This report describes a case of a woman with ophiasis-pattern alopecia areata who experienced significant hair regrowth and maintained it for 6 months after treatment with dupilumab, though she eventually relapsed.

This study found that Erdr1 expression was significantly reduced in the skin of patients with hair loss disorders, particularly alopecia areata, suggesting it may serve as a novel biomarker.

This research reports that herb lotions for alopecia areata, particularly those containing salvia miltiorrhiza radix, were effective in promoting hair regrowth in 64.8% of severe cases, akin to DNCB and SADBE.

This study found that the presence of benzeneseleninic acid in commercial anhydride samples lowered the reaction rate during the oxidation of a finasteride intermediate compared to pure anhydride.

This study describes a follicular automaton model that simulates human hair cycles and may replicate hair pattern evolution seen in diffuse or androgenetic alopecia.

New oral treatment, finasteride, effectively and safely treats common hair loss.

This article reviews the role of enzymatic processes in drug and toxin metabolism, emphasizing their impact on solubility and elimination, without presenting new clinical findings.

This review discusses the basic principles of hair pathology and findings in common types of alopecia but reports no new research results.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding alopecia areata's disease mechanisms and highlights JAK molecules as promising therapeutic targets, but reports no new clinical results; controlled trials are needed.

This study found that in patients with androgenetic hair loss, taking 1 mg of finasteride daily significantly raised triglyceride levels and decreased HDL levels after 3 and 6 months.

The conclusion is that different types of hair loss in dogs and cats can be cosmetic or serious, and affected animals should not be bred.

This study reports ten cases of non-marginal traction alopecia in women with very long hair, which was improved with shorter hair cuts and topical minoxidil application.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This paper reviews the state of knowledge on injectable cryogels, highlighting their unique properties such as shape-memory and mechanical integrity, which allow for minimally invasive delivery via needles and potential applications in oncology and regenerative medicine.

Pharmacists play a crucial role in customizing treatments and ensuring medication safety.

In this case report, a 46-year-old woman initially diagnosed with 21-hydroxylase deficiency congenital adrenal hyperplasia was later identified as having 3β-HSD2 deficiency after further investigation, highlighting the need for awareness of rarer CAH forms to prevent delayed diagnosis and insufficient treatment.

This study observed distinct plasma miRNA profiles in alopecia areata, identifying several miRNAs downregulated in both mild and severe forms; machine learning models demonstrated strong predictive accuracy, and kinase inhibitors were suggested as promising therapeutic targets based on pathway analysis.

In this clinical study, the researchers found that a standardized wheat polar lipid complex, in both oil and powder form, significantly reduced hair shedding and improved hair growth in 99 women with acute telogen effluvium over 56 to 84 days.

Low-dose isotretinoin is effective for treating pediatric scarring alopecia.

In this case study, a diagnosis of HAIR-AN syndrome, a rare form of polycystic ovarian syndrome, was made in a 17-year-old female with hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and acanthosis nigricans, but genetic screening revealed no significant mutations linked to her symptoms.

In a tropical, high-burden region, this study found that tinea corporis and tinea cruris were the most common types of dermatophytosis, particularly affecting female adults, and that treatment commonly involved griseofulvin and ketoconazole cream, with Trichophyton mentagrophytes as the prevalent pathogen.

This study reviewed existing literature on Androgenetic Alopecia treatments, finding that minoxidil promotes hair growth but can cause side effects due to its traditional formulations. Novel delivery systems like film-forming sprays may reduce these side effects and enhance efficacy.

This study found that patients with SARS-CoV-2 associated telogen effluvium experienced hair loss sooner after infection compared to telogen effluvium from other causes, with distinct dermoscopic findings aiding diagnosis.

In this study, researchers identified a collagen fragment, sample-1707, expressed in E. coli, which forms nanofibers and promotes blood clotting, osteoblast differentiation, and skin cell regeneration, making it a promising biomaterial for skin care, with a large-scale production yield of 600 mg/L.

In this study, peptide-based nanoparticles were successfully used to deliver the CRISPR-Cas9 system into cancer cells, effectively targeting and editing KRAS mutations, suggesting promising therapeutic potential for cancer treatment.

This study found that videodermoscopy is a promising non-invasive tool for distinguishing between types of non-scarring alopecia on the scalp, highlighting its potential in dermatological practice.

This review concludes that preoperative hormonal stimulation with testosterone or DHT may help increase penile length and glans circumference, easing hypospadias surgery and potentially reducing postoperative complications.

This chapter reviews various in vitro and laboratory animal models for studying potential therapies for alopecia and reports no new results.

This review discusses various types of primary cicatricial alopecias, categorized by the predominant type of inflammatory cells involved, and reports no new clinical results.

The study found that CK15 expression, representing hair follicle stem cell activity, was reduced or absent in scarred primary cicatricial alopecia lesions, suggesting stem cell damage may contribute to the scarring process.
