This study found no significant association between serum vitamin D levels and Alopecia areata when compared to healthy controls.

This study found that patients with vitiligo had significantly lower serum vitamin D levels compared to healthy controls.

In this case report, a 13-year-old girl with pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus experienced rare ischemic vaso-occlusive retinopathy as a first symptom, and early interventions improved her visual acuity and fever but did not fully restore vision.

This study found that serum IL-17A levels were significantly higher in patients with alopecia areata compared to healthy controls and correlated with disease severity and activity.

This study found that redhaired individuals consistently had higher calcidiol levels compared to non-redhaired subjects, suggesting a physiological adaptation for vitamin D synthesis in low UV-B conditions.

This study found that while serum prolactin levels were higher in women with hirsutism, the relationship between prolactin levels and hirsutism severity was not statistically significant.

This study observed that Egyptian patients with discoid lupus erythematosus have significantly lower serum vitamin D3 and antioxidant levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting potential benefits of vitamin D3 and antioxidant supplementation.

Hair loss is a common but often unreported side effect of cancer treatments, especially for breast and prostate cancers.

In this study, researchers explored the effects of various medications on eye health, noting that systemic and local ophthalmic drugs can lead to both widespread and specific ocular side effects, with serious adverse events most associated with neurotropic, immunotropic, and antitumor medications.

In this study, a 5-year-old Angus bull experienced systemic granulomatous disease and vasculitis potentially associated with grazing on hairy vetch, but other bulls in the same pasture showed no symptoms, suggesting variability in disease manifestation from similar exposures.

This study found that PRP with high estrogen levels increased hair density more effectively and earlier than autologous PRP in male patients with androgenic alopecia.

People with hair loss have low zinc levels; zinc supplements and laser therapy may help.

This study observed that smokers and alcohol consumers with androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower serum levels of antioxidant vitamins, and these habits may trigger earlier onset of alopecia in susceptible individuals.
