This paper reports a case of alopecia triangularis congenita in a 22-year-old woman, combined with androgenetic alopecia, and highlights successful treatment with internal and topical antiandrogens.

In this study, the ChatGPT-5 model accurately answered 76.47% of questions on the Polish endocrinology specialty exam, surpassing the 60% passing threshold, yet its role in clinical decision-making remains uncertain, highlighting the need for further research.

This study found that all four evaluated large language models generated a significant proportion of inappropriate responses when prompted with or without LGBTQIA+ identity terms, with more severe bias observed in prompts mentioning LGBTQIA+ identities.

This review highlights that although mangiferin, a polyphenol from the mango tree, faces challenges like low solubility and bioavailability, delivery vehicles such as nanoparticles and complexes have the potential to enhance its therapeutic effectiveness in treating various diseases.

This systematic review found that PCOS is a leading cause of anovulatory infertility, accounting for 70% of such cases, and emphasized the importance of using ultrasound for diagnosis.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia showed distinct scalp bacterial imbalances compared to healthy individuals, which were associated with unhealthy lifestyles. These microbial changes might contribute to follicular inflammation, potentially accelerating hair loss in these patients.

This review synthesizes both traditional and emerging molecular mechanisms of tissue remodeling across different organs, aiming to establish a theoretical basis for precision interventions in pathological conditions, according to the authors.

This review reports that nutritional and lifestyle factors, such as micronutrient deficiencies and stress, play a significant role in hair health and loss, but emphasizes that evidence for interventions remains limited and more research is needed to establish clear clinical guidelines.

This review highlights the various causes and treatment options for alopecia, noting that while non-scarring types often see successful hair regrowth, scarring forms require early intervention to manage inflammatory destruction of hair follicles.

This review provides a comprehensive synthesis of skin aging research, highlighting the interplay of genetic and environmental factors, cellular mechanisms, and advances in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, while also addressing current debates and future directions in the anti-aging field.

This source provides medical information intended solely for licensed professionals and emphasizes that it is not a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment decisions, which remain the responsibility of treating physicians.

This study identified a higher basal metabolic rate as an independent and causally relevant risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in the Chinese population, noting that sex-specific effects may require tailored management strategies.

This review highlights the potential of wedelolactone from the plant Wedelia Chinensis, summarizing its reported pharmacological effects, including anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antitumor, anti-osteoporosis activities, and organ protection based on existing in vitro and in vivo research findings.

This review identified evidence gaps in NHIRD, emphasizing the lack of validated diagnostic criteria and the need for further research on ocular and systemic comorbidities associated with AA to enhance patient care and treatment strategies.

This review discusses the combined use of plum-blossom and Daoma needle therapy for androgenic alopecia, emphasizing its potential benefits and the need for further clinical research, but reports no new results.

This review explores the potential of mesenchymal stem cells in skin regeneration and rejuvenation, highlighting their ability to modulate immune response and enhance extracellular matrix strength but does not provide new clinical evidence.

This review found that hydrolyzed collagen supplementation, particularly marine collagen, improves skin hydration, elasticity, and density while strengthening hair and nails, especially when paired with vitamin C and trace elements; however, more studies are necessary to evaluate long-term efficacy across different sources and demographics.

In this study, retrospective analysis of patients with severe alopecia areata showed that oral JAK inhibitors, tofacitinib and baricitinib, reduced hair loss significantly, with comparable effectiveness; longer tofacitinib use was linked to greater improvement, while baricitinib achieved substantial outcomes quickly.

This source critically examines Bruce Ames's influential contributions to biochemistry, particularly his theories on oxidative stress and mitochondrial DNA damage in aging, while acknowledging current challenges to his work and highlighting his lasting impact on the fields of mutagen screening and public health.

This review discusses polycystic ovary syndrome, focusing on its primary features of ovulatory dysfunction and hyperandrogenism, and reports no new findings.

This research highlights selenium's critical roles in various biological processes and underscores the potential health impacts of both its deficiency and excess, including increased mortality risk, poor immune function, and neurological issues.

This study utilized a mouse model of traumatic brain injury to reveal that acute neurotrauma triggers widespread lipid metabolism reprogramming and storage lipid accumulation in microglial and monocyte populations, leading to lysosomal dysfunction, inhibited autophagy, and exacerbated inflammation through a pathological feedback loop.

This review explores treatment options for HS in the US and identifies how social disparities impact access to care, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This meta-analysis found that patients with alopecia areata, particularly those with more extensive forms like alopecia totalis and universalis, may face a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, though no links were found with specific conditions like ischemic stroke or myocardial infarction.

In this study, researchers identified six novel prognostic biomarkers for bladder cancer and developed a predictive model that effectively stratifies patients into high-risk and low-risk groups based on immune cell infiltration differences and gene expression.

In this study, undergraduate students were surveyed about hair loss, finding a 39.2% prevalence, mostly mild, with significant risk factors including female gender, family history, scalp conditions, sleep disorders, and depression.

This thesis investigates the underlying mechanisms and treatment options for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the molecular roles of androgens and genetic predispositions, and evaluates current and emerging therapies, such as PROTACs and Janus Kinase inhibitors, to enhance patient management.

In this review, researchers evaluated 111 studies on the biological activities and phytochemical components of the plant Tridax procumbens, emphasizing its ethnobotanical potential and the need for more research to understand its therapeutic benefits, especially in its native tropical regions.

In this study, human gingival mesenchymal stem cells responded differently to inflammation mediated by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) compared to cytokines; oxLDL significantly reduced cell proliferation but had less negative impact on differentiation characteristics.

This study found that in Saudi female medical students, dermatological features like acanthosis nigricans and skin tags, as well as polycystic ovary syndrome, are associated with increased waist circumference, an indicator of insulin resistance.
