Four genetic risk spots found for hair loss, with WNT signaling involved and a link to curly hair.

In this phase 2 study, baricitinib at 2 mg and 4 mg doses significantly improved hair regrowth in adults with alopecia areata and ≥50% scalp hair loss compared to placebo, without new safety concerns, although the small sample size limits the results' generalizability.

This study suggests that the AR/EDA2R locus may contribute to early-onset female pattern hair loss, but no association was found with the 20p11 locus.

This study suggests that sex hormone does not significantly impact the prevalence or clinical outcomes of COVID-19 in South Korean patients.

This study observed that Koreans generally have lower hair density, larger diameter, and slower growth rate compared to Caucasians, providing useful baseline data for studying hair diseases and treatments.

This study developed a digital tool for quantitatively assessing hair in androgenetic alopecia, achieving an average accuracy of 79.45% for counting hairs and 68.19% for measuring hair size compared to human evaluation.

A new computer tool quickly measures hair thickness differences in people with common types of hair loss.

This study found that using trait prevalence-informed priors may improve the prediction accuracy of appearance traits in Bayesian models, but their application is limited by sparse knowledge on trait prevalence.

Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.

This study identified 63 genetic loci associated with male-pattern baldness, uncovering genes and pathways that may help develop treatments and suggesting its connection to other human conditions.

This study provides evidence that a polygenic component contributes to the heritable risk for androgenetic alopecia, indicating the need for further research to identify the complex biological pathways involved.

This study found no significant association between selected gene variants and female pattern hair loss, suggesting these genes might not be involved in its development.

This review explores the role of the biomedical esthetician and the potential benefits of platelet-rich plasma in treating hair loss after COVID-19, without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that metformin, insulin, and ACE inhibitors were associated with lower PSA levels, but statins did not decrease PSA, whereas low dose finasteride (1 mg) reduced PSA levels similarly to the higher 5 mg dose.

In a rat model, this study found that a hydrogel incorporating adipose-derived stem cells and nerve growth factor may aid in the recovery of erectile function following cavernous nerve injury.

This paper discusses the management of pregnancy in a carrier of the Donohue mutation and reports no new clinical findings.

The trichometer accurately measures hair growth and is easy to use.

This paper reviews genome-based personalized medicine developments using Web services for analyzing SNPs in reproductive potential but reports no new clinical findings.

This database provides detailed physiological parameters of porcine skin to enhance the MPML MechDermA Model, improving dermal absorption predictions for human studies in the Simcyp Simulator.

This study highlighted that advancements in genome-wide association studies have identified numerous DNA variants linked to human appearance traits, significantly enhancing our understanding of the genetic and epigenetic factors influencing human phenotypes and contributing to genomic tools for anthropology and forensics.

This study in young Ukrainian men found that specific body measurements, like shoulder width and tibia epiphysis width, are highly predictive of alopecia areata occurrence, though not for its progression, using discriminant models (p<0.001).

In this study, Thai scalp hair exhibited some age and sex variations in hair area, which may aid forensic and anthropological investigations.

The digital system for measuring melasma shows promise but needs more development for better accuracy and automation.

Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.

This review discusses various forms of ichthyosis, including genetic and acquired types, detailing their characteristics, causes, and potential management strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This review examines the literature on the molecular and cellular makeup of the hair follicle niche and how it influences stem cell behavior during hair regeneration, but does not provide new experimental results.

In this study, high-dose dutasteride significantly reduced several core symptoms of PMDD compared to placebo, supporting the role of neurosteroids in this condition.

This article describes the development and validation of a standardized instrument for measuring skin involvement in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, aiming to aid future clinical research and trials.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that in a mouse model, the stimulation of mammary tumor growth due to progesterone is primarily caused by its metabolite, 5αP, not progesterone itself.

This article describes the 25Up study on psychological and behavioral risk factors for mental illness in Australian twins and their siblings and reports prevalence data for various mental disorders.
