In this study, a photographic scale and questionnaire revealed that extensive central scalp hair loss was observed in 5.6% of African American women, with an association to a history of tinea capitis.

This review discusses the role of lamins in development, tissue maintenance, and stress response, and does not report new experimental findings.

This review discusses the psychological impact of alopecia on women and reports no new clinical findings, highlighting the effect on self-esteem and quality of life.

This review discusses the role of estrogens in hair follicle cycling and the skin, highlighting the need for more research on estrogen signaling pathways and their interactions with other factors in hair biology.

This review discusses pharmacologic treatment options for muscle-related pain conditions and notes that there is strong evidence for the efficacy of tricyclic antidepressants and muscle relaxants in specific myofascial pain syndromes, but not universally.

This article reviews skin signs in patients with anorexia nervosa and their potential role in early diagnosis but reports no clinical results; it emphasizes the importance of dermatologists in recognizing these signs.

This article reviews the classification, diagnosis, and management of hair disorders, emphasizing the role of trichoscopy and early diagnosis for effective treatment but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that upper wound fibroblasts are crucial for hair follicle regeneration during wound healing and suggests that these cells, along with papillary fibroblasts, migrate within the wound.

This study demonstrates the use of the CRISPR-Cas9 system to successfully edit the EDAR gene in Cashmere goats, resulting in goats with distinct hair follicle characteristics.

In this study, researchers reported that oral isotretinoin effectively treated facial papules in frontal fibrosing alopecia, with histopathologic findings suggesting the involvement of elastic fibers and sebaceous glands in papule formation beyond perifollicular inflammation.

This article reviews the causal mechanisms of hair follicle disorders, focusing on inflammation, genetics, environment, and hormones, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that melanoma on the posterior scalp is associated with worse survival compared to other body sites, while sun-exposed areas showed better survival outcomes.

This article reviews the association between hepatitis C virus and systemic disorders like mixed cryoglobulinemia, highlighting potential autoimmune side effects from interferon-a2b treatments, and reports no new clinical results.

In this review, the authors discuss how understanding and co-regulating multiple signaling pathways could lead to effective regeneration of functional hair cells, highlighting current achievements and future approaches such as small molecule drugs and gene therapy for treating sensorineural hearing loss.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding the pathogenesis of autoimmune alopecia areata and reports no new clinical results; it highlights potential for developing more effective treatments.

This study found that mice lacking the type 3 IP(3) receptor in their hair follicles experienced repetitive hair loss and regrowth, indicating disrupted hair-cycle regulation potentially linked to specific signaling pathways.

The authors concluded that Hispanic/Latino ethnicity, facial papules, and premenopausal status in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia may indicate a susceptibility to more severe disease, potentially necessitating early treatment.

This study found that neonatal finasteride treatment in male rats altered hippocampal GABAA receptor subunit expression and led to increased anxiety-like behavior in response to progesterone in adulthood.

This review discusses the development of targeted therapies for basal cell carcinoma that interfere with Hedgehog signaling and reports no new research findings.

This review evaluated the evidence on skin disorders linked to levodopa treatment for Parkinson's disease, suggesting a possible association with melanoma, though evidence remains inconclusive and further studies are needed.

This review evaluates neck rejuvenation techniques, including cervical rhytidectomy, and discusses potential surgical complications, without presenting new clinical findings.

Reduced androgens linked to kinky hair disorder and hair loss; 5a-reductase inhibitors may help.

This review discusses the management options for recurrent ischemic priapism, noting that ketoconazole, finasteride, and other hormonal therapies may be effective but can have significant side effects; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found no correlation between the extent of frontal fibrosing alopecia and quality of life, but observed a strong association with thyroid disease in affected women.

This review details common symptoms of rheumatic diseases and how to differentiate them from other conditions based on patient history and physical examination.

This study found that trichoscopy is essential for evaluating the severity of alopecia areata and predicting treatment responses, contributing to more personalized patient management.

This commentary reviews potential dietary and mineral influences on androgenetic alopecia and suggests considering a diet low in cholesterol and glycaemic index with improved glucose control and magnesium fortification, without new clinical results.

This study explored peripheral blood immune dysregulation in alopecia areata through single-cell analyses, identifying systemic changes linked to disease severity and key signaling roles for monocytes, NK cells, and memory T cells, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

This report highlights a case of adrenoleukodystrophy, a rare disease, diagnosed in a young boy with neuropsychiatric symptoms and Addison's disease, stressing the importance of early diagnosis and genetic counseling.
