This study observed that hair breakage may indicate early central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women, suggesting that it should be considered in their differential diagnosis.

This study found that human follicle dermal papilla cells promote survival, proliferation, and tubulogenesis of microvascular endothelial cells, highlighting their significant role in hair follicle vascular remodeling.

Losartan can cause temporary loss of taste.

In this study, alopecia areata was associated with thyroid autoimmunity but not islet autoimmunity, correlating with specific class II HLA haplotypes linked to various autoimmune diseases.

Using finasteride with TIP extends time off period for prostate cancer patients.

This article reviews modern hair transplantation techniques, noting that while many innovations have improved natural-looking results and expanded candidate eligibility, some may have hidden drawbacks, and it reports no new results.
