This study confirms that finasteride inhibits the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone in human dermal fibroblasts, suggesting potential therapeutic use for androgen-related skin disorders.

In this case report, the researchers described the use of tofacitinib in treating a 14-year-old boy from India with severe alopecia areata, achieving complete hair regrowth within 2 months without serious adverse events, highlighting tofacitinib's potential benefits and safety in adolescent cases.

This study found that oral tofacitinib at a 5mg twice daily dosage was effective in treating recalcitrant alopecia areata, showing significant improvement in hair regrowth and a 27% reduction in SALT scores over six months, with minimal side effects among the 19 patients monitored.

This article reviews cultural differences in the incidence of hair-thread tourniquet syndrome and finds it may be less prevalent in Iranian children compared to Europe, possibly due to social and cultural factors.

This pilot study suggests that high-dose testosterone plus finasteride improved knee extensor strength and muscle size in men with impaired gait after chronic incomplete spinal cord injury.

Tamsulosin works faster, but both drugs have similar effects after 6 months.

This study demonstrated that using finasteride impurity as a non-isotopically labeled internal standard in paper spray ionization–mass spectrometry can effectively and efficiently measure finasteride tablet dissolution, achieving results comparable to high-performance liquid chromatography.

This study found that finasteride treatment significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women with idiopathic hirsutism over 6 months and was well tolerated.

This review discusses fixed drug eruption (FDE) potentially linked to finasteride and emphasizes dermatologists' need to recognize its possible occurrence due to the drug's widespread use, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes three pediatric cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, a condition typically seen in postmenopausal women, including a unique instance involving female twins.

This study found that among COVID-19 patients, a higher presence of the G allele in the IFITM3 rs12252 polymorphism correlates with increased inflammatory markers and disease severity, noting higher ESR, CRP, Fibrinogen, LDH, and D-dimer levels in severe cases compared to mild ones.

In this study, both cyproterone acetate-estrogen combination (Diane®) and finasteride were effective in reducing hirsutism, but Diane® showed greater long-term efficacy and cost-effectiveness.

This research observed that 5α-reductase inhibitors showed significant tic-suppressing effects in Tourette's syndrome, suggesting a key role for this enzyme in the disorder's pathogenesis.

This article highlights the significant hair transplant results achieved with the potentially obsolete FUT technique and includes varied expert opinions on its efficacy, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study reported that Tomorrowlabs HIF strengthening factor [HSF] hair restoration technology significantly improved hair thickness, density, shine, and elasticity, while reducing hair loss by an average of 66.8% and enhancing hair growth by up to 32.5% in subjects with androgenic alopecia over nine months.

In this study, retrospective analysis of patients with severe alopecia areata showed that oral JAK inhibitors, tofacitinib and baricitinib, reduced hair loss significantly, with comparable effectiveness; longer tofacitinib use was linked to greater improvement, while baricitinib achieved substantial outcomes quickly.

This study developed a non-destructive X-ray fluorescence technique to quantitatively analyze elemental content in human hair and constructed a database of element concentrations in healthy Swedish, Caucasian individuals.

This study investigated the penetration of a low-molecular-weight cationic conditioning compound into the hair cortex and suggests it may improve hair's fatigue resistance.

This study reports that the new neighborhood face index (NFI) demonstrates a remarkably high correlation with the physiochemical properties of benzenoid hydrocarbons, highlighting its potential as a predictive tool.

This study found that trichostasis spinulosa is a common condition primarily affecting the face across all ages, with a higher prevalence in women than men.

Targeting immune pathways like JAK/STAT may help treat frontal fibrosing alopecia.

In this study, itraconazole was reported to effectively alleviate clinical symptoms in patients with recalcitrant Trichophyton rubrum infections, though toenail infections often recurred, indicating the need for further research on long-term efficacy and safety.

This study found that CTIP2 is highly expressed in mouse skin during embryogenesis and adulthood, suggesting it may play a role in skin development and homeostasis.
