This chapter reviews the development of skin-specific outcome instruments for autoimmune diseases like cutaneous lupus erythematosus and dermatomyositis, highlighting a need for a broader community-involved process across other diseases but reports no new results.

Eating a balanced diet with the right vitamins and minerals is important for healthy hair, but too many supplements can be harmful.

This review of interventions for alopecia areata found no significant treatment benefits for hair growth compared to placebo, indicating a need for larger, well-conducted studies.

This study found that ethinylestradiol and high-dose cyproterone acetate significantly reduced hirsutism scores and were effective for treating acne and alopecia in women with hyperandrogenism.

This study suggests that a 1,550-nm fractional erbium-glass laser may stimulate hair growth in both an alopecia mouse model and human subjects with male pattern hair loss, though further research is needed to determine its clinical applications.

This study found that patients with GERD and UCTD have significantly more frequent phenotypic and visceral markers than those with GERD alone, which should inform early diagnostic and treatment strategies.

This study reported that in embryo transfer cycles for women with nonclassic 21-hydroxylase deficiency, dexamethasone use was associated with improved pregnancy rates, and maintaining a BMI below 23.36 kg/m² increased pregnancy probabilities.

This study found that multiple treatments combining NIR laser phototherapy with ICG significantly reduced inflammation and improved skin condition in acne without side effects.

This study found that the Polish version of the AA-QLI questionnaire is a reliable and internally consistent tool for assessing health-related quality of life in Polish-speaking patients with alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers found that increased androgen levels, such as testosterone, and insulin resistance are strongly associated with more severe acne in adult women, along with a higher incidence of menstrual irregularities and PCOS characteristics.

This study found significant but inconsistent differences in online ratings for hair restoration surgeons based on their surgical and nonsurgical residency backgrounds, highlighting key factors influencing patient satisfaction.

Eating a lot of soy might lower the chance of early hair loss in men likely to get it.

This study reported that high cholesterol levels were linked to increased prostate cancer risk, while selenium supplementation affected gene expression, suggesting nutritional and clinical factors might influence prostate cancer risk and biology.

This study found that carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis of cattle hair reflects dietary and farm system differences, offering insights into cattle nutritional ecology and agroecosystem characteristics.

This study systematically reviewed meta-analyses and Mendelian randomization studies to identify factors influencing prostate cancer risk, finding suggestive associations for physical activity, height, and smoking but no robust, convincing overlapping evidence across tested factors.

This review discusses the potential of repeated low-level red-light therapy to inhibit myopia progression through metabolic effects, highlighting its molecular and cellular impact, but reports no new clinical results.
