In this study, higher scores of HOMA-IR and FIRI suggested that male patients with early-onset androgenetic alopecia may have insulin resistance, although no significant differences in metabolic syndrome were found compared to controls.

This study revealed that deficiency in the enzyme FA2H in mice affected sebaceous gland function, altered sebum composition, and caused cycling alopecia, highlighting FA2H's role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This article discusses various patterns of hair loss associated with lupus erythematosus, emphasizing the importance of identifying the specific type to aid in classifying systemic lupus erythematosus.

This review discusses the significant burden of disease and psychosocial implications associated with alopecia, highlighting its comorbidities and the impact on quality of life despite being viewed traditionally as an aesthetic concern, but reports no clinical results.

This article examines the role and composition of integral hair lipids in forming a protective barrier similar to the skin's epidermal lipid layer and reports no new findings about their effects.

This review summarizes current and emerging treatments for common hair loss conditions, highlighting good evidence for androgenetic alopecia but noting the lack of long-term data for alopecia areata and cicatricial alopecias.

In this study, certain trichoscopic features were found to be sensitive and specific for diagnosing primary cicatricial alopecias and its subtypes using dermatoscopy.

In this study, pioglitazone treatment in patients with lichen planopilaris showed limited success, with significant improvement seen in only a minority of cases.

This review summarized multiple molecular markers studied for their association with dry skin, finding considerable variability and uncertainty about which markers best indicate xerosis cutis.

This review reports no new clinical results but discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution as a distinct scarring alopecia with characteristics of both androgenetic alopecia and lichen planopilaris.

This review discusses follicular and scarring disorders in skin of color and highlights the need for patient education and tailored therapeutic strategies, but does not report new clinical findings.
