The conclusion is that different types of hair loss in dogs and cats can be cosmetic or serious, and affected animals should not be bred.

This chapter reviews various dermatological drugs and treatments, highlighting adverse effects, with no new clinical findings reported.

Some drugs can cause serious side effects, like hypoglycemia from mix-ups, skin reactions, or depression, and while penicillamine may help rheumatoid arthritis more than auranofin, it has more severe side effects.

This study identified 11 genes associated with non-syndromic hereditary hypotrichosis in a Chinese cohort and proposed a preliminary framework for phenotype-driven candidate-gene prioritization to aid clinical evaluation.

This review discusses various factors influencing alopecia areata and explores newer therapeutic options like biologics and regenerative techniques, but it reports no new clinical trial results.

In this systematic review, dutasteride may be more effective than finasteride for hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia, but the comparative magnitude of this effect is highly uncertain.

GLP-1 therapies can cause hair loss, but hair often regrows after stopping or reducing the drug.

In this study, researchers optimized fast-dissolving tablets of nifedipine using a systematic approach, resulting in formulations that demonstrated rapid disintegration, enhanced dissolution profiles, and improved solubility, potentially improving oral delivery for patients requiring poorly soluble antihypertensive medication.

This review concludes that finasteride and dutasteride are the most evidence-supported oral treatments for androgenetic alopecia, with dutasteride offering slightly greater hair count improvements and both affected by genetic response modifiers.

This study reviews the effectiveness and safety of finasteride and dutasteride for treating androgenetic alopecia, highlighting that dutasteride reduces DHT more deeply than finasteride, with genetic factors influencing patient response and both drugs being evidence-supported options for men and women.

In this study, researchers suggest that hair follicle miniaturization in conditions like androgenetic alopecia may result from impaired conversion of quiescent stem cells to progenitor cells, influenced by the follicular niche, its collagen network, and various mechanical constraints.

This clinical trial found that using a 45-degree angled implanter with the bevel facing the skin in FUE hair transplantation significantly reduced insertion resistance, graft popping, and bleeding, while improving efficiency and graft alignment compared to conventional methods.

This abstract highlights that while treatments for alopecia areata, like corticosteroids and JAK inhibitors, exist, their effectiveness varies and relapses are common, prompting interest in supplementary therapies.

In this study, Dodatek A operationalizes the Functional Androgen Axis framework by defining three system-level indices and an efficiency metric to describe androgen function, incorporating key methodological improvements and acknowledging significant limitations for future empirical validation.

This research presents the Dodatek A model, elaborating on androgen function through new mathematical indices and methodological improvements, shifting focus from serum hormone concentrations to system interactions to better describe androgen activity comprehensively.

This study reviews the therapeutic applications and evidence around punch-based dermatologic techniques, highlighting their varying effectiveness and precision across different conditions, but emphasizes the need for further standardized research.

In this retrospective case series, therapeutic responses to immunomodulatory and incretin-based therapies for Dercum's disease showed considerable individual variation, suggesting these treatments might be exploratory options when surgery isn't feasible, though further controlled studies are needed for definitive conclusions.

This study systematically reviewed the use of topical testosterone products such as creams, gels, and patches, finding they effectively raise serum testosterone but pose significant systemic risks like acne and gynecomastia, necessitating careful medical oversight.

This review highlights that obsessive-compulsive disorder and body-focused repetitive behaviors are increasingly encountered in dermatology, often going undetected, and emphasizes the role of dermatologists in early identification and interdisciplinary treatment to address both physical and psychological aspects for improved outcomes.

This study reported that pentoxifylline-loaded liposomes, optimized using a statistical design method, achieved a maximum encapsulation efficiency of 84.23% and a controlled 72-hour drug release, potentially improving therapeutic delivery of the drug with limited bioavailability.

This study introduced mechanical setups to analyze the mechanical properties of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana, finding that axial stiffness primarily relates to tip compression and turgor pressure, confirmed by independent methods adapted from work on animal cells.

In this systematic review, researchers found that injectable therapies, including agents like dutasteride and multivitamin formulations, may offer cosmetic benefits for androgenetic alopecia; however, evidence is limited by small study sizes, varied methods, and short follow-up periods, necessitating standardized trials for routine use recommendations.

This study highlights emerging regenerative strategies, such as stem cell-derived therapies and machine learning tools, that may advance hair loss treatment beyond traditional methods by promoting follicle regeneration and offering personalized care.

This study identified a four-gene loop as a non-invasive biomarker that selectively activates in alopecia areata, providing a precise target for JAK inhibitor treatments.

This review found that circulating dihydrotestosterone (DHT) consistently distinguishes men with androgenetic alopecia from controls, suggesting a key role in the condition's biology and potential therapeutic targeting.

This study found that UVB exposure led to visible tanning and distinct DNA methylation changes in pigmentation genes in tan-capable skin but not in non-tan skin, highlighting GNAS as a potentially UVB-responsive gene.

This article reviews the causes and prevalence of telogen effluvium and notes successful cases treated with homoeopathic medicines, but it provides no new clinical results.

This study confirmed known adverse events and identified new ones related to ixekizumab, offering preliminary safety insights for its clinical use, but noted limitations such as potential underreporting and confounding factors in the spontaneous adverse event reporting systems.

In this case report and literature review, researchers identified a novel mutation in the CLDN1 gene linked to neonatal ichthyosis-sclerosing cholangitis syndrome and found that its phenotype varies widely, suggesting a multidisciplinary approach is crucial for management.

In this study, researchers developed innovative mechanical methods to measure the mechanical properties of Arabidopsis thaliana root hairs, concluding that axial stiffness is mainly due to tip compression and influenced by turgor pressure.
