Hair proteins change location and structure as hair cells mature.

This article concludes that finasteride is a safe treatment for androgenetic alopecia and does not increase the risk of high-grade prostate cancer, despite past concerns from the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial.

This case report describes a 60-year-old postmenopausal woman with virilization and hirsutism caused by hilus-cell hyperplasia, which was confirmed following bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

This article discusses using high performance liquid chromatography to optimize mobile phase composition for separating synthesis products of Finasteride, without reporting new clinical results.

This article reviews historical approaches to electrolysis for permanent hair removal and suggests improvements in equipment, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that combining high-frequency ultrasound with clinical examination significantly improved the diagnostic accuracy of invisible subcutaneous lesions from 47.3% to 80.8%, especially for conditions like epidermoid cysts and lipomas, although it was less effective for rarer lesions such as dermatofibromas.

High protein diets improve wound healing and hair growth in calves, regardless of energy intake.

This study describes a new method using high-resolution mass spectrometry for analyzing multiple steroids in human scalp hair, with newborn hair showing the highest steroid concentrations among examined age groups.

This study found that feeding mice a high-fat diet with fish oil leads to hair loss through a mechanism involving omega-3 fatty acids and TNF-α signaling, with epidermal fatty acid binding protein playing a key role.

This study reports that low levels of HDL cholesterol and IGF-1 were associated with a higher risk of hair loss in middle-aged women, but causal relationships remain uncertain.

This study reports that mutations in human L-PGDS affect the entrance and exit of ligands in its binding cavity, suggesting these residues play a role in ligand interaction processes.

This study developed a rapid, precise, and specific chromatographic method to measure alpha-tocopheryl nicotinate in cosmetics, using alpha-tocopheryl acetate as an internal standard.

This article reviews the use of high-frequency ultrasonography to visualize nail units and scalps in dermatology, highlighting its potential benefits for disease assessment and treatment monitoring, but reports no new clinical results.

This study described a new wig coating technique using keratin and graphene oxide that significantly enhanced UV resistance, antistatic properties, and durability compared to traditional methods.

This study found that examining hair morphology provides deeper insights than classification, suggesting a potential population stratification artefact between hair curvature and cross-sectional shapes in the examined admixed African-European sample.

This study found that high-frequency ultrasonography may effectively distinguish different stages of alopecia areata and differentiate it from other scalp conditions.

This study found that arylsulfatase enzymes in hair follicles can convert the active form of minoxidil back to its inactive form, potentially affecting its effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that the Yangyin Qingre Huoxue Prescription effectively reduced the progression of atherosclerosis in mice, with lipid-regulating and anti-inflammatory functions and lower hepatotoxicity than simvastatin.

This study investigated different centrifugation systems and found that low-speed protocols and certified centrifuges produced better-quality platelet-rich fibrin and recommended using FDA-approved glass tubes for safe and effective regenerative outcomes.

This study found that combining high-density fat grafting with botulinum toxin A significantly improved symptoms of Raynaud’s phenomenon, including reducing pain and cold sensitivity, speeding up ulcer healing, and enhancing blood perfusion, compared to fat grafting alone.

This study used scRNA-Seq to map the transcriptional changes during zebrafish hair cell regeneration, revealing distinct phases including injury response, transient regeneration gene activation, and reactivation of developmental programs.

This study found that Medicare patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia had high adherence to 5-alpha reductase inhibitor therapy, which was associated with a reduced risk of needing surgical intervention.

This report shares the authors' experience using spironolactone for treating acne in a PCOS clinic, but provides no new clinical results.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have higher insulin resistance and lower serum high-molecular weight adiponectin, which may play a role in the condition's pathogenesis.

This article reviews how to identify and manage androgenic alopecia caused by hormonal contraceptives but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that male pattern baldness—especially moderate to severe—is an independent risk factor for prostate cancer and high-grade disease in men undergoing prostate biopsy.

Warts in HIV-positive men can have serious abnormal cell growth, needing careful analysis and treatment to prevent cancer.

This report describes two cases of Rapp–Hodgkin ectodermal dysplasia where refractory scalp erosions improved significantly with potent topical steroids; it also suggests a potential link between these scalp conditions and erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in elderly patients.

HEV light can harm or help skin and scalp, so safe exposure guidelines are needed.

This study identified several rare genetic variants related to insulin resistance in women with PCOS, highlighting the potential for monogenic conditions in patients with extreme or atypical phenotypes.
