A woman's hair grew back while she was taking sulphasalazine for arthritis.

This case report highlights that improper application techniques, such as scalp occlusion, can increase systemic absorption of minoxidil and lead to unwanted side effects like hypertrichosis.

In this review, the authors explore how wigs can significantly improve the quality of life for individuals with alopecia areata by providing emotional benefits and serving as a coping mechanism for hair loss, while also addressing economic considerations and potential barriers to their use.

This case report describes a 10-year multidisciplinary treatment of a transgender woman in Slovenia, reporting a successful medical and social transition with stable emotional health, abstinence from alcohol, and no regrets following her transition.

This case report describes a successful hair transplant surgery using the follicular unit extraction method to restore a bald area following scalp tumor resection and skin grafting, highlighting its utility in such complex cases.

This study found that follicular unit-like wigs made from a polycaprolactone matrix exhibited good histocompatibility in New Zealand white rabbits, with reduced inflammatory cell infiltration compared to a polypropylene matrix.

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 letter to the editor reports no new results but discusses the effect of hairpieces on the perceived quality of life in female pattern hair loss patients.

The document concludes that H2-antagonists and proton pump inhibitors are highly effective for ulcers, eradicating Helicobacter pylori is important to prevent recurrence, and misoprostol helps with NSAID-related ulcers.

This study identified a new gene, mrp4, in mice, which suggests it may have a unique role in the growth and development of hair follicles in the ears and tails.

This review discusses treatments for chemotherapy-induced alopecia, highlighting scalp cooling for hair loss prevention and 2% topical minoxidil for regrowth acceleration as effective options, but reports a need for more rigorous trials to validate promising new therapies.

This review discusses the pathogenesis and clinical features of androgenetic alopecia, highlighting potential links to fibrosing alopecia and suggesting the need for combined therapeutic approaches; it reports no new clinical results.

The guide suggests using keratin fibers and wigs to help hair look thicker or hide hair loss.
