates the Kir6.2/SUR2 potassium channel, leading to tumor growth arrest in an ovarian cancer xenograft model by disrupting mitochondrial function and inducing cell death.

This study found that transgenic mice expressing a mutant CYLD protein lacking deubiquitinase function showed signs of premature aging and spontaneous tumor development, likely due to over-activation of specific molecular pathways and chronic inflammation.

This study hypothesizes that a mummified 19th Century girl in San Francisco died of severe undernourishment potentially due to a bacterial-borne disease, highlighting historical health challenges mitigated by modern sanitation and medicine.

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 review summarizes current genetic knowledge of alopecia areata and provides a theoretical framework for future genetic mapping studies, but reports no new results.

This study found that dupilumab treatment in alopecia areata significantly suppressed Th2-related markers and increased hair keratin levels, suggesting a potential role of Th2 cytokines in the disease's pathogenesis.

This article discusses the challenges of treating lichen planopilaris, reviews various therapeutic options including minoxidil, and reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the BIOMAP consortium's efforts in standardizing data for atopic dermatitis and psoriasis research to facilitate personalized medicine, but it presents no new research findings.

This study reported that oral minoxidil improved hair density and had an acceptable safety profile in women with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that iron therapy improved nonhematological symptoms and cognitive function in women with iron deficiency anemia, highlighting the need for attention to these symptoms in improving quality of life.

In this study, adipose tissue secretome was shown to enhance oxidative stress resistance and promote cell proliferation in vitiligo cells, suggesting a potential natural treatment approach.

In this study, a novel homozygous mutation in the STAT5B gene was identified in a 17-year-old boy with growth hormone-refractory growth failure, severe eczema, and autoimmune disease, suggesting a similarity to known STAT5B deficiency phenotypes.

Certain microRNAs may help treat alopecia areata by targeting immune pathways.

This study found that topical diphenylcyclopropenone is an effective treatment for extensive alopecia areata, with significant hair regrowth reported in most patients, though effectiveness varied with disease characteristics.

This study observed that glycine inhibited root growth and stimulated root hair development in habanero pepper seedlings, with ethylene signaling suggested to mediate these effects.

This review discusses the pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical features, histology, and treatment of frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight its increasing incidence and challenging nature.

This study identifies cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) as a key extracellular matrix component in human hair follicle cycling, potentially regulated by TGFβ signaling, and suggests its importance in normal hair follicle biology.

This study found that Ifidancitinib, a JAK1/3 inhibitor, significantly promoted hair regrowth and reduced inflammation in a mouse model of alopecia areata by decreasing pathogenic T cell activity and inducing T cell exhaustion.

This article discusses various dermatological studies cited by previous authors and reports no new clinical results.

This study describes a genetic mutation in the desmoglein 4 gene linked to localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis in Pakistani families, showing similarities to animal models with similar hair loss conditions.

This review covers the variability in methods for preparing platelet-rich plasma and reports no new clinical results, suggesting that this variability may contribute to inconsistent efficacy in clinical trials.

This study found that an unhealthy lifestyle, including factors like past smoking and lack of fruit/vegetables in the diet, was associated with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome.

This study observed that reduced in utero exposure to the neurosteroid allopregnanolone increased anxiety-like behavior in female guinea pigs during the juvenile period without affecting long-term allopregnanolone levels.

This study reported that the PrrH sRNA in *Pseudomonas aeruginosa* may directly regulate genes involved in pyochelin siderophore biosynthesis, highlighting its role in adapting to heme availability, with light conditions influencing this gene expression.

This letter highlights that levonorgestrel intrauterine devices may lead to fewer systemic side effects, like acne, compared to its oral administration due to lower systemic levels of progestogens.

This study identified a missense mutation in the keratin 71 gene as the cause of autosomal dominant woolly hair/hypotrichosis in a Japanese family, marking the first human mutation in KRT71 linked to a hair disorder.

This study describes three female islet transplant recipients who unexpectedly developed alopecia areata about 7 years post-transplant, with a possible link to immunosuppressive treatment regimens.

Mutations in the Sgk3 gene cause fuzzy hair in mice.
