This article reviews the structure, genomic organization, and pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 and discusses current efforts in prevention and treatments for COVID-19 without reporting new clinical results.

This review reports that empirical evidence suggests an overlap between Long Covid, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia, highlighting the need for standardized definitions and rigorous methodologies in related research.

This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a higher dose (100-mg) of ritlecitinib for treating severe alopecia areata, comparing it to external and synthetic placebo control groups.

This report details a pediatric COVID-19 case with skin symptoms aligning with multisystem inflammatory syndrome.

FDG PET/CT can improve cancer treatment plans in dogs.

This analysis concluded that the evidence does not establish a cause-and-effect relationship between iron intake and the maintenance of normal hair growth in non-menopausal women with excessive hair loss.

In this study, β-catenin overexpression in human hair outer root sheath cells increased the expression of Pitx2, which activated the follicular differentiation pathway, suggesting Pitx2's potential role as a modulator in hair growth control.

In this study, canine hair follicle stem cells were shown to be multipotent, capable of differentiating into various cell types like adipocytes in vitro.

In this animal study, Hirudo verbana leech extract significantly improved hair follicle regeneration and accelerated wound healing in rats, demonstrating potential as a safe and effective agent for skin repair due to its bioactive compounds with regenerative and anti-inflammatory properties.

This study found that Sophora flavescens extract may promote hair growth in mice by inducing earlier hair cycle changes and regulating growth factors in dermal papilla cells.

This study conducted a genome-wide association analysis on 1,125 ewes and identified 24 SNPs associated with wool production traits, and highlighted potential candidate genes like ADAR and TP53 for further research into the genetic mechanisms influencing wool growth in sheep.

This study found that teriflunomide, an oral medication taken once daily, significantly slowed disability progression in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis, supported by positive results in two Phase III trials and supplemented by various analyses including long-term studies and patient-reported outcomes.

In this study, hydrolysates of lactic acid bacteria were found to enhance hair growth in C57BL/6 male mice more effectively than 5% minoxidil.

This study suggests that cepharanthine may play an important role in treating SARS-CoV-2 infection by targeting multiple pathways and related targets associated with COVID-19.

This study describes and characterizes four cases of alopecia areata induced by immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in cancer patients, highlighting the importance of recognizing and managing these hair-related adverse events.

This study highlights the evolving understanding of acne's pathophysiology and suggests that targeting pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-17, IL-23, and TNFα with biological antibodies may offer new treatment strategies for severe acne and its scars.

New treatments for male hypogonadism are effective and should be personalized.

This study found that hirsutism significantly negatively impacts quality of life, with self-assessed severity more strongly linked to quality-of-life impact and depressive symptoms than clinician assessments.

This workshop review discusses the dual role of cellular senescence in cancer, highlighting both its anticancer effects and pro-tumorigenic potential, while reporting no new research results.

This study developed a theoretical model that suggests finasteride may completely inhibit 5AR type 2, but not sufficiently suppress type 1, leading to only partial reduction of dihydrotestosterone at clinical doses.

This study found similarities in the regeneration processes of MRL mouse ears and axolotl limbs, involving G2 cell cycle arrest and nerve-dependent mitosis, but the role of p21 in axolotl limb regeneration remains uncertain.

This review discusses the role of sex hormones in COVID-19 severity and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest further research for gender-based personalized treatment options.

This study explores how SARS-CoV-2 interacts with endocrine organs and highlights specific endocrine molecules that help explain the progression and outcomes of COVID-19, especially in patients with certain metabolic conditions.

This study found that a transdermal delivery system using 3% azone and P407 gel may enhance the skin permeation of doxazosin and finasteride for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that Caspase-1, traditionally viewed as an inflammasome component, is secreted upon wounding and plays a novel role by triggering hair follicle stem cell migration into the epidermis, offering insights into epithelial hyperplasia mechanisms in inflammatory skin conditions.

This study developed a new method to analyze Cantú syndrome mutations in KATP channels, finding that while Kir6.1 mutations increase sensitivity to potassium channel openers, SUR2B mutations show reduced sensitivity, but both result in marked hyperpolarization compared to wild-type channels under basal conditions.

This case study reports a misdiagnosis of secondary syphilis with probable neurosyphilis as PLEVA in a 12-year-old, highlighting the importance of considering syphilis in patients with unusual symptoms.

This study reports conflicting evidence on whether GLP-1 receptor agonists are associated with various forms of alopecia, suggesting dermatology practitioners should consider monitoring and counseling patients using these medications.

GLP-1 receptor agonists may help or harm hair health, needing more research.

This study reported that, in a laboratory setting, araliadiol derived from Centella asiatica activated antioxidant pathways, mitigating urban particulate matter-induced oxidative stress and skin damage.
