This proof-of-concept study reported that a new, ultra-fast, one-step immunohistochemistry method improved the interpretation of Mohs surgery slides, particularly for poorly differentiated tumors.

This review discusses how the hormonal changes of menopause affect skin and hair, highlighting improvements in skin symptoms like dryness and reduced wound healing with estrogen supplementation, and advises healthcare providers to consider broader potential benefits of menopausal hormone therapy when consulting patients.

This study explores Unani and modern medical perspectives on hirsutism, highlighting similarities in their understanding of its connection with amenorrhea and hyperandrogenism, and suggests further integrative research.

This study found that KAP and KRTAP genes positively correlate with the cashmere growth cycle, and their regulation aligns with the growth phases of cashmere in secondary hair follicles.

This study reports the first keratin gene mutation affecting the tail domain, leading to a unique cytoskeletal abnormality and severe epidermal hyperkeratosis, highlighting the tail domain's critical role in keratin organization.

This study found that ovarian suppression significantly reduced serum testosterone and androstenedione in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome and idiopathic hirsutism, with hair growth rates decreasing more in polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This study suggests that deregulation of sonic and desert hedgehog signaling in mouse skin can lead to altered epidermal stem cell activity and lesions similar to human basal cell carcinoma, indicating these cancers may originate outside the stem cell population.

In this study of reproductive-aged women in Tehran, idiopathic hirsutism and polycystic ovary syndrome were reported to be prevalent, with rates influenced by the screening methods used.

This review discusses idiopathic hirsutism, potential underlying mechanisms, and various therapeutic approaches without providing new clinical results, and emphasizes the need for further research on well-defined patient groups.

This review explores how sex differences influence the pathophysiology, incidence, and treatment outcomes of ischaemic heart disease, and emphasizes the need for more sex-specific research.

This study concluded that steroid deficiencies were significantly more severe in men with panhypopituitarism than in those with isolated gonadotropin deficiency.

This article examines the role and composition of integral hair lipids in forming a protective barrier similar to the skin's epidermal lipid layer and reports no new findings about their effects.

This observational study aims to more accurately detect and localize Propionibacterium acnes in acne lesions by combining multiple microbiological visualization techniques, but it does not present new results on their causality to acne.

This article reviews androgen excess and cardiometabolic risks in women, highlighting increased cardiovascular disease risk in those with polycystic ovary syndrome, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that mTORC1 may play a role in regulating the timing of hair growth cycle phases, particularly the initiation of the anagen phase.

This study suggests that women with idiopathic hirsutism have increased 5α-reductase activity, indicated by elevated levels of 3α-diol glucuronide; further research is needed to assess its clinical biomarker potential.

This study reported that Indian hedgehog (Ihh) signaling plays a crucial role in regulating tumor progression and metastasis in epithelial cancers, with Ihh deficiency leading to increased malignancy and metastasis in mice.

This study found that EDA and EDAR are expressed throughout cashmere goat fetal development and play a critical role in hair follicle formation by influencing gene expression in fibroblasts and epithelial cells.

This study found a previously unreported ST14 gene mutation in a patient with ichthyosis-hypotrichosis syndrome, highlighting novel skin and hair characteristics and emphasizing the critical role of the Asp482 amino acid in matriptase activation.

This review discusses the current knowledge on using special and immunohistochemical stains for diagnosing hair disorders, concluding that no stains are recommended for routine use in hair pathology.

Blood AMH levels are higher in women with PCOS than in those with other similar conditions.

This study found that 11-oxygenated androgens were higher in women with PCOS compared to those with idiopathic hirsutism, with no difference from controls, and higher Bisphenol A levels in obese women with PCOS may worsen metabolic issues.

This study suggests that 5-ADIOL-S may contribute to the synthesis of potent androgens in peripheral tissues, and 3 alpha-DIOL-S could be a marker of androgen metabolism in various female patient groups.

In this clinical study, researchers observed that a shampoo formulated with Inula helenium and Caesalpinia Sappan extracts significantly increased total hair count after 16 and 24 weeks in patients with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting it may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.

This study found that GLI1 RNA CISH was highly sensitive and specific for distinguishing basal cell carcinoma from nonfollicular epithelial neoplasms but not from most benign follicular tumors.

Elderly patients have more severe hidradenitis suppurativa and may need different treatments.

This study concluded that the Wnt signaling pathway does not significantly influence human keratoacanthoma development, but the overexpression of Sox9 suggests alternate signaling involvement.

This study developed immortalized human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal-like stromal cells (iHF-MSCs) as a consistent source of therapeutic secretome, reporting their superior immunomodulatory and regenerative performance, potentially advancing cell-free therapies for inflammation and tissue repair.

This study concluded that androgenetic alopecia may predict ischemic heart disease, and recommended that patients with AGA be screened for coronary artery disease.

This study found that androgen receptors were more prevalent in bald areas compared to non-bald areas in individuals with androgenic alopecia, suggesting a link between increased local androgen activity and hair loss.
