June 2013 in “International Journal of Dermatology” This study found that different types of seborrheic keratosis demonstrate diverse differentiation patterns, highlighting its undifferentiated and hyperproliferative state with varying keratinization directions.
January 2026 in “DOAJ (DOAJ: Directory of Open Access Journals)” This study evaluated 129 patients with androgenetic alopecia and identified an inflammatory pattern of perifollicular infiltration linked to treatment resistance. Targeting both hormonal and immune pathways improved outcomes for 67% of patients, suggesting inflammation may play a role in some cases of stubborn hair loss.
This study found that scalp melanoma in areas with androgenetic alopecia presents with more frequent detrimental mutations and may have a poorer prognosis due to late diagnosis linked to hair concealment.
