This case report describes a 70-year-old woman whose obstructive sleep apnea resolved after the removal of a testosterone-producing ovarian tumor, supporting the theory that testosterone influences OSA in women.

Alopecia areata may involve stress-related changes affecting hormone receptors, leading to reduced cortisol production.

Hair transplantation successfully treated hair loss in a patient with Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome.

Taking too much Albendazole can cause hair loss and other serious side effects.

This study reports the crystal structure and geometric parameters of a modified Finasteride derivative, highlighting significant differences in dihedral angles compared to its solvated analog and computational models.

Taking too much Albendazole can cause hair loss and other serious side effects.

This study found that dermal papilla cells exhibit stage-dependent variation in histone methylation during the hair follicle cycle and display distinct chromatin marker expression when transitioning to in vitro culture.

This study found that trichothiodystrophy can be diagnosed prenatally in the second trimester using an endoscopically-guided fetal eyebrow biopsy, with sulfur content analysis being the most reliable test.

This study found that a truncated region of the K5 promoter directs expression in stratified epithelia, particularly in epidermis, hair follicles, and tongue, potentially involving specific keratinocyte nuclear proteins in regulation.

This study found that the Wnt inhibitor Dkk4 may play a role in regulating hair follicle development through a feedback loop with canonical Wnt signaling pathways.

This study found that as few as 90 base pairs of the K5 promoter directed keratinocyte-preferred expression in stratified epithelia, especially in epidermis, hair follicles, and tongue, showing cell type specificity.

This article reviews the genetic mutations causing male pseudohermaphroditism from 17 beta-HSD-3 and 5 alpha-RD-2 deficiencies and reports no new clinical findings.

The study found that the Marangoni effect causes the uneven wetting of surfactant-coated hair due to the surfactant moving into the water.

Hair follicles in injured skin can quickly accumulate minerals, especially calcium and phosphorus.

This study found that objective measurements of hair growth, such as hair growth rate and diameter, can provide a more accurate evaluation of androgenic alopecia than subjective grading alone.

This study used an in silico/in vitro approach to identify potential inhibitors of the enzyme SRD5A2, finding that the androgen receptor modulator MK-0773 is a moderate inhibitor, although it does not act as a covalent inhibitor like finasteride.

This chapter reviews various in vitro and laboratory animal models for studying potential therapies for alopecia and reports no new results.

A substance called prostaglandin D2 is linked to stopping hair growth in men with common baldness.

This review discusses Dr. Gill Westgate's background in hair growth regulation and industry experience, but reports no new findings or results.

This study found that mild skin injuries in rats, especially those dosed with dihydrotachysterol, lead to mineral deposits in hair follicle tissue within 6-12 hours, as confirmed by chemical and X-ray diffraction analyses.

This article questions whether frontal fibrosing alopecia and fibrosing androgeneic patterned hair loss are overlapping conditions or stages of the same process, calling for further research to clarify their underlying factors.

Title change to "Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia (CCCA)"; common in African American women; hair-grooming methods may contribute; no effective therapy found; trials needed.

This case report describes a patient with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome experiencing female pattern hair loss, suggesting that factors beyond direct androgen action may contribute to this condition in women.

Use "female pattern hair loss" term, finasteride may help, more research needed.

This review discusses female pattern hair loss, emphasizing its complex causes and the limited treatment options available, and reports no new clinical results.

Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.

This study found that the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia increases with age among both men and women in Maryborough, Australia, with 57% of women and 73.5% of men aged 80 and over affected.

This study found that 88% of women with female pattern hair loss who received oral antiandrogens saw no progression or improvement in their condition.

Minoxidil promotes hair growth in male pattern baldness.

This analysis concluded that hair regrowth in male and female pattern hair loss treatments did not involve converting vellus hairs into terminal hairs, suggesting a reactivation of dormant non-vellus follicles instead.
