This study found that the clinical severity of hidradenitis suppurativa, evaluated through Hurley staging, VAS, PGA, and SAHS, significantly affects patients' work absenteeism and presenteeism, with presenteeism being more prevalent.

This project by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery reviews best practices in hair restoration surgery and reports no new research findings.

In this double-blind, randomized controlled study, researchers found that Wen by Chaz Dean Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner was similarly tolerated compared to three other hair cleansing conditioners and was significantly better tolerated than salicylic acid shampoo or baby shampoo in terms of skin reactions.

This study found that stem cells from the human umbilical cord's Wharton's jelly may significantly enhance healing in excisional and diabetic wounds compared to controls.

Reduced AhR signaling in HS tunnels leads to persistent inflammation and microbial imbalance.

This non-randomized trial observed that Wiesbaden 30CH was more effective than supportive haircare for telogen effluvium, with 53.3% showing moderate improvement compared to 20% for haircare, although a notable portion in both groups saw no improvement.

This study assessed hair whorl characteristics in domestic dogs and found that simple whorls predominate, with tufted whorls more common in specific regions like elbows and chests, influenced by factors such as coat traits and source.

Wnt and SHH signals together influence hair follicle cell development, offering insights for hair loss treatment.

This study characterized human Wharton's Jelly Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hWJ-MSCs) isolated from umbilical cords using explant and enzymatic methods, finding both methods yielded high-purity cells capable of differentiating into adipocyte, chondrocyte, and osteocyte lineages, showing promise for regenerative medicine applications.

In this study, N-WASP deficiency in mouse skin was found to cause severe alopecia and disrupt hair follicle cycling by 5 months, highlighting its critical role in skin function and Wnt signaling.

This study found that WISP-1 plays a key role in ligamentum flavum fibrosis through the Hedgehog-Gli1 pathway, with cyclopamine showing potential to reduce fibrosis effects in a rabbit model.

This study identified a novel splice site mutation in the LIPH gene associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair, contributing to understanding the genetic basis of this condition.

This guideline provides evidence-based recommendations for prescribing testosterone therapy to women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder, noting a moderate therapeutic benefit but highlighting limited data and regulatory challenges.

This study provides a guideline for the safe and effective use of testosterone in women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder, recommending systemic transdermal testosterone for appropriate candidates while highlighting the importance of informed consent and monitoring due to unestablished long-term safety.

This case report identifies a previously undocumented nonsense mutation in DCAF17 in a Chinese patient with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, inherited from consanguineous parents.

This study describes how Chimp Haven developed and implemented behavioral metric protocols to guide welfare management decisions for captive chimpanzees effectively.

In this study, the Waris Hairline Dot Technique for hair transplantation demonstrated high patient satisfaction, excellent naturalness, rapid healing, and minimal complications, suggesting it is a reproducible and aesthetically superior method for creating natural hairlines.

In this study, a computer-aided imaging system accurately measured the width of balding areas in female pattern hair loss, correlating strongly with clinical staging severity.

This study identified highly variable genes in mesenchymal stem/stromal cells that are linked to classic functions like development and inflammation response, suggesting their potential as markers for further potency studies.

In this study, the authors successfully translated, culturally adapted, and validated the Women's Androgenetic Alopecia Quality of Life questionnaire into Spanish, demonstrating it as a reliable tool for assessing female pattern hair loss.

This study found that mutant mice with the we/we wal/wal genotype exhibit significant defects in hair shaft structure and epidermis stratification, correlating with postnatal alopecia symptoms.

This study found that ectopic expression of Whn in transgenic mice caused impaired differentiation in epidermis and hair follicles, with hair growth defects and severe urinary tract issues leading to hydronephrosis.

This study found that the WIF1 gene may play a crucial role in hair follicle growth and development in Angora rabbits by regulating specific genes and proteins.

Adalimumab significantly improves quality of life for patients with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa.

In this study, researchers found that transgenic expression of the Hairless gene in keratinocytes can restore hair follicle regeneration in Hr-deficient mice by repressing Wise, a modulator of Wnt signaling.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.

This case report describes a 33-year-old Kashmiri woman with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome who has a rare DCAF17 gene mutation, c.321+1G>A, providing further evidence for its role in the genetic basis of this neuroendocrine disorder.

In this study, researchers reviewed wig prescribing practices for alopecia at a single center and found a high demand for wigs, especially acrylic ones, and noted significant funding discrepancies between different regions, emphasizing their importance in managing patient wellbeing on the NHS.

This article reviews the use of high-frequency ultrasonography to visualize nail units and scalps in dermatology, highlighting its potential benefits for disease assessment and treatment monitoring, but reports no new clinical results.
