This study reports that Broussonetia papyrifera extract significantly increased hair count over 12 weeks in a small clinical trial and promoted dermal papilla cell proliferation in vitro by regulating WNT-β-catenin and STAT6 pathways.

This study found that the MIR34A rs2666433 (A/G) variant is linked to increased risk and severity of alopecia areata, and high circulatory miR-34a levels may play a role in the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that in Hidradenitis Suppurativa patients, the psychosocial subscale of Skindex-17 is most relevant for assessing quality of life across different severity levels, with irritation and pain becoming more pertinent as severity progresses.

This pharmacovigilance study found strong disproportionality signals suggesting an association between finasteride and Peyronie's disease-related clinical features, but the evidence does not confirm a causal link.

This pharmacovigilance study found that certain systemic medications, including finasteride, bortezomib, and dupilumab, were disproportionately reported in association with eyelid disorders like blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction, and chalazia, suggesting these drugs may contribute to these conditions though benefits might still outweigh the risks.

In this study, a case of a young Chinese female with a specific NUDT15 genetic variant experienced severe azathioprine-induced myelosuppression and alopecia while treating systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the need for routine blood monitoring during treatment to manage AZA intolerance associated with genetic factors.

This study evaluated AI chatbots' responses to scabies-related questions, finding DeepSeek had the highest accuracy despite higher hallucination rates, while ChatGPT-5.2 provided more readable and reliable information, highlighting variability and the need for cautious use of AI in health queries.

This study reported that the increased dermatological emergency department visits during the pandemic, influenced by PPE usage and psychological stressors, highlight the need for more robust dermatology training and resources in emergency medicine to better prepare for future pandemics.

This article hypothesizes that thymoma with aplastic anemia may result from abnormal autoimmune CD8⁺ T lymphocytes produced by the thymoma, potentially leading to other cytotoxic T-cell-mediated autoimmune diseases.

This study examined postmenopausal hyperandrogenism related to ovarian disease and found that specific biochemical markers can help differentiate between tumorous and non-tumorous cases, with a good level of sensitivity and specificity, supporting surgical intervention for resolution.

This study found that wound bed perfusion strongly predicts skin graft viability by correlating with lower necrosis extension on both the scalp and lower limb, unlike perfusion of the wound margin and donor skin, which showed no significant correlation.

In this multicenter observational study, researchers found that using micrografts with human follicle mesenchymal stem cells increased hair density significantly in both male and female patients with mild to moderate androgenic alopecia after 12 months, suggesting a viable alternative for hair regrowth.

This report observed that discontinuation of cyclosporine led to complete hair regrowth in a child with alopecia, suggesting a potential link between cyclosporine and hair loss.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine in treating lichen planopilaris, suggesting varying success based on a real-life retrospective analysis.

This study identified seven potential enzyme inhibitors from a Polygonum cuspidatum extract using ultrafiltration combined with high-performance liquid chromatography. These compounds showed inhibitory activity against tyrosinase, α-glucosidase, and xanthine oxidase, with most discovered in this extract for the first time.

This study found that the green alga Botryococcus terribilis and its novel compounds significantly promoted hair growth marker gene expression in hair follicle dermal papilla cells without cytotoxic effects.

This review highlights the potential for using the Y chromosome in epigenetic analyses to better understand male-specific aging and disease mechanisms.

This study found that the COVID-19 pandemic significantly altered public interest in dermatologic conditions and treatments, with decreased interest in skin cancers but increased interest in issues like dry skin and hand eczema.

This study observed that post-surgical use of chlorhexidine digluconate mouth rinse in patients may induce a fibrotic transformation in gingival tissue, promoting a scar-like wound healing response.

This study found that premature hair graying is strongly associated with a family history, Vitamin B12 deficiency, and hypothyroidism, with onset as early as 5 years in patients in Gurugram, India.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma injections were more effective than hyaluronic acid in improving survival rates, reducing re-intervention, and enhancing patient satisfaction for mid-term knee osteoarthritis treatment.

In this study, subcutaneous injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in burned rats significantly improved wound healing by reducing inflammation, scar formation, and wound size, and restoring normal skin structures.

The authors concluded that trichoscopic examination can be useful for diagnosing syphilitic alopecia in patients with idiopathic alopecia, though the findings are nonspecific and further studies are needed.

This study developed two highly reliable Arabic HRQoL questionnaires for evaluating quality of life in married and unmarried women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

In this preclinical study, PA-011 derived from Periplaneta americana showed significant hair regrowth effects in androgenetic alopecia mouse models by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress, activating hair follicle stem cell proliferation, and normalizing skin microbiota, suggesting promise as an AGA treatment.

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.

Custom software found that common allergy drugs might have new uses for various conditions and could improve survival in some cancers.

This article discusses various limitations of direct-to-consumer teledermatology platforms, highlighting concerns regarding ethical issues, financial conflicts of interest, and challenges in providing comprehensive patient care compared to traditional in-person consultations.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that the expression of the oncogene SmoM2 leads to basal cell carcinoma in the ear epidermis of mice but not in the back skin, with differences in susceptibility linked to the composition of the extracellular matrix.
