In this study, researchers suggest that digital microscopy using visible light could offer a more objective approach to diagnosing hirsutism by quantifying terminal hair, with future research needed to assess its usefulness in women with the condition.

This article outlines the clinical features, evaluation, and treatment strategies for androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting important diagnostic and management approaches but reporting no new research results.

This review discusses the dermatologic features of PCOS as potential early indicators of the syndrome and notes that treatment of these conditions may enhance quality of life and psychological well-being, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses current knowledge on the biological mechanisms of different types of alopecia but reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight future research directions, especially regarding epidermal stem cells and immune pathways.

This review discusses the development of IPL devices, highlights their established cosmetic uses, such as treating vascular and pigmented lesions, and suggests potential expansion into more effective combination therapies.

This study found that light and sucrose have opposing effects on root length but collectively enhance root hair emergence and elongation in plant roots.

In this study, researchers observed that knocking out KCNQ3 in mice increased firing frequencies in response to stimuli, particularly at slow mechanical indentation velocities, indicating a role in mechanosensory neuron sensitivity.

This study suggests that combination therapies including minoxidil with either finasteride, low-level laser light therapy, or microneedling are more effective than minoxidil alone for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study highlights the importance of clinicians understanding the effects of gender-affirming hormones like testosterone, estrogen, and antiandrogens on hair growth, to effectively diagnose and treat androgenetic alopecia in gender minority patients.

This review discusses skin appendages like hair and nails as indicators of local and systemic pathologies, emphasizing conditions such as inflammatory diseases and infections, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, maternal exposure to constant light significantly altered the neonatal skin structure in rabbits, associated with reduced maternal melatonin levels.

This review discusses various treatments for noncicatricial alopecias, such as androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, including mesotherapy, microneedling, and platelet-rich plasma therapy, noting that outcomes vary across these procedures.

Birth control pills and anti-androgen medications help manage hair growth, acne, and hair loss in women with PCOS.

This review discusses current and emerging treatments for androgenetic alopecia, covering mechanisms, efficacy, and safety of both androgen-targeted and non-androgen-targeted approaches, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews various treatments for alopecia, highlighting that minoxidil, finasteride, PRP therapy, and hair transplants are the most commonly used options, but it reports no new clinical results.

This chapter reviews differences in dermatological treatments and conditions between male and female patients, particularly noting the impacts of sex steroids on various skin processes, but presents no new clinical findings.

This abstract explains that androgenetic alopecia, a common hair loss disorder influenced by genetics and hormones like dihydrotestosterone, has FDA-approved treatments including minoxidil, finasteride, and photolaser therapy, but its genetic basis and susceptibility to environmental factors remain complex.

This study found that the genes MYLK and CALD1 were expressed at lower levels in bladder cancer and osteosarcoma tissues compared to normal tissues, and their expression levels appeared to correlate with poorer survival outcomes, suggesting they may be important in disease progression and prognosis.

This study found that methylene blue staining may reveal anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat mystacial pad with greater clarity than the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide technique.

This study found that decreased pressure sensitivity and 2-point discrimination at the scalp's vertex were significantly associated with androgenetic alopecia in men.

This study reviews the interplay between endocrine factors and genetic predisposition in androgenetic alopecia, highlighting various treatment options, including new medical, surgical, and light-based therapies, though some remain relatively unexplored.

This study observed that methylene blue staining and zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide techniques effectively revealed anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat's mystacial pad, suggesting their potential role in mechanoreception.

This study found that mimicking the XPD point mutation in mice resulted in trichothiodystrophy-like symptoms, supporting the role of basal transcription and DNA repair defects in the disease.

This study found that adults with trichotillomania did not show differences in pain tolerance or exhibit analgesia to cold pressor pain compared to healthy controls.

This study found that concentrated clusters of noradrenergic nerve fibers form a longitudinal linear system in rat skin, particularly innervating arrector pili muscles.

This review examines how GLP-1 receptor agonists might impact metabolic and reproductive outcomes in polycystic ovary syndrome, but it reports no new clinical findings and highlights the need for further research.

Hair cortisol concentration partly reflects HPA axis regulation but doesn't capture all its complexities.

This review indicates that various laser therapies, alone or combined with other treatments, show potential in improving hair density and treating androgenetic alopecia, but outcomes can vary, underscoring the importance of personalized treatment.

This case report describes an 18-month-old boy who developed a rare phototoxic skin reaction to terbinafine, likely triggered by sunlight exposure, which resolved after treatment with corticosteroid cream and sun avoidance.

This article discusses photobiomodulation as a potential adjunct to hair follicle organoid culture for androgenic alopecia, reporting no new results and suggesting further study is needed.
