In this study, researchers found that serum dihydrotestosterone levels were significantly lower in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes compared to healthy controls, with 90% of diabetics displaying subnormal levels.

Hair transplants can risk reactivating lichen planopilaris, a scarring hair loss condition.

This study found that ovarian suppression significantly reduced serum testosterone and androstenedione in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome and idiopathic hirsutism, with hair growth rates decreasing more in polycystic ovarian syndrome.

In this study, PDLLA treatment in middle-aged mice was observed to enhance hair growth by increasing macrophage M2 polarization and hair follicle stem cell proliferation, potentially rejuvenating the skin's microenvironment and offering a novel approach for age-related hair loss.

This review examines the trichoscopic characteristics of scalp DLE and LPP, correlating these findings with histopathological data, but provides no new clinical results.

This study found a higher prevalence of lipid abnormalities in individuals with androgenetic alopecia, especially in severe cases, highlighting the need for early screening and treatment to prevent cardiovascular complications.

This study found that the LightSheer Diode EP Laser System significantly reduced hair growth among women with hirsutism, with side effects disappearing within three days and no long-term skin pigmentation issues observed.

This study reported that in embryo transfer cycles for women with nonclassic 21-hydroxylase deficiency, dexamethasone use was associated with improved pregnancy rates, and maintaining a BMI below 23.36 kg/m² increased pregnancy probabilities.

This case report documented the management of a 46-year-old female with Marine-Lenhart syndrome, combining antithyroids with minimally invasive sclerotherapy to achieve euthyroidism and reduce thyroid nodule size by 58%.

This study describes a co-dominant E410D mutation in keratin hHb6 associated with severe hair loss and extensive papules in homozygous individuals, with variable expression in heterozygous family members.

This study suggests that the presence and arrangement of plasmacytoid dendritic cells can help distinguish chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus from other types of scarring alopecia.

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.

KLHL24-mutant stem cells help understand skin and heart disease.

This study suggests elevated homocysteine levels may serve as a biomarker for disease severity and vascular risk in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, indicating potential therapeutic benefits from B-vitamin supplementation and lifestyle changes.

Hairless protein helps control hair growth by regulating vitamin D receptor activity.

A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl with childhood discoid lupus erythematosus, where treatment led to reversal of scarring alopecia and hair regrowth.

In this study of women with hirsutism or androgenic alopecia, diverse underlying endocrine disorders including polycystic ovaries and various enzyme deficiencies were detected, often associated with elevated testosterone levels.

In this study, researchers found no significant differences in the serum levels of DHEAs, DHT, and testosterone between female patients with oral lichen planus and healthy controls, suggesting no neuroendocrine etiology is associated with this condition.

This study found that a hypomorphic mutation in the Hr gene contributes to the development of diet-induced pruritic atopic skin in mice, particularly when combined with dietary deficiencies of polyunsaturated fatty acids and starch.

This case report documents the rare occurrence of lipedematous scalp in two black Caribbean female siblings, suggesting a potential genetic factor and noting psychiatric co-morbidities as novel associations.

This study reported that Chinese women with PCOS exhibited diverse lipid profiles based on different characteristics, which may help understand their increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

This case report presents a 28-year-old woman with alopecia universalis and macular dystrophy, highlighting a potential new linkage between these conditions without previously identified associated genes.

This study found that hCG decreased 5α-reductase and androgen receptor levels in skin samples from women in vitro, suggesting that human skin responds to LH/hCG treatment.

In this cross-sectional study, researchers observed that patients with hidradenitis suppurativa, particularly women, had lower 2D:4D finger length ratios compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential link to prenatal androgen exposure and disease severity, though further prospective research is needed to confirm this hormonal impact.

This article reviews the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment options for discoid lupus erythematosus and reports no new clinical results.

This review explores the potential of selective 11β-HSD1 inhibitors to improve insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes, emphasizing the need for more clinical research and reports no new clinical results.

This study found a positive association between bilateral diagonal earlobe crease and bilateral preauricular crease with coronary artery disease, with both creases together predicting the disease with 90% accuracy.
