Most women with excessive hair growth have PCOS; treatment varies and focuses on preventing new hair, with electrolysis as the only permanent removal method.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found that hidradenitis suppurativa is associated with an increased risk of major adverse cardiac events, including cerebrovascular accidents and myocardial infarction, although study heterogeneity affects the magnitude of risk.

This study found that hippocampus sparing whole brain radiation therapy (HS-WBRT) using multi-field intensity modulated radiation therapy prevents alopecia without compromising cognitive function compared to traditional whole brain radiation therapy.

According to this study, human scalp hair follicles containing pluripotent stem cells demonstrated the ability to differentiate into cardiac muscle cells and other cell types, suggesting potential applications in heart and nerve regeneration.

In this case report, a 21-year-old woman diagnosed with ACTH-independent Cushing syndrome showed improvement in symptoms, including a more regular menstrual cycle and lower hirsutism, after starting treatment with ketoconazole, although she developed hypertension.

This article discusses the potential genetic basis of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in women of African ancestry but does not provide new research results.

This article discusses how activating the hexosamine pathway may enhance skin homeostasis by increasing hyaluronic acid secretion and supporting hair follicle stem cell self-renewal, but reports no new results.

This study found that PRC2 plays a non-instructive role in adult hair follicle stem cells, with its loss not affecting quiescence or cell identity, despite upregulation of genes linked to activation.

This study identified a shared gene signature in scarring alopecia subtypes, with increased mast cell presence, suggesting similar treatment approaches may be effective across these hair loss disorders.

Avoiding dyed wigs and clothing improved severe allergic reactions in a woman treated with diphencyprone.

In a study using a mouse model, HF-MSCs were reported to enhance ovarian function in cyclophosphamide-induced premature ovarian failure more effectively than HU-MSCs, potentially by preventing ferroptosis in granulosa cells via the KEAP1/NRF2/HO-1 pathway.

The mutation causes hairless mice due to mislocalized and dysfunctional HR protein.

This study analyzed patients with X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata and identified novel mutations in the emopamil-binding protein gene, highlighting the need for genetic testing alongside biochemical analysis for accurate diagnosis.

This systematic review found that interactions between patients with polycystic ovary syndrome and healthcare professionals often face challenges due to insufficient information sharing, inadequate patient support, and health system barriers.

This case report describes chronic iron deficiency anemia in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, highlighting the need for more data to guide treatment and cancer surveillance due to its rarity and mortality risk.

This study observed that epidermal-specific deletion of aPKCλ in mice disrupts hair follicle stem cell quiescence, leading to altered hair follicle cycling and skin anomalies.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

This article reviews idiopathic hirsutism, focusing on its definition, diagnosis, causes, and treatment options, without presenting new clinical findings.

This case report describes a 57-year-old Japanese male with a folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma containing unusual hair shaft fragments, providing insight into its characteristic histological features.

This review discusses the management of hirsutism, highlighting the use of oral contraceptives for PCOS-related hirsutism and hair removal methods for idiopathic cases, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study found that patients with primary cicatricial alopecia had an 18% higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases compared to control subjects, with certain subtypes showing a more pronounced increase.

This study reviewed the current understanding of congenital adrenal hyperplasia from 21-hydroxylase deficiency, highlighting the impact of universal newborn screening in reducing mortality and discussing ongoing treatment challenges and future therapeutic prospects.

This study found that six months of combined estrogen-progestin pill therapy led to a significant reduction in serum AMH levels and improvement in hyperandrogenic symptoms among women with PCOS.

This study reports the first case in South Korea of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome associated with malignant colon polyp and serrated adenoma.

This study found that in a transgenic mouse model, β-HPV infection led to increased skin thickness and proliferation of specific keratinocyte stem cells, which may contribute to squamous cell carcinoma development.

This case report identifies a previously undocumented nonsense mutation in DCAF17 in a Chinese patient with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, inherited from consanguineous parents.

Hairless protein helps control hair growth by regulating vitamin D receptor activity.

This study found that targeting CISD1 with the compound NL-1 reduced mitochondrial dysfunction and reactive oxygen species accumulation, protecting against cisplatin-induced hearing loss in cell models and mice, without affecting cisplatin's cancer-fighting effectiveness.

In this study, CHOP chemotherapy for intermediate grade Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma showed predictable toxicities but was generally well tolerated without treatment interruption among most patients.
