This study of FAERS data suggests that finasteride, particularly at the 1 mg dosage, is associated with a wide range of adverse effects not previously established in long-term studies, especially among younger men.

This meta-analysis found a significant positive association between frontal fibrosing alopecia and both sunscreen and moisturizer use, with the moisturizer association significant only in males.

This article presents a case of 5-alpha-reductase deficiency in a Saudi individual, reporting no new research findings.

This clinical letter identifies Rothmund-Thomson syndrome type 2 as a rare cause of chronic wounds, but provides no new experimental findings.

In this study, both radiofrequency microneedling and ultrasound treatments with a plant-based secretory factor hair serum enhanced hair and scalp health in subjects with androgenetic alopecia, with ultrasound showing more pronounced improvements in hair appearance, density, and color.

This article introduces a new grading system called the FPHL Severity Index to better identify and monitor early stages of female pattern hair loss using clinical criteria.

Reducing SFRP1 can promote hair growth and may help treat hair loss.

In this study, the use of rb‐bFGF in hair transplantation significantly increased follicle survival, reduced hair loss, improved patient satisfaction, and decreased complications compared to controls, in patients with androgenetic alopecia over a 12-month period.

The researchers reported that human foreskin fibroblasts isolated by enzyme digestion method proliferated faster and were purified more quickly than those isolated by the inverted tissue culture method; additionally, post-psoralen photoactivation therapy moderately repaired UVB-induced damage in these fibroblasts, suggesting potential clinical applications.

This study found that fractional radiofrequency microneedling may be as effective and safe as intralesional corticosteroid injections for treating patchy alopecia areata, with potentially fewer side effects.

This study observed that the compound EM-402 reduced 5α-reductase activity and sebaceous gland size in the flank organs and ears of hamsters, indicating potent localized anti-androgenic effects without systemic action.

This study reports that flaky skin mice exhibit skin and nail features that closely resemble human psoriasis vulgaris, suggesting they may serve as a natural model for this condition.

This study found that high frequency use of sunscreen is associated with frontal fibrosing alopecia among women attending a specialist hair clinic in Australia.

In this study, Dodatek A operationalizes the Functional Androgen Axis framework by defining three system-level indices and an efficiency metric to describe androgen function, incorporating key methodological improvements and acknowledging significant limitations for future empirical validation.

This study found that the genes FCER1A and RGS1 are promising biomarkers for diagnosing systemic lupus erythematosus, with FCER1A downregulated and RGS1 upregulated in patients.

This report describes a case where a woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia initially presented with symptoms resembling rosacea, but further investigation led to a diagnosis of FFA, resulting in a treatment change to oral finasteride and hydroxychloroquine.

In this study, HPH-15, a newly synthesized compound, demonstrated potential in reducing skin fibrosis in a mouse model by targeting underlying pathogenic mechanisms and exhibited a good safety profile, warranting further clinical trials for fibrotic skin disorders like systemic sclerosis.

This review discusses the increasing reports of frontal fibrosing alopecia, a form of scarring alopecia, and its potential link to autoimmune disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that infrared thermography might be a useful non-invasive tool to help diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying active phases of the disease.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study found variation in erythema induction across skin types, suggesting different SSR dose responses and highlighting a potential model for tailoring anti-inflammatory treatments.

This submission discusses the updated CPSO policy on human rights in healthcare, suggesting it imposes excessive requirements on physicians objecting to certain services for ethical reasons, and recommends a unified protection of conscience policy.

This report highlights a case of disseminated and recurrent infundibulofolliculitis in a 45-year-old African American male and underscores the importance of performing a skin biopsy for diagnosis.

This study found that mackerel fermented fish oil protected human keratinocyte cells from UVB-induced oxidative stress by scavenging free radicals and reducing cellular damage.

This study found that the treatment group experienced a higher average increase in hair counts than the placebo group, but the difference was not statistically significant.

This study identified an unexpected critical role for the FATP4 protein in skin and hair development in mice, linking it to a potential candidate gene for restrictive dermopathy in humans.

This study found that the SAFE System may improve follicular unit extraction by reducing follicle transection rates and broadening patient eligibility, with only minor adverse reactions reported.

This study reports that ritlecitinib was prescribed to a diverse group of patients, including adolescents and adults with and without prior treatment for Alopecia Areata, in the first three months after FDA approval, potentially expanding care options for this condition.

Using testosterone-stimulated weanling rats can effectively replace castrated rats for anti-androgen testing, reducing animal stress.

This study found that among women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, 100% showed dermoscopic elements suggestive of the condition, with perifollicular erythema often indicating disease activity.
