This study found that in a mouse model, alopecia areata was associated with changes in heart structure, biochemistry, and gene expression linked to cardiac hypertrophy after ACTH exposure.

This review discusses the various potential causes of hair loss in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, including telogen effluvium from disease flares, but provides no prevalence data; the authors outline a practical assessment and management approach.

This study identified specific reflectance confocal microscopy features that help differentiate scarring from non-scarring alopecia, providing a non-invasive diagnostic tool.

This review highlights that laser and light treatments could serve as safe and effective alternatives to current therapies for alopecia areata, with the excimer laser showing positive results, though further randomized controlled trials are necessary to establish optimal treatment protocols.

This study found significantly higher levels of the protein ULBP3 in patients with alopecia areata incognita compared to other hair loss conditions and healthy controls, suggesting ULBP3's potential as a diagnostic marker for AAI.

This study reported that the IL1A 4-bp indel polymorphism is associated with a reduced risk of alopecia areata in Chinese populations, possibly through miR-122 mediated regulation of IL-1α expression.

This review reports on recent surfactant-based niosome formulations, including those with polysaccharides, for versatile drug delivery applications such as ocular, oral, and transdermal settings, while discussing their limitations and potential prospects.

This review highlights the need for standardized reporting on fucoidan extract properties to better understand the relationships between chemical structures and bioactivities, and to improve the quality and utility of fucoidan-related data.

This report describes a case of postoperative pressure-induced alopecia in a 5-year-old girl following liver transplantation, suggesting that scalp dermatoscopy may help differentiate this condition from alopecia areata.

This study found no significant association between vitamin D levels and alopecia areata in patients when gender was accounted for, but vitamin D levels were lower in patients with nail involvement.

This study reviewed eight studies investigating transcutaneous drug delivery via fractional laser and microneedling for alopecia treatment, with six studies showing improved hair regrowth over topical therapy alone, suggesting its potential as a promising treatment strategy, although further research is needed to refine treatment parameters.

This review highlights recent genetic research advancements in understanding hereditary hair diseases but reports no new study results, emphasizing the identification of genes related to both monogenic and polygenic hair disorders.

This study found that serum levels of zinc, copper, and selenium were significantly lower in patients with alopecia areata compared to healthy controls, regardless of the number of hair loss patches.

This review covers nonsteroid-based therapies for alopecia areata, finding potential in PRP, UVR, and laser treatments, but highlights a lack of high-quality evidence for their efficacy.

This study found that a PRP-like cosmetic product called TR-M-PRP plus significantly improved hair growth in individuals with alopecia areata over three months, as measured by the SALT score, suggesting it could be a safer alternative to traditional PRP treatments.

In this case report, the authors describe complete recovery from acute diffuse and total alopecia linked to Borrelia infection after treatment with intravenous ceftriaxone and topical clobetasol foam.

This article highlights differences in childhood alopecia areata compared to adult cases but reports no new clinical findings.

In this case report, a 9-year-old horse was diagnosed with alopecia areata contributing to Malassezia dermatitis, involving lymphocyte infiltration and symptoms consistent with yeast presence.

This review discusses the relationship between alopecia and psychological disorders and reports no new results.

This study observed that expanding regulatory T cells in the skin of mice with alopecia areata did not reverse the condition, indicating that additional immunotherapy may be necessary.

This review examines the mechanisms of Janus kinase inhibitors in treating alopecia areata and evaluates their efficacy and safety, but reports no new clinical results.

In this narrative review, researchers outlined the role of T cells in the autoimmune pathogenesis of alopecia areata and highlighted ongoing research into therapeutic pathways, beyond current JAK inhibitors, aimed at developing new treatments for the disease.

This review identifies cysteine's central role in hair growth and its potential impact on Alopecia Areata's pathogenesis, suggesting examination of cysteine metabolism might clarify the disease's underlying mechanisms and lead to new treatments.
