In this study, among 50 patients with premature hair graying, the combination of biotin, zinc, and calcium pantothenate showed no significant efficacy in treating the condition, and the researchers observed associations with other disorders such as anemia, alopecia areata, thyroid disorder, and vitiligo.

This review discusses the efficacy and safety of topical JAK inhibitors for inflammatory skin conditions, reporting modest benefits in psoriasis and atopic dermatitis but mixed results for vitiligo and inconclusive data for alopecia areata.

This study found that pediatric HSCT recipients, especially those with chronic graft-versus-host disease, are at risk for developing various nonmalignant late cutaneous changes such as vitiligo, psoriasis, alopecia, and nail changes.

Recent hair loss research shows some progress, especially in understanding male pattern baldness, but effective treatments for many types of hair loss are still lacking.

This narrative review found a strong association between alopecia areata and autoimmune thyroid diseases, suggesting routine thyroid function and autoantibody screening could be beneficial for certain patients with extensive, recurrent, or early-onset alopecia areata.

This study observed that frontal fibrosing alopecia is increasingly diagnosed in Italian Caucasian females, often showing premenopausal onset and eyebrow alopecia as an early sign.

This article reviews the cutaneous side effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapies for skin cancers, noting that while generally mild, these effects can influence treatment decisions and quality of life, underscoring the need for physicians to be aware of these adverse reactions.
