In this study, significant differences in the expression of type I IRS keratin genes were observed in the groins of three sheep breeds during wool growth, related to hair follicle density.

Entadfi, a mix of finasteride and tadalafil, is used for BPH.

This case report highlights significant improvement in a patient with severe alopecia areata who responded well to ivarmacitinib after a suboptimal response to another JAK inhibitor, tofacitinib, suggesting ivarmacitinib as a potential alternative for tofacitinib-refractory cases.

This article questions whether frontal fibrosing alopecia and fibrosing androgeneic patterned hair loss are overlapping conditions or stages of the same process, calling for further research to clarify their underlying factors.

This study found that 87% of patients with stage IIA and IIB melanoma treated with low-dose alpha-interferon reported cutaneous side effects, with the most common being hair loss.

This study demonstrated that using finasteride impurity as a non-isotopically labeled internal standard in paper spray ionization–mass spectrometry can effectively and efficiently measure finasteride tablet dissolution, achieving results comparable to high-performance liquid chromatography.

This review reported that 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors were effective in stabilizing disease progression or reducing the rate of progression in some cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, though evidence on safety remains limited.

This study focused on developing agarose/fucoidan hydrogels for the encapsulation of pancreatic cells, reporting that these materials supported cell viability and self-organization into pseudo-islets over 7 days, highlighting potential for diabetes treatment applications.

Isoconazole nitrate stays effective in skin and hair follicles for up to two weeks after use.

This study proposes that seasonal alopecia and reproductive changes in six female fossas at the San Diego Zoo may be linked to hormonal changes associated with reproductive activity.

Certain drugs and supplements may contribute to hair loss in the frontal hairline in older women.

This study reported that the Biofibre® hair implantation system, used on 1,518 patients with various degrees of baldness and causes of alopecia, delivered immediate and visible results without scarring or hospitalization, which greatly improved patients' self-esteem and psychological well-being.

This study in Morocco found that all women with frontal fibrosing alopecia presented frontotemporal hairline recession, with trichoscopic features such as perifollicular erythema and follicular hyperkeratosis being indicative of the condition, and suggested a potential link between cosmetic products or emotional factors and the disease.

This case report describes a 50-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia who showed no improvement despite multiple treatments, including intralesional triamcinolone and topical glucocorticoids.

This source reports that the Indian Journal of Plastic Surgery received its first Journal Impact Factor of 0.8 for 2022, a notable achievement highlighting its significant contributions to the field of plastic surgery.

EFBL offers hidden incisions, faster recovery, and fewer risks, but may raise hairline and cost more.

This study describes a newly observed "inflammatory vellus involvement" pattern in early frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may lead to misdiagnosis due to the absence of typical histological features.

This article discusses the pseudo 'fringe sign' in frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting that it is not solely related to traction, and it reports no new clinical results.

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 study found that iontophoresis with growth factor cocktail including fibroblast growth factor 5-short significantly increased hair density in patients with androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks.

This study identified the Itpr3 gene as responsible for the tufted hair loss phenotype in the BTBR mouse strain.

In this study, researchers found potential evidence of inducible skin-associated lymphoid tissue (iSALT) in alopecia areata patients undergoing topical immunotherapy, which may suggest an essential role in treatment efficacy.

This study found that frontal fibrosing alopecia involves distinct molecular changes, such as downregulation of steroid and cholesterol pathways and upregulation of fibrotic and immune response genes, which may help guide treatment strategies.

This case report describes a 39-year-old woman whose dermatomyositis-systemic lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome symptoms resolved after switching to tofacitinib.
