This study found that prenatal exposure to androgens caused long-lasting heart remodeling and left ventricular hypertrophy in female mice offspring, suggesting potential cardiac risks for daughters of mothers with PCOS.

This study found distinct gene expression patterns in the blood of alopecia areata patients, suggesting involvement of immune processes and new pathways like Wnt signaling and apoptosis in disease pathogenesis.

In this study, male-pattern baldness was strongly associated with a higher risk of keratinocyte cancers, particularly squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma, likely due to increased sun exposure on the scalp rather than androgen levels.

This study found that fasting insulin levels are associated with increased cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Platelet-rich plasma therapy helps improve atrophic acne scars.

This review discusses the role of inheritance, androgens, and microinflammation in androgenetic alopecia and suggests some plant-based folk remedies may help address these factors but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers observed that a noncanonical mechanism involving the γ-secretase-dependent, RBPj-independent Notch intracellular domain improves survival in Msx2-Cre mice by delaying hair follicle destruction and reducing disease severity.

This study found that trichodynia is associated with both peripheral and central sensitization, potentially linked to hair cycle abnormalities and chronic pain through proinflammatory agents.

This case series describes six women with both PCOS and Graves' disease, suggesting a possible shared underlying cause for their co-occurrence.

This study identified 77 genes with significant expression changes in expanded human skin, suggesting possible mechanisms for skin regeneration during tissue expansion, including previously unreported genes like HOXA5, HOXB2, and AP1.

This study found that a combined pattern of repigmentation was most commonly observed in vitiligo, with a new 'medium spotted' pattern proposed for areas with few hair follicles.

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.

This study found that in men with sexual dysfunction, use of 5ARI may reduce sexual drive and spontaneous erections without worsening pre-existing erectile or ejaculatory issues.

This study found that coloring white facial hair is an effective and feasible adjunct to intense pulsed light therapy for hair removal, with similar efficacy between using black eyeliner and black hair dye.

This study reported that pulverizing hair samples significantly improves the precision of testosterone measurement, with higher testosterone concentrations observed in men than in women.

This review discusses the nocebo effect in dermatology, highlighting its mechanisms, implications, and strategies to manage it, but does not provide new clinical research findings.

This study found that dutasteride more effectively inhibited androgen receptor signaling and reduced cell growth compared to finasteride in prostate cancer cell models, with varying sensitivities across different cell lines.

This study found that combining plasma rich in growth factors with conventional treatment significantly improved hair regrowth and reduced symptoms in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia compared to conventional treatment alone.

This study found that genetic polymorphisms of OCT1 influence the effectiveness of metformin treatment in improving insulin sensitivity among PCOS patients, suggesting a role for personalized treatment strategies.

This study evaluated the effects of tip cryotherapy on idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis lesions, finding that 82.3% of treated lesions showed significant improvement after four months compared to only 2% of control lesions, with minimal side effects.

This review summarizes evidence indicating that body image issues in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus should be addressed with the same importance as physical symptoms like pain and disability.

This study suggests that mammalian hair follicles may serve as a viable and non-invasive system for diagnosing traumatic brain injury, reflecting similar molecular responses observed in other tissues.

This study found no significant association between vitamin D levels and alopecia areata in patients when gender was accounted for, but vitamin D levels were lower in patients with nail involvement.

In this study, children with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia were found to have increased epicardial fat thickness, which was associated with subclinical atherosclerosis markers and left ventricular dysfunction, especially in poorly controlled cases.

This study identified a new subtype of lichen planopilaris that mimics androgenetic alopecia, selectively affecting vellus hair follicles and presenting unique histopathological features.

This study reported that heterozygous carriers of a mutation in the human hairless gene did not differ from healthy homozygotes in the pattern of androgenetic alopecia.

This study reported that administering salicylates to wounds in adult mice promoted wound healing patterns similar to embryonic wounds, enabling complete wound regeneration and reduced scarring by activating AMPK and subsequent signaling pathways.

This study found that healthcare workers with a positive SARS-CoV-2 nasopharyngeal swab were most likely to report long-COVID symptoms, while seropositive workers without a positive swab had milder symptoms.

This study found that sampling hair for cortisol analysis in mother-toddler dyads living in low-income U.S. homes is feasible, with 66% of approached dyads participating.

This study reports that patients with androgenetic alopecia had lower quality of life scores across all measured domains compared to controls, with disease severity worsening the impact, particularly socially for those under 30.
