This review discusses the management of hair loss in midlife women, focusing on female pattern hair loss, hair shaft alterations from hair care, and telogen effluvium, and reports no new research findings.

This study used a network meta-analysis to compare alopecia areata treatments, finding that intralesional corticosteroids are most effective for mild cases, while diphenylcyclopropenone ranks highest for moderate to severe cases; further research on oral tofacitinib is needed.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma may influence the proliferation of human hair dermal papilla cells by affecting gene expression related to the cell cycle.

In this study, trichoscopic features aiding differential diagnosis of alopecia in Korean patients were found to be similar to those in Caucasians, but pigment pattern frequencies differed due to racial characteristics.

This study observed that pigmented casts are present in various alopecia types but are not specific to any single diagnosis, with distinct morphological features noted in trichotillomania.

This study suggests platelet-rich plasma may be more effective than other non-surgical treatments for male androgenetic alopecia, while low-level laser therapy ranks highest for women; however, the evidence quality was low.

This article reviews risk factors and warning signs of elder abuse in different settings, emphasizing the importance of dermatologists in correctly identifying potential abuse injuries, but presents no new clinical findings.

This source summarizes discussions by an advisory board of twelve experts on hair loss, focusing on heredity, aging, and environmental impacts, and emphasizing strategies that may slow alopecia.

This review discusses the classification and diagnosis of primary scalp alopecia, focusing on scarring and non-scarring types, and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes simplified diagnostic pathways and tissue processing techniques.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing HGF/SF are more susceptible to UVA-induced melanoma, with melanin in the papillary dermis interacting with UVA to induce melanoma.

This article discusses the unique aspects of hair transplantation for achieving natural and dense coverage, but it provides no new clinical results.

This review discusses the histologic features of nonscarring alopecia and highlights the importance of clinical-pathological correlation for accurate diagnosis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that among MtF transgender individuals, those with early-onset gender dysphoria exhibited differences in age at surgery, sexual orientation, and sexual activity compared to those with later-onset dysphoria.

This study identified proteins that are differentially expressed in balding versus non-balding dermal papilla cells, potentially aiding the understanding and treatment of androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses the impact of various external factors like cosmetics, traction, and radiation on hair health and color, but reports no new findings.

This study proposed the existence of a membrane-like structure between the cuticle and cortex in human hair, which may provide strong protection against external stimuli.

This study reported that using 2D solid-state NMR techniques on extensively labeled mouse fur improves resolution in detecting chemical shifts and secondary structure features, potentially aiding the analysis of the effects of commercial or therapeutic treatments on specific amino acids.

Finasteride's polymorphic form affects capsule quality and drug effect, requiring strict control.

This study found that maternal melatonin supplementation improved fur quality in Rex rabbit offspring by increasing hair follicle density and altering melatonin receptor gene expression in several organs.

This study isolated a bioactive peptide from Trapa japonica fruit and found that it may protect human dermal papilla cells from DHT-induced stress, suggesting potential for biomedical applications.

This study found that coconut oil impedes hair hydration more effectively than soybean oil by penetrating deeper, and suggested a new model for intermediate filament assembly in hair.

This study observed that acanthosis nigricans is highly prevalent in Latin American youths, especially at the knuckles, and may indicate early insulin resistance even in those with a normal BMI.

This study found that using henna dye positively affected hair cuticula pattern and diameters compared to undyed hair, though the degree of change may vary based on hair phenotype and condition prior to treatment.

This study found an association between dispensed finasteride and an increased risk of male breast cancer, though uncertainties around confounding factors and potential biases suggest these results should be interpreted with caution.

This study developed a detailed classification system for functional androgenization in females that may enhance diagnosis and personalized treatment by identifying individual dysfunctions.

This article discusses the minimal research on hair growth physiology and highlights Dr. Masumi Inaba's contributions to understanding androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that chemical hair straightening significantly reduced hair curl and improved smoothness and shine, but did not significantly affect transverse fissures or split ends, indicating potential benefits with some side effects.

This guide provides a comprehensive approach to diagnosing periocular hair disorders, which can range from benign conditions to those posing serious health risks.

This study found that using XGBoost with clinical and ultrasound features may provide a highly accurate, non-invasive method for diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome, although further validation is needed to ensure robustness.

In this study, re-activating SOX9 in adult epidermal stem cells led to a fate switch towards hair follicle stem cell identity, with altered chromatin dynamics and oncogenic activation, contributing insights into developmental processes and cancer pathways.
