In this study, the authors reported that certain SNPs on chromosome 20 were associated with androgenetic alopecia in the ethnic Han population of Yunnan, with specific alleles linked to higher likelihood of developing the condition.

This review discusses genetic factors and associated diseases linked to androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found six new genetic factors linked to early-onset androgenetic alopecia and its association with increased risk of Parkinson's disease and decreased fertility.

This study found that male pattern baldness in European males is strongly heritable and associated with genetic markers linked to earlier puberty, bone density, and pancreatic function.

This study found that hair analysis may be useful in early breast cancer detection by identifying distinct calcium and strontium concentration patterns before and during cancer development.

Dermatologists give better information on pathology forms, hypersensitivity vasculitis is a common skin issue, misdiagnoses can occur, and various skin conditions are linked to loss of elastin or genetic factors.

This case study describes a patient with Turner syndrome who, despite lacking many classic features, presented with multiple autoimmune diseases, suggesting a link between complex X chromosome rearrangements and increased autoimmune risk.

This study suggests that hair analysis could serve as a diagnostic tool for detecting calcium channel activity, which influences hair calcium levels and may indicate calcium deficiency or related disease states.

This study found that overexpression of sPLA2-X in mice was associated with alopecia and hair follicle abnormalities, highlighting its potential role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This study found that hair regrowth in Pomeranians with hair cycle arrest treated with melatonin was not associated with a change in oestrogen receptor-α staining.

This pharmacovigilance study found that certain systemic medications, including finasteride, bortezomib, and dupilumab, were disproportionately reported in association with eyelid disorders like blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction, and chalazia, suggesting these drugs may contribute to these conditions though benefits might still outweigh the risks.

This article reviews the potential causes of insufficient androgen action during fetal development, such as enzyme and receptor gene mutations or environmental disruptors, but reports no new results.

This case report describes a 3-year-old male with X-linked ichthyosis and associated neurologic abnormalities, identifying an unusual cortical development malformation and suggesting that abnormal hair banding may assist diagnosis.

This review discusses the role of the ectodysplasin A2 receptor as a biomarker and driver of ageing related to inflammation, and its potential therapeutic implications, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews sPLA2-mediated phospholipid metabolism using sPLA2 transgenic/knockout mice and lipid mass spectrometry, offering insights into the distinct roles of sPLA2 enzymes in various biological events.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor in lampreys, which lack bones and hair, binds 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and may function to induce enzymes for detoxifying substances.

This review examines biological reasons for sex-based differences in COVID-19 outcomes, noting that females exhibit stronger immune responses, potentially explaining lower severity and mortality compared to males.

The exact cause of growth hormone-responsive alopecia in dogs is unclear.

This study is the first to document alopecia in Guadalupe fur seals in the Northeast Pacific Ocean, finding that it may result from nutritional stress due to higher sea surface temperatures.

This article reviews environmental factors contributing to androgenic alopecia and emphasizes the importance of giving patients advice to manage hair loss; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that hair casts, seen in girls with tightly drawn hairstyles, may result from local circulatory disturbances and scalp inflammation.

This review synthesizes information on isotretinoin’s systemic toxicity, emphasizing that its adverse effects, including mucocutaneous, hepatic, and musculoskeletal reactions, primarily reflect its pharmacodynamic actions and are generally manageable with individualized dosing and monitoring, though its teratogenicity remains a significant safety concern.

This research abstract outlines the innovative approach of the Frontiers journal series, which aims to transform academic publishing by providing open access, interdisciplinary journals that employ a rigorous peer-review process to serve both scholarly communities and the public.

This chapter reviews the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of various non-hormonal, non-infectious alopecias without providing new clinical findings.

This chapter discusses atypical endocrinopathies affecting the hair and skin in small animals and provides treatments but does not present new research results.

This review provides an update on sex hormone-associated dermatoses in dogs, detailing known conditions like feminization syndrome and exploring less understood issues such as alopecia X, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study discusses calcinosis cutis and alopecia totalis, highlighting the need for thyroid disease screening in children with alopecia areata, especially those with a history of Down syndrome or signs of potential thyroid dysfunction.

This case report concluded that undiagnosed Menkes disease, an X-linked disorder causing copper deficiency, contributed to a 7-month-old's illness and death, complicating his presentation with viral septic shock and methamphetamine exposure.

This study explains how the development of keratin-associated proteins in embryonic epidermis is crucial for forming protective barriers in vertebrates, enabling them to adapt to terrestrial environments.

In a study on the effects of stromal vascular fraction (SVF) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on hair growth in nude mice, researchers found that both treatments promoted hair growth, with SVF showing a stronger effect.
