This study found that Follicular Maps, derived from trichoscopic images, remained consistent over time and unaffected by hair cycling or noncicatricial alopecia, offering a precise tool for diagnosing and monitoring hair and scalp conditions.

This study found that applying a topical inhibitor of TGF-β1 may enhance scar maturation and improve the appearance of hypertrophic scars in a nude mouse model after two weeks.

This study reports that frontal fibrosing alopecia in Brazilian patients is common in postmenopausal women and often associated with hypothyroidism and facial irritation from cosmetic products.

This study suggests that trichoscopy may assist in diagnosing pemphigus, particularly for scalp-specific lesions, by identifying certain characteristic features.

This study found that overexpressing FGF22 in dermal papilla cells enhanced hair follicle stem cell proliferation and viability, while its knockout reduced these attributes, indicating its role in hair follicle regeneration.

In this study, subthermal RF-CRET currents were found to alter key molecular mechanisms in dermal papilla cells, promoting proliferation and survival while enhancing markers associated with hair growth and maintenance, suggesting potential benefits for hair regeneration.

Certain genetic factors may contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia in Brazil.

This study found that FGF21 suppresses inflammation induced by C. acnes in both human skin cells and mouse models, suggesting potential use in acne treatment.

PCFCL may have unrecognized subtypes and needs more research.

This case report documents two postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia whose hair loss stabilized after treatment with topical corticosteroids, one also using minoxidil.

In this study, researchers reported that hair follicle stem cells maintain quiescence through a PIEZO1-dependent mechanism that senses mechanical forces and translates them into localized calcium influx, involving a transcriptional network that regulates cell adhesion and cytoskeleton-related genes.

This study found that FGF5 alternative spliceosomes inhibit dermal papilla cell proliferation and regulate hair follicle growth-related gene expression, impacting hair follicle development in rabbits.

This study found that stress hormones, particularly CRF, can inhibit hair growth and induce hair loss by affecting human dermal papilla cells and hair follicles, suggesting a functional HPA axis in these cells.

This study provides the most comprehensive review to date of published cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, emphasizing a notable association with thyroid disease.

This study found that pimecrolimus enhances melanin synthesis and promotes melanocyte migration, possibly by increasing MITF protein expression, which may explain its effectiveness in repigmenting vitiligo.

This research reexamined transcriptomic data to study stem and progenitor cell proliferation in psoriasis, finding that the number of committed progenitor cells increased eight-fold in psoriatic skin without altering stem cell numbers, potentially identifying new therapeutic targets.

This review found that antimalarial agents were more effective than steroids for Lichen planopilaris, while finasteride and dutasteride showed favorable impacts on frontal fibrosing alopecia, despite heterogeneous study quality.

This study developed an algorithm for predicting the impact of innovations on economic growth and reported its potential to enhance innovation policy decisions.

This review discusses various therapeutic options for frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights the need for more research, as existing data are largely retrospective and lack precise treatment guidelines.

In this case study, a 34-year-old woman experienced facial allergic reactions to SPF-containing products, and patch tests identified sensitization to salicylates, which when avoided, stabilized her symptoms and her existing frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting a possible link to investigate further.

This review discusses the current understanding of the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and diagnosis of female pattern hair loss and reports no new research results.

This case series examined five male burn patients who developed folliculitis barbae or pseudofolliculitis barbae, highlighting the underreported nature of these complications and the variability in treatment response. The authors call for standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols for these conditions in burn survivors.

This study found that Malassezia globosa, a scalp-associated fungus linked to dandruff, grows with saturated but not unsaturated fatty acids, potentially causing unsaturated fatty acid accumulation on the scalp and triggering dandruff-like flaking in susceptible individuals.

This case report describes a 7-year-old boy with Tinea favosa caused by Trichophyton schoenleinii, treated for 8–12 weeks with oral griseofulvin and ketoconazole cream, leading to recovery from crusts and inflammation but permanent hair loss in some areas.

This study highlights how economic systems facing global uncertainties require effective management based on sustainable development principles, emphasizing adaptive management and scientific modeling to enhance financial and economic stability within enterprises.

In this study of women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, delgocitinib cream improved the molecular signature of lesions and demonstrated potential as a treatment, showing significant transcriptomic changes and some clinical improvements over 12 weeks compared to a cream vehicle.

This study observed that proteins in the mTOR signaling pathway are expressed differently in the hair follicles of patients with lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting a role in the pathogenesis of these conditions.

This study found that fig leaf extract significantly downregulated inflammatory and androgenic gene expression in vitro, suggesting potential topical benefits for certain skin disorders.

This letter reports on a case of intractable ophiasis-type alopecia areata that was presumably improved by fexofenadine, but no new clinical results are presented.
