This study validated that both tape-based and image-based methods for measuring head crown areas, and the CASLite NOVA as well as Image-Pro software for hair count, showed acceptable agreement, supporting their interchangeable use in hair care research settings.

This case study reports a 52-year-old man experiencing acute hair loss after starting carbamazepine, suggesting two potential mechanisms for this rare side effect based on its timing.

This study found that US adults with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia most preferred a hypothetical adjunctive therapy that prevents glucocorticoid-induced weight gain over other potential benefits.

This study found that patients with non-classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency do not appear to be at risk of short adult stature despite increased bone age in childhood.

This study identified CCCA in 10 children of African descent, highlighting the occurrence of this scarring alopecia in patients under 18 and the importance of early diagnosis for better outcomes.

In preclinical studies, topical CUR61414 reduced Hh signaling and shrank BCCs in mice, but this study found no clinical efficacy in human superficial or nodular BCCs.

This study found that baicalin delivery through polymeric nanocapsules significantly enhanced its anticancer activity in breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231.

Genetic factors, especially PADI3 gene variants, contribute to CCCA in women of African descent.

This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of 2-mg and 4-mg doses of baricitinib in patients with alopecia areata who have lost at least 50% of their scalp hair, comparing outcomes between those with early and late onset of the disease.

This study found that 5-bromo-3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (BDB) promoted hair growth in rat vibrissa follicles by activating Wnt/β-catenin and autophagy pathways and inhibiting the TGF-β pathway in dermal papilla cells.

This study found that newborn mice given 6-aminonicotinamide developed skin, intestinal, and central nervous system lesions, offering insights into the mechanisms of pellagra.

This study found that precision 40Hz gamma-transcranial alternating current stimulation significantly improved negative and cognitive symptoms in patients with schizophrenia compared to a sham group, suggesting promising potential for this neuromodulation technique in treating these symptoms.

This study reported that an HS-associated NCSTN mutation in iPSC-derived skin organoids led to altered hair follicle stem cell differentiation and increased expression of proteins linked to HS inflammation.

The researchers reported that in nonmelanoma skin cancers, the expression of osteopontin splice variants is significantly higher compared to normal skin, with OPN-a elevated in basal cell carcinoma more than OPN-c.

This review discusses the challenges in diagnosing different causes of adult androgen excess and outlines current screening and management strategies but reports no new findings.

This study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of MNC-QQ cell therapy in five men with androgenic alopecia, reporting no adverse effects and improvements in hair growth, hair density, and quality of life over six months.

This research observed that mutations in the PTCH gene are common in both sporadic and hereditary basal cell cancers, suggesting a critical role of the PTCH signaling pathway in skin tumor development.

This study found that Cornu cervi pantotrichum pharmacopuncture solution significantly promoted hair growth in mice by enhancing hair follicular cell proliferation and up-regulating FGF-7 expression.

In this mouse study, the absence of the Ascl4 gene did not affect the development of hair follicles, teeth, or mammary glands, suggesting it is non-essential for these processes.

This A.S.P.E.N. document offers guidance for managing parenteral nutrition shortages, emphasizing alternative routes and careful allocation to prevent deficiencies.

This review discusses dietary manipulation strategies in a mouse model of CBS deficiency and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the importance of understanding gene-diet interactions.

This article reports three cases of African American men with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, highlighting the need to consider this diagnosis for male patients with vertex hair loss and scalp symptoms.

In this study, topical CUR61414 was effective in inhibiting basal cell carcinomas in mice, but no clinical activity was observed in human trials.

This article describes a 9-year-old girl with whitish granules on her hair, evaluated in a dermatology clinic, but the abstract does not report a diagnosis or new results.

This study found that inactivating CerS4 in mice led to hair follicle stem cell exhaustion and hair loss, indicating its role in regulating hair regeneration through ceramide composition and signaling pathways.

CCCA affects Black men too, with a genetic link found in the PADI3 gene.

In this study, patients with severe alopecia areata who were treated with baricitinib 4 mg/day for 48 weeks showed significant improvements in both hair regrowth and nail abnormalities, although the correlation between hair and nail improvement was weak.

This study found that in AGA, the risk allele at locus 2q35 alters WNT10A expression through EBF1, suggesting a potential androgen-dependent regulatory mechanism.

This study found that a new clinic-based modified hair fall count method is a valid tool for assessing hair loss in women, showing strong association and high precision compared to the conventional home-based method.
