This study analyzed research trends in discoid lupus erythematosus, revealing shifting focus areas and highlighted the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration between dermatology and other fields.

In this study, dutasteride 0.5 mg was found to provide long-term efficacy and safety in treating androgenetic alopecia in Korean men, with 89.9% showing improvement and 93.9% experiencing prevention of disease progression over at least 5 years.

This study found that 29.4% of patients treated with methotrexate for non-hair-related conditions experienced increased hair loss, with more frequent reports among women.

This study found that cortisol concentrations were significantly higher in hair samples with follicles compared to those without, suggesting potential confounding in stress assessments using different hair sampling methods.

This study found that using spanlastics, a nano, surfactant-based drug delivery system, improved the bioavailability, drug release characteristics, and pharmacokinetic behavior of famotidine, a poorly soluble drug, by enhancing its dissolution and membrane permeation.

This review suggests that a dual treatment approach using Nourella® cream with nano-encapsulated Retilex-A® and per-oral Vercilex® tablets may effectively improve skin thickness, elasticity, and overall rejuvenation in aging skin, as shown in interventional studies.

This study reported that peanut callus extract, rich in resveratrol, significantly stimulated hair growth and reduced hair loss in an in vitro model and a clinical trial, showing promise as a cosmetic bioactive ingredient.

In this study using a rabbit model, higher incidences of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome were observed in animals given the α-blocker tamsulosin, suggesting a potential association with increased iris billowing during eye surgery.

This study found that UV exposure in human skin induces IL-10 production by macrophages, while Langerhans cells are depleted and their IL-12 production is downregulated.

This study found that exposing seasonally anestrous mares to extended light periods led to the earlier onset of endocrinologically normal estrous cycles, potentially allowing earlier breeding and foaling.

This case study describes the successful use of recombinant feline interferon-omega in managing feline chronic gingivostomatitis syndrome in cats with type II diabetes, where long-acting corticosteroids are contraindicated.

This retrospective study in pediatric patients with Sjögren's syndrome found consistent indications of tear film instability and identified systemic features like arthralgia, Raynaud's phenomenon, and frequent autoantibody positivity, underscoring the value of integrating clinical and ophthalmological assessments for early diagnosis.

This study found that the "pink tax" persists in topical minoxidil products, with foams marketed to women costing about 20% more than those for men, despite identical ingredients and an overall price increase since 2017.

This study found that a natural illite-based carrier could deliver minoxidil topically with preserved efficacy, minimizing solvent toxicity, and showed hair-growth-promoting activity via anti-inflammatory and pro-proliferative mechanisms in mice.

This review discusses the potential medicinal properties and pharmacokinetic features of nettle compounds ursolic acid and quercetin, highlighting quercetin as a promising candidate for antioxidant and anti-aging effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that hippocampus sparing whole brain radiation therapy (HS-WBRT) using multi-field intensity modulated radiation therapy prevents alopecia without compromising cognitive function compared to traditional whole brain radiation therapy.

This review discusses the use of medicinal plants for combating and preventing alopecia but reports no clinical results, emphasizing the presence of plant-based cosmetics on the market.

This study used association rule mining and network analysis to identify frequently combined herb sets for treating alopecia from 56 articles, highlighting the potential of Polygonum multiflorum, Angelica sinensis, and Ligusticum chuanxiong in traditional medicine and suggesting further bioinformatics research to understand their efficacy.

This study found that acute stress in rats inhibits hair growth, likely through increased cortisol levels and activation of the substance P-mast cell pathway.

This study found that patients with a greater awareness and understanding of androgenetic alopecia were more likely to seek treatment, suggesting that education may increase treatment willingness.

This case report highlights the importance of early mycological diagnostics, supported by dermoscopy and ultraviolet-enhanced fluorescence dermoscopy, in preventing scarring from kerion celsi-associated hair loss in children.

This study found that a cocktail of three proteins from embryonic skin can enable adult fibroblasts to regenerate hair follicles by altering gene expression and activating regenerative signaling pathways.

Wigs significantly improve the well-being of people with severe hair loss.

The study reported that reducing finasteride particle size significantly improved its cellular permeation through prostate epithelial cells, though it had a lesser impact on systemic pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution in rats.

This study found that combining oral minoxidil, oral dutasteride, and dutasteride mesotherapy was the most effective treatment for androgenetic alopecia, with improved outcomes at 12 months and a favorable safety profile, compared to other treatment combinations.

This case report highlights a rare instance of visceral leishmaniasis presenting as seropositive rheumatoid arthritis in a patient with HIV, emphasizing the importance of considering chronic infections as a differential diagnosis in inflammatory arthritis, especially in diverse populations with a history of travel.

This study suggests that topically applied fusidic acid may penetrate only the most superficial layers of canine skin but can reach sufficient concentrations to potentially treat infections caused by pathogenic staphylococci.

This study found that components derived from Sansevieria trifasciata demonstrated notable antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Streptococcus aureus, highlighting potential for developing new antibacterial agents.

In this genetic study, the researchers found that variants in the CLEC4D gene are significantly associated with the development of alopecia areata among individuals in the Jordanian population, pointing to a potential genetic influence on the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found low concordance between distal and proximal hair cortisol concentrations during early pregnancy, particularly when measured with different assay methods.
