This case report describes a rare side effect of finasteride in a young male being treated for androgenic alopecia.

This study found that econazole nitrate delivered via MPEG-dihexPLA micelles significantly increased skin deposition compared to Pevaryl® cream, potentially enhancing drug bioavailability and clinical efficacy.

This case report documents a middle-aged female with black piedra on her scalp hair, confirmed through potassium hydroxide examination and fungal culture.

This article discusses the role of external beam radiotherapy as a primary treatment method for cancer and reports no new clinical findings.

In this ex vivo and mouse model study, Tofacitinib-loaded nanoparticles demonstrated enhanced delivery of the drug into hair follicles and reduced inflammatory effects compared to conventional forms, indicating potential for safer, topical use in treating alopecia areata.

This article reviews local anesthesia techniques for Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) hair transplantation, noting that ring blocks are preferred due to their simplicity, effectiveness, and safety, while nerve blocks are used when additional anesthesia is needed.

This prospective study in Morocco reported on 20 cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, finding that dermoscopy played a key role in diagnosing and managing the condition, which can increasingly affect premenopausal women.

This study found that cetaceans have adapted their fibroblast growth factors to assist in low bone density, hypoxia tolerance, and the development of rigid flippers, reflecting significant evolutionary changes for aquatic life.

This study investigated the possible role of neutrophil extracellular traps in contributing to fibrosis in stenotic Crohn's disease.

In this study using Angora rabbits, researchers found that the FRZB gene inhibits hair follicle development by modulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, affecting the expression of various genes related to this pathway and altering cell proliferation and apoptosis.

This review discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no clinical results; the authors note that no therapeutic options tested, including corticosteroids, finasteride, and minoxidil, have shown clear benefits.

In this study, researchers describe the FUE method of hair micrografting, which involves extracting and implanting follicular units using advanced tools, leading to more natural results, quicker recovery, and less damage to donor sites.

This study describes a system called FOLLYSIS©, which uses mathematics and image analysis to optimize Follicular Unit Extraction hair transplants, showing high accuracy in measuring donor area density and reducing donor site injury.

This study found that mackerel fermented fish oil protected human keratinocyte cells from UVB-induced oxidative stress by scavenging free radicals and reducing cellular damage.

In this case study, a 24-year-old woman with frontal alopecia resembling frontal fibrosing alopecia was ultimately diagnosed with primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma, highlighting the critical role of biopsy in identifying atypical alopecia presentations.

In this study, the SAFE System for follicular unit extraction demonstrated a favorable average follicle transection rate of 6.14% and is accessible for physicians with basic technical skills, showing promise for wider adoption.

This study in rats suggests that combining the 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor 4-MA with the antiandrogen Flutamide may enhance prostate cancer therapy by additively inhibiting prostatic growth and mRNA levels of androgen-sensitive prostatic binding proteins.

This study found that certain circulating miRNAs in skin and plasma may serve as potential biomarkers for distinguishing frontal fibrosing alopecia from control cases, highlighting the need for further validation in larger cohorts.

This study found that theabrownin-selenium nanoparticles (TB-Se NPs) effectively target Malassezia-induced dermatitis through a dual antifungal and immunomodulatory mechanism, suppressing fungal overgrowth, reducing inflammation, and enhancing immune memory to prevent recurrence in a dermatitis model.

In this study, researchers found that patients with Friedreich's ataxia exhibited more pronounced ultra-structural hair alterations compared to carriers, likely due to oxidative stress related to deficient frataxin expression.

This study found that in beagles with benign prostate hyperplasia, finasteride treatment increased blood volume and decreased vessel leakiness in the prostate's parenchymal zone as shown by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI.

This study identified that trichoscopy can effectively diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by highlighting specific scalp abnormalities in postmenopausal women.

A new hydrogel can kill resistant bacteria and help heal infected burn wounds.

This review covers the clinical presentation and challenges in treating frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal women and concludes that more research is needed to understand its etiology and develop effective treatments.

This source provides supplementary materials for the Carnivore Follicular Integrity Framework, a theoretical model proposing that animal-based diets may support hair follicle stability through several biological mechanisms. The materials include definitions, nutrient tables, and mechanistic notes but do not report empirical results.

This article reviews the pathogenesis of frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the potential genetic and environmental contributions, particularly the use of sunscreens, and calls for further research into effective treatments.

This promotional text about hair replacement options near Lauderdale Lakes argues against hair plugs, implants, laser transplants, and robotic surgery but provides no clinical research findings.

This study found a high prevalence of beard and eyebrow alopecia in male patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, and suggests a potential link between hormonal imbalances and the condition.

This study found that Mueller Matrix microscopy can accurately identify, detect, and evaluate hair follicles in mouse skin tissue, suggesting its potential for skin structure research and dermatological applications.
