March 2014 in “Hair transplant forum international” This article mentions an interesting case of a donor site from a previous issue, but reports no new research findings.
24 citations
,
May 2019 in “PLOS genetics” This study reports that compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the HEPHL1 gene in a child were associated with abnormal hair and cognitive issues, linking altered ferroxidase activity to hair disorders.
January 2007 in “Dermatologic Surgery” This study presents a new surgical technique that frequently results in minimal scars visible to the naked eye, marking a significant improvement over traditional methods.
October 2022 in “Hair Transplantation” This review discusses common cosmetic problems encountered in hair transplant surgery and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the need to consider design and progressive hair loss.

July 2022 in “BMC neuroscience” In this study, intranasal delivery of hair follicle-derived stem cells improved neurological function and reduced brain damage in a rat model of ischemic stroke.
November 2021 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This case report describes the first recorded instance of posterior cerebral artery dissection in a patient with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus, which uniquely progressed from cerebral infarction to subarachnoid hemorrhage.
October 2022 in “Hair Transplantation” This chapter examines common and less common complications associated with the strip method of hair transplantation and discusses management strategies, but it does not report new clinical results.
October 2023 in “European Journal of Dermatology” In a study of 147 patients with androgenic alopecia, those who received hair transplantation combined with platelet-rich plasma injections experienced better hair regrowth and smaller areas of hair loss compared to those who only had hair transplantation.
May 2024 in “Cardiometry” This study documented that after hair transplantation, 34 patients with white or gray hair in the donor area experienced color repigmentation, with most regaining their original blackish color in the recipient area over a 1-year follow-up.

April 2025 in “Pediatric Dermatology” This study identified and described a new form of alopecia termed "macular alopecia," predominantly affecting young Hispanic/Latinx females, characterized by small macules on the scalp with a high rate (63%) of spontaneous resolution in about five months.
April 2021 in “Authorea (Authorea)” In this case report, a woman with segmental vitiligo and hemifacial atrophy showed signs of stabilization after treatment with chloroquine and betamethasone pulse, suggesting a common underlying cause for these dermatoses.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that blocking apoptosis during the catagen phase in mice disrupts hair follicle stem cell niche architecture, delaying subsequent hair regeneration cycles.

April 2020 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In this study, researchers found that in growing skin tissue, epidermal wound healing occurs at the expense of normal skin development, as it impairs hair follicle growth and does not activate tissue morphogenesis genes.
July 2021 in “Anais brasileiros de dermatologia/Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia” This article reports on a family with six members diagnosed with monilethrix, highlighting varying degrees of alopecia linked to this rare hair shaft defect.
December 2021 in “OPAL (Open@LaTrobe) (La Trobe University)” This study found that knocking out the Hars2 gene in mouse cochlear hair cells led to mitochondrial dysfunction and ROS stress, resulting in progressive hearing loss and differential effects on inner and outer hair cells.
4 citations
,
July 2013 in “The Journal of Dermatology” This article reports a case of lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei affecting the scalp, which led to scarring hair loss, but it provides no new experimental findings.
