This study found that in male androgenetic alopecia, the contrast enhanced phototrichogram technique was superior in detecting changes in hair density and thickness compared to other methods.

This study found that subcutaneous injections of guanethidine or 6-hydroxydopamine induced premature hair growth in mice, suggesting a role for sympathetic nerves in hair growth control.

This review found that while topical minoxidil is effective for treating female pattern hair loss, finasteride showed no more effectiveness than placebo, and low-level laser therapy increased hair count but with inconsistent results.

This article reviews various causes and investigative techniques for different forms of alopecia and reports no new findings.

This study found that combining micro-needling, low-level laser therapy, and autologous non-activated platelet-rich plasma increased hair density in patients with androgenic alopecia over the treatment period.

This study developed a portable electrospinning device that mimics hair for cosmetic thickening in a mouse model, showing performance comparable to benchtop models with added safety and cost benefits.

In this study, treatment with finasteride 1 mg/day for five years significantly reduced the likelihood of further visible hair loss in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo.

This study found that Sargassum muticum extract and apo-9′-fucoxanthinone promoted hair growth in rat and mouse models by increasing dermal papilla cell proliferation and activating certain signaling pathways.

Dermoscopy is a good, noninvasive way to see normal cat skin structures and could be useful for check-ups.

This study found that the alcoholic extract of Eclipta alba exhibited dose-dependent antianaphylactic effects in animal models, possibly due to membrane stabilization and reduced histamine release.

In this study, amitraz was found to be an effective and well-tolerated treatment for resolving sarcoptic mange in alpacas, demonstrating no relapse over a 10-month follow-up.

This study found that transplanting GFP transgenic tail skin onto wild-type mice leads to partial replacement of dermis, nerves, and blood vessels by recipient tissue after six months, while epidermis, hair follicles, and sebaceous glands persist from the graft.

This study found that various petroleum distillates caused significant skin changes in mice, with severity varying based on the product and penetration pathway, potentially leading to skin tumors through non-genotoxic mechanisms in longer-term exposure.

The researchers found that HOXC13 regulates different keratin proteins in a mixed manner, with certain SNPs impeding this regulation, while also demonstrating negative-feedback by HOXC13 and positive regulation by LEF1 and melatonin on the HOXC13 promoter.

This study found that neural crest-derived hair follicle cells in mice can differentiate into osteoblast-like cells, suggesting a potential application for bone regenerative therapies.

This article provides a guide for surgeons on repairing poorly executed hair transplants, emphasizing meticulous techniques and optimal use of limited hair supply to achieve cosmetic improvements.

Among Australian fur seals at one colony, this study found that alopecia, primarily affecting juvenile females, is linked to hair shaft fractures associated with low tyrosine and zinc levels, as well as higher pollutant exposure.

This study found that a 2% polyherbal phyto-complex cream containing aqueous extracts of Trichosanthes cucumerina and Abrus precatorius effectively promoted hair growth in preclinical tests, comparable to minoxidil 2%.

This article discusses the principles and considerations of clinical photography for hair disorders in dermatology, reporting no new clinical findings.

This article discusses misconceptions around mineral nutrition in beef cattle and emphasizes that sub-clinical deficiencies or toxicities, rather than overt symptoms, often cause economic losses, but it reports no new findings.

People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.

This study indicates that hair analyses for calcium and phosphorus are unlikely to be useful for assessing the nutritional status of horses, suggesting soil and feed analyses as more effective alternatives.

This review article summarizes the potential role of advanced medical therapies—using genes, cells, and/or tissue engineering—in treating various types of alopecia, by examining clinical research, basic studies, and ongoing trials.

This study found that dermis micrografting improved hair growth and density in patients with androgenetic alopecia over 4, 6, and 12 months, suggesting it could be a novel treatment option.

This study found no improvement in male-pattern hair loss after six months of using laser hair-comb therapy in two men.

This case report describes a 3-year-old male with X-linked ichthyosis and associated neurologic abnormalities, identifying an unusual cortical development malformation and suggesting that abnormal hair banding may assist diagnosis.

Minoxidil effectively promotes hair regrowth in younger patients with small balding areas.

This report identified longitudinal grooves in the hair shafts of four children, diagnosing them with uncombable-hair syndrome.

The study observed that Friesian heifers experienced significant adaptation challenges to Kenya's equatorial conditions, taking around 18 months for their coat composition to resemble that of Dutch heifers in summer.

This study reviewed clinical trials and found that low-level laser therapy significantly increased hair diameter or density in both men and women with pattern hair loss compared to a sham device, though the involvement of industry relationships in some studies suggests cautious interpretation.
