This study strongly suggests that a distinct form of hereditary localized alopecia in a Chinese family is linked to a novel locus on chromosome 2p25.1–2p23.2.

In this study, combining endoscopic forehead lifting with hairline lowering successfully rejuvenated the upper facial area in 194 patients by lowering hairlines by an average of 18 mm and raising eyebrows by 5 mm, without serious complications.

This study found that hairline lowering surgery using a bone tunneling technique without Endotine effectively reduced forehead length and achieved high patient satisfaction among 91 participants, with results sustained over 12 months and minimal reported complications.

This review found that current forensic DNA phenotyping panels for biogeographical ancestry and visible traits face significant limitations due to inconsistencies in terminology, genetic understanding, and genotyping technologies, highlighting the need for harmonization and further research.

As skin ages, it gets thinner, paler, and more wrinkled, and protection and care like sunblock and moisturizers are important.

This review critically examines Forensic DNA Phenotyping, highlighting high accuracy in predicting certain traits but also legal and ethical challenges, particularly around regulatory fragmentation and issues of genetic privacy.

This article proposes a hypothesis that hyperandrogenemia is the final common pathway for developing adolescent PCOS and emphasizes the importance of reducing androgen levels to mitigate risks of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and infertility in adulthood.

This study found a significant association between AGDAC measurements and the presence of PCOS, suggesting it could be an effective clinical tool in diagnosing the condition and its phenotypes, especially when combined with AMH.

In this study, TENS of the T6 dermatome over a longer term was explored for its effects on weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and appetite-regulating hormones in obese subjects with moderate obstructive sleep apnea; however, results are not reported in the abstract.

In this study, researchers identified novel LMNA mutations in patients with atypical progeroid syndrome, revealing clinical features distinct from other similar disorders, but unrelated to mutant prelamin A accumulation.

This review outlines various clinical methods for assessing ageing skin and discusses their application in supporting the efficacy claims of anti-ageing treatments, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study identified novel genetic associations with skin phenotypes such as age-spots, freckles, and hair characteristics in Japanese women, providing insights into the genetic basis of these traits.

This review highlights that children with adrenal disorders may experience neurological and psychiatric symptoms, with potential long-term cognitive and behavioral effects from excess glucocorticoids.

This study provides evidence-based recommendations for the off-label use of topical vitamin D in treating certain skin conditions, but highlights the need for higher quality studies for further validation.

This article reviews the basics of hair follicle biology, laser/tissue interactions, and hirsutism and hypertrichosis causes, discussing the long-pulsed alexandrite laser's role in hair reduction without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that most completely excised basal cell carcinomas in the head and neck were nodular, with a 2.7% recurrence rate, particularly in median areas, likely due to anatomical and histopathological factors.

This review discusses dermatologic signs in childhood endocrine disorders and highlights their importance in early diagnosis and treatment, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found 30 genetic loci associated with skin ageing phenotypes, noting shared biological pathways in aspects like pigmentation and wrinkling; researchers suggest further studies targeting the same SNP across populations could clarify these associations.

This review discusses existing forensic DNA phenotyping panels for biogeographical ancestry and externally visible characteristics and highlights major technical limitations, including terminology issues, genetic knowledge gaps, and technological debates; it reports no new results.

This article reviews common dermatologic conditions seen in primary care, such as acne and skin cancer, but reports no new findings.

This source discusses the potential of topical JAK inhibitors, like tofacitinib, as effective treatments for autoimmune skin diseases, emphasizing their superior safety profile and minimal adverse effects compared to conventional systemic therapies.

This genetic study identified a potential interval for the Marie Unna hypotrichosis gene but found no mutations in the nearby hr gene, suggesting its involvement remains unconfirmed.

This review discusses recent advances in the understanding of follicular melanogenesis and its pathological changes, particularly how these changes are associated with specific disease phenotypes, but it reports no new results.

This index of Harper's Textbook of Pediatric Dermatology, Fourth Edition, provides no clinical results or new findings.

In this study, a clear pattern of selective sweep was observed for the SLC24A5 gene, with high linkage disequilibrium and low haplotype diversity, but no clear correlation with UV radiation intensity was found.

This chapter reviews various mucocutaneous manifestations of endocrine disorders and provides illustrative images of these clinical features, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that normal murine hair follicles are direct targets for melatonin bioregulation, expressing receptors that are regulated in a hair cycle-dependent manner, influencing keratinocyte apoptosis.

This review discusses the classification and diagnosis of pregnancy-related skin conditions and reports no new clinical findings.

In this large British study, prostate cancer risk was linked to ethnicity, family history, prostate enlargement, and PSA testing, while excess adiposity, smoking, diabetes, and certain lifestyle factors were associated with a reduced risk.

This review discusses the steroidogenic properties of human skin and suggests that impaired steroidogenesis may be linked to conditions like acne, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and androgenic alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.
