This study found that a novel drinkable supplement significantly increased hair density and reduced hair shedding over six months in women with telogen effluvium, although the authors emphasize the need for larger, placebo-controlled trials to confirm these promising results.

This meta-analysis found that among topical OTC treatments for male androgenetic alopecia, minoxidil 5% applied twice daily was the most effective in increasing total hair density over 24 weeks.

This review identified significant effects of photobiomodulation therapy on pain reduction in burning mouth syndrome, disability in knee osteoarthritis, and fatigue in fibromyalgia, but noted that most outcomes had low-to-moderate certainty of evidence, indicating a need for further high-quality trials.

This study suggests that while Nanostring profiling identifies important processes in resolving MA-ARDS, solely targeting late-stage resolution by altering SPM production is not enough. The researchers conclude that combining multi-targeted adjunctive therapies with antimalarial drugs may be necessary to enhance survival and recovery.

This study analyzed reports from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System and observed an upward trend in suicidality-related safety signals among young male finasteride users since 2019, peaking in 2022, highlighting emerging psychiatric safety concerns and the need for vigilant monitoring of this population.

This study found a significant association between finasteride use and increased risk of memory impairment, highlighting the need for risk communication and routine cognitive monitoring for long-term users.

This study examined three olive oil formulations of baricitinib for topical delivery in treating alopecia areata, finding that Oil A showed the highest skin retention and maintained skin integrity without irritation, suggesting its potential for further investigation.

This review discusses genetic and pharmacogenetic insights, along with RNA interference technologies, for developing personalized therapies for androgenetic alopecia, yet presents no new clinical results.

This review discusses selection signatures and selective sweeps in fiber-producing animals and recommends further genomic investigations to identify genes related to important fiber traits, without providing new results.

This study analyzed safety data for semaglutide, liraglutide, and tirzepatide from the EudraVigilance database, identifying potential safety signals not listed in current SmPCs, such as optic ischemic neuropathy and pancreatitis, underscoring the importance of ongoing pharmacovigilance.

This study identified several candidate genes related to wool production traits and adaptation to hot, arid environments in Iranian sheep, highlighting potential targets for future inbreeding programs.

This review emphasizes that collaboration between forensic anthropology and molecular anthropology could significantly improve the identification of unknown human remains by creating more comprehensive biological profiles.

This study examined Prunus mira populations in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and found high genetic diversity and substantial phylogeographic structure, suggesting geographic isolation limits gene flow; the researchers propose conservation strategies to preserve genetic resources.

This systematic review synthesizes evidence on the distribution of 5a-reductase isozymes and their implications for mental health, finding that inhibition of neurosteroidogenesis may contribute to anxiety, depression, and suicidality, with some patients experiencing persistent psychiatric effects from finasteride or dutasteride.

This study used a new statistical approach, PLACO, to identify several novel shared genetic regions associated with both Type 2 Diabetes and Prostate Cancer in two large GWAS datasets.

This study identified thousands of variant-metabolite associations in the human plasma metabolome, offering insights into the genetic bases of metabolism and potential adverse drug effects.

This study using Mendelian randomization in UK Biobank data suggests that lifelong increased free testosterone may have mixed effects, including increased bone density and prostate cancer risk, warranting well-powered trials to address uncertainties.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with Parry–Romberg syndrome displayed left-sided facial atrophy and subclinical central nervous system involvement detectable by neuroimaging, suggesting that even symptom-free cases may benefit from systematic brain evaluations.

This study assessed breeding value estimation methods for Korean Sapsaree dogs, finding varied accuracy across BLUP approaches and identifying significant genomic regions affecting traits like body height and hair length. The researchers suggest these findings can enhance breeding strategies for this culturally significant breed.

This study found that social hair plucking in captive rhesus macaques is linked to alopecia and possibly relates to stress in females.

This study found that micro-niches within hair follicles create heterogeneity among stem cells and transit-amplifying cells, leading to specialized progenitors that control tissue morphogenesis and regeneration.

This study found that Lgr5 and Lgr6 stem cells both activated wound-healing genes, but only Lgr5 stem cells changed their identity to contribute to new skin formation during wound repair.

This study identified potential ceRNA regulatory networks in cashmere goat hair follicle cycling, expanding understanding of lncRNA and miRNA biology and annotation of the goat genome.

This review discusses the potential of various Indian herbal medicines in treating cognitive impairment related to Alzheimer's disease but reports no new clinical findings; it highlights the need for further research.

This study found that the Hr gene loss and positive selection for the FGF5 gene in cetaceans likely contributed to hair loss as these animals adapted to aquatic environments.

This study highlights the loss of hair-type keratin genes in cetaceans compared to terrestrial mammals, suggesting a potential adaptive role linked to their hairless phenotype and habitat changes.

In this study, researchers found that cepharanthine significantly inhibited HSV-1 replication in vitro by interfering with specific signaling pathways, arresting the cell cycle, and inducing apoptosis in infected cells, highlighting its potential as an antiviral agent.

In this study, researchers used cryo-electron microscopy to reveal how the natural compound osthole inhibits TRPV3 channels by binding to specific sites, changing the channel's conformation.

In this study, the researchers reported extensive gene loss and high pseudogenization rates of α-keratin genes in cetaceans compared to terrestrial mammals, likely linked to hair loss and aquatic adaptations.

In this study, transgenic mice altered to express a Clim-inhibiting molecule under a keratin promoter showed corneal degradation and hair follicle failure, highlighting Clim proteins' role in maintaining these tissues.
