This study reports that over one-quarter of dermatology outpatients show psychiatric morbidity, highlighting the importance of considering psychological factors in managing skin diseases.

This article discusses advancements in hair restoration, highlighting the use of robotics and follicular unit extraction along with adjuvant therapies like platelet-rich plasma, but presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that alopecia significantly reduces quality of life among South African Black women, with subjective symptoms and self-image concerns having the greatest impact.

In this study, detailed examinations of alopecic lesions in two female Cronkhite-Canada syndrome patients suggested hair regrowth might occur without systemic corticosteroids if not required for gastrointestinal treatment, and hair loss may begin with anagen-telogen transition.

This study found that older women with polycystic ovarian syndrome are more likely to experience metabolic syndrome and have different metabolic and reproductive profiles than younger women.

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

In this review, the authors discuss the potential for cell therapy, such as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and mesenchymal stromal cells, to treat severe psoriasis unresponsive to biological therapies, while highlighting the associated risks, costs, and regulatory challenges.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced levodopa-induced dyskinesia in both male and female rats without diminishing l-DOPA's motor benefits, indicating potential for clinical trials in Parkinson's patients.

This study found that an 8-week practice of pranic meditation was associated with improved quality of life and mental health scores in breast cancer survivors, though further research is needed for confirmation.

This study found that Centipeda minima extract promotes hair growth by activating Wnt/β-catenin, ERK, and JNK signaling pathways in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells.

This review discusses hair restoration procedures for transgender patients undergoing gender transformation surgery and describes the authors' surgical approach but reports no clinical outcomes.

This paper discusses the first reported case of post-finasteride syndrome in a long-term dermatotrichology setting, occurring in a 25-year-old male after dutasteride treatment, and highlights possible links to mental health disorders.

This study revealed that in androgenic alopecia, the proximal attachment of the arrector pili muscle to the hair follicle is often lost or significantly reduced.

This article discusses the importance of specialized skill in hair restoration surgery and emphasizes the potential impact of both surgeon and assistant errors on the success of the procedure; it reports no new results.

A new mutation in the HR gene causes hair loss in a specific family.

This study reports that in women with non-tumor hyperandrogenism, a decrease in serum testosterone from insulin-sensitizing therapy like metformin may indicate a low likelihood of having an androgen-secreting tumor.

This article argues that the promissory discourse in the anti-ageing treatments market exploits societal anxieties about ageing, but its long-term sustainability is questionable as many promises remain undeliverable.

This review discusses the clinical presentations of alopecia areata, introduces guidelines for treatment studies, and explores potential changes in cutaneous innervation, but reports no new clinical results.

This content only provides information about the JAMA Dermatology publication platform and reports no research results.

This report describes a 19-year-old male with 49,XXXXY syndrome receiving testosterone replacement therapy, which led to improvements in reproductive development, metabolism, and social interaction after a year of treatment.

This review discusses the range and management of adverse cutaneous reactions to psychotropic medications and emphasizes the need for awareness among clinicians, concluding with a call for careful monitoring and patient education.

This study found that the patch assay effectively reconstituted mature hair follicles using culture-expanded human fetal cells and may serve as a method to assess cell trichogenicity.

This report presents a unique case where a man developed Beau's lines on all fingers of one hand after a thumb injury, with the lines eventually disappearing as the nails grew.

This review discusses the use of finasteride and alpha antagonists for symptomatic benign prostatic hypertrophy and suggests current studies are evaluating combination therapies as potential non-surgical alternatives.

This article describes a rare case of mixed black and white piedra in a patient's scalp hair, which is unusual as these two types of piedra rarely occur together.

In this study, PKC ε transgenic mice exposed to ultraviolet radiation showed increased hair follicle stem cell frequency and altered gene expression compared to wild-type mice, suggesting a potential role in skin cancer susceptibility.

This study identified FP-1 as a highly specific extracellular matrix protein in follicular papilla cells, which may play a role in hair growth regulation during specific hair cycle phases.

This study observed that amino acid uptake into wool follicles varies significantly, with cysteine showing the highest uptake rate, suggesting specialized transport systems that may influence wool growth.

This study found that the presence of Malassezia fungi in the scalp's hairy roots was more pronounced in individuals with androgenetic alopecia than in healthy controls, suggesting a potential link to the condition.
