This case report highlights the successful treatment of a 37-year-old male with steroid-resistant beard alopecia areata using baricitinib, a JAK-1/2 inhibitor, over 9 months, resulting in reduced hair loss and improved hair density.

This review highlights that bicalutamide, a non-steroidal antiandrogen used in prostate cancer treatment, is mainly effective through its (R)-enantiomer and emphasizes the need to monitor its adverse effects despite its targeted antiandrogenic action.

This study found that supplementing baby pigs with riboflavin relieved external symptoms of deficiency, but many internal issues persisted, possibly due to inadequate dosage or treatment duration.

This article suggests that eyelash prostheses may exacerbate isotretinoin-induced blepharitis, highlighting the need for caution among young women using both products.

This case report describes a newborn diagnosed with dominant dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa due to a COL7A1 mutation, following the presentation of blisters that healed without further complications.

In this study, BECD-treated wavy hair showed reduced undulation and improved straightening after drying, as BECD enhanced the contraction and rearrangement of molecular chains in non-keratin proteins, unlike untreated hair, which retained its wavy structure.

This study found that SYP123 and VAMP727 are involved in the secretion and transport of inner cell wall components, which is crucial for hardening the root hair shank in Arabidopsis.

This commentary questions the value of preparing for the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery certification in states where it cannot be advertised.

This article explores the rising popularity of body sugaring as a hair removal technique and reports no new research findings.

This review examines the existing research on pathologic hairpulling, skin picking, and nail biting, suggesting these behaviors are underrecognized and may benefit from a unified diagnostic categorization; it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, the researchers cloned and analyzed the CRABP I gene in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats, finding its highest mRNA expression at 90 days in embryo skin compared to later stages.

The researchers reported finding a recessive nonsense variant in the EGFR gene responsible for perinatal lethality in the "Blonde d'Aquitaine" cattle breed, prompting the development of a screening test to help eradicate this genetic flaw.

This case report discusses a 6-year-old girl with loose anagen hair syndrome, characterized by painlessly shedding hair, and notes no evidence of benefit from biotin supplementation.

This letter by Dr. Saul P. Davis details concerns about the use of bacteriostatic saline with benzyl alcohol in hair transplantation, but reports no new research findings.

Shaving caused a mild, itchy pubic rash with small bumps and crusts.

This study found that ethanolic extract and fractions of Ceiba leaf tonic may enhance rabbit hair growth similarly to 2% minoxidil.

This study observed that patients with androgenetic alopecia had significantly higher serum FABP4 levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting FABP4 may be involved in the condition's pathogenesis.
