This review discusses severe insulin resistance syndromes, highlighting their diagnostic challenges, potential novel therapies like leptin replacement, and suggests metformin and lifestyle changes in its absence; no new clinical results are reported.

In this study, petroleum ether extract of Citrullus colocynthis fruit effectively promoted hair growth in a mouse model of androgen-induced alopecia, showing comparable results to the standard treatment, finasteride.

This study suggests that inactivation of β-catenin is necessary for chick retina regeneration, as it allows cells to enter the cell cycle during injury and promotes regeneration without needing FGF2.

This study identified multiple loss of function variants in the HR gene linked to the unique hair coat phenotype in lykoi cats, also known as werewolf cats.

This study found that reproductive gynecologists are the primary source of referrals for male infertility evaluations, with many men referred before completing a male factor investigation even when using assisted reproductive technologies or lifestyle factors like testosterone replacement.

New treatments like JAK inhibitors show promise for reversing alopecia areata.

This article reviews treatments focused on stimulating collagen synthesis and improving skin appearance through methods like mechanical dermabrasion and laser surgery, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study identified the rough coat mutation in mice, but found that LOXL is not the causal gene, although its downregulation might contribute to related phenotypic changes.

This study reviewed the efficacy of mechanical fractionation techniques to produce tissue stromal vascular fraction (tSVF) and found that tSVF injections are particularly effective for conditions like osteoarthritis and wound healing, with centrifugation before fractionation improving isolation efficiency regardless of preparation method.

This report describes a study of estuarine bed-sediment quality in New Jersey and New York post-Hurricane Sandy, focusing on contamination extent and potential long-term impacts, with no new findings included.

This review discusses treatment approaches for alopecia areata, including promising novel therapies, and reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes recent findings on how the dysregulated PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway contributes to immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorders and discusses the potential of natural products, synthetic compounds, and biologic agents in their treatment. However, it emphasizes the need for further research to develop effective therapies.

This paper describes the development of diagnostic criteria for several enduring sexual dysfunction conditions following the use of certain medications, highlighting common sexual and non-sexual symptoms.

Children's hair loss has many causes and requires careful diagnosis and personalized treatment, including emotional support.

This review discusses the genetics, therapy, and prognosis of childhood alopecia areata, noting that while current treatments are not curative, new modalities may improve future outcomes; it reports no new clinical results.

This book chapter discusses the mechanisms and prevention of selenium toxicity in livestock and reports no new experimental results; it emphasizes reducing selenium in the human food chain through animal products.

This study compiled an archive of 684 genes associated with monogenic hair disorders, identifying previously unrecognized components of Hippo signaling and proposing a new biologically-grounded disease taxonomy.

This study found that oil extracted from Prinsepia utilis seeds is physicochemically stable and suitable for use in manufacturing ketoconazole soap, which met quality control standards and may provide a cost-effective alternative to expensive additives in cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications.

In this study, researchers identified loss of function variants in the HR gene as likely causes of the distinct roaning hair coat seen in lykoi cats.

This review found that both oral and topical soy-based products showed positive effects on various skin-related outcomes, including aging signs and skin barrier function, but topical applications were more likely to improve skin barrier status compared to oral supplementation.

In this study, the combination of full-thickness skin column grafts and the TSN6 peptide improved wound healing quality in pigs by enhancing epidermal maturation compared to other treatments.

This article highlights that hormonal changes during menopause can significantly affect hair health, leading to decreased hair density, altered texture, and increased hair disorders, which may subsequently impact emotional well-being in women.

In this study, researchers found that male and female APCHi mice exposed to ionizing radiation showed near-normal lipid and metabolite levels, suggesting activated protein C may offer some protective effects against radiation-induced damage affecting organ systems.

This review discusses various microneedle technologies for long-acting drug delivery, highlighting design considerations and challenges in bringing these minimally invasive devices to market, but it reports no new clinical results.

This expert group provided recommendations for preparing and using platelet-rich plasma in treating androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a manual double-spin method and specific dosing, although further studies on injectable platelet-rich fibrin are needed.

In this network meta-analysis, the researchers reported that topical minoxidil 5% was the most effective off-label therapy for increasing hair density in men with androgenetic alopecia, while other treatments like melatonin and cetirizine showed potential benefits, highlighting a need for further comparative trials.

In this study, digital treatment for androgenetic alopecia over six months led to significant improvements in quality of life among Brazilian men, particularly for those with consistent program adherence, although the absence of an in-person comparator limits causal conclusions.

This study found that patients with vitiligo in the United States had higher rates of autoimmune conditions, infections, and skin cancer compared to matched controls, with higher vitiligo prevalence in Asian and Hispanic populations.

In this study, researchers observed that chronic stress affected wild-derived house mice differently by sex, with females showing less weight gain and distinct behavioral changes, while males exhibited higher hair corticosterone levels, suggesting divergent coping strategies and implications for sex-specific stress assessment protocols.

In this review, researchers reported that pyroptosis, a type of inflammatory cell death linked to inflammasome activity, is a key factor in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata and may present new therapeutic opportunities, though most treatments are still in early research stages.
