research Aromatase inhibitors induce ‘male pattern hair loss’ in women?
This study observed that aromatase inhibitors caused hair loss in menopausal women with breast cancer, mimicking male pattern baldness rather than female androgenetic alopecia.
research The stumptailed macaque as a model for baldness: effects of minoxidil
In this study with stumptailed macaques, topical minoxidil successfully induced hair regrowth on bald scalps and prevented baldness on non-bald scalps, with no observed side effects over nearly three years.
research Production rates of testosterone and of dihydrotestosterone in female pattern hair loss
This study found that young women with female-pattern hair loss exhibit increased testosterone production rates while dihydrotestosterone production rates remain within or below the normal range.
research Perception of Baldness and Hair Density
This study found that the parietal/occipital hair density ratio decreases significantly only when baldness is visibly present, making it no better than the Hamilton/Norwood scale for assessing baldness severity.
research Topical 2% Minoxidil Solution in Male Pattern Alopecia. The Initial European Experience
This study found that 2% minoxidil solution significantly increased nonvellus hair count in men with male pattern baldness compared to placebo during a 48-week trial.
research Female pattern hair loss: A retrospective study in a tertiary referral center
This study observed that many female pattern hair loss patients had concurrent conditions such as telogen effluvium, hypothyroidism, and hypertension, with a significant percentage having low Vitamin D levels.
research Urinary steroids in men with male-pattern alopecia
This study found that men with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher levels of certain urinary steroid metabolites, suggesting increased 5 alpha-reductase activity and possible mild hyperadrenal activity.
research Female pattern hair loss may be triggered by low oestrogen to androgen ratio.
This study observed that women with female pattern hair loss had a significantly lower ratio of estradiol to free testosterone compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential hormonal trigger for hair loss.
research Incidence of Female Androgenetic Alopecia (Female Pattern Alopecia)
This study concluded that female androgenetic alopecia is common among Caucasian women, starting in their late 20s and peaking after age 50.
research Translation into Portuguese language (Brazil), transcultural adaptation and validation of the quality of life questionnaire in female pattern hair loss (WAA-QoL-BP)
Researchers translated and validated the WAA-QoL questionnaire into Brazilian Portuguese, finding it to be a reliable tool for assessing quality of life in women with female pattern hair loss.
research Baldness may be caused by the weight of the scalp: Gravity as a proposed mechanism for hair loss
This article introduces a new theory on male pattern baldness, attributing it to scalp pressure affecting hair follicles, and suggests it could revolutionize understanding and treatment; no clinical results are presented.
research Combing the genome for the root cause of baldness
Two key genetic areas linked to male-pattern baldness were identified.
research Topical Minoxidil in the Treatment of Male Pattern Alopecia
This article reviews the potential of topical minoxidil to cosmetically thicken hair in some individuals with male pattern hair loss, but it reports no new clinical results.
research Finasteride in the treatment of female pattern (androgenic) alopecia: a case report and review of the literature.
In this report, a 44-year-old woman with female pattern alopecia experienced significant hair regrowth after 3.5 months of oral finasteride, with no side effects, after not responding to topical minoxidil.
research Animal models for male pattern (androgenetic) alopecia.
This review discusses the suitability of stump-tailed macaques and rodent models for studying hair growth and developing treatments for androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new experimental results.
research The Adapted Classification of Male Pattern Hair Loss Improves Reliability
This study found that an adapted version of the Hamilton-Norwood classification improves reliability in assessing pattern hair loss and could aid population studies examining its association with cardiovascular disease.
research Hair-Bearing Flaps for Baldness
Flap surgery is effective for treating male baldness, offering immediate results with dense hair growth.
research Early-onset baldness and the risk of aggressive prostate cancer: findings from a case–control study
This study found that men with androgenetic alopecia at age 20 years may have a higher risk of developing aggressive prostate cancer, particularly advanced stage disease.
research New pattern hair loss in young Turkish women; What's wrong in their daily life?
This study found that thermal hair straightening in Asian women was associated with various signs of scalp and hair damage, including CCCA-like hair loss.
research Improvement of Hair Graying during a Treatment of Male Pattern Hair Loss Using 1,927-nm Fractionated Thulium Laser Energy and Polydeoxyribonucleotide Injections
In this case report, hair graying improved in a patient with male pattern hair loss after combined treatment with thulium laser energy and polydeoxyribonucleotide injections, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits.
research Biotechs target stagnant baldness market
New drug shows promise for better hair growth in baldness treatment.
research Androgenic pattern presentation of scarring and inflammatory alopecia
This article provides no abstract or new research findings on the androgenic pattern presentation of scarring and inflammatory alopecia.
research Cue masking and cultural signals: Testing context-specific preferences for bald(ing) leaders
This study found that men with male pattern baldness are perceived as older, and shaving heads increased perceived dominance, but neither influenced leader preference in different contexts.
research Delaying treatment in male-pattern hair loss affects the therapeutic response
Delaying hair loss treatment reduces its effectiveness.
research MALE-PATTERN HAIR LOSS — A SUPRAORBITAL NERVE ENTRAPMENT SYNDROME?
The authors suggest that male-pattern hair loss may be linked to neuropathy caused by tension on scalp nerves, potentially worsened by testosterone, and propose electrical stimulation as a temporary treatment.
research Evaluation of Susceptibility Genes/Loci Associated with Male Androgenetic Alopecia (MAGA) for Female-Pattern Hair Loss in a Chinese Han Population and a Brief Literature Review
This study found no significant association between genetic loci linked to male androgenetic alopecia and female-pattern hair loss in a Chinese Han population, suggesting they are etiologically separate disorders.
research Serum Vitamin D And Serum Ferritin Levels In Male Pattern Hair Loss :Is There A role?
This study found that vitamin D levels were significantly lower in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to healthy controls, while ferritin levels showed no significant difference.
