This study suggests that the AR/EDA2R locus may contribute to early-onset female pattern hair loss, but no association was found with the 20p11 locus.

This article updates Japanese guidelines for diagnosing and treating male and female-pattern hair loss, recommending specific drugs and therapies while advising against certain treatments for female-pattern hair loss.

This study reported that MRI-based ovarian morphology shows significant overlap between PCOS cases and controls, highlighting the need to consider clinical and biochemical data alongside imaging findings for PCOS diagnosis.

This study reported that polarized dermoscopy was better for visualizing vascular patterns, scaling, and reticular pigmentation, while nonpolarized mode better documented features like black dots and tapered hair in various hair and scalp conditions.

This pilot study suggests that using growth factors followed by microneedle therapy may benefit women with female pattern hair loss.

This study builds on previous findings by associating female pattern hair loss with gene polymorphisms related to oestrogen activity, suggesting oestrogen's role in the condition.

ICL is a condition with low CD4+ T cells like AIDS but not caused by HIV, and normal CD4+ T cell counts may vary between men and women.

This study suggests that the androgen receptor locus on the X chromosome may play a role in the pathogenesis of early-onset female pattern hair loss.

This study found that Caucasian female hair is denser than Asian female hair in the occipital region regardless of treatment but thinner in diameter in both the frontal and occipital regions.

This review discusses the physiology and potential hormonal mechanisms involved in female pattern hair loss, as well as the current hormonal and hormone-modifying treatments available, but reports no new research findings.

No link found between new male baldness genes and female hair loss.

This study observed that patients with alopecia areata often have a T-cell receptor repertoire in skin lesions that suggests a specific antigen-driven immune response may be important in the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that over- and ectopic-expression of FoxN1 in early life negatively affected the development of thymic epithelial cells, T and B cells, and skin epithelial cells.

This study found no improvement in male-pattern hair loss after six months of using laser hair-comb therapy in two men.

This study found that men with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher levels of certain urinary steroid metabolites, suggesting increased 5 alpha-reductase activity and possible mild hyperadrenal activity.

MC4R gene variants not linked to female hair loss.

Some men can have female pattern baldness without hormonal abnormalities or signs of feminization.

This study on feather pattern formation in chicken skin found that inhibiting gap junctional intercellular communication can lead to the emergence of new feather buds in specific spatial patterns, suggesting that GJIC may facilitate Turing-type periodic patterning by propagating inhibitory signals over long distances.

This study found differences in urinary androgen and estrogen concentrations between male pattern baldness patients treated with finasteride and healthy controls, suggesting potential biomarkers for post-finasteride syndrome.

This meta-analysis found that male pattern baldness is associated with an increased risk of aggressive prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that specific CYP19A1 gene SNPs were significantly associated with female pattern hair loss risk in a Chinese Han population.

This report describes two cases of stroke associated with finasteride use for male-pattern hair loss, suggesting a potential link to thrombosis due to increased estrone and estradiol levels.

This study found that B6.CD80CD86−/− mice developed autoimmune-like alopecia with nearly 100% incidence by 40 weeks, making them a promising model for studying human alopecia areata.

This study found that finasteride treatment of male rats led to changes in their male offspring's testicular gene expression, potentially affecting sperm function in response to odorant-like signals.

This study introduced and evaluated Ahmad's NPRT system for documenting hair loss, finding it helpful in assessing the specific state of male pattern baldness in 500 patients.

In this case study, the authors explored the management of ophiasis, a rare and challenging form of alopecia areata, in a 3-year-old boy using the Unani system of medicine, aiming to provide insights for treatment approaches.

This study, conducted among 50 women with female-pattern hair loss, observed that 89% had deficient or insufficient vitamin D levels and also showed low ferritin levels, suggesting these deficiencies may contribute to hair loss.

T cells and bacteria in the gut and skin help maintain health and protect against disease.

This study found that polyamine levels were higher in the vertex hair than in occipital hair among patients with pattern baldness, suggesting a relation to hair loss development in the scalp's vertex region.

In this study, the authors concluded that the TS-associated polyomavirus may disrupt Wnt/β-catenin signaling, likely contributing to abnormal hair follicle formation in trichodysplasia spinulosa.
