This review discusses hirsutism management guidelines, recommending androgen testing only for women with abnormal hirsutism scores and advocating for combined therapy approaches depending on severity and underlying conditions, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the historical developments in understanding and treating male pattern hair loss, emphasizing the role of dihydrotestosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study supports the traditional use of T. procumbens for diabetes treatment, showing improvements in body weight and glucose tolerance with no toxicity signs in normal rats.

This study observed that autologous platelet-rich plasma treatment improved hair count and density in areas with androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo, with differing outcomes based on the PRP collection device used.

In this study, the researchers found that alopecia in VDR null mice is likely due to issues with hair cycle initiation rather than defects in keratinocyte proliferation or differentiation.

In this study, researchers discovered that several compounds, including brequinar and 6-azauridine, exhibit significant anti-Zika virus activity using a high-throughput screen assay.

In this study, 0.5%-1.0% anthralin cream led to a cosmetic response in 25% of patients with severe alopecia areata, despite common side effects like pruritus and erythema.

This article discusses the history taking and clinical examination process for diagnosing alopecia and outlines a diagnostic approach, noting that it reports no new clinical results.

The eucalyptus oil system improved skin delivery of hormones, but safety concerns remain.

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 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 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 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.

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.

This study demonstrated that Stellaria media extract may enhance wound healing in vitro by promoting cell migration and proliferation, with notable antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.

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.

In this study, treatment with 1 mg of finasteride was associated with stable sexual function, suggesting that sexual side effects may be less common than indicated in clinical trials.

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.

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 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 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.
