This review reported that alopecia prevalence and psychosocial impacts vary significantly among migrant and ethnic minority communities due to diverse genetic, environmental, and cultural factors, highlighting needs for culturally competent care and stigma reduction to address disparities and improve access.

Pediatric patients with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa face more hospital admissions, procedures, and complications than others.

This meta-analysis suggests that the G allele of AR StuI polymorphism might be a potential risk factor for AGA, particularly in white populations.

This study identified two significant genomic regions potentially involved in hair development and growth in Casertana pigs, highlighting FOXN3 and ARHGEF10 as candidate genes associated with a hairless phenotype.

This case report identified two new SLC39A4 mutations in twin patients with acrodermatitis enteropathica, suggesting that different mutations in this gene may lead to varying clinical manifestations of the disorder.

This study identified a significant genetic association between the TNFα gene and alopecia areata susceptibility in the Jordanian Arab population.

This study described the range and treatment of skin disorders among pediatric inpatients at a teaching hospital, finding allergic skin diseases as the most common group, primarily diagnosed clinically.

In this survey-based study, researchers reported a high prevalence of hair loss among subjects in Delhi and the National Capital Region and noted widespread unawareness of its dietary, hormonal, genetic, and environmental causes.

In this study, the researchers found that rare genetic variants make a minor contribution to male-pattern hair loss risk, identifying five significant gene associations, including novel genes, and noting a shared basis with monogenic hair loss disorders.

This article reviews genetic and phenotypic aspects of androgen insensitivity syndromes, emphasizing the diversity of mutations that complicates molecular screening and the importance of genotype-phenotype correlations.

In this study, family history of androgenetic alopecia was associated with earlier onset and increased severity of hair loss in men, but had no impact on treatment effectiveness.

This study identified three genetic loci influencing hair density in East Asian populations and found associations with demographic and lifestyle factors like age, sex, and BMI. The results also suggest possible genotype-specific responses to finasteride for managing hair disorders.

This study identified eight genetic markers associated with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting that these SNPs could influence individualized therapeutic responses and highlight the need for personalized treatment strategies.

This study used a new statistical approach, PLACO, to identify several novel shared genetic regions associated with both Type 2 Diabetes and Prostate Cancer in two large GWAS datasets.

This genome-wide association study identified 20 genetic signals at 15 risk loci related to severe acne, revealing new insights into its genetic predisposition, particularly affecting skin structure and maintenance.

This systematic review and meta-analysis reported potential risk variants for acne in genes related to inflammation and sebaceous gland function, including TNF, CYP17A1, and FST, across diverse populations.

This study identified more than 100 genetic loci associated with hair color variation in Europeans, explaining a significant portion of the trait's heritability and advancing understanding of hair pigmentation.

This study identified four new genetic loci associated with acne risk and highlighted key pathways involved in its genetic predisposition, potentially explaining 9.4% of acne's phenotypic variance.

This study found an association between atopic dermatitis and autoimmune diseases in both adults and children, with women more likely to experience these complications, but further research is needed due to limited participant numbers.

This historical review examines the diagnostic and etiological understanding of alopecia areata, emphasizing the evolution of theories and the impact of immunological data, while providing no new clinical results.

This study conducted a meta-analysis and found that men with both frontal and vertex male pattern baldness have a slightly increased risk of developing prostate cancer, though most data was from Caucasian populations and effect modification by genetic variations was not assessed.

In this in silico study, researchers analyzed nonsynonymous SNPs in the LIPH gene linked to hypotrichosis and identified three potentially harmful variants (W108R, C246S, and H248N) out of 215 total, using sequence- and architecture-based bioinformatics techniques to differentiate between harmful and benign SNPs.

This study analyzed survey responses from 800 alopecia areata patients and found a possible genetic association with increased insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in relatives but not in the patients themselves.

This study suggests that the methylation degree of HOXC8 exon 1 in the hair follicle may influence cashmere fiber growth in Liaoning cashmere goats.

This article argues that lineage labeling with genetic markers is the gold standard for identifying epithelial stem cells, contrary to the view that in vitro methods alone are sufficient.

This study identified multiple factors associated with the onset of androgenetic alopecia, including age, occupation, education, mental status, genetic history, and dietary habits, with mental factors being significant.

This study proposed a model that accurately predicts skin condition using genotype information and machine learning, suggesting potential for creating customized cosmetics.

This study found evidence suggesting a potential genetic link between polycystic ovaries and premature male pattern baldness through screening of first-degree relatives of women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

More research is needed to understand hair aging and develop effective treatments.

This study found that although the global incidence of alopecia areata has risen since 1990, age-standardized rates have slightly decreased, with significant comorbidity associations varying by region.
