Certain variations of the HDAC9 gene can increase or decrease stroke risk in the Chinese population.

This study found no evidence that androgen receptor copy number variation is associated with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting it is unlikely to be a contributing factor.

This study found that two MC4R gene polymorphisms are associated with higher BMI in women with PCOS in western Saudi Arabia, but are not linked to PCOS itself.

This study suggests that high consumption of raw vegetables and fresh herbs, which are part of the Mediterranean diet, may reduce the risk of androgenetic alopecia in genetically predisposed men.

In this study of Han Chinese women, the mitochondrial DNA N haplogroup was associated with a higher risk of late-onset systemic lupus erythematosus and its specific manifestations, such as skin impairment and neurological disturbances.

In this study, whole-genome sequencing of Lanping black-boned sheep identified ERBB4 and ROR1 genes as potentially important in their distinctive hyperpigmentation, enhancing understanding of their genetic evolution from Lanping normal sheep.

This study found that in PCOS patients, variations in the lipin 1 gene, particularly the intron 1 SNP, may protect against insulin resistance and glucose intolerance, highlighting a potential genetic factor in the disorder's cardiometabolic complications.

In this study, microarray and proteomic analyses indicated that genes involved in immune response, receptor binding, and growth factor activity might influence wool fibre diameter in sheep.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found 30 genetic loci associated with skin ageing phenotypes, noting shared biological pathways in aspects like pigmentation and wrinkling; researchers suggest further studies targeting the same SNP across populations could clarify these associations.

This study investigated the genetic basis of coat color variation in cattle using skin transcriptome and whole-genome analyses, identifying the ASIP gene as a significant determinant that is differentially expressed and under strong positive selection in black and brown cattle breeds.

This review discusses existing forensic DNA phenotyping panels for biogeographical ancestry and externally visible characteristics and highlights major technical limitations, including terminology issues, genetic knowledge gaps, and technological debates; it reports no new results.

This study found that the cross-section trichometer (HairCheck device) can accurately and sensitively measure hair mass index changes, offering a convenient tool for assessing hair density and diameter in patients with alopecia.

This Mendelian randomization study suggests possible bidirectional causal links between alopecia and sleep characteristics, but findings require cautious interpretation due to multiple testing, highlighting the need for further research to explore underlying mechanisms and broader applicability.

This case report from Qatar highlights the failure of traditional diagnostic approaches in a young woman with severe hair loss, emphasizing the potential benefits of DNA-guided nutrigenomics and the importance of compassionate communication in addressing psychosocial distress.

This review highlights how the development of forensic DNA phenotyping systems like IrisPlex, HIrisPlex, and HIrisPlex-S has advanced criminal investigation by accurately predicting physical traits such as eye, hair, and skin color from DNA, thereby improving the precision and relevance of forensic applications.

This study examines the role of immune phenotypes and cytokines in the development of pathological scars, providing insights that may aid in early identification and treatment strategies for these scars.

This study found that variations in the genes PDCD4, miR-21, and miR-449b may significantly influence breast cancer progression, with higher PDCD4 serum levels linked to increased breastfeeding.

This study found that faster algorithms for inferring ancestry in genomic data can better capture historical and functional insights into genome variation than traditional methods in large datasets like the UK Biobank.

This study found that genetic variants linked to hypothyroidism significantly increased the risk of developing alopecia areata, suggesting a causative connection between the two conditions.

This study reported that a 1% ivermectin topical cream for rosacea was stable over six months, showing no significant changes in key physical properties or microbial contamination, suggesting it may reduce chronic antibiotic use in rosacea treatment.

This study suggests that eNOS and STAT6 gene polymorphisms may increase the risk of developing PCOS in South Indian women.

This study mapped copy number variations in Chinese fine-wool sheep, identifying regions linked to important traits like milk production and growth, and highlighting a strong selection signal at the RXFP2 gene.

This study constructed a genomic map of copy number variations in fine-wool sheep, revealing their potential impact on traits like growth, nutrient metabolism, and susceptibility to selection pressures.

This case report describes the treatment of a 12-year-old female with Alopecia Areata using oral azathioprine.

In this study, NKG2D polymorphism was not linked to increased susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus among Egyptian patients living in the Suez Canal area.

This study observed that Greek Caucasian women with PCOS had distinct serum hormone levels and a specific AKT2 gene SNP, which may play a role in the condition's characteristics.

This study evaluated the accuracy of the HairCheck device, a cross-section trichometer, and concluded that it effectively measures changes in hair diameter and density for assessing alopecia progression and treatment response.

This study found that certain polymorphisms in EGF and EGFR genes may increase susceptibility to alopecia areata in the Korean population, and these genetic variations could be associated with specific symptoms such as nail involvement and body hair loss.

This study found that the PSEN1-P242LfsX11 mutation in hidradenitis suppurativa influences cytokine and chemokine expression in macrophages, potentially affecting inflammatory responses.

This article reviews the objectives and design of the Rotterdam Study and summarizes key findings across its focus on various diseases, without reporting new experimental results.
