    TLDR A-PRF reduces pain and complications after wisdom tooth removal.
    The study investigated the effects of Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) on postoperative complications following mandibular third molar odontectomy in 100 healthy patients. The research group of 50 patients received A-PRF, which significantly reduced pain, trismus, edema, and analgesic intake on the 3rd and 7th days post-surgery compared to the control group. A-PRF also reduced bleeding time and the occurrence of hematomas. The study concluded that A-PRF effectively minimized postoperative discomfort and complications, proving to be a valuable and safe material for clinical use.

      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
