Wearing wigs or hairpieces improves self-esteem, adaptability, and competence in women with alopecia areata.

This survey reported that 37.6% of male AGA patients were satisfied with their treatments, with the highest satisfaction for 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, and revealed differing perceptions between physicians and patients about AGA's impact on confidence and treatment involvement.

Topical corticosteroids can help treat severe alopecia areata when other treatments fail.

This letter reports on the impact wigs may have on the perceived quality of life in patients with androgenetic alopecia.

This report presents a case where female pattern hair loss might be linked to tamoxifen use, with increased androgen receptor expression observed in the affected scalp area.

This letter to the editor reports no new results but discusses the effect of hairpieces on the perceived quality of life in female pattern hair loss patients.

This study found that histidine decarboxylase is crucial for the hair-inducing ability of newborn mouse dermal cells, with its expression significantly decreasing in the first few days after birth.

This study found that dutasteride increased hair growth metrics significantly more than finasteride in Korean men with AGA, but a meta-analysis suggests no overall significant efficacy difference between the two drugs.

This article discusses the history of modern hair restoration surgery beginning with Dr. Norman Orentreich's introduction of the macrograft technique in 1959 and reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, a biopsy was essential for diagnosing congenital alopecia areata despite suggestive clinical and trichoscopic evidence, as no non-invasive reliable diagnostic methods currently exist, highlighting the continued importance of this invasive procedure.

In this case report, a nine-year-old girl with both chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and alopecia universalis showed improvement in muscle weakness and hair loss after treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin and corticosteroids.

Low-level laser therapy seems to promote hair growth but requires more research to confirm its effectiveness.

Keratin 79 cells help form and regenerate hair canals.

FGF9 from certain cells can trigger new hair growth during wound healing, but humans have fewer of these cells, which may limit hair regrowth.

This review discusses recent genome-wide association studies identifying novel candidate genes for various forms of alopecia, providing insights into their pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that Asian patients have few racial differences in trichoscopy compared to Caucasian patients, except for certain features like greater mean hair diameter and masking effects by normal skin color.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing a rare case of Leydig cell tumor with type I diabetes mellitus causing female pattern hair loss, but it contains no abstract or new clinical findings.

Scientists successfully created fully functional hair follicles using bioengineering methods and stem cells.

Six new risk spots for early hair loss were found, which also link to Parkinson's disease and lower fertility. Two genes, FOXA2 and HDAC4, could be new treatment targets. Hair loss might also be connected to heart disease, metabolic syndrome, and prostate cancer.

Prostaglandin D2, found in higher levels in bald scalps, stops hair growth, suggesting that blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.

5% minoxidil foam used once daily is as effective as 2% minoxidil solution used twice daily for hair loss in women, but with fewer side effects like itching and dandruff.

Bald men with male pattern baldness still have hair stem cells, but lack certain cells needed for hair growth.

Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, may be passed through T cells and has genetic links, while treatments vary in effectiveness. Male pattern baldness can be treated with finasteride and is influenced by androgens in hair follicles.

This study found that acne keloidalis nuchae was associated with pseudofolliculitis barbae, chronic scalp folliculitis, and aspects of the metabolic syndrome, particularly hypertension, in the examined population.

This study found that the maternal nutritional status during early pregnancy significantly influenced epigenetic changes in offspring, as maternal diet altered DNA methylation at human metastable epialleles.

In this study, male participants with early androgenetic alopecia experienced a significant increase in hair growth rate after applying topical lipoid cepharanthine lotion for six months.

This study suggests that early-stage dermal papilla cell-derived exosomes may enhance adipose stem cells' hair inductive abilities through specific miRNAs.

Alopecia areata significantly affects emotional well-being and quality of life, especially in younger adults.

This case report is the first to associate NEMO syndrome with systemic lupus erythematosus, suggesting a potential role for NF-kB essential modulator in the pathogenesis of SLE.

This study found that human dermal fibroblasts can promote the viability and proliferation of microvascular endothelial cells in vitro, revealing important interactions at play in hair growth.
