This case study highlights the importance of considering systemic lupus erythematosus in young patients presenting with atypical symptoms like periorbital erythema and pancytopenia, as early diagnosis and treatment can lead to remission.

This study found that human follicular papilla cells in the scalp produce leptin and express functional leptin receptors, suggesting leptin's significant role in hair biology.

This study found that freeze-dried homologous platelet-rich plasma (FD HPRP) increased osteocalcin levels in cultured osteoblasts, suggesting its potential to support bone regeneration in periodontal treatment.

This study observed that while alopecia treatment in patients showed some improvements in quality of life and anxiety scores at six months, these changes were not statistically significant.

This review discusses the potential carcinogenic effects of anabolic androgenic steroids, particularly regarding Leydig cell tumors, and highlights the need for preventive information campaigns due to associated health risks.

This study is collecting real-world data to evaluate abrocitinib and conventional systemic treatments in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis across five European registers over a three-year period.

This study found that patients with vitiligo in the United States had higher rates of autoimmune conditions, infections, and skin cancer compared to matched controls, with higher vitiligo prevalence in Asian and Hispanic populations.

In this study, Urtica dioica L. infusions were used to replace water in k-carrageenan hydrogels, resulting in stronger networks with reduced syneresis and altered textural properties, and the highest antioxidant potential was achieved with specific infusion conditions.

In this study, Myrtus communis leaf extract significantly reduced IL-1α expression and increased VEGF expression in human keratinocytes, which the researchers suggest may be linked to its traditional use in treating hair loss and wound healing. Further investigation is needed to clarify its mechanisms.

Contact dermatitis may speed up hair loss in some cases.

This study found that finasteride may effectively reduce hirsutism in women with idiopathic hirsutism, as evidenced by lower Ferriman-Gallwey scores and hormone levels, without significant adverse effects.

This study found that micropigmentation effectively improved the cosmetic appearance of scalp and eyebrow scars in 94% of patients, with the pigments remaining safely in the superficial dermis after one year.

This study found that minoxidil prevents long-term serotonergic toxicity induced by MDMA in rats, primarily by opening mitochondrial KATP channels and involving Akt and MAP kinases in its neuroprotective mechanism.

This review presents an objective analysis of female androgenetic alopecia, discussing clinical and dermoscopic examination approaches but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that a 15% topical minoxidil solution improved hair regrowth in 60% of women with female pattern hair loss who did not respond to the standard 5% solution, without adverse effects.

In this study, Korean women with female pattern hair loss who used a combination of topical 0.025% 17α-estradiol and 3% minoxidil saw significant increases in total hair count and hair caliber over six months.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma significantly increased hair diameter in both men and women with androgenetic alopecia but improved hair density only in men.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia exhibit specific miRNA expression profiles, suggesting that abnormal miR-133b expression may inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and affect hair growth.

This review discusses the use of platelet-rich plasma for treating female androgenetic alopecia, reporting that it shows high patient satisfaction and improved quality of life in affected women.

This study reported that while topical minoxidil exhibits hair regrowth in androgenetic alopecia, oral minoxidil 5 mg/day was more effective than topical forms after six months, with low doses also potentially effective for women and other hair loss types.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia patients had significantly lower serum levels of paraoxonase 1, which correlated with disease severity and suggests a role of oxidative stress in its pathogenesis.

In this viewpoint, researchers discussed the possible role of the developmental origin of scalp dermis in influencing the specific pattern of hair follicle miniaturization seen in male pattern hair loss, noting that frontal follicles are more susceptible while occipital follicles remain largely terminal.

Minoxidil sulfate gel can be used to treat hair loss.

This industry update reports on various advancements in therapeutic delivery during July 2018, highlighting active mergers, collaborations, and potential developments across fields like gene therapy, immuno-oncology, and rare diseases treatment; however, no new clinical results are presented.

This study found that in women with PCOS in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, glucose homeostatic disorders were common, particularly among those with higher testosterone levels, suggesting the need for glucose disorder screening in this population.

Azathioprine may help with severe hair loss, a new topical treatment could counteract hair thinning, and trichoscopy can diagnose hair-pulling disorder effectively.

PRP treatment showed no hair regrowth improvement after the first application in patients with alopecia.
