This study found that an adapted version of the Hamilton-Norwood classification improves reliability in assessing pattern hair loss and could aid population studies examining its association with cardiovascular disease.

This study found an association between atopic dermatitis and autoimmune diseases in both adults and children, with women more likely to experience these complications, but further research is needed due to limited participant numbers.

In this study, injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) was found to enhance the proliferative, migratory, and hair-inducing abilities of dermal papilla cells more effectively than platelet-rich plasma through the TGF-β/Smad pathway.

This review discusses the use of zebrafish larvae as an alternative model for studying ototoxicity, facilitating large-scale screening for otoprotective compounds, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that in male rats, hesperidin co-administration ameliorated finasteride-induced testicular toxicity by reducing oxidative stress and improving antioxidant status, sperm parameters, and enzyme activity compared to finasteride treatment alone.

This study assessed the dermatologic potential of western red cedar, white spruce, birch, balsam poplar, and black spruce used in First Nations medicine, highlighting several active compounds relevant to dermatology, but noted a lack of high-quality evidence in existing research.

This review focuses on the various skin toxicities caused by chemotherapeutic and targeted tumor therapy drugs, including rashes, keratoacanthoma, and more severe conditions like Stevens-Johnson syndrome, without presenting new clinical results.

This case report describes a patient in whom vitiligo was induced by diphenylcyclopropenone treatment for alopecia universalis, highlighting the potential overlap of susceptibility genes between the two conditions.

This study reviewed the role of inflammasomes in autoimmune skin diseases, highlighting their contribution to the pathogenesis of conditions such as vitiligo, alopecia areata, and psoriasis, and suggesting that targeting inflammasome dysregulation may offer new therapeutic options.

This study reports that γ-ray exposure in rats led to dermal endothelial proliferation, new vessel formation around hair follicles, and increased inflammatory markers, suggesting possible early stimulatory effects on hair growth.

This study reports that Elvitegravir, a drug currently approved for other uses, shows potential as a neuro- and mitoprotective agent by attenuating mitochondrial damage caused by NMDA receptors in primary mouse cortical neurons.

Burn scars form abnormally due to changes in wound healing, and more research is needed to improve treatments.

The study highlights Teak's (Tectona grandis) diverse applications beyond high-quality timber, emphasizing its bioactive compounds' pharmacological potential in cancer treatment and other uses across traditional medicine, cosmetics, and biodiesel production.

In this study, a newly engineered scaffold, PADM-MX-Ag-Si@Dox, demonstrated potential as a multifunctional biomaterial for postoperative melanoma treatment by controlling drug release, enhancing wound healing, and enabling real-time tumor surveillance through temperature, pH, and electrical stimuli.

This study found that men with male pattern baldness are perceived as older, and shaving heads increased perceived dominance, but neither influenced leader preference in different contexts.

Among families with pediatric brain disease, this study identified over 200 novel genetic causes, revealing potential treatment points using drug repurposing or nutritional supplementation.

This review discusses biotin's role in nutrition and suggests no benefit to supplementing it for hair, nails, and skin in healthy individuals; it reports preliminary findings that high dosages may help some multiple sclerosis patients.

This study found that taurine may have potential as an anti-alopecia agent, particularly against chemical stress-induced hair loss, and could be effective when used with other treatments like finasteride.

This study identified numerous drugs with potential to trigger vitiligo, cautioning that these pharmacovigilance findings need further validation and that patients on these medications should be monitored for vitiligo development.

This study introduces a framework to help laypeople evaluate scientific information based on its relevance to specific needs by categorizing causal information into two epistemic games, enhancing their ability to make informed decisions, with a focus on genetics education for practical application.

This study identified three patient groups based on the psychological and social impact of vitiligo, with the most affected group experiencing severe psychosocial burdens despite often having mild physician-reported disease severity.

This study provides an analysis of global publications on TLS, offering insights into the role of TLS in immunotherapy and suggesting future research directions.

In this pilot study, researchers found that betulin did not conclusively inhibit hair loss or promote regrowth in patients with hypothyroidism when compared to placebo.

This study reported that a 3D-printed LED photobiomodulation device is technically and financially feasible, but requires further experimental and clinical testing before being used in human healthcare.

This review highlights the potential of genetically or metabolically engineered live biotherapeutic products (eLBPs) for skin repair and disease treatment but emphasizes that translating these innovations into practical clinical applications remains challenging, requiring further research and development.

This study examined the relationship between asprosin levels and polycystic ovary syndrome, finding no statistically significant difference in asprosin levels between patients and healthy controls, although differences in fetuin a levels were significant.

In this study, researchers developed a rapid platform using primary human lung tissues to identify SARS-CoV-2 targets and test antiviral compounds, achieving highly reproducible results across viral variants.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing late unexpected consequences of COVID-19 infection in individuals who survived acute hypoxic respiratory failure and includes no new research results.

This study found that loss of the folliculin protein delays transferrin receptor recycling, leading to iron deficiency and suggesting a role in the mechanisms of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome.

This study observed that five cases of primary cicatricial alopecia showed an excellent response to a combination of oral zinc and long-pulsed Nd:YAG 1064-nm laser treatment, suggesting this approach may be beneficial for certain types of this condition.
