Raspberry ketone may help grow hair and improve skin elasticity.

This meta-analysis found that vertex pattern androgenetic alopecia was associated with an increased risk of developing prostate cancer, while other androgenetic alopecia patterns did not show a significant link.

In this study, PRP increased hair density in areas treated for androgenetic alopecia, but there was no significant difference when compared to placebo-treated areas.

In this study, DHT was found to inhibit hair growth in mice by decreasing IGF-I production in dermal papillae through reduced sensory neuron stimulation.

This systematic review reports that for patients with underlying dermatologic disorders who contracted COVID-19, most experienced mild to moderate exacerbation of their skin conditions and were managed similarly to the general population, suggesting treatment discontinuation during acute infection may prevent severe recurrence.

This report describes two patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia who developed acute hair loss on their limbs, revealing that the limb alopecia had similar histological features to scalp alopecia.

This review reports no new clinical results but discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution as a distinct scarring alopecia with characteristics of both androgenetic alopecia and lichen planopilaris.

This study found that gonadal steroid hormones influence alopecia areata in C3H/HeJ mice, with estradiol promoting progression and dihydrotestosterone conferring resistance to disease onset.

This article reviews potential causes and treatments for sensitive skin and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize neurogenic inflammation and cosmetic choices as key factors in managing the condition.

This case report suggests a possible association between long-term finasteride use for male pattern baldness and the development of cataracts and intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome in a patient.

This study identified that rose, thyme geraniol, palmarosa, and tolu balsam essential oils activate TRPV1, with citronellol and geraniol as newly recognized agonists.

This article reviews studies on thyroid influence on hair growth, noting varied results, including accelerated growth in some normal and underfed rats after thyroid administration, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that hair regrowth occurred in 72.2% of alopecia areata patients treated with diphencyprone, with disease extent at baseline and duration affecting outcomes.

This study observed that patients with rapidly progressive alopecia areata may have a favorable prognosis regardless of treatment, and regenerated vellus hairs were linked to higher improvement or cure rates.

This study developed lipid-core nanocapsules for encapsulating menthol, improving its solubility and thermal stability, and demonstrated their safety and rapid skin absorption in ex vivo tests, highlighting potential applications for cosmeceuticals.

This article describes a potential novel approach to reduce chemotherapy-induced hair loss by enhancing the expression of specific transporters in hair follicles, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that using very-low-dose oral minoxidil (0.25 mg/d) led to improvement or stabilization of hair parameters in 40% to 60% of men with androgenetic alopecia, although results were not statistically significant for the overall group.

This review discusses the generation of germ cell-like cells from skin-derived stem cells and reports no new results; the potential for these cells to produce viable progeny remains unclear.

The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.
