In this study, the researchers identified a variant in the CCHCR1 gene associated with an alopecia areata subtype characterized by impaired keratinization and autoimmune events.

This review discusses hairstyling trends and health risks among Black women, noting that natural styles have the fewest adverse associations, though challenges remain in society's acceptance.

This case report describes a patient in whom vitiligo was induced by diphenylcyclopropenone treatment for alopecia universalis, highlighting the potential overlap of susceptibility genes between the two conditions.

This study observed that ethnic Indian women with PCOS often experience early symptom onset, delays in diagnosis, and report poor quality of life, highlighting the need for culturally tailored healthcare approaches.

This study found significant racial and ethnic disparities in the incidence and psychological impact of chemotherapy-related alopecia, with Asian women experiencing the greatest burden, highlighting the need for personalized and culturally sensitive care.

Among a Han Chinese cohort, this study found that a higher genetic risk score was linked to increased susceptibility to BPH, larger prostate size, reduced effectiveness of 5ARI treatment, and a higher risk of undergoing TURP.

This study found that ACE2 and TMPRSS2 genes were more highly expressed in tumors of elderly male cancer patients compared to healthy individuals, with notable differences across age and gender.

In this genetic study, the researchers found that variants in the CLEC4D gene are significantly associated with the development of alopecia areata among individuals in the Jordanian population, pointing to a potential genetic influence on the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that the TLR3 L412F genetic variant is associated with severe viral infections, especially CMV, and immune dysfunction in a subgroup of chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis patients.

This study found that prostate size varies significantly among different ethnic groups in South-Kivu, with the Lega having larger prostate volumes compared to other groups.

This study established a causal link between plasma metabolism and alopecia areata, providing insights into the disorder's mechanisms and suggesting directions for future screening and prevention strategies.

In this study, the authors reported that certain SNPs on chromosome 20 were associated with androgenetic alopecia in the ethnic Han population of Yunnan, with specific alleles linked to higher likelihood of developing the condition.

In this study, researchers found that differences between self-ratings and assessor ratings of facial appearance vary by age and ethnicity, and these discrepancies, along with assessor ratings of skin features, are predictive of menopausal status across ethnic groups.

This study reviews the biology and cosmetic treatment of hair, emphasizing future advancements in safer, more effective procedures to meet consumer needs for hair care.

Keratinocyte cytokines and genetic variations influence the development of moles and skin pigmentation.

This study suggests that androgenetic alopecia may increase the risk of developing depression, but depression does not significantly contribute to the onset of androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses genetic factors contributing to susceptibility and outcomes in COVID-19, including ACE, ACE2, TMPRSS2 variants, HLA genotype, and ABO blood group, but reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that variations in PCOS phenotypes observed across different ethnic groups may be due to a genetic gradient resulting from historical human migrations and genetic drift.

This study reports that specific hair care practices common among individuals with high-curl-pattern hair could exacerbate seborrheic dermatitis, presenting significant treatment challenges and psychological impacts, and emphasizes the need for further research to tailor culturally sensitive solutions.

This article explores how narratives around racial and ethnic minorities versus fat individuals during the Covid-19 pandemic influenced the framing of these groups as "at-risk," with disparities in blame and responsibility linked to structural racism and anti-obesity rhetoric.

This study found that certain Y-chromosome alleles may influence susceptibility to prostate cancer among Iraqi males, suggesting potential genetic screening markers for the disease.

This study found that specific Y-chromosome alleles may influence susceptibility to prostate cancer in Iraqi males, suggesting their potential use in screening for the disease.

In this study, researchers found no significant association between VDR gene polymorphisms and the susceptibility to alopecia areata, suggesting that these genetic variations may not play a role in the disease's development.

This study investigated genetic markers for alopecia areata in the Turkish population, finding that the CT60 polymorphism might be linked to increased susceptibility, while no such association was found for the +49AG polymorphism; further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

This review discusses the role of oxidative stress in hair greying and suggests that understanding melanocyte susceptibility at different follicular locations may help develop therapies for preventing and reversing the process; it reports no new experimental results.

This article reviews the causes and clinical presentation of pseudofolliculitis barbae, highlighting how genetic susceptibility and hair removal practices contribute to its development, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that African American men with prostate cancer have higher rates of somatic and germline androgen receptor mutations than Caucasian American men, which may contribute to ethnic differences in disease progression and outcomes.
