This genome-wide association study identified 71 genetic loci linked to male pattern baldness, with 30 novel loci, explaining 38% of the risk and suggesting shared pathways with lifespan and cancer traits.

This review discusses the role of androgens in women's skin-related conditions like acne, hirsutism, and female pattern hair loss, noting the lack of dermatology guidelines for when to pursue endocrinologic evaluation.

This review discusses possible medication-induced hair loss and the need to exclude other confounding factors like stress and illness; it reports no new clinical findings and emphasizes careful assessment before attributing hair loss to medications.

This article reviews therapy-related hair disorders in oncology patients, detailing underlying mechanisms and potential management strategies, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that the hairless gene in mice has a more extensive role in development than previously thought, as indicated by its expression in various tissues and associated abnormalities in hr/hr mutants.

This study found that ablating centrosomes in developing epidermis alters keratinocyte division without majorly affecting differentiation, suggesting early epidermal development is driven by high proliferation and cell delamination.

This review discusses characteristics of androgenetic alopecia in Asian patients and includes algorithmic management guidelines, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article proposes two new categories of cicatricial alopecia—“unstable” and “stable”—and suggests surgical excision as preferred over hair transplantation, especially for unstable cases.

This study found that long-term weekly administration of docetaxel is feasible at doses up to 45 mg/m² per week with acceptable toxicity, and suggests further evaluation with 40 mg/m² for phase II studies.

This review discusses the role of CYP gene polymorphisms in exacerbating hyperandrogenism in women with PCOS and reports no clinical results; further validation of this hypothesis is needed.

This review discusses various pediatric hair loss conditions and treatments, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach and noting that no single treatment is universally effective.

This review summarizes the application of microneedles in treating various skin diseases and highlights challenges like low drug loading, noting no new clinical results are reported.

This review explores genetic and lifestyle factors influencing hair diversity and reports no new findings, calling attention to the potential for future discoveries in genetic and epigenetic research.

This article reviews the generation of complex integument patterns through genetic, chemical, and environmental influences, with applications in tissue engineering, but reports no new experimental results.

This article reviews fetal scalp hair formation and related disorders but reports no new research results.

This review discusses the use of platelet-rich plasma as a treatment for androgenetic alopecia and highlights the need for standardized protocols, reporting no new clinical results.

To diagnose Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, two out of three signs—irregular periods, high male hormone levels, or cysts on the ovaries—are needed.

This review provides a framework for diagnosing acquired scalp alopecias and discusses both non-scarring and scarring types, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses female androgenetic alopecia, highlighting its diagnostic challenges and management strategies, but it reports no new results.

This study found that long-term flutamide treatment reduced hair loss in women with female pattern hair loss, but liver-related dropouts were minimized at a very low dose of 62.5 mg/day.

This review discusses current medical and surgical treatments for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the use of finasteride and minoxidil for men and the role of hair transplantation techniques, without providing new clinical results.

This article outlines management guidelines for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting that continued treatment with medications like finasteride or minoxidil typically halts progression and improves hair condition in most mild to moderate cases.

This review describes an improved scalp reduction technique that removes two to three times more bald skin than previous methods, utilizing wide undermining, serial relaxing incisions, and adrenocorticosteroids.

This review explores how colloidal drug delivery systems can enhance the stability, absorption, and bioavailability of phytochemicals, potentially rediscovering ancient compounds' therapeutic benefits and overcoming limitations like poor solubility and bioavailability.

This review provides a practical approach to diagnosing pseudopelade of Brocq and updates on treatment options but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews various topics discussed at a workshop on hair disorders, focusing on hair biology, diagnosis, and challenges in therapy evaluation, without presenting new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers found that the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia was higher in their sample compared to other studies in Asian and Caucasian populations, and it was linked with age-related severity.

This review discusses the mechanisms and treatment strategies for age-related hair changes, such as androgenetic alopecia and hair graying, and reports no new clinical results.

This article updates Japanese guidelines for diagnosing and treating male and female-pattern hair loss, recommending specific drugs and therapies while advising against certain treatments for female-pattern hair loss.

This review found evidence supporting the effectiveness and safety of topical minoxidil for treating female pattern hair loss, though many included studies were at high risk of bias.
