This study introduced the BASP classification, a new system for categorizing pattern hair loss in both men and women, and applied it to analyze 2213 Korean subjects.

This study examined the incidence of hyperkalemia in women over 65 with female pattern hair loss and spironolactone use, but the findings on risk remain unclear.

This article is a letter discussing variations in male sex hormone levels among different pattern subtypes of androgenetic alopecia and does not present new research results.

This study concluded that formulations of celery and candlenut extracts meet the necessary criteria for use as a spray preparation aimed at promoting hair growth, based on evaluations of physical properties and consistency.

In this study, researchers identified wound-induced gene expression programs during regeneration initiation in planarians, highlighting the importance of the runt-1 gene and other conserved genes in the process.

This study, involving a retrospective analysis of 24 patients in France, found that paradoxical psoriasiform alopecic reactions on the scalp associated with TNFα-targeted therapies for inflammatory bowel disease are rare yet non-scarring, with all patients achieving complete hair regrowth within two months after treatment adjustments.

This case report describes a 77-year-old woman with female pattern hair loss and elevated testosterone levels, who showed no improvement with minoxidil and lacked adrenal tumors on imaging.

This proposal presents a standardized system for naming areas of the balding scalp to improve communication among hair restoration professionals, defining major regions and introducing new landmarks.

This study suggests that integrating scalp reduction into male pattern baldness treatment may reduce time, trouble, and cost by about one third compared to conventional hair restoration methods.

This study found that minoxidil significantly increases VEGF mRNA and protein expression in dermal papilla cells, suggesting a role in enhancing hair follicle vascularization in androgenetic alopecia.

This study presents a new classification of adult human scalp hair patterns based on high-resolution photographs, which may assist hair restoration surgeons and dermatologists in determining appropriate punch size for follicular unit extraction.

This study found that iron deficiency was common in both women with hair loss and control subjects, with no higher incidence in the hair loss group.

This study found that males with early onset androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower serum vitamin D levels compared to age-matched healthy controls, although no correlation between the severity of alopecia and vitamin D levels was observed.

This study suggests that vitamin D deficiency is likely not involved in the development of frontal fibrosing alopecia, as patients showed similar vitamin D levels to those with female pattern hair loss.

This case study reports a rare instance of mucinous cystadenoma causing severe virilization in a postmenopausal woman, highlighting a possible link with rapidly progressive hyperandrogenism.

This study observed that hair density and growth rates vary by location and age, and the presence of thin hairs predominates in younger women with mild patterned hair loss.

This review discusses the potential role of oxidative stress in hair graying and age-related alopecia, emphasizing the need for new strategies to counteract these effects, but reports no new results.

This study using Mendelian randomization in UK Biobank data suggests that lifelong increased free testosterone may have mixed effects, including increased bone density and prostate cancer risk, warranting well-powered trials to address uncertainties.

Hair diameter diversity is a key sign for diagnosing and managing male pattern baldness.

This case report highlights the diagnostic challenge of identifying androgen-secreting ovarian Leydig cell tumors in postmenopausal women when imaging fails to reveal masses, emphasizing the usefulness of ovarian vein sampling for localization.

This study found that vitamin D plays a major role in the premature onset of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia who also met criteria for the male PCOS-equivalent may have impaired gonadal steroidogenesis, suggesting increased risk of future gonadal dysfunction.

This study found that testosterone and 5α-dihydrotestosterone induced apoptosis in dermal papilla cells from nonbalding scalp regions, suggesting a high androgen stimulus can trigger cell death related to androgenetic alopecia.

This article compiles stem cell and regenerative medicine developments from industry press releases in September 2016, reporting no new study results.

This study found that mouse type II spiral ganglion neurites in vitro avoided laminin and high concentrations of fibronectin, indicating both can guide neurite paths differently than type I neurites.

This study found that as Japanese women age, their hair cuticle becomes more prone to damage, shifting from type L to type E damage patterns, and hair surface properties, including fatty acid content, deteriorate.

This review summarizes therapeutic advances reported in English-language literature from December 1987 to December 1988 and states no new clinical results.

This study found that men born with very low birth weight had higher median serum estradiol levels but similar reproductive patterns compared to men born at term.

This letter argues that the lymphangitis reported from using cantharidin on warts is instead a case of aseptic necrosis common to other aggressive wart treatments.

This study found that rhodamine B penetrated human hair fibers more effectively from an aqueous solution compared to a methanol/ethanol solvent, with penetration depending on hair morphology.
