In this placebo-controlled study, finasteride significantly improved symptoms, reduced prostate size, and increased urine flow rate in patients with moderately symptomatic BPH over two years.

This review discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting its frequent misdiagnosis and highlighting the need for larger studies to better understand its epidemiology, causes, and treatment options; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This article reports a case of frontal fibrosing alopecia in its early inflammatory stage that responded positively to intralesional steroid treatment.

This study from North-East India analyzed 21 cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting a high prevalence in post-menopausal women and distinct histological features such as perifollicular lymphocytic infiltrate and hydropic degeneration.

This study found that mechanical stress activates a WISP-1/Hedgehog signaling axis that contributes to ligamentum flavum hypertrophy and fibrosis, identifying Hedgehog signaling as a potential therapeutic target.

This study adds evidence suggesting a genetic component to frontal fibrosing alopecia, with daughters experiencing an earlier onset than their mothers, although the clinical pattern remains similar to non-familial cases.

This case report highlights that frontal fibrosing alopecia can occur in black patients and may resemble androgenetic alopecia, underscoring the importance of considering FFA when diagnosing frontotemporal alopecia in this population.

This study found no baseline factors that predicted flibanserin efficacy for HSDD, though low testosterone or use of hormonal contraceptives were associated with reduced efficacy.

This study reports a case of frontal fibrosing alopecia associated with hepatitis C treatment involving interferon and ribavirin.

This review discusses the enigmatic nature of frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no clinical results; the authors stress the need for further research.

In this study, FGF5-knockout Dorper sheep generated using CRISPR/Cas9 showed increased fine-wool and active hair-follicle density, suggesting potential therapeutic applications for androgen alopecia.

This article presents a case study of a 50-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia and discusses the role of dermoscopy in differentiating it from other types of alopecia, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that combining plasma rich in growth factors with conventional treatment significantly improved hair regrowth and reduced symptoms in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia compared to conventional treatment alone.

This study found that applying a formulation derived from Bacopa procumbens significantly promoted hair growth, pigmentation, and follicular cycle acceleration in mice compared to minoxidil, potentially offering a new therapeutic approach for hair health.

This abstract discusses the FitSpresso weight loss supplement's potential benefits and mechanisms but provides no clinical research findings; it reports on its ingredients and consumer ratings instead.

In this study, specific SNPs in the FST gene were significantly associated with various wool quality traits in Chinese Merino sheep, suggesting potential markers for breeding programs.

This study retrospectively analyzed 14 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting that 57% experienced total eyebrow loss, and all received various steroid treatments, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis to potentially delay disease progression.

This study involved 69 hair experts using a Delphi process to achieve consensus on treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, finding strong agreement on disease monitoring but less on physical and systemic therapies, indicating the need for more research.

In this study, researchers developed WS Biotin, a new water-soluble form of biotin, and found that it significantly improves water solubility compared to free biotin and enhances hair-related keratin expression, gene activity for hair growth in vitro, while also reducing melanin content in skin cells.

This case report highlights that frontal fibrosing alopecia may be underrecognized in young women and notes that no single treatment regimen has been proven consistently effective for this condition.

This study found that repeatedly collecting hair follicles from individuals with fragile X syndrome is feasible for measuring FMR1 and FMRP levels in both home and office settings.

This study suggests that NBCCS and BFHS may be the same genetic condition, which could help improve identification and management of misdiagnosed cases with specific surveillance strategies.

This study found that dermoscopy of the axilla in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia revealed significantly higher odds of brownish peripillary halos, suggesting a diagnostic clue for the condition in this region.

This study found that females with frontal fibrosing alopecia had more preauricular lines than age-matched controls, indicating a potential new clinical marker for the condition.

This study reports that most cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia did not show significant improvement with available treatments, and effective management remains unproven.

This review discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia in males and reports no new clinical results, indicating a broader demographic affected by this inflammatory disorder beyond postmenopausal women.
