This article examines the emergence of predictive analytics with big data and concludes that Foucault's concept of biopower is now a hybrid involving various technologies to monitor and model behavior and risk.

This study developed and validated a highly sensitive method using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry for accurately analyzing nine neuroactive steroids in human serum, which could enhance understanding of disease pathophysiology and support new biomarker and therapeutic discovery.

In this review, researchers explored hair as a promising tool for identifying biomarkers in schizophrenia, highlighting its potential for supporting personalized medicine through ease of sampling, though acknowledging challenges like individual variability and methodological inconsistencies.

This study suggests that dermal adipocytes play a significant role in skin aging, particularly through the process of adipocyte-myofibroblast transition, highlighting them as potential targets to combat aging in chronically photo-damaged skin.

This study demonstrated that an LC/MS-MS method could effectively detect and quantify the vitamin B3 vitamer nicotinamide in human hair, suggesting its potential use for long-term deficiency examination.

This survey reports on the types and extraction factors of flavonoids in three aquatic plants from Iraqi marshlands but notes limited information on individual flavonoid profiles and their biological impacts.

This study found that a modest increase in dietary zinc over six months resulted in a detectable increase in sulfur and zinc counts in individual hairs, suggesting a non-invasive method to monitor zinc intake effects.

This study introduced a novel in vitro murine assay using transgenic mice to identify immunomodulatory compounds, which identified 160 potential hits from 4,398 compounds screened.

This study found that increased hair cortisol levels among WIFN volunteers suggest higher chronic stress compared to those from a non-First Nation community, possibly linked to socioeconomic factors and poorer health.

This study found high levels of toxic heavy metals in water sources of mining communities in Abakaliki, Nigeria, posing potential health risks including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.

This study reports that hair samples can be used to track chronic hormone levels, revealing stress, reproductive, and sodium regulation patterns in wildebeest related to environmental factors.

This study found that IBA-1-immunopositive macrophages in rat skin during wound healing show varied morphometric characteristics and peak in numbers at 2, 6, and 15 days post-injury.

In this study, researchers developed a pH-sensitive dendritic polyglycerol nanogel to measure pH inside hair follicles using an ex vivo porcine ear model, finding that the pH increases from 6.5 at the skin surface to 7.4 in deeper follicle areas, without observed toxicity.

In this animal study, serum biotin levels and clinical symptoms in gilts suggested that serum biotin could serve as a sensitive indicator of biotin deficiency, and a system to evaluate biotin status was proposed.

This study concluded that drug-distribution measurements using micro-segmental hair analysis are effective for drowned bodies, as natural water containing divalent ions prevents drug washout from hair.

This research review highlights how hair cortisol concentration can reflect the activation of the stress-response system in farm, domestic, and wild animals, noting it correlates with factors like species, sex, age, and environmental conditions, which may influence stress and adaptation.

This study developed a mathematical model using hair biomarkers (levels of Mg, K, Fe, Al, Cr) to noninvasively predict iron content in Hereford cattle muscle tissue, potentially improving livestock management and meat quality.

This study investigated the ability of a human hair keratin dimer to absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutane sulfonate, finding high binding affinities that suggest potential for hair-derived materials in water filtration technologies.

This study reported the development of two highly sensitive ELISA assays to detect banned substances finasteride and dutasteride in human urine, offering better sensitivity than existing HPLC/MS/MS methods.

This article discusses using hair analysis to monitor drug use but does not present new research findings.

This study confirms that many iron deficiency symptoms occur in non-anemic women, with transferrin saturation showing a strong correlation with symptom diversity, suggesting its potential as an early diagnostic biomarker.

This study optimized a screening assay to identify molecules that inhibit or enhance TRPM5 ion channel activity, which may have implications for treating dysfunctions linked to cardiac arrhythmias and diabetes.

This review discusses recent advances in wearable bioelectronics for the monitoring and management of chronic wounds and reports no new results; the authors highlight potential benefits but emphasize existing challenges and future research needs.
