research Dermoscopy of scalp tumours: a multi‐centre study conducted by the international dermoscopy society
The study concluded that scalp tumors show different patterns based on age, gender, and tumor thickness, and emphasized the importance of early detection and scalp examinations.
research Inhibition of rat α-reductases by finasteride: Evidence for isozyme differences in the mechanism of inhibition
Finasteride effectively blocks rat enzymes, but with varying methods and strength.
research Long-Term Superiority of Composite Versus Muscle-Only Free Flaps for Skull Coverage
Composite flaps are better than muscle-only flaps for long-term skull coverage.
research Shedding light on therapeutics in alopecia and their relevance to COVID-19
Some alopecia treatments might help treat COVID-19, but more research is needed.

The treatment improved neck wrinkles and skin laxity.
research Rotterdam criteria–based diagnostic subtype is not a strong predictor of cutaneous phenotype in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome: A cross-sectional study
The type of PCOS a woman has doesn't strongly predict her skin or metabolic symptoms; obesity is a more important factor.
research Hair density, hair diameter and the prevalence of female pattern hair loss
FPHL affects hair density and diameter, causing visible hair loss in older women.
research British Association of Dermatologists’ guidelines for the management of alopecia areata 2012
Guidelines suggest various treatments for alopecia areata, but leaving it untreated is also an option as 80% cases may recover on their own.
research Global Adiposity Rather Than Abnormal Regional Fat Distribution Characterizes Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS have overall higher body fat, not abnormal fat placement, and more insulin resistance.
research Alopecia areata: Animal models illuminate autoimmune pathogenesis and novel immunotherapeutic strategies
Animal models have helped understand hair loss from alopecia areata and find new treatments.
research Towards a consensus on how to diagnose and quantify female pattern hair loss – The ‘Female Pattern Hair Loss Severity Index (FPHL-SI)’
New method measures female hair loss: Female Pattern Hair Loss Severity Index (FPHL-SI).
research The effect of melatonin implants administered from December until April, on plasma prolactin, triiodothyronine and thyroxine concentrations and on the timing of the spring moult in cashmere goats
Melatonin implants can change the seasonal prolactin levels and hair growth in adult cashmere goats but not in juveniles, and don't delay spring moult for better fiber harvesting.
research Insights into anthropogenic threats and early mortality in the Guadalupe fur seal from a plausible mixed colony on the San Benito Archipelago, Mexico
Guadalupe fur seals at San Benito Archipelago face high mortality and health issues due to pollution and marine debris.
research Female pattern hair loss
FPHL is a common, age-related, genetic hair loss with unclear causes and limited treatment options.
research Overexpression of Smad7 results in severe pathological alterations in multiple epithelial tissues
Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.
research Foxp3 Post-translational Modifications and Treg Suppressive Activity
Changes to the Foxp3 protein affect how well regulatory T cells can control the immune system, which could help treat immune diseases and cancer.
research Ovarian Morphology Is a Marker of Heritable Biochemical Traits in Sisters with Polycystic Ovaries
Polycystic ovarian shape is a genetic sign of PCOS and its hormonal and metabolic features can be inherited.
research Clinical and hormonal effects of the 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor finasteride in idiopathic hirsutism.
Finasteride reduces hair growth and is safe for women with excessive hair.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata involves immune response and gene changes affecting hair loss.
research A Randomized, Controlled Pilot Trial Comparing Platelet-Rich Plasma to Topical Minoxidil Foam for Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia in Women
Both Platelet-Rich Plasma and Minoxidil foam increase hair count in women with hair loss, but Minoxidil is more effective. However, women were more satisfied with Platelet-Rich Plasma treatment.
research Expression of androgen receptor coactivator ARA70/ELE1 in androgenic alopecia
The protein ARA70/ELE1 is involved in male pattern baldness, and lower levels of its short form may lead to hair thinning.
