Alopecia areata is likely caused by a combination of genetic factors and immune system dysfunction, and may represent different diseases with various causes.
research Androgen excess: Investigations and management
The conclusion is that managing androgen excess requires long-term treatment, including hormonal contraceptives and androgen blockers, with follow-up after six months.
research The logic of follicular unit transplantation
The document concludes that follicular unit transplantation offers more natural results and better graft survival than older hair transplant methods.
research Age-induced hair greying - the multiple effects of oxidative stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research Approach to the adult female patient with diffuse nonscarring alopecia
The document concludes that careful evaluation is key to diagnose and treat women with hair loss, with tests for thyroid, iron, and hormones as needed.
research Female pattern hair loss: A clinical, pathophysiologic, and therapeutic review
No cure for female pattern hair loss, but various effective treatments exist.
research Molecular basis of hair cell loss
The document concludes that there are no effective clinical treatments for hearing loss due to hair cell damage, but research is ongoing.
research Interventions for nail psoriasis
Some systemic treatments work for nail psoriasis but can have serious side effects.

Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
research Vitiligo
Vitiligo causes white skin patches and is linked to autoimmune issues.
research Photodynamic and photobiological effects of light-emitting diode (LED) therapy in dermatological disease: an update
LED therapy is safe and shows potential for treating skin conditions and promoting hair growth, but more research is needed.
research A locus on distal chromosome 10 (ahl4) affecting age-related hearing loss in A/J mice
Scientists found a gene in mice that causes early hearing loss.
research External light activates hair follicle stem cells through eyes via an ipRGC–SCN–sympathetic neural pathway
Light can turn on hair growth cells through a nerve path starting in the eyes.
research Traction alopecia: the root of the problem
Tight hairstyles and chemical relaxers can cause hair loss known as traction alopecia.

Nanotechnology in dermatology shows promise for better drug delivery and treatment effectiveness but requires more safety research.
research Application of multiphoton microscopy in dermatological studies: A mini-review
Multiphoton microscopy is a promising tool for detailed skin imaging and could improve patient care if its challenges are addressed.
research Dose-response study of topical minoxidil in male pattern baldness
Lowest effective minoxidil concentration is 1%, but 2% works better for male pattern baldness.
research The Functional Diversity of Epidermal Keratins Revealed by the Partial Rescue of the Keratin 14 Null Phenotype by Keratin 16
K16 can partially replace K14 but causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection
HIV can cause unusual and severe skin problems that are hard to treat.
research Acute cardiomyopathy induced by the vasodilating antihypertensive agent minoxidil
Minoxidil can cause heart muscle damage in dogs.
research Long-term follow-up of men with male pattern baldness treated with topical minoxidil
