This study indicates that the thermoregulatory hypothesis is most likely the main factor behind the evolution of hairlessness in humans.

This study found that sericin dressing containing collagen hydrolysate significantly reduced wound healing time and improved scar quality compared to commercial dressing in split-thickness skin graft donor sites.

This study reports on three cases where Shengyang Sanhuo Decoction, a traditional treatment, was used to address alopecia by supporting spleen and stomach health, as theorized to counteract causes like emotional stress and improper diet.

This study concluded that estimating split thickness skin graft take by observation is as reliable as using the Image J digital program.

This case report identifies a novel LIPH gene mutation linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis in a Japanese boy, expanding the spectrum of known mutations associated with this condition.

Both methods of platelet-rich plasma showed positive effects on hair loss.

This study found that placebo groups in split-scalp PRP trials for androgenetic alopecia showed less hair loss compared to whole-head trial placebo groups, likely due to PRP diffusion in split-scalp designs.

In this study, Chinese comprehensive therapy was found to effectively improve symptoms and promote hair growth in individuals with androgenetic alopecia of a specific traditional Chinese medicine pattern.

This study found an association between a splice site variant in the KRT71 gene and curly hair in Selkirk Rex cats, identifying a significant locus on chromosome B4.

This study found that topical CyA led to hair growth on human scalp skin grafts in nude mice, supporting its potential benefits for hair growth.

This study suggests the mechanical effect of injecting a solution is more important than the solution's nature in treating atrophic acne scars, with UBM sonography proposed for objective assessment.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma prepared using a double-spin method may be more effective for treating female pattern hair loss than single-spin PRP, although VEGF concentration was unaffected by either preparation method.

In this study, nanostructured lipid carriers for hair split-end repair showed similar efficacy regardless of charge, with negatively charged carriers exhibiting better stability over six months compared to positively charged ones.

Pill splitting increased generic finasteride sales but didn't affect branded finasteride sales.

This study outlines a randomized trial investigating the effects of botulinum toxin administered before hair transplantation to potentially improve outcomes by enhancing blood flow and reducing graft failure due to ischemia in androgenetic alopecia patients.

This study reviewed recent advancements in using botulinum toxin for treating androgenetic alopecia and emphasized the need for further research to determine the most effective injection sites and depths, as current strategies show inconsistent results.

This commentary discusses the crucial role of the alternative splicing factor Esrp1 in maintaining skin barrier function and its association with skin diseases like atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, overexpressing TSPO in the mouse hippocampal dentate gyrus led to significant anxiolytic and antidepressant-like effects, partly through increased allopregnanolone biosynthesis.

This study found that adding platelet-rich plasma to microneedling improved outcomes for atrophic acne scars more than microneedling alone, according to both quantitative and qualitative assessments.

This study found that combining fractional radiofrequency microneedling with 5% topical minoxidil improved hair count and thickness more than minoxidil alone in Chinese men with male pattern hair loss.

This study identified a novel recessive mutation in mice causing lethal congenital lamellar ichthyosis, with skin and hair follicle alterations similar to human congenital ichthyoses, linked to a specific genetic defect affecting Fatp4.

This study found that split-head paired design trials are as effective as whole-head parallel design trials in differentiating anti-dandruff shampoos through scalp flaking measurements, but are more efficient and cost-effective, requiring fewer participants to achieve similar results.

This study observed that using ice pack compression or a vibration anesthesia device reduced pain during inactivated PRP scalp injections in patients with alopecia, suggesting both as inexpensive and accessible pain-relief options.

This study identified a new FAK isoform, FAKΔe4, which is regulated by ECM stiffness and affects cell migration, invasion, and mechanosensing in human-derived data and engineered models.

In this case report, a three-generation family with Gorlin-Goltz syndrome showed a heterozygous PTCH1 splice-donor variant associated with the disease, and two affected relatives benefited from individualized, side-effect-guided dosing of the drug sonidegib, experiencing regression of basal cell carcinoma lesions.

In this 10-patient exploratory study, the researchers found that topical application of 4-aminopyridine 5% combined with microneedling did not improve hair density or quality in men with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting limited efficacy in this context despite promising results in animal wound models.

This registered trial will investigate whether preoperative botulinum toxin can improve hair transplantation outcomes by enhancing blood flow and reducing ischemia in the scalp.

In this guide, the authors describe a scalp incision technique that minimizes damage to hair follicles and results in barely noticeable scars in hair-bearing areas.

This study reports the first case of mandibuloacral dysplasia syndrome associated with MTX2 gene mutation in the Chinese population, expanding the known spectrum of MTX2 mutations.
