This review discusses the clinical features of trichotillomania and the challenges in its diagnosis and treatment, reporting no new clinical findings while highlighting the need for specialized therapy and better therapeutic options.

This study found that after application of a testosterone cream containing 17α-methyltestosterone and testosterone propionate, these compounds could be detected in dried blood spots up to 97 hours post-application, potentially leading to sample contamination during fingertip puncture.

This study found that testosterone therapy improved physical performance and strength in older men with low testosterone over 36 months, whether administered alone or with finasteride.

This report presents a case where female pattern hair loss might be linked to tamoxifen use, with increased androgen receptor expression observed in the affected scalp area.

In this study, researchers reviewed current treatments for trichotillomania and found that psychotherapy, particularly cognitive-behavioral therapy like habit reversal training, is most effective, with some medications helping to alleviate symptoms, though further study is needed on their use.

This study found that thyroxine modulates peripheral molecular clock gene expression in human hair follicles, which may have implications for treating clock-related diseases in patients with thyroid dysfunction.

This study evaluated a novel, user-friendly approach for detecting hairfall trends over time using machine learning models. The Temporal Fusion Transformer model demonstrated high accuracy in identifying anomalies in hair shedding patterns, potentially aiding in the early detection of health risks related to hormonal fluctuations.

This study suggests that clinically apparent fragile hair in children is rarely linked to trichothiodystrophy, and the tiger-tail pattern is not wholly specific to this diagnosis.

This case report describes a 3-year-old boy diagnosed with temporal triangular alopecia, emphasizing the importance of clinical and dermoscopic examination for correct diagnosis due to the condition's rarity and risk of misdiagnosis.

In this study, authors reported that reflectance confocal microscopy may aid in diagnosing trichofolliculoma by identifying specific features correlated with histopathology that can be difficult to discern with other methods.

This study identified the Itpr3 gene as responsible for the tufted hair loss phenotype in the BTBR mouse strain.

This study explored the secretion and cellular localization of different forms of follistatin and FST-like-3, revealing variable secretion kinetics and possible intracellular roles, particularly for nuclear FSTL3.

This review discusses fibrosing frontal alopecia, including its causes, mechanisms, and treatments, and emphasizes the need for further research to improve understanding and treatments; it reports no new clinical results.

This study presents a novel in vitro assay using human folliculoid microspheres to research hair growth, which may facilitate preclinical testing of hair growth-modulatory agents.

This case report describes a unique presentation of frontal fibrosing alopecia characterized by a hair loss pattern that resembles the Greek letter upsilon, supported by trichoscopic and histological findings.

This study used a probabilistic Boolean network model to explore hair follicle cell fate regulation and predicted that varying TGF-β levels, in coordination with BMP and TNF, can influence either apoptosis or cell proliferation during different follicle growth stages.

In this study, researchers found that the ability of hamster polyomavirus to cause lymphoid tumors in Syrian hamsters may be linked to its association with the tyrosine kinase p59fyn.

Testosterone boosts fluid and electrolyte secretion in seminal vesicles, aiding sperm function.

In this study using mice with specific gene knockouts, both farnesyltransferase and geranylgeranyltransferase-I were found to be essential for the proliferation and survival of skin keratinocytes.

In this clinical trial, the topical agent AP-FHG0604T significantly increased hair counts and growth rates in women with female pattern hair loss compared to a placebo, though some reported mild local irritation.

This observational study reports that a TRASER device using specific wavelengths for vascular and follicular targets showed both clinical responses and histological changes, suggesting its potential as an effective vascular and hair removal tool.

This case study reports successful treatment of an 11-year-old girl's trichotillomania with cognitive behavioral therapy, mild topical treatments, and supportive parental involvement, without psychopharmacologic intervention.

This article reviews the development of follicular unit transplantation for hair replacement, highlighting its ability to provide natural-looking results with minimal recovery time, but results depend heavily on the skill and planning of the practitioner.

This report suggests a possible association between temporal triangular alopecia and sebaceous nevus, and identifies a pinkish background as a new trichoscopic finding for TTA.

Tamsulosin works faster, but both drugs have similar effects after 6 months.

Hair transplantation effectively treated a bald patch in an 18-year-old woman with Temporal Triangular Alopecia.

This article discusses the preparation of tritium-labeled testosterone metabolites and reports no new experimental findings.

This study in mice suggests that defects in hair follicles with mesenchymal TSC2 disruption may result from an impaired TGFβ1 response, indicating a potential novel treatment approach for tuberous sclerosis complex.

This study found that trichoscopy can effectively differentiate female pattern hair loss from chronic telogen effluvium based on specific features like hair shaft diameter variability and density differences, aiding in targeted treatment planning.

Dermoscopy helps diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying specific scalp features.
