Rothmund-Thomson syndrome type 2 can cause chronic, poorly healing wounds.
research Telogen effluvium
Telogen effluvium is a common hair loss condition where many hairs enter the resting phase, often not noticeable until significant loss occurs, and treatment focuses on the underlying cause.
research Acanthosis nigricans and the metabolic syndrome
Acanthosis nigricans is a skin condition that may indicate a higher risk for insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, and more research is needed to understand and treat it.
research [Nevus comedonicus. A rare skin disease of the hair follicles].

research Autologous stem cell-based interventions in Australia: exploring patient experience in light of regulatory exceptionalism
Patients in Australia underwent costly, unproven stem cell treatments due to weak regulations and aggressive marketing.
research Ptosis in childhood
Childhood ptosis can vary from a minor cosmetic issue to a serious condition and may signal other health problems.
research Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
CCCA is a common, progressive hair loss condition that may not always be linked to hair care practices and requires a biopsy for diagnosis.
research Paradigm Shift from Linear Strip to Follicular Unit Excision in Hair Restoration Surgery
Follicular unit excision (FUE) is a popular hair transplant method that avoids a linear scar but has potential challenges and side effects if not done properly.
research Human hair production by scalp samples grafted onto nude mice. Biochemical data on normal human hair and the genetic defect trichothiodystrophy
Grafted human scalp samples on mice can produce human hair, useful for studying hair genetics.
research Is There a Rationale for the Use of an Alpha-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone Analog to Improve Gray Hair Repigmentation?
PT-20 did not significantly improve gray hair repigmentation.
research Generating hair follicle inductive dermal papillae cells from adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells
Adipose-derived stem cells can be used to create cells that help grow new hair.
research Eyelash alopecia areata: case series and literature review
Eyelash alopecia areata often goes undiagnosed and can lead to complete eyelash regrowth, especially in younger patients.
research Clinical biochemistry of dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
research Scaffold-based developmental tissue engineering strategies for ectodermal organ regeneration
Scaffold-based strategies show promise for regenerating hair follicles and teeth but need more research for clinical use.
research Cicatricial (scarring) alopecia
Different types of scarring alopecia may be stages of one disease, and accurate diagnosis is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Biofabrication of Human Skin with Its Appendages
Current methods can't fully recreate skin and its features, and more research is needed for clinical use.
research Topical cetirizine and oral vitamin D: a valid treatment for hypotrichosis caused by ectodermal dysplasia
Using cetirizine on the skin and taking vitamin D can help increase hair growth in children with hair loss from ectodermal dysplasia.
research Mechanical engineering of hair follicle regeneration by in situ bioprinting

research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
