In this report, a 51-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus presented with recurrent joint pain and irregular patches of hair loss, raising differential diagnoses of androgenetic alopecia, lupus-related alopecia, or seborrheic dermatitis.

This study found that among women with hirsutism, the most common type of non-scarring alopecia observed was androgenetic alopecia with telogen effluvium.

Trichoscopy is a useful tool for monitoring hair and scalp diseases.

Alopecia areata severity is linked to increased TH1 and TH2 activity.

This study found that using a fractional CO2 laser in combination with minoxidil significantly increased hair count and thickness in Egyptian men with androgenetic alopecia.

In this review, BTXA treatment was reported to effectively increase hair density and improve follicle health in androgenetic alopecia patients by enhancing scalp blood flow and reducing inflammation, without significant adverse effects.

This review discusses the clinical efficacy, safety, and mechanisms of Autologous Micrografting Technology for androgenetic alopecia, reporting significant short-term improvements in hair density and thickness.

This study highlights alopecia areata incognita as a unique form of alopecia areata that shares features with telogen effluvium and may relate to androgenetic alopecia, noting its sudden onset and favorable response to topical steroids.

This review discusses current pharmacological proposals for treating alopecia areata, highlighting the need for individualized treatment plans due to limited clinical trial evidence and potential for spontaneous remission.

This study identified four hub genes that are closely linked to the causative factors of androgenetic alopecia, suggesting potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets.

JAK inhibitors show promise for treating alopecia areata, but more research is needed.

This study found that loss-of-function mutations in the HOXC13 gene cause autosomal-recessive pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia, emphasizing its role in hair and nail development.

Emerging therapies like JAK inhibitors show promise for hair regrowth in alopecia areata.

This study found that trichoscopy can effectively differentiate scalp psoriasis from seborrheic dermatitis by identifying specific trichoscopic patterns such as hidden hairs, signet ring vessels, and comma vessels.

This article discusses the advantages and different techniques of dermoscopy for skin lesion visualization and reviewing no new clinical results; it emphasizes the integration of polarized light and the importance of training.

This case study reports a 70-year-old man with treatment-resistant pityriasis rubra pilaris achieving complete clinical remission with ustekinumab, adding to evidence supporting biologic therapy when TNF inhibitors are unsuitable.

This consensus report outlines Brazilian dermatologists' recommendations for treating alopecia areata, highlighting intralesional corticosteroids for localized cases and systemic therapy for extensive, active disease, along with monitoring side effects.

This study found that trichoscopy revealed significant differences in certain variables, such as the brown peripilar sign and white peripilar sign, which may aid in diagnosing early and late stages of androgenetic alopecia.

This mathematical model of alopecia areata illustrates how inflammatory autoimmune responses interrupt the anagen phase of hair growth, and may help evaluate treatments and identify new therapeutic targets.

This study found that certain metabolites from the plants Bidens pilosa, Calophyllum inophyllum, and Fagraea berteroana may support hair follicle growth by promoting dermal papilla cell proliferation, supporting their traditional use in hair care.

This review explores recent advancements in precise cell manipulation technologies, detailing the status, principles, benefits, limitations, and future potential of methods like single-cell manipulation and 3D bioprinting for cells and tissue engineering.

This review discusses pili torti, a rare hair shaft disorder, and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the need to investigate underlying conditions in affected individuals.

The authors concluded that trichoscopy is a valuable noninvasive tool for diagnosing and monitoring nonscarring alopecia, aiding in the identification of new hair signs in difficult cases.

This study found significant structural and compositional differences in hair affected by alopecia areata compared to healthy hair, using a range of physico-chemical investigation methods.

In this study, researchers used transcriptome sequencing to identify various noncoding RNAs in the skin tissues of Jiangnan cashmere goats and found that certain long noncoding RNAs may play a role in regulating cashmere fiber fineness, offering new insights for breeding programs.

This study identified a novel SCF mRNA splice variant in white merino sheep skin, which may play a role in hair follicle melanogenesis.

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 article reviews the literature on the off-label use of botulinum toxin for dermatological conditions, highlighting its potential effectiveness in treating rosacea, anal fissures, Raynaud phenomenon, hypertrophic scars, keloids, and hidradenitis suppurativa.

This study found that 3D-cultured dermal papilla cells more accurately mimic in vivo conditions compared to 2D cultures, enhancing our understanding of molecular mechanisms in androgen-induced alopecia.
