This study used ultrahigh-resolution optical coherence tomography to observe hair shaft structures, finding melanin granules absent only in white hair, which may explain color differences between black and white hair.

This study identified 374 eQTLs in scalp hair follicles associated with genes involved in metabolic, mitotic, immune processes, and responses to steroid hormones, contributing insights into genetic variation and hair traits.

This study identified two distinct trichoscopic patterns in the mid-frontal scalp of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia who also display clinical features of androgenetic alopecia.

This review outlines various causes and manifestations of hair loss, highlighting that each type has distinct underlying mechanisms and requires specific treatment approaches, without reporting new clinical results.

This paper presents a case of a young male with linear and annular lupus panniculitis of the scalp, detailing trichoscopic findings and their correlation with histopathological features, but reports no new generalizable results.

In this study, trichoscopy was found to be a valuable non-invasive tool for diagnosing scalp lesions, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and reducing the need for scalp biopsies by identifying specific trichoscopic features associated with conditions like psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and alopecia areata.

This study found that videodermoscopy is a promising non-invasive tool for distinguishing between types of non-scarring alopecia on the scalp, highlighting its potential in dermatological practice.

Treat pediatric skin issues with accurate diagnosis, multidisciplinary team, and various treatment options.

This review discusses female pattern hair loss, its psychological impact, and available treatments but provides no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize early intervention for better outcomes.

This study found that follicular acantholysis is a common histopathological feature in pemphigus, with differences in depth between pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus lesions that may aid in diagnosis.

This study found that transthyretin and megalin expression in human scalp hair follicles varies significantly with the hair growth cycle, peaking during anagen and diminishing in catagen and telogen phases.

This study identified shared gene expression changes and immune cell infiltration patterns that may contribute to hair loss in alopecia areata and cutaneous lupus erythematosus, but also highlighted factors that might preserve hair in psoriasis patients.

This study reported that vitiligo patients in Turkey had a high prevalence of associated autoimmune diseases and auditory problems, suggesting vitiligo may be part of a systemic autoimmune process.

This review examines dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis, highlighting the role of Malassezia yeasts in inflammation and hyper-proliferation, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study demonstrates that inhibiting SFRP1 with the antagonist WAY-316606 enhances hair growth in human scalp hair follicles ex vivo by facilitating Wnt signalling.

In this study, ovarian SAHA was found to be independently associated with a more insulin-resistant profile and increased risk of glucose abnormalities in women with PCOS, beyond common risk factors.

This study found that ATM protein plays a crucial role in protecting human hair follicle melanocytes from oxidative stress, which is linked to the greying of hair.

This study found that targeting both hormonal and immune pathways improved treatment outcomes in androgenetic alopecia patients with an under-recognized inflammatory component called PIILIF, which may contribute to treatment resistance.

In this study, elevated serum levels of aldosterone and free testosterone, along with increased androgen and aldosterone receptor levels, were associated with early-onset androgenetic alopecia in female patients.

Mutations in Far2 mice cause hair loss due to sebaceous gland issues.

This study found that a mutation causing Stormorken syndrome in mice led to skeletal abnormalities and unusual hair growth, showcasing the STIM1 R304W protein’s role in bone development and cell fate.

This review discusses the clinical characteristics of alopecia in cancer patients, highlighting its potential role as an associated finding or diagnostic clue, but reports no new clinical results.

Caffeine may help hair growth in hereditary hair loss.

This letter to the editor discusses a case of delayed-onset pachyonychia congenita linked to a new mutation in keratin 6b but presents no new research findings.

This review discusses the biology of hair follicles and common hair disorders in the elderly but reports no new clinical results.

This study in Egyptian children found that scalp hair loss significantly impacts quality of life, with nearly half experiencing severe emotional and social challenges, particularly those with alopecia areata and tinea capitis.

This case report describes a 1-month-old male infant with Netherton syndrome, characterized by severe hypernatremia, skin and scalp issues, highlighting the syndrome's complications, including growth retardation and infection risks in early life.

This review discusses the pathobiology of chemotherapy-induced alopecia and highlights challenges in managing it, reporting no new clinical results and emphasizing the need for well-designed preclinical models to develop effective treatments.

This paper discusses the use of dermatoscopy as a fast, noninvasive technique for diagnosing hair shaft disorders and reports no new results; the authors highlight its advantages over traditional microscopy methods.

This article presents two cases of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans and reviews its features, highlighting characteristic progression from keratosis pilaris in infancy to cicatricial alopecia in childhood.
