This review explores the relationship between androgenetic alopecia and metabolic syndrome, suggesting an association that supports considering cardiovascular risk assessments in patients with this type of hair loss.

This review examines the debated link between iron deficiency and nonscarring scalp alopecia in women, offering no new clinical results but emphasizing the need for further research and well-designed trials.

In this study, researchers observed that keratoacanthoma exhibits dynamic follicular differentiation throughout its stages, with changes in specific keratin expressions, and regressed lesions showing epidermal rather than follicular characteristics.

This article reviews the association between hepatitis C virus and systemic disorders like mixed cryoglobulinemia, highlighting potential autoimmune side effects from interferon-a2b treatments, and reports no new clinical results.

The authors report a case where alopecia areata went into remission after H. pylori eradication, suggesting a potential link that could expand treatment options if further studies confirm it.

This study found that patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia had lower epidermal melanocyte counts and reduced epidermal thickness compared to lichen planopilaris patients and controls, suggesting a link with hypopigmentation.

This review explores potential new roles for Merkel cells, including involvement in magnetoreception, fingerprint formation, and transmitting environmental information, but reports no experimental results.

This study found that Erica multiflora extract promotes hair growth by enhancing dermal papilla cell activity and shifting hair follicles from the telogen to the anagen phase in both in vitro and in vivo models.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with segmental vitiligo and lichen sclerosus in the perineal region, where treatment with clobetasol ointment improved repigmentation and resolved many symptoms, although some scaling persisted.

This review discusses the diagnosis and treatment of iron deficiency, its potential link to hair loss, and emphasizes the importance for dermatologists to understand these aspects; it reports no new findings.

Atorvastatin may cause hair loss in some people.

Lichen planopilaris may be linked to autoimmune thyroiditis.

This study found that telomere shortening disrupts BMP/pSmad/P63 signaling, leading to skin atrophy via Follistatin up-regulation, and suggests potential therapeutic targets.

Fibroblasts are crucial in scar formation and wound healing, with potential therapies aiming for scarless healing.

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

This case analysis suggests that while dental foci may rarely contribute to alopecia areata, confirming this link requires observing full recovery after removing the dental cause.

This study found no significant association between androgenetic alopecia and metabolic syndrome, though systolic blood pressure was higher in the alopecia group compared to controls.

This review discusses the role of vitamin D metabolism in skin immunity and wound healing but does not present new results, highlighting the need for further research into its therapeutic applications.

This article reviews milestones in understanding psychosomatic factors in dermatology and outlines clinical criteria for identifying them, but it presents no new research data.

This study observed that the active metabolite minoxidil sulfate promotes vascular relaxation by enhancing potassium permeability, which may inform understanding of minoxidil's antihypertensive and hair growth effects.

In this study, feeding albino mice various doses of Acanthospermum hispidum shoots and seeds caused toxicity and death within 9 to 172 days.

This study found that exogenous glutamic acid can promote hair growth and keratinocyte proliferation, suggesting a novel signalling pathway in the skin.

This study found an association between hydroxyl radical-modified SOD and alopecia areata, suggesting these modifications may lead to antibody induction in the condition.

This historical observation found that parathyroid extract treatment in newborn rats led to a condition resembling scleroderma, characterized by skin hardening, calcium deposition, and possible necrosis.

In this study, oral collagen peptides increased certain gene expressions related to epidermis development and the hair cycle in hairless mice skin, suggesting potential links to hair health.

This article discusses a proposed molecular mechanism linking dietary factors to acne but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, human dermal stem/progenitor cell-derived conditioned medium was found to promote hair regrowth in mice, possibly through effects on the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This case report suggests that lamotrigine treatment may be associated with hair loss as a rare side effect, based on the observation of hair regrowth after discontinuation of the drug in a single patient.

This study found that Malassezia carriage was significantly more common among participants experiencing hair shedding, suggesting a potential link between this fungal presence and hair loss.
