This review assessed experimental studies on herbs used for alopecia, identifying potential mechanisms involving hair cycle management and keratinocyte processes, but highlighted a need for improved evidence on quality control and toxicity of these herbal treatments.

This review discusses factors influencing hair pigmentation and the etiology of canities, noting the lack of clarity in underlying mechanisms and calling for further research on treatment options.

This letter to the editor on postpartum telogen effluvium does not include new research findings or data.

This review discusses current and evolving treatment strategies for congenital adrenal hyperplasia in adolescents and adults, focusing on glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid therapy and the management of insulin resistance, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, mangosteen pericarp water extract was found to significantly promote hair dermal papilla cell proliferation and enhance melanin synthesis in vitro, surpassing known melanogenic agents such as α-melanocyte stimulating hormone and forskolin in potency.

This study found that the alcohol extract of Vernonia anthelmintica may counteract stress-induced hair follicle growth inhibition in mice, potentially offering a new approach for treating stress-related hair loss.

The researchers reported that Gambogic Amide may prevent hair greying and promote hair growth by maintaining follicle pigmentation in vitro through activation and migration of melanocytes.

This review highlights concerns about the potential negative effects of chemicals in cosmetic products on the health of pregnant women, fetuses, and newborns, stressing the need for more research.

This commentary discusses a study reporting that platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment led to increased hair growth in androgenetic alopecia patients, while critiquing its conclusion on the ineffectiveness of microneedling.

This study suggests that diffuse alopecia areata initially involves an intense inflammatory attack during the anagen phase, progressing through different hair cycle stages with specific shedding patterns.

NFATc1 is crucial for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive.

This study found that among alopecia patients, 64.5% had androgenetic alopecia, with a significant prevalence in individuals under age 30 and links to family history and androgen-associated conditions.

This review discusses the various applications of platelet-rich plasma in gynecology but presents no new experimental findings; the authors highlight its potential in managing conditions like Asherman’s syndrome and urinary incontinence.

In this study, a novel DCAF17 gene mutation was identified in a Chinese family, suggesting a potential role in pancreatic β cell dysfunction and diabetes development in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome.

This case report describes the first instance of juvenile hemochromatosis type 2A associated with secondary hypothyroidism, linked to a novel mutation in the HJV gene.

A new genetic mutation in the CAST gene may link PLACK syndrome to alopecia areata.

This review highlights zinc's crucial role in both plant growth and human health, while noting the widespread problem of zinc deficiency in various soils, but reports no new findings.

This study found that hair follicle stem cells in the hairpoor mouse, a model for Marie-Unna hypotrichosis, lose their quiescent state, leading to a disordered hair cycle and contributing to alopecia.

This letter reports three cases of diffuse hair loss linked to hyperprolactinaemia but does not present new research findings.

In this study on cultured human dermal papilla cells, researchers found that niacinamide may enhance hair growth by reducing oxidative stress-induced cell senescence and delaying catagen entry, suggesting potential applications against hair loss.

This case report identifies a previously undocumented nonsense mutation in DCAF17 in a Chinese patient with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, inherited from consanguineous parents.

Women with aging signs and heart issues have higher hair loss risk, which may predict shorter lifespan and affect attractiveness.

This study suggests that human dermal Vδ1+ γδ T-cells may contribute to alopecia areata pathogenesis by targeting stressed scalp hair follicles and inducing immune privilege collapse.

This study found that fluconazole induced early hair follicle resting phase (telogen effluvium) in rats, without changing retinoic acid levels in rats or human patients, suggesting further investigation into fluconazole's hair loss mechanism is needed.

This review discusses the effectiveness of various plant extracts, including Vitis vinifera and Aesculus hippocastanum, in treating dermatological conditions like venous insufficiency and actinic keratoses but reports no new clinical results.
