      research Inflammatory and non-melanocytic tumoral pathology of the nail

      January 2014 in “Pathology”
      The document concludes that understanding nail anatomy is key for diagnosing nail diseases, early signs of nail melanoma may allow for less aggressive treatment, and specific genetic mutations are important in thyroid cancer prognosis and treatment.

      research Genetics of thyroid lesions updated

      January 2014 in “Pathology”
      RET mutation is important in familial medullary thyroid carcinoma, and BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid carcinoma is linked to more aggressive cancer and higher death rates.

      research The Transverse Anatomy of Androgenic Alopecia

      42 citations , December 1990 in “The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology”
      This study found decreased hair density and altered follicular architecture in the balding frontal scalp of patients with androgenic alopecia, with increased vellus hairs noted.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 2 years ago
      Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.

      community What is the deal with "longitudinal partial follicular unit transplantation"

       5 upvotes 6 years ago
      Longitudinal partial follicular unit transplantation involves extracting part of the donor follicular unit, allowing the donor area to be overharvested without noticeable hair loss. The conversation questions if this method is practiced in clinics or if it's theoretical, and whether it relates to hair cloning or multiplication.

      Longitudinal partial follicular unit transplantation involves extracting part of the donor follicular unit, allowing the donor area to maintain hair production and potentially increasing transplant yield. The conversation questions if this method is practiced in clinics or remains theoretical, and whether it relates to hair cloning or multiplication.
