This study concluded that a new model of reconstructed human epidermis using keratinocytes from plucked hair follicles offers a less-invasive alternative to conventional skin-derived models for skin research.

This study suggests that identified polymorphisms may serve as markers for assessing an individual's risk of developing prostate cancer.

Hair changes could indicate neurological diseases and help monitor treatment.

This article discusses the withdrawal of bamlanivimab monotherapy's emergency use authorization in the U.S. due to evolving COVID-19 variants and offers no new clinical data.

This study concluded that visits to emergency and urgent care centers for severe sunburn treatment are largely avoidable and contribute to significant healthcare costs.

In this study, researchers found an inverse association between baldness and testicular cancer, suggesting androgen activity may influence cancer risk.

This study evaluated eight JAK inhibitor regimens for alopecia areata and provided high-quality evidence on their comparative effectiveness, which can aid clinicians in decision-making and inform medical practice guidelines.

This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.

This study found no significant genetic association between the 5α-reductase enzyme genes and male pattern baldness, suggesting a polygenic etiology rather than simple inheritance.

This study found that a new topical nitric oxide gel significantly accelerated burn wound healing in mice by enhancing re-epithelialization, hair follicle regeneration, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis compared to controls.

This guide reviews the biology of sebaceous glands and their evaluation methods, emphasizing their roles beyond lipid production in skin health and disease, and reports no new research results.

This study used proteomics to identify various proteins in human hair, which may help develop novel biomarkers for hair health, disease, and aging.

This study suggests that prolactin has complex, gender- and location-dependent effects on human hair follicles, promoting hair growth in female frontotemporal scalp areas while inhibiting it in male occipital regions.

This review discusses five genetic fate mapping methods used to study cell behaviors during development and regeneration, detailing the necessary tools and considerations without reporting new experimental results.

Smartphone-based teledermatology is effective for diagnosing skin diseases in the military with good accuracy.

In this study, low grade inflammation was associated with skin conditions like atopic eczema, onychomycosis, and rosacea in an adult Finnish population.

This study identified key mRNAs and lncRNAs, along with related pathways, that play potentially important roles in hair follicle development and cycling in cashmere goats.

A combined drug and laser treatment improved hirsutism in a PCOS patient, also enhancing her heart health and requiring regular liver and kidney checks.

This review discusses the complexities of diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new results; the authors suggest a thorough and careful diagnostic approach to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary tests.

This review discusses the evaluation of hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men across different life stages and presents biomarkers used for diagnosing male hypogonadism, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers observed that quiescent mouse embryonic fibroblasts showed reduced glycolysis but increased TCA cycle flux and mitochondrial respiration, with these changes linked to metabolic reprogramming involving yes-associated protein inhibition and malate cycle modulation, which supports extracellular matrix protein synthesis.

This study found that a modest increase in dietary zinc over six months resulted in a detectable increase in sulfur and zinc counts in individual hairs, suggesting a non-invasive method to monitor zinc intake effects.

This study evaluated the Polish version of Skindex-29, demonstrating its reliability and validity as a tool to measure quality of life in dermatology patients.

The researchers reported that several m6A-related genes, particularly IGF2BP3, were differentially expressed in keloid tissue compared to normal skin, indicating potential targets for understanding keloid pathogenesis and treatment.

In this study, ceruloplasmin and keratin 4 were identified as markers that differentiate between growing and resting phases in cashmere goat hair follicles, with keratin 4 being a potential marker for the onset of a new hair cycle.

This study found that normal ALT levels in women of reproductive age are linked with metabolic and androgenic abnormalities, suggesting ALT could be used beyond liver disease diagnoses.

This meta-analysis found that platelet-rich plasma treatments significantly increased hair density in patients with androgenic alopecia, with results influenced by treatment frequency and patient age.

In this study, a herbal extract mixture significantly reduced IL-1α gene expression in HaCaT cells, suggesting it may aid in the treatment of nonscarring alopecia.

This review aims to help medical practitioners understand inferential statistical methods to critically evaluate clinical trial design and analyses, but it doesn’t present new research findings.

This study developed and validated a comprehensive method using mass spectrometry to profile sex (pro)hormones in plasma, with results showing reliable calibration and detection of 31 analytes in samples from pre- and postmenopausal women and men, while addressing potential over- or underestimations in analyte concentrations.
