June 2025 in “OPAL (Open@LaTrobe) (La Trobe University)” This systematic review and meta-analysis found that oral minoxidil may improve hair loss symptoms, with 35% of patients experiencing significant symptom improvement, but further research is needed to confirm its efficacy and safety, especially at doses exceeding 1 mg.
June 2025 in “Frontiers in Pharmacology” This systematic review and meta-analysis found that oral minoxidil improved hair loss symptoms in many patients, with significant improvement in 35%, but 27% experienced adverse events, highlighting the need for further research to confirm its safety and efficacy.
This study observed that public interest in JAK-inhibitor treatments for alopecia areata significantly increased around the FDA approval in 2022 and heightened media coverage, suggesting an important role for patient education about these treatments.
September 2024 in “Alcohol and Alcoholism” This study suggests that alcohol consumption may have a less significant impact on androgenetic alopecia than previously thought, with odds ratios above 1.0 but not conclusively strong.
September 2024 in “Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology” This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia in transgender men undergoing testosterone therapy, noting that such hormone treatment can lead to dermatological issues that significantly affect their quality of life. Results are not reported in the abstract.
January 2024 in “Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation” This meta-analysis reported no significant differences in vocal alterations and quality of life between women with PCOS and control groups, yet emphasized that the findings are limited by a lack of high-quality studies, suggesting further research is needed.
