This narrative case study examined a 28-year-old medical resident and found that occupational stress and emotional suppression might contribute to the physical manifestation of alopecia areata. Addressing psychological aspects alongside medical treatment could help manage the condition more effectively, especially in high-pressure professions.

This study reviewed a corticosteroid treatment regimen for a 52-year-old woman with extensive alopecia areata, showing significant hair regrowth and sustained remission over 12 months, suggesting oral mini-pulse therapy as a viable alternative for those ineligible for JAK inhibitors.

This study found that the AOPT-MTL mode is an effective and safe treatment option for nasal blackheads in Asians, indicating potential for widespread clinical use.

This case report details a probable severe adverse event associated with ritlecitinib for alopecia areata, highlighting risks of pulmonary emboli, infection, atrial fibrillation, and acute kidney injury despite an absence of known risk factors.

This study found that 808 nm laser photobiomodulation altered mitochondrial respiration and enhanced osteogenic protein expression in human dental pulp stem cells, with the effects being dose-specific and more pronounced at 15 J/cm².

This study found that microneedles containing magnetic intracellular vesicles and tremella polysaccharide improved the hair microenvironment and accelerated hair regeneration in mice with androgenic alopecia.

In this study, intravenous corticosteroid pulse therapy for rapidly progressive alopecia areata showed that 74.5% of patients achieved a good response in the long-term, and a revised scoring system predicted relapse risk effectively in cases with preceding infectious symptoms.

This study provides a comprehensive review of trichotillomania, focusing on its clinical symptoms, etiology, diagnostics, and treatment methods, while also addressing serious complications like trichobezoars and Rapunzel Syndrome.

This study found that conditioned medium from human dental pulp stem cells (particularly under hypoxic conditions) improved keratinocyte survival and hair regrowth in a chemotherapy-induced alopecia mouse model and did not promote tumor growth, suggesting potential for safe therapeutic use.

This report describes three cases of erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli showing significant improvement in facial telangiectasia following treatment with a 595-nm pulsed dye laser, with minimal recurrence observed during follow-up.

This letter discusses findings from an article by Sun et al. showing that neodymium doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser effectively treats prominent facial vasculature in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, but highlights concerns about the risk of iatrogenic scarring and suggests caution with treatment frequency.

This study found that while 51.3% of severe alopecia areata patients achieved significant hair regrowth with intravenous methylprednisolone, oral Janus kinase inhibitors may benefit those who do not respond to this treatment.

This study explored how chronic hair pulling behavior serves as a coping mechanism among African American women, particularly through the lens of eroticism, but reports on narratives rather than clinical results.

This article outlines a 15-step process for safe and efficient follicular extraction using the follicular unit excision technique, but it reports no new clinical results.

High-dose corticosteroids can significantly regrow hair in severe alopecia areata.

This study found that hydroxychloroquine was less effective than betamethasone oral mini pulse therapy in managing alopecia areata, with patients on hydroxychloroquine experiencing score increases and more relapses at 24 weeks, though adverse event rates were similar between the groups.

This study found that low-level pulsed wave red light stimulated collagen and ATP production in human fibroblasts with significantly shorter treatment time than continuous wave light, suggesting enhanced consumer compliance for skin treatments.

595 nm pulsed dye laser is a cost-effective treatment for nonmelanoma skin cancer with a low recurrence rate.

This study observed that Betamethasone oral mini-pulse therapy showed a good response in 60% of lichen planus patients, though further research is needed to confirm its efficacy.

This study found that Compound Diandao Pulvis Drug Facial Mask improved some signs of acne in a rabbit ear model, but its effects were not significantly different from tretinoin cream.

This study found that applying a low intensive pulse magnetic field significantly accelerated wound healing in rats by promoting the proliferation and differentiation of skin epidermal stem cells.

In this observational study, the effectiveness of a diode laser was evaluated for treating pseudofolliculitis barbae at the Laser and Skin Surgery Center of New York, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses recent advances in the pharmacological treatment of trichotillomania, highlighting potential benefits of glutamate-modulating agents, and reports no new clinical results.

Minoxidil lowers blood pressure and increases heart efficiency, but may raise lung artery pressure in some people.

This study observed that while dexamethasone-cyclophosphamide pulse therapy is relatively free from hypertension and diabetes compared to conventional steroids in pemphigus patients, it frequently causes generalized weakness and flushing.

This study found that a combination of low-dose isotretinoin and oral azithromycin pulse effectively treats severe acne with an acceptable side effect profile and relatively low relapse rates.

This study suggests that finasteride treatment may improve pulmonary immune response in mice following trauma and sepsis, indicating potential as a therapeutic option after major trauma.

In this study, echocardiographic measures of cardiac function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome were found to be similar to those of healthy women.

A man with both skin lesions and lung cancer improved quickly with chemotherapy, suggesting the skin condition might be a reaction to immune system injury.

This study suggests that analyzing microscopic hair morphology, particularly loss of typical clubbing and proximal tapering, may help predict the clinical course of alopecia areata.
