This study found that trichoscopy can confirm the diagnosis and assess the clinical severity of female androgenetic alopecia, correlating specific features with different severity grades.

This study reports that tofacitinib, a JAK 1/3 inhibitor, showed significant improvement in a patient with co-occurring severe alopecia totalis and lichen planus hypertrophicus, conditions that are typically resistant to treatment.

This review assessed trichoscopic findings in folliculotropic mycosis fungoides of the scalp, reporting features like milky-red globules and distinct vascular patterns, but noted the predominance of small studies and the need for larger research to validate trichoscopy's diagnostic utility for this condition.

This case report describes a 46-year-old man who developed folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, a form of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder, following renal transplantation.

In this study, introducing the rat OTC gene into spf-ash mice led to increased OTC activity and normalized hair growth and biochemical markers like urinary orotic acid and serum citrulline, partially correcting the symptoms of OTC deficiency.

This report describes two cases of hair tourniquet syndrome involving the thumb and toe, which were successfully treated without complications.

The Dfl mutation in mice causes poor sebaceous gland function and complete hair loss.

This review of teriflunomide for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis examines its clinical and safety outcomes, finding it significantly reduces relapse rates and disability progression while being generally well-tolerated.

This article reviews how new observations have revolutionized surgical hair restoration and highlights the logical applications and prior illogical judgments that delayed this advancement, without reporting new results.

The researchers in this study identified molecular mechanisms involved in frontal fibrosis alopecia, highlighting immune response and fatty acid metabolism, and developed a four-gene diagnostic model showing high accuracy in distinguishing affected individuals from controls.

This study found that tofacitinib led to ≥50% hair regrowth in eight out of twelve patients with moderate to severe alopecia areata, suggesting a potential benefit for using JAK inhibitors in treating this condition.

This study reports the development of a fluorescent ionic liquid that shows high sensitivity and selectivity for detecting dextran sulfate sodium, with potential applications in clinical diagnostics and environmental monitoring.

This study identified a novel G207E STING mutation causing a distinct phenotype involving alopecia, photosensitivity, and thyroid dysfunction, and suggests that common polymorphisms in TMEM173 and IFIH1 may influence disease presentation.

This study found poor agreement among dermatopathologists in identifying and grading fibrosis in traction alopecia, suggesting the need for better diagnostic methods for early fibrosis detection.

This study examined the effectiveness of FT-Raman spectroscopy for detecting polymorphism in Lamivudine and Finasteride, highlighting its advantages over other methods due to its capability to provide sharp, well-resolved spectral bands and reduced sampling issues.

This study found that an SNP in the FGFR2 gene, rs4752566, was significantly associated with hair thickness in Asian populations, suggesting an effect on hair morphology through altered FGFR2 expression levels.

This review discusses recent insights into Birt–Hogg–Dube syndrome, including the functions of the FLCN gene and clinical recommendations for screening and treatment, but it reports no new experimental results.

This case report described a 24-year-old with alopecia totalis who saw full scalp hair regrowth by the 9th month while using oral tofacitinib, which was well-tolerated and did not show serious adverse effects. Longer-term studies are needed to confirm its overall effectiveness for alopecia totalis.

This study identifies specific trichoscopic features such as empty follicles and perifollicular erythema in Caucasians with frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may assist in diagnosis and monitoring, but stresses the need for further research due to limited demographic data.

This case report documented successful full hair regrowth in an 8-year-old with alopecia universalis after oral tofacitinib treatment, but mild headaches led to discontinuation.

This study reports that oral tofacitinib treatment in a patient with refractory lichen planus pigmentosus and frontal fibrosing alopecia resulted in near-complete resolution of hyperpigmentation and cessation of hairline recession over 18 months, and suggests it may be a promising therapy for these challenging conditions.

This case report describes trichothiodystrophy in two sisters with only hair fragility, illustrating the condition's variable presentation and the importance of regular monitoring for potential associated impairments.

Human growth factor 20 can boost mouse whisker growth.

Folliculin slows hair growth, and blocking it might help treat hair loss.

In this study, researchers found that nearly half of Korean women with female pattern hair loss showed temporal scalp involvement, with a decrease in temporal hair density compared to occipital areas.

The Trichodysplasia spinulosa virus protein can cause abnormal hair growth in mice.

This study found that mutations in the FGF5 gene are the primary genetic factor causing long hair in domestic cats through an autosomal recessive mechanism.
