This study reports two distinct patterns of hair changes in postmenopausal women, linking diffuse generalized scalp hair loss to older age and frontal hair loss to higher facial hair scores and younger age.

In this study, transgenic male mice over-expressing the androgen receptor in mesenchymal stem cells showed reduced fat mass and improved glucose clearance, suggesting enhanced androgen sensitivity may alter body composition.

This study found that a mindfulness-based intervention significantly reduced alopecia distress and improved body image coping and health-related quality of life among Egyptian women with breast cancer and chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This study reported that oral isotretinoin can be an effective and safe treatment for acne vulgaris when used at the appropriate dosage, offering a low-complication option.

In this study, females with hirsutism showed higher levels of certain androgens and reported more frequent symptoms such as infertility and increased skin greasiness compared to those without hirsutism.

This study found that men receiving negative appearance-related commentary are more likely to experience negative psychological outcomes, while positive feedback tends to lead to better outcomes despite encouraging appearance-change behaviors.

In this study, women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed adverse lipoprotein profile changes that increase cardiovascular risk, which were found to be more closely related to androgen levels than body weight.

This review discusses the classification and regulation challenges of anti-ageing cosmetics in Europe and reports no new findings; it calls for increased transparency to help consumers make informed choices.

This study found that lifestyle interventions improved body composition, hyperandrogenism, and insulin resistance in women with PCOS, but did not affect glucose tolerance, lipid profiles, or clinical reproductive outcomes.

This study found that G protein-coupled estrogen receptor enhances melanin synthesis in melanoma cells through cAMP-PKA-MITF-TYR signaling, suggesting its potential as a drug target for chloasma treatment.

In this study, transgender adolescents treated with testosterone for a median of 12 months experienced effective virilization, including voice deepening and increased hair growth, but also showed decreased HDL cholesterol and BMD z-scores, and increased hematocrit, with no short-term safety issues reported.

This study found that variations in sleep patterns, free testosterone, and 5-alpha-reductase type 1 activity are associated with changes in sebum excretion in women, which may contribute to variability in acne studies.

In this study, researchers found that overweight and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed adverse changes in glucose metabolism over time, highlighting the importance of early intervention to prevent cardiometabolic diseases.

In this study, five out of six patients treated with vemurafenib for metastatic melanoma experienced hair loss, which improved after topical steroid treatment.

This study analyzed gene expression changes during the autumn coat color change in mountain hares and found conserved gene regulation with snowshoe hares, highlighting its role in seasonal camouflage adaptation.

Skin aging reflects overall body aging and can indicate internal health conditions.

This case report highlights a misdiagnosis of an epidermoid cyst as a dermoid cyst using ultrasound, suggesting that specific ultrasound features can improve diagnostic accuracy for skin lesions.

This study found that inhibiting AP1 transcription factor activity in the suprabasal epidermis of mice alters keratinocyte gene expression, reducing barrier integrity and mimicking human keratoderma.

This study found that cadmium levels were significantly higher in women with chronic telogen effluvium compared to healthy controls, suggesting cadmium toxicity might contribute to this hair shedding condition.

This publication discusses the 2021 ESC Guidelines for the prevention of cardiovascular disease in clinical practice and reports no new results.

This review summarizes recent studies on metformin for polycystic ovary syndrome, reporting its beneficial effects on endocrine, metabolic, and reproductive outcomes, but highlights ongoing debate about its mechanisms.

This review discusses guidelines for androgen use in women and concludes that more research is needed before recommending testosterone due to insufficient evidence on safety and efficacy.

This article reviews various causes and treatments for alopecia, including nutritional deficiencies, stress, and hormonal changes, and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the multiple layers of environmental controls on hair stem cell homeostasis and suggests that targeting these layers could offer safer regenerative medicine therapies without directly using stem cells.

This review discusses the interactions and signals affecting skin stem cells and their environments but reports no new experimental results; the authors highlight the need for understanding these processes to enhance tissue rejuvenation and repair.

In this study, men with androgenetic alopecia had lower BMI and waist-to-hip ratios than controls, but no significant association with hypertension or other lifestyle factors was observed.

In this study, nearly all predialysis chronic kidney disease patients had at least one dermatologic finding, with xerosis being the most common, highlighting the prevalence and diversity of skin issues in this population.

This study reported a previously undescribed form of hereditary hypotrichosis in a family, characterized by childhood-onset hair loss, morphea, and probable autosomal dominant inheritance.

This study in Mexican patients with alopecia areata found that body hair involvement was linked to disease progression, while treatment adherence was associated with both remission and progression.

This review discusses the complex mechanisms behind acne vulgaris and suggests that dietary modification, along with pro- and prebiotics, may influence its pathogenesis by addressing stress-induced skin inflammation.
