This study found that temporary hair loss is common after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, and biotin supplementation showed low effectiveness in preventing this hair loss.

This article discusses the basic care and issues primary care providers should consider when treating transgender patients, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 44-year-old patient with late-onset partial lipodystrophy, mental retardation, epilepsy, ichthyosis, and glomerulonephritis, linked to a 10 Mb duplication of chromosome region 5q31.3-5q32.1.

This study observed an alopecia syphilitica-like pattern of hair loss in a woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it may be another atypical presentation of the condition.

This case report describes a 16-month-old girl with atypical acrodermatitis enteropathica who showed marked improvement after zinc supplementation despite normal serum zinc levels.

This study presents a method using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry to quantify biotin in plasma and serum, and explores how high biotin intake can interfere with diagnostic immunoassays that utilize biotin-streptavidin technology, potentially leading to misdiagnosis of endocrine disorders.

PGD2 stops hair growth and is higher in bald men with AGA.

This study found that applying dexamethasone to mice induced catagen-like follicle changes significantly earlier and more consistently than a vehicle, such changes being useful for studying hair follicle regression.

This study found that children are susceptible to SARS-CoV, with good short- to medium-term outcomes, and that sore throat and neutrophilia can predict severe illness.

This study found that PDGFA is critical for the proliferation and maintenance of adipocyte stem cells in skin but not other white adipose tissues, highlighting unique regulatory mechanisms in different tissue depots.

Toxic Shock Syndrome progresses quickly, often involves multiple organs, and is linked to Staphylococcus aureus toxins, with treatment options available but diagnostic challenges remaining.

This review summarizes the cutaneous manifestations of lupus erythematosus, noting both non-specific and disease-specific lesions, and highlights the role of skin biopsies and treatments available for cutaneous LE.

This study demonstrates that inhibiting SFRP1 with the antagonist WAY-316606 enhances hair growth in human scalp hair follicles ex vivo by facilitating Wnt signalling.

This study found that quiescence in hair follicle stem cells acts as a tumor suppression mechanism for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, with Pten activity necessary to maintain this state.

This study developed thermo-reversible glycol chitosan hydrogels that effectively form and maintain 3D cell spheroids within one day, offering a simplified method for creating biologically realistic cultures for tissue regeneration and drug screening applications.

Research on epidermal stem cells has advanced significantly, showing promise for improved clinical therapies.

This case report found that two women developed toxic selenium levels after consuming paradise nuts, resulting in symptoms like massive hair loss and nail discoloration.

This study found that Puerariae Flos extract inhibited testosterone 5α-reductase and promoted hair growth in mouse models, suggesting its potential use for treating androgenic alopecia.

This article reviews the complexity and diverse manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting potential genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors in its pathogenesis without presenting new clinical findings.

In this study, tofacitinib treatment in a male patient with alopecia areata led to significant hair regrowth and improvement in nail dystrophy symptoms, restoring finger function within 10 months.

This study observed that dapsone may be effective for treating pustular psoriasis, as four out of five patients showed improvement after previously failing other treatments.

In this study, fraction No. 3 of Oryza sativa bran extract demonstrated high unsaturated fatty acid content and significant 5α-reductase inhibition, suggesting potential for developing anti-androgenic alopecia products.

This review discusses various approaches to treating alopecia, including drug therapy and hair transplantation, but reports no new research findings; the authors highlight the need for novel techniques like cell culturing.

This study reports that transgene insertion in homozygous transgenic mice causes irreversible hair loss and impaired immune function, linked to interruption of the hairless locus on Chromosome 14.

This source explores long COVID syndrome and identifies risk factors like older age, female gender, and comorbidities such as diabetes. It mentions potential diagnostic biomarkers, highlights ongoing clinical trials, and emphasizes the importance of vaccines and rehabilitation in managing long COVID.

This study found that male 5α-reductase 2 knockout mice showed deficits in social dominance behaviors and reduced dopamine receptor binding in a brain region related to social ranking.

This clinical trial found that the extract complex of Cistanche tubulosa and Laminaria japonica (MK-R7) significantly improved hair density and diameter in patients with patterned hair loss over 16 weeks.

This case report highlights the importance of suspecting underlying malignancy, such as Hodgkin's lymphoma, in patients with diffuse hair loss and other cutaneous symptoms.
