This study found that by using an automated system to analyze skin histology, 108 structural features were significantly affected by age, and it identified four new aging biomarkers and notable sex-based differences in skin aging.

In this study, researchers identified over 250 new genetic loci linked to severe male pattern baldness, and developed a prediction algorithm that could accurately differentiate between those with severe and no hair loss.

This study suggests that targeting olfactory receptors in the lung epithelium might help treat odorant-induced asthma in cases without type 2 inflammation, as these receptors could play a role in airway sensitivity to smells.

This study identified novel endophytic actinobacteria from the Citrullus colocynthis plant with antibacterial properties, suggesting potential for new antibiotic development against multi-drug-resistant bacteria.

This study found that after 24 weeks of bimatoprost 0.01% treatment, significant improvements in the density and diameter of eyebrow hair were observed, most notably in the tail section of the eyebrow.

This study suggests that age-related regenerative decline in hair follicles may be due to an imbalance of signals affecting stem cell activation, with follistatin potentially promoting renewal.

This article discusses the SLICC's revision and validation of the ACR SLE classification criteria to enhance clinical relevance and integrate recent immunological insights, but does not report new clinical results.

This case report details a 13-year-old Thai boy with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, who presented with cardiovascular complications, including coronary artery calcification and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

This study found that a combination of oral compounds improved metabolic activity, cell viability, and proliferation in hair follicular keratinocytes, with L-cystine playing a key role in protection against oxidative stress.

In this case report, a 30-year-old male with alopecia universalis and autoimmune conditions experienced treatment failure with JAK inhibitors, including ritlecitinib, and developed severe musculoskeletal pain, indicating a potential novel adverse effect that warrants further pharmacovigilance.

In this study conducted in Trinidad, higher income was associated with reduced risk of menstrual dysfunction and combined hyperandrogenism/menstrual dysfunction, impacting mental and overall health in women with probable PCOS.

This study found that bacterially induced metabolic changes in stem cells can enhance skin and hair follicle regeneration in both mice and humans, suggesting potential strategies for improving recovery after injury.

This study reports the development of a microemulsion using Momordica charantia extract, which demonstrated strong antioxidant and 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, potentially aiding hair loss management. The microemulsion was stable over 12 weeks, suggesting its future potential for cosmetic or pharmacological applications.

This study found that among women with PCOS, 23% exhibited impaired glucose tolerance and 9% had type 2 diabetes, with age, BMI, and SHBG being key predictors of these glucose abnormalities.

This study found that children with cancer showed more deviation from typical facial morphology compared to healthy controls, although the differences were not enough to distinguish patients from controls based on facial asymmetry alone.

Low-dose Minoxidil combined with Spironolactone helps reduce hair loss and improve hair density in women, with some mild side effects.

This review discusses the similarities between wound healing and embryonic development, focusing on signaling pathways and their potential for developing new wound healing strategies, and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, correlations between urinary and serum androgen metabolites were examined in girls aged 6-13, revealing that summed urinary metabolites strongly correspond with circulating androstenedione and testosterone levels, though individual variations depend on participant characteristics such as age and body measurements.

This narrative review proposes the concept of "repigmentation competence" for vitiligo lesions, suggesting that therapy responses are influenced by lesion-specific biological factors related to immune, regenerative, regulatory, and microenvironmental processes, and highlights the emerging role of combination therapies targeting these pathways.

In this study, a new herbal hair oil formulation, consisting of plant-derived antifungal agents and natural stabilizers, was developed and demonstrated strong antifungal activity, skin compatibility, and additional hair health benefits in preclinical evaluations, offering a potential alternative for managing fungal scalp infections.

This review explores both traditional Ayurvedic uses and modern scientific findings on Japa Pushpa (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis), suggesting it may benefit cardiovascular health and metabolic balance as a herbal tea, but emphasizes the need for further clinical validation.

This study found that certain proteins linked to immune suppression and melanogenesis are associated with repigmentation in vitiligo patients undergoing standard treatment, suggesting these proteins and their pathways play roles distinct from merely reversing skin lesions.

This study reports that Rituximab may be a safe and effective treatment for refractory juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus complicated by macrophage activation syndrome, allowing for successful steroid tapering.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This study found that compounds from *Tectona grandis* leaves showed moderate inhibition of steroid 5α-reductase, a factor in androgenetic alopecia, and exhibited anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-6 in vitro, suggesting potential dual-action benefits for AGA management.

This study found that the leaf extract of Tectona grandis and its major bioactive constituents moderately inhibit the 5α-reductase enzyme, which is linked to androgenetic alopecia, and also possess anti-inflammatory properties, showing promise as dual-action candidates for managing this condition.

This systematic review suggests that platelet-rich plasma may improve hair density, follicle survival, and hair growth when used with hair transplantation, though varied methods and lack of standardized evaluation limit the findings.

In this study, researchers used spatial transcriptomics to identify increased expression of genes linked to extracellular matrix organization and epithelial–mesenchymal transition in the progenitor cell regions of hair follicles in androgenetic alopecia patients, suggesting a possible role in progenitor cell loss and fibrogenic microenvironment development.

This study highlights the global prevalence of hirsutism in women and reviews its diagnostic criteria, potential underlying causes like polycystic ovary syndrome, and treatment options, emphasizing the need for tailored, multifaceted management and acknowledging the distress it causes patients.
