Hair loss linked to metabolic issues and insulin resistance; early assessment may reduce future health risks.
research Hair follicle plasticity with complemented immune-modulation following follicular unit extraction
Transplanted hair follicles can change and adapt to new areas of the body, with the immune system possibly playing a role in this adjustment.
research Comparison of quality of life in patients with androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata
Both androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata negatively impact quality of life, with no significant difference between them.
research Therapeutic implications of topical cetirizine 1% in treatment of male androgenetic alopecia: A case‐controlled study
Topical cetirizine 1% promotes hair growth in male androgenetic alopecia patients.
research Serum Interleukin 17 in Patients with Pattern Hair Loss
Targeting IL-17 could help treat pattern hair loss.
research A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled pilot study to assess the efficacy of a 24-week topical treatment by latanoprost 0.1% on hair growth and pigmentation in healthy volunteers with androgenetic alopecia
Latanoprost 0.1% may effectively treat hair loss.
research Use of Nape and Peri-Auricular Hair by Follicular Unit Extraction to Create Soft Hairlines and Temples: My Experience With 128 Patients
Transplanting hair from the nape and around the ear to the hairline and temples generally satisfies patients and looks natural.
research Hair follicle growth by stromal vascular fraction-enhanced adipose transplantation in baldness
SVF-enhanced adipose transplantation shows potential as a hair loss treatment.
research Efficacy of 1,550-nm Erbium-Glass Fractional Laser Treatment and Its Effect on the Expression of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 and Wnt/β-Catenin in Androgenetic Alopecia

research Association between hair loss and cardiometabolic diseases in Chinese adults: a cross-sectional analysis in Tianning Cohort
Severe hair loss is linked to higher risks of hypertension and diabetes, especially in younger adults and women.
research Autologous adipose transplantation an effective method to treat alopecia after trauma: a case report
Using a patient's own fat tissue helped treat hair loss caused by an injury.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Surgical hair restoration
Surgical hair restoration involves moving hair from a non-balding area to a balding area, with the transplanted hair not subject to male pattern baldness. Medications can slow hair loss and regrow some hair, but successful treatment needs careful planning, skill, and ethical responsibility due to progressive hair loss and limited donor hair.
research Combination of Exosomes and Microneedling in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia: A Case Report
Combining exosomes with microneedling may improve hair growth in androgenetic alopecia.
research Evolution of Techniques in Hair Transplantation: A 12-Year Perspective
Hair transplantation techniques have improved over 12 years, with follicular unit grafting providing more natural results and potential future advances in automation and genetics.
research Metabolic Syndrome in Androgenetic Alopecia in a Tertiary Care Centre in Goa: A Case Control Study During COVID-19 Pandemic
Androgenetic alopecia is linked to a higher risk of metabolic syndrome.
research Changes in hair weight in men with androgenetic alopecia after treatment with finasteride (1 mg daily): Three- and 4-year results
Finasteride increases hair weight and count in men with hair loss, with best results after four years.
research Evaluation of efficacy and safety of finasteride 1 mg in 3177 Japanese men with androgenetic alopecia
