This study identified 63 genetic loci associated with male-pattern baldness, uncovering genes and pathways that may help develop treatments and suggesting its connection to other human conditions.

This study found that tofacitinib shows reasonable effectiveness for treating alopecia areata with mild adverse effects, although more large-scale randomized trials are needed to fully assess its safety and efficacy.

This study found that men with a paternal history of hair loss were significantly more likely to experience hair loss themselves.

In this study, premature coronary artery disease in Indians under 40 was linked to factors like dyslipidemia, low HDL-C, smoking, and central obesity, with cutaneous markers significantly associated.

This study found that patients with severe vertex pattern androgenetic alopecia had significantly higher carotid intima-media thickness, suggesting an increased risk of subclinical atherosclerosis compared to other alopecia patterns and healthy controls.

This study observed that scalp melanomas in older men often grow rapidly, appear without pigment, and have more aggressive features compared to other head and neck melanomas.

This study found that individuals with AA have a higher incidence of atopic and autoimmune conditions, suggesting both Th1 and Th2 immune responses may play a role in its development.

This meta-analysis found that vertex pattern androgenetic alopecia was associated with an increased risk of developing prostate cancer, while other androgenetic alopecia patterns did not show a significant link.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome phenotypes A and B had the highest prevalence of metabolic syndrome, and that the visceral adiposity index may help predict metabolic risk.

This study found that low iron stores are a risk factor for excessive hair loss in non-menopausal women.

This study found that acne keloidalis nuchae was associated with pseudofolliculitis barbae, chronic scalp folliculitis, and aspects of the metabolic syndrome, particularly hypertension, in the examined population.

This study found that males with androgenetic alopecia had a higher risk of coronary artery disease, with significant differences in several lipid and blood pressure markers compared to controls.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have elevated cardiovascular risk markers, with levels being higher in obese participants compared to non-obese participants.

This study found that among older men, low levels of free dihydrotestosterone were associated with an increased risk of developing atrial fibrillation.

This study found that striae distensae was significantly more common in women born prematurely compared to those born at term.

This study found that an unhealthy lifestyle, including factors like past smoking and lack of fruit/vegetables in the diet, was associated with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome.

This study found that males treated with serotonergic antidepressants had an increased risk of erectile dysfunction, with an adjusted odds ratio of 3.2, and the risk for post-SSRI sexual dysfunction was 0.46%, emphasizing the importance of informed consent due to these potential irreversible side effects.

This study suggests that both men and women with higher body hair density may have an increased risk of developing basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

This report describes a case of lichen planopilaris potentially triggered by chronic scalp trauma from break dancing, emphasizing the need for careful examination to differentiate it from androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses premature graying of hair, highlighting risk factors like smoking and vitamin deficiencies, and suggests that addressing underlying conditions may reverse the graying process.

This study found no evidence that finasteride use is associated with an increased risk of male breast cancer.

In this study, male Koreans with androgenetic alopecia showed a significant association with hypertension, whereas females did not demonstrate this link.

In this study, researchers found that sepsis or septic shock significantly increased the risk of patient-reported alopecia in survivors of critical illness.

This study found that patients with mycosis fungoides have higher levels of cardiovascular risk markers, suggesting an increased cardiovascular risk in this group compared to healthy controls.

This study found that females exposed to high cumulative doses of cyproterone acetate had a 6–20 fold increased risk of developing meningiomas compared to those on lower doses.

This study found an association between atopic dermatitis and autoimmune diseases in both adults and children, with women more likely to experience these complications, but further research is needed due to limited participant numbers.

This study found that hypospadias in male children is significantly associated with genetic polymorphisms in the Steroid 5 alpha reductase type 2 gene, higher parental age, consanguinity, rural residence, and preterm labor, with maternal age and rural residence being the strongest independent predictors.

This study conducted in Egypt evaluated antifungal treatments for sheep with dermatophytosis, finding that tioconazole cream, clotrimazole spray, and fluconazole capsules were effective, with tioconazole cream providing an easily applicable and highly effective topical option, achieving a 100% cure rate in the short term.

This study suggests that there is no clinically significant association between alopecia areata and the incidence of common infections, potentially reflecting increased healthcare engagement rather than a true link.
