This study found a high prevalence of beard and eyebrow alopecia in male patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, and suggests a potential link between hormonal imbalances and the condition.

This study suggests that dermal stem/progenitor cells can be enriched by intracellular granularity and display high proliferation and differentiation potential in vitro, distinguishing them from other fibroblasts and progenitors.

This review highlights available treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting that 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, intralesional steroids, and hydroxychloroquine currently have the most evidence supporting their use, while other treatments show variable results and require further study.

In this study, a 7-year-old male ferret was diagnosed with hyperadrenocorticism complicated by dilatative cardiomyopathy, chronic active hepatitis, and renal disease, following symptoms including progressive hair loss and severe dehydration.

This study found that patients with hidradenitis suppurativa had significantly higher levels of cell-free DNA in their serum compared to healthy controls, suggesting its potential as a biomarker for the disease.

This article presents two cases of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans and reviews its features, highlighting characteristic progression from keratosis pilaris in infancy to cicatricial alopecia in childhood.

In this study, researchers created a comprehensive transcriptome map of human hair follicle compartments, identifying compartment-specific genes and providing a resource for potential therapeutic interventions.

In this study, the researchers reported that patient impacts and symptoms of hidradenitis suppurativa, as assessed by HSIA and HSSA measures, are associated with clinical characteristics such as the number of abscesses and inflammatory nodules.

This study developed a new mask-free method using digital micromirror and microfluidic systems to create multicellular heterospheroids for drug screening, finding that heterospheroids exhibit higher drug resistance and combinatorial drugs are more effective than single drugs in cancer therapeutic applications.

This study observed that the SREBF1 mutation c.1669C>T (p.Arg557Cys) may act as a recurrent hotspot mutation associated with both hereditary mucoepithelial dysplasia and autosomal-dominant ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia syndrome, suggesting they may be on the same clinical spectrum.

This review discusses the use of finasteride for treating hidradenitis suppurativa and reports favorable outcomes in several cases, suggesting it could be an effective and safe option for certain patients.

This study reported that prompt diagnosis and treatment with 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors and topical immunomodulators are key to mitigating the effects of frontal fibrosing alopecia and preventing permanent hair loss.

This correspondence discusses proposed updates to the diagnostic criteria for frontal fibrosing alopecia, emphasizing the importance of differentiating it from other types of alopecia.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that fibroblasts derived from human embryonic stem cells can be used to create tissue-engineered dermal substitutes, effectively repairing mouse skin wounds within 20 days, highlighting a promising method for clinical applications in skin repair.

In this study, the researchers developed a computer-aided imaging system to quantitatively measure baldness in Chinese women with female pattern hair loss, potentially improving the precision of severity evaluation compared to traditional scales.

This report details a refined hair transplantation method called direct no-shave follicular unit excision (DNS FUE), which avoids donor-site shaving and minimizes follicular trauma while yielding high patient satisfaction.

This article reviews congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a group of rare genetic disorders affecting steroid synthesis, and highlights the need for specific therapy and ongoing monitoring, but reports no new clinical findings.

This hypothesis article explores frontal fibrosing alopecia as a potential autoimmune condition and calls for future research to investigate this possibility, but reports no new clinical results.

This study developed a method to convert fibroblasts into sweat gland-like cells, suggesting potential for regenerating damaged skin and restoring sweat gland function.

This study found that reduced plasma DIAPH1 levels were associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting DIAPH1 as a potential predictive factor for the condition.

This study found that CLD-hFGF2 hydrogels improved healing in deep second-degree burn wounds more effectively than hydrogels alone or direct administration of CLD-hFGF2.

This study identified the FGF5:c.578C>T variant as linked to long hair in Akitas in Japan and suggests that genetic testing could help improve their breeding practices and welfare.

This study reports that a new DART-HRMS method can effectively analyze intact hair for drug use timelines, with cocaine detection aligning with forensic standards and identifying multiple drugs from high-resolution data.

In this study, researchers observed that overweight Taiwanese women with PCOS who carry the HSD3B1 1245C allele have a significantly higher risk of developing androgenic alopecia compared to those with the wild-type allele.

This report suggests that patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax should be evaluated for FLCN mutations, as they may indicate Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome and associated cancer risks.

This study found that women with female pattern hair loss exhibited hormonal imbalances, with the Free Androgen Index being a particularly effective diagnostic marker.

This case report describes regression of hidradenitis suppurativa lesions in two patients after 16 weeks of adalimumab treatment.

This case report highlights the importance of considering frontal fibrosing alopecia in young women, emphasizing early diagnosis to preserve hair and limit inflammation.

This study found that injection of adipose-derived adult stem cells improved hair density, thickness, and reduced inflammation in women with female pattern hair loss over 24 weeks.
