The new treatment improved keratosis pilaris symptoms and mood in 28 days.

More symptoms during initial COVID infection increase the risk of long-term effects.

This study found that a proprietary saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) extract significantly increased hair growth and reduced hair shedding in men and women with self-perceived thinning hair over a 90-day period, compared to placebo, without reported adverse events.

This study developed and initially validated the Scale of Alopecia Areata Distress (SAAD), a 41-item tool designed to measure psychosocial distress among US adults with alopecia areata.

This study found that individuals with androgenetic alopecia experience significantly higher symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress compared to controls, along with reduced self-esteem and life satisfaction, highlighting the importance of addressing psychological well-being in clinical treatments.

This review discusses the similarities and differences between normal stem cell proliferation and cancer cell oncogenesis and concludes that understanding these mechanisms could improve cancer treatment strategies, but it reports no novel findings.

This study found that older age at puberty may be associated with lower semen quality and altered reproductive hormone levels in young men, though only some results were statistically significant.

This study found that men who underwent hair transplantation at Vera Clinic experienced significant improvements in self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, and sexual functioning over 12 months, suggesting enhanced psychological well-being and relational functioning associated with the procedure.

This study found that bleach treatments significantly increased hair surface roughness and decreased Young's modulus, indicating marked changes in hair's molecular structure which may affect future hair-care product formulation.

This study found that conditioned medium from keratinocytes improved the hair-inductive properties of cultured dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential for enhancing hair follicle regeneration.

This study found that glycyrrhizic acid significantly reduced stem cell characteristics of dermal papilla cells by down-regulating key signaling pathways, suggesting potential use in suppressing unwanted hair growth.

This article suggests that most topical treatments for acne and unwanted hair growth are safe to use during pregnancy, except for hydroquinone and tretinoin, due to low systemic absorption.

In this study, researchers discovered that the HrasG12V oncogenic mutation in murine skin epithelial cells initially promotes progenitor cell renewal but later leads to a balanced differentiation, stabilizing clone growth.

In this study, researchers observed that oncogenic HrasG12V in single murine epidermal cells leads to an initial increase in progenitor cell renewal, but ultimately results in balanced cell fate choices that limit clone growth.

This study suggests that androgenetic alopecia may increase the risk of developing depression, but depression does not significantly contribute to the onset of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that pretreating concentrated growth factor with a 640 nm laser increased CD34+ stem cell activation and improved hair growth outcomes in androgenetic alopecia patients compared to non-pretreated CGF.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia significantly impairs quality of life among Nigerian patients, especially in areas like emotions, stigmatization, and self-confidence, highlighting the importance of psychosocial support.

In this pilot study, botulinum toxin was found to be a safe and effective treatment for androgenetic alopecia in most participants, though larger studies are needed to confirm these findings.

This study reviews the complex keratinization process in the epidermis, detailing how various factors regulate keratinocyte differentiation and emphasizing the importance of understanding this process for the pathogenesis of skin disorders like ichthyoses and psoriasis.

Preoperative stress markers alone don't predict chronic post-surgical pain.

This study found that while finasteride effectively improves hair growth in male androgenetic alopecia, it may affect fertility at higher doses, and the evidence on its long-term sexual side effects is inconsistent and requires more rigorous research.

The study on androgenetic alopecia reported that microneedling with concentrated growth factor significantly improved hair regrowth in patients over two years, without age influencing the outcome, and recorded no significant adverse reactions.

This survey reported that Americans often view hair loss as affecting their attractiveness and consider hair transplantation a valuable option, with women willing to pay more than men despite being less likely to undergo the procedure.

This study developed two highly reliable Arabic HRQoL questionnaires for evaluating quality of life in married and unmarried women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study reports that human eccrine sweat gland cells are capable of forming a stratified epidermis, suggesting they may serve as an additional source of keratinocytes for skin repair.

This manuscript reviews the latest understanding of alopecia areata's pathogenesis, highlighting the roles of genetic, immunological, and environmental factors, with a focus on immune responses involving IFN-γ and cytotoxic CD8+ T-cells as key contributors to hair follicle inflammation and function disruption without follicle destruction.

This study found that the revised 43-item PCOSQ had better validity and reliability than the original version, although further studies are needed to assess its predictive efficacy.

In this study, the researchers discovered that specific polyamine depletion enhances stemness in hair follicle stem cells through a mechanism independent of mRNA translation.

This study found that dermal stem cells from granulation tissue promoted wound healing and reduced fibrosis in a combined radiation and skin wound mouse model.

This review discusses recent advancements and ongoing challenges in engineering human skin with appendages using scaffold-free and scaffold-based bioengineering approaches, but it reports no new clinical results.
