January 2012 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study reveals that human hair follicles transition between active and dormant states stochastically, challenging the idea of a cyclical automaton controlling hair growth.
April 2026 in “Mathematics” This study used a probabilistic framework to show that platelet-rich plasma preparation results in significant variability in platelet dose due to factors like injected volume and concentration factor.

November 2004 in “Clinical and Experimental Dermatology” This study identified a new class of shed hair in young women that could impact future hair research and suggests that the concept of hair miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia may need revision.

,
February 2002 in “Journal of theoretical biology” This study found that a stochastic follicular automaton model replicates hair follicle cycle fluctuations, with deterministic simulations aligning with steady-state levels as follicle numbers increase.

February 2016 in “F1000Research” This review introduces an integrated view of hair follicle behavior, highlighting a Yin Yang model of regulation and suggesting glycans as key elements in hair follicle growth control, without reporting new clinical findings.
