This study found that in transgenic mice overexpressing a mutant hairless gene, changes in its expression affected hair loss and regrowth, implicating the gene's role in hair follicle biology.

This report describes a case of HAIR-AN syndrome in a young woman, characterized by acanthosis nigricans, insulin resistance, and polycystic ovaries, highlighting its rarity and multisystem nature.

This study reports that a prototype device may accurately measure changes in hair quantity, diameter, and density in patients with balding by assessing the cross-sectional area of hair bundles.

This article proposes a standardized naming system for areas of the balding scalp to improve communication among hair restoration professionals, but it reports no clinical results.

This study found that the newly developed microarray patches for intradermal delivery of finasteride showed high drug content and significantly improved skin deposition compared to existing methods.

This study demonstrates that bioengineered salivary gland transplants can fully regenerate gland function, producing saliva and restoring normal swallowing in salivary gland-defective mice, offering potential for xerostomia treatment.

In this study, a new shading model for hair was developed that better matches real-life light scattering, thanks to detailed new measurements of hair fiber scattering not predicted by existing models.

This study introduced a new hair shading model that more accurately simulates light scattering on hair fibers, capturing effects not predicted by previous models.

This study found that Brg1, a chromatin-remodeling enzyme, plays a critical role in hair regeneration and early epidermal repair by regulating bulge stem cells through a Brg1-Shh interaction.

This study found that using medical terminology for newly medicalized disorders leads people to perceive them as more serious, more representative of a disease, and less common than when common language is used.

In this study, stress experienced by transmen during early stages of gender transition was associated with reduced nocturnal blood pressure decline and increased C-reactive protein levels.

This review discusses severe insulin resistance syndromes, highlighting their diagnostic challenges, potential novel therapies like leptin replacement, and suggests metformin and lifestyle changes in its absence; no new clinical results are reported.

This study concluded that coat damage in captive rhesus macaques is unlikely caused by parasitic, bacterial, or mycotic infections but may be linked to environmental or behavioral factors affecting hair growth.

This study concluded that both phosphatidylcholine alone and with organic silicium effectively reduced submental fat, achieving optimal results after three sessions with mild and temporary adverse effects.

This study found that acellular dermal matrix scaffolds may facilitate full-thickness skin wound healing by promoting a pro-regenerative immune response through M2 macrophage polarization via the Lamtor1 pathway.

This study found that osteopontin mRNA is abundantly expressed in dermal papilla cells during the catagen phase of hair growth in rats, suggesting a role in this phase.

This study found that finasteride impaired object recognition memory and altered hippocampal dendritic structures in male 3xTg-AD mice, suggesting potential sex differences in Alzheimer's disease pathology.

This article reviews various aspects of shampoos, including preparation methods and commercial value, but reports no new experimental results, instead focusing on patents and product evaluation criteria.

In this study, rice bran mineral extract increased expression of anagen-related proteins and decreased inflammatory markers in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential for hair growth enhancement and prevention of hair loss.

This article reviews techniques for repairing scalp deformities and concludes that combining older methods with modern hair restoration allows for satisfactory treatment of large scarred areas.

This study reported that polymeric nanofibers containing minoxidil sulphate showed effective encapsulation and stability, with minimal concentration loss over six months, making them potentially ideal for delivering this unstable drug in a more visually appealing and easier-to-apply form.

This study describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

Finasteride for hair loss in young men may significantly increase the risk of sexual dysfunction.

This study employed multiple linear regressions to analyze hydantoin analogues and produced a model with strong predictive abilities for designing new androgen receptor modulators.

Finasteride for hair loss in young men increases the risk of sexual dysfunction.

Young men taking finasteride for hair loss have a higher risk of sexual dysfunction.

This study suggests that cortisol measured in human hair can effectively reflect increased production for up to six months, but its retrospective accuracy may be limited due to rapid decline in levels.

This review suggests that hair transplantation may be a viable treatment option for certain primary scarring alopecias, although findings should be interpreted cautiously due to possible publication bias favoring positive results.

This study found that men with common male pattern baldness received less favorable initial social perceptions, including lower ratings of physical attractiveness, than their nonbalding counterparts.

This study observed that direct hair transplantation, as a modification of follicular unit extraction, was effective in improving baldness in the majority of treated male patients.
