This review examines the evaluation and management of hirsutism and hyperandrogenism in postmenopausal women and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that the subtilisin protease Sub3 from Microsporum canis is essential for adherence to the feline epidermis but is not necessary for invading epidermal structures.

Vitiligo causes white skin patches and is linked to autoimmune issues.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new results; the authors propose more robust criteria to address diagnostic variability and measurement uncertainty.

This study found that in scarring alopecia, stem cells are differentially localized, suggesting that both inner and outer root sheath stem cells, rather than just follicular bulge stem cells, are involved.

In this study, jaw wiring led to significant weight loss in patients with severe obesity, but two-thirds regained weight after the wires were removed.

This study found that moderate to severe androgenetic alopecia is an independent predictor of increased mortality risk from diabetes mellitus and heart disease in both sexes.

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

Hidradenitis suppurativa improves with antiandrogen therapy.

This study reported that alopecia is a common but often underreported side effect of endocrine-based cancer therapies, with tamoxifen showing the highest incidence of hair loss among analyzed treatments.

This study identified chemokine receptor ligands cxcl10 and cxcl11 as new hair-specific transcriptional targets of the Eda pathway, suggesting chemokine signaling plays a role in primary hair follicle patterning.

This review discusses the molecular basis and clinical implications of primary generalized glucocorticoid resistance and hypersensitivity, attributing them to mutations in the human glucocorticoid receptor gene, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia experience diffuse hair loss due to a decrease in terminal hairs and an increase in vellus hairs per follicular unit.

Hair follicles in people with alopecia have lower levels of a key blood vessel growth protein.

Nitrendipine and nifedipine effectively block muscle contractions, while papaverine relaxes them and minoxidil needs high amounts to work.

This study found that Turner’s syndrome is associated with significant bone mass decrease due to estrogen deficiency, which can be improved with estrogen therapy, while bone issues in Klinefelter’s syndrome may benefit from early androgen therapy and possibly bisphosphonates.

This study reported that targeted anticancer therapies are associated with an increased risk of alopecia compared to placebo, although the risk was lower compared to chemotherapy.

This review discusses the International Evidence-Based PCOS Guidelines, which aim to improve diagnosis and management of PCOS and its associated comorbidities, noting the importance of early intervention and healthy lifestyle changes; it reports no new results.

This study confirmed that a sulfotransferase enzyme test can effectively rule out 95.9% of nonresponders to 5% topical minoxidil for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This article presents a unique case of hair-thread tourniquet syndrome in a 3-month-old, with a hair causing bony erosion of the toe, and includes a literature review and meta-analysis.

This study suggests that minoxidil may enhance hair growth by stimulating adipose-derived stem cell motility and growth factor secretion, promoting dermal papilla cell proliferation and accelerating anagen induction.

This study found that a single injection of platelet-rich stroma significantly increased hair density in men with androgenetic alopecia within 6 to 12 weeks, with no reported side effects.

This review discusses the role of complement activation in SLE and suggests that while monitoring C3 and C4 remains important, increased levels of cell-bound complement activation products may better indicate disease activity.

Human platelets change minoxidil to minoxidil sulfate, helping blood vessels widen.

This study found that finasteride treatment in male rats led to enduring effects on depressive-like behavior, hippocampal neurogenesis and neuroinflammation, and gut microbiota composition after withdrawal.

This case report and review discuss hair-thread tourniquet syndrome in a 14-year-old autistic child, highlighting its rarity and the misconception of it being linked to abuse or socio-cultural practices.
