    GlossaryHand Gesture

    non-verbal communication using hand movements to convey messages

    A hand gesture is a form of non-verbal communication where movements or positions of the hands convey specific messages or emotions. These gestures can be culturally specific, such as a thumbs-up for approval, or universally understood, like waving to say hello or goodbye. In professional contexts, hand gestures can be used to enhance presentations, signal instructions, or facilitate silent communication in noisy environments.

      The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
