This study found that reduced plasma DIAPH1 levels were associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting DIAPH1 as a potential predictive factor for the condition.

This study found that individuals with alopecia areata had significantly lower serum vitamin D levels and a higher prevalence of vitamin D deficiency compared to people without the condition.

This study developed and validated a 50-item questionnaire, the PCOSQ-50, to effectively assess the quality of life in Iranian women with polycystic ovary syndrome, addressing aspects often missed by previous questionnaires.

This study observed that NSPC predominantly differentiated into neurons when exposed to serum fractions with molecules under 100 kDa, particularly with biomaterial and fibronectin, in the presence of basic fibroblast growth factor.

This report describes a case of probable telogen effluvium associated with stress and recent relocation, contributing to evidence of hair loss linked to weight reduction programs.

This case report describes a 36-year-old woman experiencing telogen effluvium, noting her recent rapid weight loss and injections of chorionic gonadotropin as potential contributing factors.

This study found that clinically non-affected perilesional scalp in Japanese alopecia patients often showed microscopic abnormalities, which may help in assessing the spread of disease activities.

This study found that probiotic-functionalized silk fibroin/alginate scaffolds, loaded with Lactobacillus casei, promoted scarless wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in infected wounds in rats.

This study successfully constructed a skin cDNA library from the Liaoning cashmere goat during follicle anagen and identified two genes with significant expression in heart, skin, and hair follicles.

This study suggests that SRD5A2 polymorphisms may increase the risk of acne in individuals with normal serum testosterone levels, particularly in the Chinese population.

In this study, researchers developed a new classification system for anterior hairline types among Asian males without androgenetic alopecia, finding MM, RM, and ML to be the most common types.

This study reports that quantitative trichoscopy, while noninvasive and convenient, provides less accurate hair density data compared to invasive histopathologic examination, which was demonstrated in a sample of adult Chinese individuals without alopecia.

This study examined 15 female patients with hypothyroidism to investigate the characterization of their alopecia and ruled out other causes, using medical histories, and clinical, trichoscopic, and histologic findings.

This study observed that improving male lower urinary tract symptoms was associated with a lower risk of death, with a 1-point improvement in symptoms leading to a 4% reduction in mortality risk.

This study found that taking Vitamin D supplements may be associated with a higher risk of hyperpigmentation after laser hair removal.

This study surveyed hairline preferences and found that the M-shaped contour was most preferred overall, with lower forehead heights favored by men and those without a history of hair transplantation.

This study found that photoepilation using intense pulsed light significantly reduced hair growth parameters, and phototrichograms may offer an objective method to evaluate its effectiveness.

Sudden weight loss can cause significant hair loss, and using colchicine on the skin for psoriasis may be unsafe.

In this study, researchers investigated the formation of spherical crystals of minoxidil in various alcoholic solvents, discovering new types like spherulite aggregates and a unique butterfly-shaped crystal, with the spherulite aggregates showing improved powder flow properties compared to other forms.

In this case study, a 12-year-old boy with Cushing's Disease experienced a complex diagnostic journey; ultimately, a left-side ACTH-secreting microadenoma was identified and treated with gamma knife therapy, normalizing hypercortisolism but resulting in growth hormone deficiency.

This study found that sensor-controlled scalp cooling prevented visible hair loss in 53% of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, with greater hair density and absence of comorbidities enhancing its efficacy, also improving patients' quality of life without increasing scalp metastasis risk.

In this study, a medicated hair growth tonic containing RJ extract increased hair counts, the proportion of anagen phase hairs, and scalp moisture in human trials, although the specific role of RJ in hair growth remains unclear due to other active ingredients.

This case study describes a 36-year-old woman with a history of recurrent limb weakness linked to hypokalemia and later diagnosed with Cushing syndrome indicated by elevated cortisol levels and a pituitary mass, which was treated with surgery and radiosurgery.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia before age 31 have a significantly increased risk of developing prostate cancer.

This study found that hair damage from sunlight and chemical processes like perms and bleaching varies in internal microstructure changes, suggesting that protective techniques should be tailored to the type of chemical treatment used.

This study developed a digital tool for quantitatively assessing hair in androgenetic alopecia, achieving an average accuracy of 79.45% for counting hairs and 68.19% for measuring hair size compared to human evaluation.

This review discusses the diagnosis and treatment of hyperandrogenism in women, emphasizing that cyproterone acetate is effective for severe hirsutism, though it reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that Koreans generally have lower hair density, larger diameter, and slower growth rate compared to Caucasians, providing useful baseline data for studying hair diseases and treatments.

This article reports a case of macular amyloidosis associated with myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia, a combination not previously documented.

This study found that the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome was 16.6% with Rotterdam criteria but decreased to 6.3% or 8.5% when using alternative criteria involving antral follicle count or anti-Müllerian hormone.
