research Epidemiology, diagnosis and management of hirsutism: a consensus statement by the Androgen Excess and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Society
Experts recommend using evidence-based methods to diagnose and treat hirsutism, focusing on symptoms and underlying causes.
research Treatment of Hair Loss
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair loss, but continued research is needed for better treatments.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2018 update on objectives, design and main results
The Rotterdam Study updated findings on elderly health, focusing on heart disease, genetics, lifestyle effects, and disease understanding.
research Admixture in Latin America: Geographic Structure, Phenotypic Diversity and Self-Perception of Ancestry Based on 7,342 Individuals
The study found that in Latin America, ancestry varies by location, influences physical traits, and affects how people perceive their own heritage.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: A multicenter review of 355 patients
Most patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia are postmenopausal women, and treatments like finasteride and dutasteride can improve or stabilize the condition.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2016 objectives and design update
The Rotterdam Study found risk factors for elderly diseases, links between lifestyle and genetics with health conditions, and aimed to explore new areas like DNA methylation and sensory input effects on brain function.
research Regulation of somatic cell reprogramming through inducible mir-302 expression
Increasing mir-302 turns human hair cells into stem cells by changing gene regulation and demethylation.
research Videodermoscopy in the evaluation of hair and scalp disorders
Videodermoscopy improves diagnosis of hair and scalp disorders and may reduce scalp biopsies.
research Guidelines for the management of vitiligo: the European Dermatology Forum consensus
Manage vitiligo with treatments, address emotions, and use camouflage techniques.
research Severe cutaneous adverse reactions to drugs
Some drugs can cause rare but potentially deadly skin reactions, and early treatment and avoiding the drug again are key.
research A randomized clinical trial of 5% topical minoxidil versus 2% topical minoxidil and placebo in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in men
5% minoxidil works better for hair growth and density, with minor irritation.
research Formulation and in vitro assessment of minoxidil niosomes for enhanced skin delivery
Niosomes improve minoxidil skin delivery for hair loss treatment.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2014 objectives and design update
The Rotterdam Study aims to understand disease causes in the elderly and has found new risk factors and genetic influences on various conditions.
research Functional lacrimal gland regeneration by transplantation of a bioengineered organ germ
Bioengineered lacrimal glands can restore tear production and protect eyes.
research Wnt1/βcatenin injury response activates the epicardium and cardiac fibroblasts to promote cardiac repair
Wnt1/βcatenin signaling is crucial for heart repair after injury.
research Tofacitinib for the treatment of severe alopecia areata and variants: A study of 90 patients
Tofacitinib is effective and safe for severe hair loss, but full regrowth is less likely after 10 years of hair loss.
research Timing of expression of the core clock gene Bmal1 influences its effects on aging and survival
The timing of when the gene Bmal1 is active affects aging and survival, with its absence during development, not adulthood, leading to premature aging.
research Use of cyproterone acetate (CPA) in the treatment of acne, hirsutism and virilism
Cyproterone acetate is effective for acne but less so for hirsutism and alopecia, with some side effects and quick menstrual cycle recovery after treatment.
research Female pattern hair loss
Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2010 objectives and design update
The Rotterdam Study aims to understand various diseases in older adults.
research A randomized, placebo-controlled trial of 5% and 2% topical minoxidil solutions in the treatment of female pattern hair loss
5% and 2% minoxidil solutions effectively promote hair growth and reduce hair loss, with 5% being slightly more effective but having more side effects.
research Lipoatrophy and severe metabolic disturbance in mice with fat-specific deletion of PPARγ
Mice lacking the PPARγ gene in their fat cells had almost no fat tissue, severe metabolic problems, and abnormal development of other fat-related tissues.
research Telogen Effluvium
Telogen effluvium is a reversible hair loss condition that requires a detailed diagnosis and often resolves on its own.
research Interferon alfa-2a in the treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma
Interferon alfa-2a is effective for treating cutaneous T cell lymphoma but has significant side effects.
research Dermal β-catenin activity in response to epidermal Wnt ligands is required for fibroblast proliferation and hair follicle initiation
Skin needs dermal β-catenin activity for hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Evaluation and treatment of male and female pattern hair loss
Early diagnosis and treatment, using finasteride, minoxidil, or hair transplantation, improves hair loss outcomes.
research Evidence-based (S3) guideline for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in women and in men
Use minoxidil for hair loss; finasteride and dutasteride for men, dutasteride for women.
research WNT10A Mutations Are a Frequent Cause of a Broad Spectrum of Ectodermal Dysplasias with Sex-Biased Manifestation Pattern in Heterozygotes
WNT10A mutations often cause ectodermal dysplasias, with males showing more tooth issues than females.
research Oral ruxolitinib induces hair regrowth in patients with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata
