This review found that the clinical results of L-PRF as a grafting material in maxillary sinus augmentation were mixed, with some studies reporting positive effects and others finding no significant impact.

This study found that PLGA nanospheres improved scalp-pore permeability and enhanced hair growth activities in mice, suggesting their potential as drug delivery carriers for hair growth ingredients.

This review discusses recent advances in trichoscopy for differentiating types of alopecia and presents a systematic approach for using its diagnostic findings, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that overexpression of Hoxc13 in GC13 mouse models affects hair follicle differentiation by interacting with medulla-specific genes, particularly Foxq1, suggesting a regulatory pathway for medulla differentiation.

This review discusses the benefits and drawbacks of low-level laser therapy for various non-surgical conditions based on existing literature, but reports no new clinical findings and suggests further research is needed.

This study found that male pattern baldness in European males is strongly heritable and associated with genetic markers linked to earlier puberty, bone density, and pancreatic function.

This study suggests that sexual dimorphism in adipose tissue functions may be linked to androgen levels, as women with PCOS demonstrated a more masculine adipokine expression pattern.

This review discusses the use of antimüllerian hormone as a marker of ovarian reserve in infertility diagnosis and treatment, noting it reflects oocyte quantity but not health or pregnancy likelihood.

This study suggests that melatonin may have a radioprotective role against X-ray-induced skin damage in rats, as evidenced by milder injury markers in pretreated animals.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly lower serum zinc levels, which correlated inversely with disease severity, duration, and resistance to therapies, suggesting zinc assessment as a marker of disease status.

This study found that Wnt secretion is important for maintaining skin homeostasis in mice, as Evi-deficient mice developed psoriasis-like skin lesions and had an imbalance in immune cell populations.

In this cell study, Eclipta alba extract inhibited cancer cell proliferation and induced apoptosis, showing potential antiproliferative and anti-metastasis effects on liver and related cancer cell lines.

This study found that treatment with ritlecitinib improved hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients, with many achieving significant results after 24 weeks compared to placebo.

This study found that a genetic test using 5 to 20 SNPs can predict male pattern baldness with variable accuracy in European men, especially those aged 50 and older.

In this study, subdermal platelet-rich plasma injections significantly increased hair count and shaft caliber in individuals with androgenetic alopecia, with monthly treatments potentially offering greater benefits.

This review discusses the mechanisms and targets of natural products for treating nonhealing wounds and reports no new experimental results, highlighting potential pathways and cytokines involved.

This review discusses diagnostic and treatment considerations for women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism, noting therapeutic options are more effective for hirsutism and acne than for androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that long-term use of finasteride in Japanese men with androgenetic alopecia was associated with progressive hair regrowth in 87.1% of participants without significant safety concerns.

This study suggests that daughters of women with PCOS may have altered androgen metabolism in early childhood, with increased 5α-reductase activity potentially contributing to PCOS development.

This paper suggests that coating hair with drug-loaded nanotubes may offer durable drug delivery and color applications, with potential for both human and veterinary uses.

In this study, individuals reported a decrease in dermatologist visits for hair and scalp conditions like telogen effluvium and alopecia areata during COVID-19 quarantine, despite increased occurrences.

This cross-sectional survey study found that stigmatizing attitudes toward people with alopecia are present in various social and professional settings, with stigma levels varying by alopecia severity and perceptions of its medical nature.

This article discusses isotretinoin for severe acne vulgaris, noting its effectiveness but also highlighting significant side effects on skin, mucous membranes, and hair; it reports no new clinical results.

The researchers reported that the rat Hershberger assay reliably detected endocrine-disrupting effects of finasteride, procymidone, and 17α-methyltestosterone, validating the assay's sensitivity for identifying hormonal activity.

This study observed that hairless rat skin was more permeable to mannitol and progesterone than hairy rat skin, indicating that follicular structures significantly impact percutaneous absorption.

This study suggests that the keratins found in reptile and bird skin appendages evolved independently from mammalian hair keratins, highlighting convergent evolution in these species.

This study found that specific DNA variants in the TCHH, WNT10A, and FRAS1 genes are associated with predicting straight hair in Europeans, showing high sensitivity but low specificity, especially using a neural networks approach.

This study found that vitamin D receptor activation in primary keratinocytes can occur independently of the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₃ ligand, likely through interaction with retinoid X receptors.

This study found that sexual and erectile function in men taking finasteride 1 mg did not significantly differ from age-matched controls, suggesting sexual side effects may be less common than previously reported.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have significantly higher scores for affective temperaments and anxiety and depression than healthy controls, suggesting risk for depressive and anxiety disorders.
