This review critically assesses current topical therapies for scalp psoriasis and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for controlled trials to evaluate treatment efficacy.

This study found that clobetasol propionate 0.05% was more effective than topical metformin 30% in treating localized alopecia areata, even though both treatments were generally well-tolerated and showed similar effects overall.

This study explored a new treatment approach using 20% TCA application with topical bimatoprost solution for managing alopecia areata of the eyebrows in cases where traditional treatments failed, offering a potential additional option for difficult cases.

This study found that retinoic acid and a retinol complex formulation showed different permeation and compound localization in a skin equivalent model, with unique lipid changes observed with only the retinol formulation.

Different treatments for skin conditions were found to be effective and generally safe, with biologics recommended as the first choice for generalized pustular psoriasis.

In this study, tazarotene 0.1% gel showed greater efficacy than tretinoin 0.025% gel in reducing acne lesions and demonstrated similar efficacy to adapalene 0.1% gel when used less frequently.

In this nonrandomized controlled study, topical betamethasone dipropionate lotion was found to be significantly more effective for hair regrowth in patients with alopecia areata compared to topical minoxidil solution, with 74% showing efficacy versus 42%, respectively.

This study found that topical 0.05% betamethasone dipropionate was the most effective treatment for patients with patchy alopecia areata, with less than 25% hair loss, over a 12-week period, compared to other topical treatments.

Among pediatric alopecia areata patients treated with DPCP, this study reported complete hair regrowth in 8.8% and any regrowth in 61.8% after one year, with better outcomes for those with milder initial symptoms and longer treatment durations.

This study found that prototype right heart circulatory assist devices significantly improved hemodynamics and reduced pulmonary vascular resistances in piglet models of acute hemodynamic shock.

This study observed that proretinal nanoparticles delivered significantly higher concentrations of retinal to the stratum corneum and hair follicles compared to non-particulate forms, potentially improving topical retinoid therapy.

This case report suggests that topical bimatoprost may promote eyebrow hair growth, as observed in a patient with eyebrow hypotrichosis, but lacks broader published scientific evidence.

This study found that 10% carbamide peroxide significantly reduced acne lesions compared to a vehicle solution, suggesting it as an effective and safe alternative to benzoyl peroxide for treating mild to moderate acne.

No treatment showed clear superiority for lichen planopilaris.

In this placebo-controlled clinical study, a cream containing 4% capryloyl glycine and 1% glycine soy‐fermented extract effectively inhibited ODC1 activity and improved hypertrichosis in 91.7% of Caucasian female patients on the forearms, whereas no improvement was observed with the placebo.

In this study, 13-cis-5S*,8S*-epidioxy-5,8-dihydroretinoic acid was found to be significantly more cytotoxic to cancer cell lines than other retinoic acid analogs evaluated.

This source discusses that while oral JAK inhibitors are used for treating lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, they carry significant risk of adverse events; two cases showed promising results using tofacitinib cream as a safer topical alternative.

This review highlights the clinical usefulness of bimatoprost in lowering intraocular pressure for glaucoma patients and its promising results in promoting hair growth for conditions like alopecia, with research also exploring potential new applications and delivery systems.

This study found that phototoxic psoralen and ultraviolet A therapy with topical 8-MOP was effective in treating alopecia areata resistant to other treatments, improving hair regrowth with minimal side effects.

Two cosmetic lotions used day and night may be a good alternative to minoxidil for hair loss treatment with better cosmetic effects and tolerance.

This case report suggests that topical diphenylcyclopropenone (DPCP) may be beneficial for treating both alopecia areata and verruca vulgaris, although it is not typically a first-line therapy.

In this study, latanoprost significantly increased hair density in young men with mild androgenetic alopecia after 24 weeks, suggesting it may stimulate hair follicle activity and treat hair loss.

In this randomized study, 72% of patients treated with 0.05% betamethasone dipropionate showed significant improvement in limited patchy alopecia areata compared to 36% of those using 0.05% tretinoin, suggesting BMD is more effective but further research on tretinoin is needed.

This clinical trial found that combining fractional CO2 laser with bimatoprost solution significantly improved alopecia areata treatment outcomes compared to bimatoprost alone, as measured by a more substantial reduction in SALT scores and higher patient satisfaction over 12 weeks.
