This study found that injecting autologous dermal sheath cup cells significantly increased hair density and diameter in male and female pattern hair loss compared to a placebo for up to 9 months.

In this study, the researchers found that a manual micrometer caliper is a reliable tool for planning hair transplant surgery and accurately measures the short axis of the hair shaft.

In this study, topical acyclovir significantly delayed hair growth initiation and completion in mice and reduced hair follicle size, suggesting potential inhibitory effects on hair growth.

This study confirmed that an injectable implant known as RISUG-PH™, when administered via the vas deferens, successfully delivers the drug Finasteride to the prostate in male rats for up to 28 days, suggesting a potential localized alternative to oral delivery methods.

This study observed that both finasteride and dutasteride significantly decreased dihydrotestosterone concentrations in hair, with dutasteride showing the greatest reduction.

Finasteride's sexual side effects not caused by androgen deficiency or SRD5A inhibition.

This study found that polymeric micelle formulations significantly improved the targeted delivery of adapalene to hair follicles compared to standard Differin® products, which suggests potential advantages in treating hair follicle-related conditions and reducing side effects.

This study found that trichoscopy can effectively differentiate scalp psoriasis from seborrheic dermatitis by identifying specific trichoscopic patterns such as hidden hairs, signet ring vessels, and comma vessels.

This study found no significant proteomic differences in hair samples across racial or geometric groups in a culturally diverse South African cohort, highlighting the limited value of racial classification in precision medicine.

Finasteride use may cause sexual dysfunction; more research needed.

In this study, researchers found that massively parallel sequencing of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can improve information recovery from forensic samples, with successful full region amplification possible from as few as 2,000 mtDNA copies, albeit with variability in heteroplasmy among hair samples from the same donor.

This study observed that non-scarring diffuse hair loss was common in systemic lupus erythematosus patients, but did not find a significant relationship with the SLE Disease Activity Index.

In this study, researchers developed and validated a rapid and robust chromatographic method to assess the concentration of Minoxidil and Finasteride in a new topical formulation for alopecia, demonstrating its ability to distinguish between different types of formulations using in vitro diffusion data.

This study evaluated the stability of multiple active ingredients in TrichoSol™ for use in alopecia treatments, finding varying stability durations at room temperature—up to 180 days for some ingredients—supporting its use as a compounding vehicle in personalized therapies.

This article reports a case of Netherton's syndrome that responded to 12% ammonium lactate lotion, suggesting potential treatment benefits for skin and allergic symptoms in this rare condition.

In this study, nearly all predialysis chronic kidney disease patients had at least one dermatologic finding, with xerosis being the most common, highlighting the prevalence and diversity of skin issues in this population.

This article reviews factors influencing hair aging and available treatments like minoxidil and finasteride for androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported a significant increase in the reporting of sexual dysfunction associated with finasteride use, especially in individuals aged 31-45.

Topical finasteride doesn't reduce DHT levels, hinting at an endocrine role in hair loss.

This study found that variations in mineral content of hair, such as increased Zr in asthma and respiratory infections, may be linked to different illnesses, suggesting potential diagnostic use.

This study suggests that men under 40 who develop persistent sexual side effects and insomnia after using finasteride for alopecia may be at increased risk of suicide.

This study found that short durations of heat and specific chemical penetration enhancers significantly improved the delivery of finasteride to human scalp skin and hair follicles.

This case report discusses a young girl with loose anagen hair syndrome, highlighting the importance of recognizing the condition early to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatments, and noting her spontaneous improvement with conservative management.

Hair loss is due to thinner hairs, not less hairs; hair diameter indicates balding progression and treatment effectiveness.
