This case study reports successful treatment of frontal fibrosing alopecia with daily 2.5mg finasteride in a 77-year-old woman.

This study developed simulated skull models and a method to assess programming tool movements, selecting three models as most clinically relevant for hydrocephalus shunt valve programming.

This study found that tofacitinib was an effective and better-tolerated treatment for moderate-to-severe AA compared to SCs, though its efficacy decreased in patients with disease episodes longer than two years.

This study evaluated a new computer-aided detection system for identifying Breast Arterial Calcification in mammograms, achieving 70% accuracy, but highlighted the need for a larger dataset to explore its relationship with cardiovascular diseases.

This study explores the clinical significance of the intravesical prostatic protrusion/prostate volume ratio in diagnosing bladder outlet obstruction but reports no new results.

This analysis reports that hepatitis B surface protein antigen exposure is associated with an increased risk of alopecia areata.

In this case study, a girl with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets had a novel mutation in the VDR gene that affected hair cycling without causing total alopecia, suggesting ligand-independent VDR function in hair cycling.

The EADV Task Force on Hair Diseases reviewed existing literature and clinical experience to propose diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations for managing folliculitis decalvans, highlighting oral antibiotics, glucocorticosteroids, isotretinoin, and various systemic and topical therapies as key options for managing inflammation and preventing further hair loss.

This study found that conditioned medium from hair dermal papilla cells stimulated fetal bovine aortic endothelial cell growth and migration, suggesting VEGF-like activity in the medium.

The researchers concluded that blocking α1-integrin altered adhesion and enhanced migration in adult fibroblasts, suggesting its potential as a target for therapies aimed at reducing fibrosis.

In this study, the choice between Belimumab and Anifrolumab for treating Systemic Lupus Erythematosus was mainly influenced by the clinical features of the disease, such as chronic-active or relapsing-remitting courses and specific manifestations like cutaneous involvement or arthritis.

This clinical trial found that using a 45-degree angled implanter with the bevel facing the skin in FUE hair transplantation significantly reduced insertion resistance, graft popping, and bleeding, while improving efficiency and graft alignment compared to conventional methods.

This study found that recombinant human leukocyte interferon alfa-2a achieved a 64% overall antitumor response rate in patients with early and advanced cutaneous T cell lymphoma and was generally well-tolerated.

Abatacept may help some people with alopecia areata regrow hair.
