This study evaluated current treatments for pediatric alopecia areata and found that high potency topical steroids had the strongest supporting evidence, with promising results also observed for anthralin ointment and other treatments in lower-grade studies.

This study observed that smokers and alcohol consumers with androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower serum levels of antioxidant vitamins, and these habits may trigger earlier onset of alopecia in susceptible individuals.

This study found that a majority of dermatologists in Saudi Arabia believe in using vitamins and minerals to treat hair loss but emphasized the need for more research to confirm their effectiveness.

This study observed that social media significantly influences biotin supplement use among young women in Pakistan, often outweighing professional medical advice.

This case report describes a six-year-old child with congenital biotinidase deficiency whose symptoms, including breathlessness, alopecia, and hearing loss, were reversed with biotin supplementation.

In this study, biotinidase deficiency in children usually presented with neurological or skin symptoms, while metabolic ketoacidosis and organic aciduria appeared later.

This study concluded that terminal Schwann cells are essential for the maintenance and regeneration of mechanosensory lanceolate complexes at hair follicles in adult mice.

This study found that male germ-free rats fed semisynthetic diets do not grow as rapidly as their conventional counterparts and require dietary biotin for normal metabolism and folic acid biosynthesis.

This review summarizes causes and treatments of androgenetic alopecia with a focus on herbs as potential alternatives, but reports no new results and suggests more research is needed to validate these options.

This review discusses the prognosis and treatment options for hair shaft disorders, finding no studies but suggesting some disorders improve with specific treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while gentle hair care remains essential.

This review discusses various therapeutic options for alopecia areata and reports no new clinical results; treatments may manage symptoms but do not cure the condition.

This review discusses telogen effluvium as a common cause of diffuse hair loss and reports no new clinical results, noting diagnostic and treatment challenges.

In this case report, a 2.5-year-old boy with biotinidase deficiency, initially misdiagnosed due to overlapping symptoms, showed dramatic improvement in several clinical areas after starting biotin supplementation, but persistent sensorineural hearing loss underscored the importance of early diagnosis for preventing irreversible complications.

This study reported that applying Serum WS Biotin, a water-soluble form of D-Biotin, daily for 3 months significantly reduced hair shedding and increased hair strength in volunteers with moderate to excessive hair shedding, while showing good skin compatibility.

The study developed herbal hair gummies using ingredients like fenugreek, amla, and bhringraj, alongside folic acid, zinc, and biotin, concluding they are palatable, meet quality standards, exhibit antioxidant properties, and may effectively enhance hair growth and reduce hair loss.

This study investigates differences in nutritional status, vitamin, and mineral levels between individuals with telogen effluvium and a control group, aiming to understand the nutritional factors involved in this condition.

This study reports that a low concentration of chitosan induces callose deposition and slows root hair growth in Arabidopsis, suggesting an evolutionary conservation of this response to mild biotic stress across plant types.

This research focused on formulating finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil with cyclodextrins to enhance their solubility and skin penetration for topical use, potentially reducing scalp irritation from current alcohol-based preparations.

In this study, among 50 patients with premature hair graying, the combination of biotin, zinc, and calcium pantothenate showed no significant efficacy in treating the condition, and the researchers observed associations with other disorders such as anemia, alopecia areata, thyroid disorder, and vitiligo.

This study found that cyclosporine A treatment at 5 mg/kg/day may reduce inflammation and promote gland regeneration in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, though symptoms returned when treatment stopped.

This study reported that in a mouse tail wound model, the synthetic dual inhibitor corin accelerated wound closure by enhancing re-epithelialization, and further in vitro experiments demonstrated increased expression of genes promoting keratinocyte migration, suggesting its potential as a treatment for chronic wounds.

This review discusses the strengths and weaknesses of existing studies on complex dietary supplements for hair loss, emphasizing the need for valid measurement methods like TrichoScale® to quantify effectiveness; it reports no new results.

In this controlled study, a 6-month treatment with the nutraceutical product ViviScal® reduced telogen hair fibers and increased total hair fibers in 83% of participants with Telogen Effluvium, who also reported improved hair and nail growth, skin appearance, and overall quality of life.

Eating a balanced diet with specific nutrients can help manage menopause symptoms and prevent related health issues.

This review examines how epigenetic dysregulation affects adult stem cell function, noting that impacts range from minor to serious disruptions in tissue homeostasis and potential cancer development.

This study found that CD44 and CD49d together enhance signaling pathways in lymphocytes in mice with alopecia areata, influencing their activation and function.

PABA helps prevent gray hair and hair loss in mice.

This study observed that six sessions of injections using a stabilized hyaluronic acid compound improved hair thickness, shine, density, and reduced hair loss in volunteers with moderate androgenetic alopecia, with excellent treatment tolerability and high satisfaction reported by 88.5% of participants.

This study found that the black bean-licorice-biotae folium extract may improve hair diameter, scalp moisture, and sebum secretion, although its effect on hair density was not significant.

In this study, researchers found that topical treatment with adenosine improved hair growth and thickness by significantly increasing hair density and thickness after four months in vivo, with results comparable to minoxidil, potentially due to adenosine's anti-androgenic effects.
