Biotin may help women with hair loss who have low biotin levels, but more research is needed.

This systematic review found very weak evidence supporting the use of minoxidil as an adjunctive treatment for traction alopecia, with improvements noted from 3 months onwards, primarily based on limited case reports and retrospective case series.

This study found that minimally invasive combined fascia sheath suspension improved eyelid symmetry in patients with unilateral ptosis, particularly in measures of marginal reflex distance and eyelid contour.

In this study, tinea capitis was identified as the most common cause of noncicatricial alopecia in children, followed by alopecia areata and marginal traction alopecia. Diagnosis using trichoscopy enhanced understanding by revealing specific hair and scalp disorder characteristics.

In this study, hair shafts from trichothiodystrophy patients with ERCC2 mutations revealed abnormal cuticle structures and protein imbalances compared to normal hair shafts.

Finasteride may cause gum problems, but stopping the drug can improve these issues.

Finasteride may cause gum side effects in some patients.

This thesis presents a review and cross-sectional studies on the prevalence of specific scalp disorders among Africans, examining potential links with hairstyles and proposing a new severity scoring system for traction alopecia.

This article presents a case study of a 50-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia and discusses the role of dermoscopy in differentiating it from other types of alopecia, reporting no new clinical results.

This article discusses dermatological issues associated with black skin, such as postinflammatory pigmentation and keloids, and highlights the need for practitioners to understand these racial characteristics; it reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes an atypical presentation of alopecia areata in a 53-year-old postmenopausal woman, which may resemble frontal fibrosing alopecia and complicate diagnosis.

This study found that spironolactone reduced androgenic hormones in hirsute women but had only marginal effects on hair growth, making it no more advisable than other therapies.

In this study, researchers tested lotions containing DGLA, S-equol, and propionyl-l-carnitine on individuals with androgenic alopecia, noting a significant increase in hair count for women and a marginal increase for men after 6 months, along with improved hair cycle dynamics.

The document explains how to determine your tax bracket and the effects of income changes on taxes.

In this study, oral etretinate resulted in increased hair length and loss of beading in a childhood monilethrix case, while the scalp's keratosis pilaris persisted.

In this study, researchers devised a stochastic hair growth model influenced by regular haircuts, using a process that undergoes linear growth subject to random resets, and used it to theoretically determine an ideal haircut routine.

This article discusses two cases of the rare combination of frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichenoid pigmentation in women, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses genetic factors that may influence the effectiveness of metformin in treating polycystic ovary syndrome and emphasizes the need for further research to establish clear benefits.

In this study, zinc chloride was found to be severely irritant to the skin in rabbit, guinea-pig, and mouse models, while zinc oxide, zinc sulphate, zinc pyrithione, and zinc undecylenate showed minimal to no irritancy.

This review discusses the lack of specific micronutrient supplementation recommendations for hair loss in patients on long-term parenteral nutrition and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that both ciclosporin A and topical therapy were effective in reducing alopecia and scaling in dogs with idiopathic sebaceous adenitis, with evidence suggesting improved outcomes when both treatments are combined.

This case report suggests that frontal fibrosing alopecia with nail involvement may be associated with lichen planus and improved with oral dutasteride due to an inflammatory reaction related to androgenetic alopecia.

This review presents the practice of using hair bioelement analysis to assess nutritional status or environmental exposure, proposing complex interactions and hypotheses regarding depression and autism but reports no new clinical results.

This review covers complications of neck lift surgery, their causes, ways to reduce them, and management strategies, without offering new clinical findings.

This review notes that while ATX-101 showed a favorable safety profile for reducing submental fat in clinical trials, serious adverse events related to procedures have been reported in real-world use, prompting recommendations for improved management and prevention strategies.

This article discusses zinc deficiency in animal nutrition and highlights the need for zinc supplementation in livestock diets; it reports no new study results.

In this study, researchers documented the immunohistochemical distribution of CD34 in basal cell carcinoma and found distinct patterns of CD34 expression, with variations in CD34 positivity between different areas of BCC tumor stroma and adjacent skin regions.

This study found that individuals with a recent history of suicide attempts exhibited altered DHEA hair levels, suggesting possible dysregulation of the HPA axis as a biopsychosocial feature, and recommends further investigation into hair hormones as potential markers of suicidal crisis and vulnerability.

This study found that both microneedle delivery and intradermal injection of platelet-rich plasma were similarly effective for treating androgenetic alopecia, but microneedle delivery caused significantly less pain.

This study concluded that moderate to severe alopecia in Belgian Blue crossbred calves was due to malabsorption of dietary fat caused by a mixing error of milk replacer.
