This study reported that alopecic lesions after radiation exposure during angioembolization share dermoscopic features with alopecia areata, highlighting the importance of accurate patient history to avoid misdiagnosis.

In this study, low-level light therapy using a new helmet-type device significantly increased hair density and thickness in patients with androgenetic alopecia, showing no adverse events or side effects, suggesting it may be a safe and effective treatment option for both sexes.

This study developed a new semiquantitative grading scale for frontal and vertex androgenetic alopecia, which was found to be more sensitive and objective than existing classifications.

This study introduced a noninvasive spectroscopy method to assess hair follicle stages in mice by measuring skin diffuse reflectance and melanin dynamics, offering a potential tool for hair regeneration research.

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.

In this study, the researchers found that a 28-day topical treatment with a postbiotic ferment complex notably altered the scalp microbiome in women with sensitive scalps, increasing certain bacterial species and decreasing others, while also reportedly alleviating symptoms of sensitive skin syndrome in all participants.

This study found that consuming raw cheonggukjang improved various measures of scalp hair condition in middle-aged women over a 12-week period.

The document corrects a mistake by stating that pimecrolimus, not tacrolimus, is the drug that concentrates in the skin.

This review highlights the importance of recognizing mucocutaneous lesions in diagnosing juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus, noting that these lesions often improve with controlled lupus and can indicate disease activity.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding the cellular, molecular, and genetic factors contributing to lupus erythematosus and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that compared to influenza patients, COVID-19 patients had fewer complications overall, but exceptions with higher risks were seen in hair loss, heart failure, mood disorder, and dementia.

This study found that in men with androgenic alopecia, moderate to severe cases were associated with the AA genotype of rs1160312, blood vanadium concentrations, and regular consumption of soy bean drinks.

The researchers reported that the antipsoriatic compounds 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 and calcipotriol thinned the living cell compartment in organotypic ORS cultures by accelerating the differentiation pathway rather than affecting proliferation.

The combination of gemcitabine and vinorelbine is effective and safe for treating elderly patients with advanced breast cancer previously treated with anthracyclines and taxanes.

This study found that using nanoporous silica entrapped lipid-drug complexes enhanced the solubility and bioavailability of dutasteride in beagle dogs.

In this study, researchers observed that Malassezia species show different lipid metabolism and growth patterns depending on pH, with slightly acidic conditions promoting beneficial lipid bio-conversion for skin health, while neutral pH resulted in lower growth and lipid content, potentially negatively impacting the skin.

This study found that hairline lowering surgery using a bone tunneling technique without Endotine effectively reduced forehead length and achieved high patient satisfaction among 91 participants, with results sustained over 12 months and minimal reported complications.

This study found that using a combination of video microscope for slivering and loupe magnification for graft-cutting in hair transplants achieved nearly double the graft productivity with similar transection rates compared to using only a digital video microscope.

In this study, photodynamic therapy was found to achieve permanent reduction of nonpigmented hair in mice, unlike an 800-nm diode laser, by targeting the hair matrix through repeated sessions.

This letter to the editor discusses the prevalence of frontal-vertex baldness and its association with family history in Korean men but reports no new findings.

This study found that Thermobalancing therapy using Dr Allen's Device significantly improved symptoms and quality of life in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, but larger prostate sizes may require longer treatment.

This study reviewed medical records of tinea capitis patients at a clinic in Surabaya, finding that the condition predominantly affected young males and was often associated with contact with cats.

This study found that in the Indian population, SLE patients with only skin manifestations often had a positive immunological profile, suggesting early identification of disease before systemic symptoms develop.

This clinical trial reported that Sandalore® 1% significantly reduced hair shedding and increased hair volume and anagen HFs in women with telogen effluvium compared to placebo, supporting its potential use in hair growth treatments.

This study observed that while alopecia treatment in patients showed some improvements in quality of life and anxiety scores at six months, these changes were not statistically significant.

This study found that combining D-004 with finasteride results in more significant prevention of testosterone-induced prostate enlargement in rats compared to using either treatment alone.

Certain drugs can cause lupus, stopping these drugs is the main treatment. NB-UVB phototherapy clears psoriasis faster when applied three times a week. Monoclonal antibodies and oral pimecrolimus are effective in treating psoriasis. Smoking and drinking are linked to psoriasis in men. No direct link between low iron and hair loss was found. Vaccines are effective against genital herpes and human papillomavirus type 16.
