In this study, researchers examined thyroid function and autoantibody levels in patients with alopecia areata and vitiligo, finding similar rates of thyroid dysfunction and autoantibody presence in both groups, with no significant differences based on ethnicity or gender.

This study recommends limiting routine thyroid function screening to children with alopecia areata who have medical histories of Down syndrome, atopy, or family histories of thyroid disease.

This study revealed that manual thyroid examinations in alopecia patients may uncover thyroid abnormalities undetectable by blood tests alone, but further research is needed to assess their clinical importance.

This article reviews the influence of thyroid hormone on skin and hair health, emphasizing its role in epidermal homeostasis and hair growth, but reports no new experimental results.

This case report illustrates that high-dose biotin supplementation can cause false thyroid function test abnormalities in vitro, emphasizing the need to assess biotin intake before testing.

This study found that topical clobetasol propionate cream provided a modest improvement in hair regrowth for alopecia areata patients, though those with atopy had higher relapse rates after treatment completion.

This study found that inadequate ferritin levels, rather than haemoglobin levels, indicated iron deficiency in women with telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, and female pattern hair loss.

This study reported that a 12-year-old neutered male Siberian husky dog showed resolution of alopecia, pyoderma, and diarrhoea after thyroidectomy and thyroid supplementation for a functional thyroid carcinoma.

This study describes cases of diffuse alopecia and thyroid alterations in sheep, linking selenium and zinc deficiencies to decreased serum T3 and T4 concentrations and related skin conditions.

This article discusses the clinical features, differential diagnosis, and natural history of loose anagen syndrome in children but reports no new clinical findings.

This article emphasizes the importance of thyroid function monitoring and management in women, particularly for those planning pregnancy or postpartum, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the challenges in managing thyroid function disorders, particularly the interpretation of normal and mild abnormalities in thyroid tests, and highlights the importance of primary care providers understanding these issues.

This study found that the hairless gene in mice has a more extensive role in development than previously thought, as indicated by its expression in various tissues and associated abnormalities in hr/hr mutants.

This study observed that dogs with sarcoptic mange exhibited symptoms like intense itching and restlessness, along with specific haematological and biochemical abnormalities compared to healthy dogs.

Thyroid disease can cause hair loss and treating thyroid problems might help with hair disorders.

This review discusses the diagnosis of canine hypothyroidism, focusing on its clinical signs, diagnostic markers, and distinctive skin biopsy findings, but reports no new research results.

Older men's scalp damage increases with age and sun exposure, a baby girl in the Philippines has Schimmelpenning syndrome, and thyroid screening is advised for children with hair loss and certain risk factors.

This case report details a diagnosis of adult-onset isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in a 23-year-old African American female, highlighting its genetic basis and treatment approach.

Children with alopecia areata should only get thyroid screening if they have Down syndrome, a family history of thyroid disease, atopy, or signs of thyroid problems.

In this case study, a 26-year-old woman with hypothyroidism experienced significant improvements in energy, emotional balance, and physical discomfort after individualized homeopathic treatment with Kalium carbonium, demonstrating the potential benefits of a holistic approach to care.

This study observed that pediatric patients with diffuse, non-scarring alopecia had significantly lower levels of zinc and folate compared to matched healthy controls, suggesting a possible link between these deficiencies and hair loss in children.

This study observed that low serum ferritin and vitamin D levels may contribute to diffuse hair loss in women.

This review explores the complex relationship between thyroid hormones and skin, discussing potential mechanisms and known interactions but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research.

This study found that premature hair graying is strongly associated with a family history, Vitamin B12 deficiency, and hypothyroidism, with onset as early as 5 years in patients in Gurugram, India.

This study indicates that higher thyroid-stimulating hormone levels may be linked to post-COVID-19 hair loss in women, while ferritin levels showed no significant correlation.

This study found that women with epilepsy on carbamazepine and sodium valproate monotherapy experienced more significant weight gain but showed no difference in PCOS incidence compared to phenytoin users; elevated TSH levels were more common among those on sodium valproate.

This narrative review found a strong association between alopecia areata and autoimmune thyroid diseases, suggesting routine thyroid function and autoantibody screening could be beneficial for certain patients with extensive, recurrent, or early-onset alopecia areata.

This review discusses the roles of the hairless (HR) protein as a corepressor, particularly its impact on RORα-mediated transcriptional repression, and reports no new experimental findings.

This study identified the Hairless (Hr) gene-encoded protein as a corepressor that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin and hair by regulating epithelial stem cell differentiation and gene expression via chromatin remodeling, which may impact both development and disease.

This narrative review highlights the crucial role of micronutrients and gut microbiota in thyroid function and suggests that nutritional imbalances may contribute to thyroid dysfunction or diseases.
