This systemic review and meta-analysis found that men with androgenetic alopecia generally experience moderate impacts on quality of life, but limited evidence of severe effects on mental health.

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 suggests that the "spade sign" is a highly specific histopathologic feature of acne keloidalis, although its absence does not rule out the condition.

This project by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery aims to define best practices in hair restoration surgery but does not report new clinical findings.

This project by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery reviews best practices in hair restoration surgery and reports no new research findings.

This study revealed specific patterns and potential functions of long non-coding RNAs during the hair follicle cycle of yaks, offering insights into their sequence conservation between yaks and cashmere goats.

This study observed that high levels of immunoreactive cortisol in the tail hair of captive Asian elephants were often associated with stressful or distinct behavioral events, suggesting its potential for reconstructing their physiological history.

This study found that chromium, inositol, and Omega-3 are beneficial for improving lipid profiles in women with PCOS, and various supplements help alleviate other symptoms.

This study found that while 5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride had many serious, unresolved adverse drug reactions, some were not listed in the existing product information.

In this study, researchers identified two person-centered sexual function profiles among women, linked to physical and psychological factors, with PCOS showing greater, though not significant, presence in the dysfunction profile. The dysfunction was associated with higher adiposity and body-image distress.

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 SER120 nasal spray significantly improved nocturia symptoms and quality of life compared to placebo in patients 50 years and older, with both tested doses showing efficacy and an acceptable safety profile over a 12-week period.

This study examined cashmere goats using whole-genome resequencing data and found that the Inner Mongolia cashmere goat had the lowest inbreeding coefficient, with genes identified linked to fiber, fertility, disease resistance, and growth, which can inform future breeding efforts.

This study reports that yellow dots in a higher number per field of vision were the most consistent dermoscopic finding in severe cases of alopecia areata.

This study found that dandruff-afflicted individuals had a less integrated microbial network on the scalp and hair surface compared to healthy individuals, with more positive interactions and unstable connections.

This study introduced a non-invasive, three-step diagnostic algorithm for alopecia that combines clinical and trichoscopic features to accurately identify alopecia subtypes, potentially reducing reliance on invasive histopathology.

The study observed that Tai Chi and Wuqinxi, when combined with antihypertensive medication, might be particularly effective in lowering systolic and diastolic blood pressure, respectively, suggesting they could be prioritized as treatment options.

In this study, the researchers identified the SPEF2 and PRLR genes as potential candidates associated with feather rate phenotypes in Shouguang chickens through combined genome-wide association and differential expression analyses.

This study found that the Antera 3D® system provided an objective and sensitive method for assessing pediatric pathological scars, capturing significant changes in pigmentation, vascularity, and volume, compared to the traditional Vancouver Scar Scale and dermoscopy, which showed varied sensitivities across different scar parameters.

This study found that various dietary supplements positively impacted hair density and were well-tolerated among patients with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting they may be useful adjuncts or alternatives to standard treatments.

This study confirmed known adverse events and identified new ones related to ixekizumab, offering preliminary safety insights for its clinical use, but noted limitations such as potential underreporting and confounding factors in the spontaneous adverse event reporting systems.

This review discusses targeting gut microbiota modulation as a promising strategy for osteoarthritis prevention and management but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses low-level laser therapy and fractional laser therapies as alternative treatments for androgenetic alopecia, but reports limited evidence of their efficacy due to small sample sizes and potential study biases.

This study optimized efinaconazole spanlastic nanovesicles using risk management and multivariate analysis for potential transungual delivery to treat onychomycosis, achieving improved drug permeability and dissolution efficiency.

In this study, researchers found that blackberry leaves exhibited higher liposoluble antioxidant levels and inhibited lipid peroxidation more effectively than raspberry leaves, while raspberry leaves showed greater water-soluble antioxidant content and hydroxyl radical inhibition in vitro.

In this study, researchers using Mendelian randomization found a potential causal relationship between the gut microbiome and alopecia areata, with 16 gut microbial taxa showing links to the condition, though reverse causation results were not statistically significant.

In this study, researchers used SEM/SDD-EDS to identify waterborne minerals like calcium and aluminum in the scalp hair cuticle of individuals using treated or untreated water for hair washing, finding that prior application of coconut oil or conditioners can prevent calcium uptake.

This study found that oral minoxidil is associated with a higher proportional reporting of several cardiovascular adverse events compared to topical minoxidil in spontaneous FDA reports, but these signals should be interpreted as hypothesis-generating rather than evidence of clinical safety.

Current evidence reviewed in this study indicates that finasteride, a drug for hair loss, can cause depression and suicidality, with delayed recognition partly due to insufficient post-approval pharmacovigilance by manufacturers and regulators.

This study found that peroxide-rich plasma-activated water caused minimal morphological damage to hair, while nitrate-rich plasma-activated water induced significant damage, especially in porous hair types.
