This article discusses the potential link between genetic variants associated with androgen receptor activity and racial variations in COVID-19 mortality, suggesting a possible role for anti-androgens in treatment, but reports no new clinical findings.

This letter discusses the potential connection between androgenetic alopecia and COVID-19, suggesting a possible new therapy, but it reports no new results.

This review presents standardized methods for assessing and tracking hair loss in alopecia areata but reports no clinical results, with the authors noting time limitations in clinical practice.

This study analyzed 19 clinical trials and found that dermatologic adverse events, such as rash, xerosis, and mucositis, frequently occur in pediatric patients receiving targeted anticancer therapies.

This review outlines the evolution of hair follicle engineering and its foundational discoveries, but reports no new experimental results.

This paper presents consensus guidelines for standardized diagnostic criteria and assessment methods for frontal fibrosing alopecia to improve clinical research and data collection globally.

This study suggests that the optimum X-ray energy for microplanar beam radiation therapy to treat deep-seated tumors may range from 100 to 300 keV, based on therapeutic gain and surface dose considerations.

This review discusses the history and challenges of hair follicle regeneration using follicular fragments and dissociated cells, without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that early male hair loss treatment with Puregraft fat and low-dose adipose-derived regenerative cells increased terminal hair counts at 24 weeks compared to a saline control, indicating promise for androgenetic alopecia treatment.

This study found that 5% minoxidil topical foam used once daily for 24 weeks was well tolerated and significantly improved hair regrowth and scalp coverage in women with female pattern hair loss compared to vehicle foam.

This study identified that blocking the PTGDR2 receptor in human hair follicles in vitro and in mice reversed the hair growth inhibition caused by PGD2, suggesting a potential approach for treating alopecia.

This article introduces the authors and acknowledges a disclosed conflict of interest without reporting any new clinical findings.

This review discusses diffuse unpatterned alopecia (DUPA) as an understudied variant of androgenetic alopecia, summarizing its presentation and management while calling for further research to better understand its distinct characteristics.

In this pilot study, preliminary data suggest that Xtressé™, a gummy-based supplement, may increase hair count and hair mass, particularly in women experiencing female pattern hair loss or early-stage scarring alopecia, with less pronounced effects observed in advanced scarring conditions.

This review highlights the psychosocial impact of alopecia and discusses the limited guidelines for hair transplantation, focusing on patient candidacy, pretransplant optimization, and management of intraoperative and postoperative challenges.

This study found that in mice, including middle-aged and aged specimens, creating a wound without dermal defects and using adhesive materials to separate the epidermis from the dermis induced new hair follicle formation, suggesting potential applications for treating hair loss.

In this 2-year prospective study, researchers observed that weight loss through bariatric surgery in patients with morbid obesity led to improvements in various skin conditions, although it also resulted in hair loss (telogen effluvium) for over half of the participants.

This document discusses the advocacy for hair restoration surgeries to be performed by licensed surgeons, without reporting any new clinical findings.

This article discusses a segment from "The Dr. Oz Show" on hair restoration scams and reports no new clinical results.

Future techniques will greatly improve hair restoration.

This study found that SCUBE3 protein is upregulated in various cancers, promoting tumor growth and poor outcomes, while suppressing growth in renal cell carcinoma, and may serve as a diagnostic marker and potential therapeutic target for several diseases due to its secreted nature.

This case report observed that a patient experienced worsening alopecia and scarring after medical ozone therapy, with subsequent improvement following surgical intervention and systemic hyperbaric oxygenation.

In this retrospective study of 123 pediatric alopecia areata patients, hair loss episodes were most frequent in winter and showed significant correlations with air pressure and hours of sunlight, especially in non-atopic individuals, suggesting a role for climate factors in seasonal hair loss patterns.

This study found that in women with PCOS, suppressive therapy using spironolactone plus oral contraceptives improved hirsutism more effectively than either treatment alone, with initial scores predicting success.

This article reviews the role of skin appendages in wound healing and appendage regeneration, discussing cellular and molecular mechanisms but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that topical pimecrolimus is as effective as clobetasol propionate for treating alopecia areata, with better tolerability in terms of side effects.

In this study, researchers observed that in nude mice, exogenous stimulations lengthened the hair-existing phase and shortened the no-hair phase, with minoxidil influencing male and female mice differently.

This source reports that thymosin beta 4 accelerated dermal wound repair in phase 2 clinical trials for pressure ulcers, stasis ulcers, and epidermolysis bullosa wounds and was well tolerated.

This study found that dengue virus infection caused inflammation and cell death in human hair-follicle dermal papilla cells, which may contribute to increased hair shedding observed during the epidemic in Taiwan.

This study found that videodermoscopy enhances diagnostic accuracy for scalp and hair disorders beyond simple clinical inspection and reveals novel disease features that could improve clinical understanding.
