In this systematic review and meta-analysis, the authors examined single-spin versus double-spin centrifugation protocols for PRP in patients with androgenic alopecia and found no significant difference in platelet concentration, hair density, or hair types between the protocols.

This study identified compound heterozygous mutations, c.1101del and c.736 T > A, in the LIPH gene responsible for causing autosomal recessive woolly hair in a child, with c.1101del being a novel frameshift mutation.

This study observed that omalizumab may induce alopecia, particularly in females aged 18-60, though establishing a direct cause-effect link remains challenging. Alopecia areata was noted as a possible uncommon, yet transient, hair loss type associated with omalizumab.

This bibliometric analysis reviewed 4,515 articles on strabismus research from 2004 to 2023, highlighting a shift towards innovative and interdisciplinary treatment methods, with significant contributions noted from the USA, China, and the UK.

This study reviews the role of hair follicles in the development, symptoms, and treatment options for vitiligo and alopecia areata, aiming to enhance understanding of their involvement in these autoimmune conditions and explore potential therapies.

In this review, the researchers highlighted the prevalent symptoms in cirrhosis patients, including pain, muscle cramps, sleep disturbances, and mental health issues, and emphasized the need for a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach for symptom management to improve quality of life.

Data-driven methods can help understand microbiota's role in diseases and develop personalized treatments.

In this study, a 3-year-old Japanese child with autosomal recessive woolly hair was found to have a distinctive irregular and rough cuticle on the hair shaft, along with a homozygous pathogenic LIPH variant, suggesting a critical role for genetic analysis in understanding rare hair conditions.

Targeted immunological therapies offer safer and more effective treatments for skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

This Delphi study found that moderate-to-severe alopecia areata in Poland, Czechia, Russia, and Türkiye significantly impacts quality of life and highlights an unmet need for more effective treatments.

This study found that certain gut microbiota are linked with androgenetic alopecia, identifying both risk and protective microbial factors, which could inform targeted probiotic strategies for managing AGA.

In this nonrandomized controlled trial, tenon capsule injection of platelet-rich plasma improved capillary perfusion and may enhance short-term vision in patients with acute nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.

This study reported that mannan oligosaccharides improved the fur quality, immune response, antioxidant status, and gut microbiota of fur-growing raccoon dogs, suggesting they could potentially replace antibiotics in their diet.

In this study, the researchers found that measuring tacrolimus levels in scalp hair could be a reliable method for monitoring drug exposure in kidney transplant recipients, offering an alternative to frequent blood tests by utilizing self-collected hair samples.

This study demonstrated a novel use of tape stripping on a human skin model to simulate the inflammation and barrier damage caused by dry razor shaving, highlighting potential shaving and skin-care formulations that may mitigate such damage.

This study analyzed screening data from 218 alopecia areata patients before starting Janus kinase inhibitors, revealing the importance of pre-treatment screening due to risks of infections like tuberculosis and hepatitis B, with 74.8% of patients proceeding to treatment in real-world settings.

Targeted immunotherapy could be a promising new treatment for hair regrowth.

In a reported case, researchers observed full hair regrowth on the scalp, eyebrows, and eyelashes of a 4-year-old with alopecia universalis after 10 months of treatment with dupilumab, following resistance to baricitinib.

This study observed that in the bald scalps of male patients with androgenetic alopecia, there was a significant downregulation of the PPAR signaling pathway, suggesting reduced adipogenesis potentially influencing hair cycling processes.

This review suggests that the mTOR signaling pathway may play a significant role in hair follicle health by influencing the effects of Vitamin D receptor deficiency, potentially contributing to hair follicle damage and related hair loss conditions.

This study identified core genes and pathways involved in androgenetic alopecia, finding that genes related to hair follicle development are down-regulated, while those linked to immune responses are up-regulated, highlighting potential therapeutic targets.

New treatments and drugs show promise for improving skin pigmentation and regeneration.

This review discusses acupuncture and moxibustion for alopecia and reports evidence suggesting their efficacy for various types of hair loss, but notes barriers like cost and aversion to needles.

This case report described a facial hairline tumor initially diagnosed as a sebaceous cyst but ultimately confirmed as a rare Proliferating Pilar Tumor with focal malignancies upon histopathological examination.

This case study documents the first reported instance of bullous lichen planus/systemic lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome with initial hair loss, which improved with treatment including glucocorticoids and immunosuppressive drugs.

This study observed that Betamethasone oral mini-pulse therapy showed a good response in 60% of lichen planus patients, though further research is needed to confirm its efficacy.

This article provides guidance on evaluating information from package inserts and warns that external references or websites may change over time; it reports no new research findings.

This study found that ALRV5XR showed the highest efficacy for terminal hair regrowth in both men and women with androgenetic alopecia, with less treatment resistance compared to other therapies.

This study found that individuals with androgenetic alopecia had higher scalp microbiome diversity and more complex scalp-gut microbiome networks than those without, suggesting a link between skin-gut microorganisms and hair loss development.
