research Comparative study of efficacy of excimer light therapy vs. intralesional triamcinolone vs. topical 5% minoxidil for alopecia areata: an observational study
Intralesional triamcinolone is the most effective treatment for alopecia areata, followed by excimer light therapy, and then topical minoxidil. The scalp responds better to treatment than the beard area.
research Ultrasonography In Hair Follicle Pathology
Ultrasonography can help diagnose and monitor hair loss conditions.
research Finasteride as a positive control on reproduction studies
Finasteride causes reproductive malformations in male rats.

The document concludes that using gadolinium-based contrast agents during MRI can be linked to Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis in patients with severe kidney disease.
research Atrophying scamous papulous dermatitis (Degos disease): Nine years of follow-up
A woman with Degos disease managed her condition for nine years with medications and had two healthy pregnancies, while a separate finding suggests a possible link between female pattern hair loss and high blood pressure.
research Blood pressure levels in women with androgenetic alopecia
Women with androgenetic alopecia may have higher blood pressure levels.

The new method found new shared genetic areas linked to both Type 2 Diabetes and Prostate Cancer.
research Whiskers amiss, a new vibrissae and hair mutation near the Krt1 cluster on mouse Chromosome 11
A new mutation in mice causes crooked whiskers and messy hair.
research Utilising SNP Association Analysis as a Prospective Approach for Personalising Androgenetic Alopecia Treatment
Genetic factors could lead to personalized treatments for hair loss.
research Sequence and structure based assessment of non-synonymous SNPs in hypertrichosis universalis
Two specific SNPs in the TRPS1 gene cause excessive hair growth by altering the protein's structure.
research Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms are not associated with alopecia areata
Vitamin D receptor gene variations are not linked to alopecia areata.
research Recent Progress and Morphological Distribution of Polydopamine-Based Biomaterials and Their Applications
