This chapter reviews factors affecting hair growth and shedding and describes various conditions that can lead to hair growth diseases, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that asynchronous differentiation in human anagen hair follicles involves specific localization of c-Myc and interrelated genes Max and Bin1 along the inner root sheath.

This study observed that mice with a Cx43 mutation exhibited slower and asynchronous hair regrowth with severe cuticle weathering, mimicking aspects of hair phenotype in some ODDD patients.

This study describes a 4-year-old boy who exhibits a rare, synchronized pattern of hair growth and shedding, unlike the typical asynchronous pattern seen in humans.

In this case report, a 66-year-old postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism and alopecia underwent bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, which revealed rare synchronous ovarian tumors causing virilization, highlighting the importance of surgical exploration despite normal imaging.

In this study, the glyceride content in whole mouse skin was nearly twice as high during anagen compared to telogen, suggesting potential energy utilization for hair proliferation or unrelated accumulation.

In this study, telogen effluvium is characterized as a common condition in women involving sudden hair shedding due to hair follicles prematurely entering the telogen phase, with potential triggers including fever, childbirth, and stress.

This article discusses telogen effluvium in women, its causes, and typical diagnostic methods, but reports no new research findings on clinical outcomes or treatments.

This study found that in mink, the pituitary gland is essential for normal seasonal pelage cycles, and manipulating hormone levels can affect hair growth and type.

This review explains various types of hair loss and unwanted hair growth in women, emphasizing the complexity of treatment due to their diverse causes, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, mouse models with EGFR deficiency showed that disrupted hair follicle cycling leads to increased mast cell numbers and inflammation, suggesting EGFR's role in managing hair cycle transitions and preventing folliculitis.

Macrophages help break down collagen around hair follicles during hair growth.

This review examines the design strategies for creating conductive hydrogels with adjustable properties for various biomedical applications, highlighting their potential for supporting cell growth, wound healing, drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and biosensing.

This book compiles papers from a 1988 symposium on human hair follicle research, highlighting collaboration between dermatology and industry, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report presents a rare instance of recurrent ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome due to PBMAH, coinciding with the development of a pheochromocytoma, highlighting the need for thorough reevaluation in similar recurring cases.

Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.

This study found that in mice, EGFR activation suppresses mitotic regulators like Rcc2 and Stathmin 1, facilitating the transition to catagen in hair follicles.

This report describes the successful treatment of multiple extrapulmonary disorders from Rhodococcus equi pneumonia in a foal, emphasizing the importance of thorough diagnosis and targeted treatment.

This study reported that 19.8% of patients experienced telogen hair loss after COVID-19, with most cases occurring 3 to 6 months post-recovery, and noted a rapid progression in patients with androgenetic alopecia, as well as cases of alopecia areata and cicatricial alopecia linked to COVID-19.

Many new moms lose hair after childbirth due to hormonal changes, but it usually grows back within a year.

This study reviewed tele-consultations in a tertiary referral sexual medicine practice and found that some patients utilize photo-augmented telemedicine for inquiries about diagnoses, prescribed treatments, or results.

This study found that the implementation of the SAVe teledermatology model increased access to dermatologic care during COVID-19, reducing referral wait times significantly compared to in-person visits.

In this study, telemedicine using trichoscopy for alopecia areata patients showed high concordance with outpatient trichoscopy in image quality and similar levels of patient satisfaction, indicating its effectiveness for follow-up and continuity of care.

This study describes teledermatology as a cost-effective and convenient alternative to in-person dermatology consultations during the COVID-19 pandemic, with diagnostic accuracy ranging from 54% to 88%.

This study found that teledermatology significantly reduced wait times and increased appointment availability for uninsured Latino immigrants, effectively triaging 70% of cases without in-person visits.

This study emphasizes the need for a formal evaluation of direct-to-consumer telemedicine services in Australia to ensure safety, privacy, and ethical standards while maintaining high-quality healthcare.

This study found that telemedicine effectively managed common dermatological conditions like tinea, acne, hair disorders, and dermatitis during the COVID-19 pandemic, with a significant portion of patients not needing face-to-face consultations.

Teledermatology reduces unnecessary in-person visits and improves care.

Medical questionnaires could modernize healthcare by improving access and efficiency but need guidelines to ensure quality care.

This article discusses the rise of direct-to-consumer teledermatology platforms, warning that they might cause overdiagnosis, overtreatment, and fragmented healthcare, and emphasizes the need for patient counseling about these risks and benefits.
