This study identified a key Arabidopsis thaliana gene, TIP1, whose product is involved in S-acylation crucial for normal plant cell growth, particularly affecting root hair development.

This study found that an unbalanced diet was the most significant factor contributing to hair loss among Saudi women surveyed.

This study found that recombinant human ADM2 treatment inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in human hair follicles, contrasting with the previously documented pro-proliferative and anti-apoptotic functions of ADM2.

This case report describes a patient with Crohn's disease developing alopecia and psoriasiform skin lesions while on adalimumab treatment.

This study assessed the nutritional status of elderly residents in a Baghdad nursing home, finding many are overweight with issues like easy hair loss and inadequate vitamin and mineral intake.

In this study, Alopecia Areata patients were generally knowledgeable about their condition, believed it was due to genetic or health factors, and experienced significant anxiety and depression affecting their quality of life.

This study reports the first cases of loose anagen hair syndrome in dark-skinned children from Upper Egypt, noting it may be under-diagnosed and primarily causes cosmetic concerns without affecting general health.

This study found that microplastics on the Lebanese Mediterranean coast transport various organic and inorganic pollutants, posing threats to marine organisms and potentially human health.

This research suggests that the digit ratio, 2D:4D, is unlikely to be a significant indicator of male androgenetic alopecia, contradicting a prominent isolated finding from a previous study.

The researchers in this study conducted a comparative analysis of hair and body shampoos, finding notable physicochemical differences, such as body shampoos having lower surface tension and higher foam heights, while hair shampoos were more acidic, potentially to meet different biological and sensory needs.

In this study, researchers found that adolescent alopecia is significantly prevalent, especially among females, and is associated with iron deficiency, highlighting the need for nutritional monitoring in this group.

This study observed that PAD type III and trichohyalin are expressed earlier than their deiminated form during the first and second hair cycles in rat hair follicles, indicating a potential additional factor is involved in triggering deimination.

This study found that incorporating human adipose subcutaneous tissue in 3D organotypic skin cultures mimicking hypertrophic scar conditions improved epidermal homeostasis, formed a basement membrane similar to native skin, and reduced myofibroblast presence, indicating an anti-fibrotic effect.

This study found that nearly half of those perceiving hair loss reported a significant impact on their quality of life, highlighting potential benefits of seeking medical advice for diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that 3D imaging may serve as a promising tool for objectively evaluating facial vitiligo repigmentation after treatment with upadacitinib.

This study suggests an association between metabolic syndrome and androgenic alopecia severity, though this association was not statistically significant.

This study found a high prevalence of stress-related hair loss in Al Majma'ah, Saudi Arabia, particularly among females and individuals aged 31-40, with significant associations between hair loss and stress, psychosocial challenges, and sociodemographic factors.

This study reported that two-thirds of adult females in Saudi Arabia recognized the link between vitamin D deficiency and hair loss, but overall knowledge was average, indicating a need for increased awareness and vitamin D supplementation.

This case report describes a woman with alopecia universalis, resistant to multiple treatments, who experienced successful hair regrowth with adalimumab, suggesting potential mechanisms for future investigation.

This study identified that a deficiency in the palmitoyl transferase enzyme, due to a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene, led to severe physiological abnormalities in mice, including skin, bone, and systemic amyloid issues.

This case study observed that a Unani medicine regimen significantly improved hair shedding and quality of life in a 24-year-old female with Telogen Effluvium following a febrile illness, showing potential effectiveness and safety in this context.

This article discusses the genetic and hormonal factors involved in androgenetic alopecia and its association with increased risks of cardiovascular diseases and metabolic disorders, but it does not present new research findings.

In this study, researchers found that alopecia significantly impacts depression and quality of life, especially for those with hereditary baldness in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, and emphasized the need for psychological support to improve mental health.

This study found that evaluating nasal breathing parameters in children with adenoiditis may help assess the effectiveness of conservative treatments during outpatient care.

This systematic review reported objective clinical improvement with low-dose oral minoxidil in up to 100% of patients with androgenetic alopecia and up to 82.4% with alopecia areata.
