In this review, the researchers explored the formulation and evaluation of a pure herbal shampoo using plant extracts, aiming to compare its physicochemical properties with synthetic and other herbal shampoos, and concluded that consumer expectation shifts towards safety and efficacy could enhance herbal shampoo popularity.

This study observed that biodegradable PVA/agar films with incorporated Achillea millefolium L. essential oil, especially at 1% (v/v), demonstrated good mechanical performance and selective antibacterial activity against E. coli, suggesting their potential as wound dressings.

This study developed EGCG-loaded nanohydrogels using ethyl cellulose and polyvinyl alcohol to enhance the stability and delivery of the hydrophilic drug in aloe vera gel, optimizing encapsulation efficiency and drug release properties.

This study introduced hydrogel microneedles loaded with palladium nanoparticles, which utilize the inherent cytotoxicity of polyethyleneimine to enhance the effectiveness of doxorubicin in treating melanoma, achieving a tumor inhibition rate of up to 98% in a murine model.

This study reports that while DCP had similar treatment efficacy in propylene glycol and isopropanol for alopecia areata, the formulation in isopropanol was better tolerated.

The study found that ondansetron decreased alcohol consumption only in adult rats that experienced altered neuroactive steroid levels from early post-natal finasteride exposure, suggesting increased 5HT3 receptor sensitivity in these rats.

This study found that a 2% topical minoxidil solution significantly increased hair regrowth compared to placebo in women with androgenetic alopecia over 32 weeks.

This study observed that NSPC predominantly differentiated into neurons when exposed to serum fractions with molecules under 100 kDa, particularly with biomaterial and fibronectin, in the presence of basic fibroblast growth factor.

In this study, poly (ɛ-caprolactone)–chitosan–poly (vinyl alcohol) nanofibrous scaffolds used on canine skin wound models were found to significantly accelerate healing rates of excision and burn wounds, without inducing immunogenic reactions.

This study reported that the pseudoceramide bis-oleamido isopropyl alcohol (BOI) promotes hair growth in ex vivo cultured human hair follicles, likely by enhancing sphingolipid synthesis in dermal papilla cells.

This study found that using topical latanoprost 0.005% solution significantly increased hair density and regrowth in patients with scalp alopecia areata over 12 weeks, although it did not significantly reduce hair loss area compared to the placebo.

In this study, alcohol-free minoxidil 5% demonstrated effectiveness in improving hair growth parameters and demonstrated a good safety profile and high patient acceptance among Indian men with androgenetic alopecia over 180 days, without any reported adverse events.

In this study, combining 2% minoxidil with weekly microneedling significantly improved hair regrowth in women with female pattern hair loss compared to using minoxidil alone, with an 85% effective rate reported in the group receiving both treatments over a 24-week period.

This study provides a detailed overview of 1,295 clinical trials related to alcohol dependence registered on ClinicalTrials.gov, highlighting that 59.15% of these trials have been completed, primarily as interventional studies, with most located in North America.

In this study, researchers developed and validated a rapid and robust chromatographic method to assess the concentration of Minoxidil and Finasteride in a new topical formulation for alopecia, demonstrating its ability to distinguish between different types of formulations using in vitro diffusion data.

In this study, 70% of female androgenetic alopecia patients who did not respond to standard minoxidil experienced clinical improvement after switching to a propylene glycol-free, witch hazel-based 5% minoxidil sulfate solution, with the treatment also being well-tolerated.

P-3074 effectively blocks scalp DHT better than oral finasteride.

In this randomized controlled study, the researchers found that an herbal extract combination showed similar efficacy to 3% minoxidil solution in treating androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks, with no significant safety concerns, suggesting it might be a viable alternative treatment.

Minoxidil topical foam is a better, less irritating treatment for hair loss.

This report describes a case of secondary cutis verticis gyrata due to a cerebriform intradermal nevus, highlighting clinical management and screening guidelines.

This study explores the use of low-dose naltrexone as a novel treatment for lichen planopilaris, but specific results or outcomes are not detailed in the abstract.

This study developed a bilayer material combining poly(vinyl alcohol) and bacterial cellulose with a gelatin-poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogel, showing strong potential as a wound dressing due to its good antibacterial properties, cell viability, and sustained drug release.

Keratin-based hydrogels from human hair and wool are promising for wound dressings and are more eco-friendly.

The study found that social isolation in mice increases the sensitivity of their hippocampal synapses to ethanol's inhibitory effects on long-term potentiation, an effect preventable by finasteride.

The researchers reported a rapid expansion of direct-to-consumer telemedicine services in Australia since the COVID-19 pandemic, driven by substantial investment and changes in telehealth regulations.

This review describes how liver and kidney diseases and diabetes may affect ethyl glucuronide levels in hair, impacting forensic and clinical interpretations, but reports no new experimental results.

This pilot study suggests that platelet-rich plasma may be a promising treatment for chronic telogen effluvium with good safety, and cost-effective preparation methods may be reliable alternatives to more expensive ones.

This study developed an emulsion formulation with optimal properties for androgenetic alopecia treatment using saw palmetto and Japanese Sophora extracts, evaluated for stability and release of active ingredients.

In this study, a new formulation of all-trans retinoic acid bound to polyvinyl alcohol showed reduced skin inflammation and sustained drug release for up to six days compared to free ATRA in vitro and in vivo.

This review highlights that synthetic biodegradable polymers like PVA, PCL, PLA, PLGA, PU, and PEO/PEG can address the limitations of natural polymers in wound healing, offering improved mechanical properties and slower degradation, thereby enhancing their application as wound dressings.
