This study reported that the aqueous ethanol extract of Lygodii Spora demonstrated in vitro testosterone 5alpha-reductase inhibition and in vivo anti-androgenic activity, potentially due to oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acids.

This study demonstrated that keratin derived from human hair can improve axon extension and alleviate motor deficits from sciatic nerve injuries, highlighting its potential as a promising biomaterial for peripheral nerve regeneration.

In this study, researchers evaluated the hair pull test and found that normal values should be reduced to two hairs or fewer, with no significant impact from hair washing, brushing, or lifestyle factors such as hair texture and medication use.

In this in vitro study, minoxidil, diazoxide, and the novel compound NNC 55-0118 increased hair follicle growth, supporting deer follicles as a viable bioassay for ATP-sensitive potassium channel modulators.

This study examined developing hair cortex with electron microscopy and found that keratin fibrils form between specific regions in hair follicles and aggregate into twisted cables.

This article discusses hair shedding in women and does not offer new research results; it highlights the need for objective criteria to define excessive hair shedding.

This article reviews previous cases and reports of allergic contact dermatitis from minoxidil but does not provide new clinical findings.

This case report describes a woman with Becker's nevus and ipsilateral breast hypoplasia who showed breast enlargement after one month of spironolactone treatment, suggesting a link between hypoplasia and increased androgenic receptor activity.

This review examines cell-based therapies for limbal stem cell deficiency, highlighting epidermal and hair follicle-derived stem cells as promising candidates for future clinical trials, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that conditioned media from epidermal progenitor cells improved skin aging signs in a clinical trial and protected fibroblasts from oxidative stress in vitro.

This report describes a 33-year-old woman who developed alopecia neoplastica due to gastric adenocarcinoma, highlighting the role of tumor invasion in hair follicle atrophy.

This case study found that a 7-year-old girl's crystalline cataract had sulfur-containing amino acids likely cystine, and was associated with abnormal hair conditions.

This study suggests that an extract from Malva verticillata seeds could help treat hair loss by modulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in cultured human dermal papilla cells.

This study found no significant differences in sensation recovery or scar formation between radiofrequency and scalpel incisions in upper blepharoplasty, although radiofrequency caused greater tissue damage.

This study found that among Japanese women with diffuse hair loss, decreased hair density without changes in vellus hair was the most common and distinct pattern observed, highlighting differences from previous observations in other populations.

This study discovered a new region in the hair cortex where intermediate filaments are both aligned with the hair's axis and orientationally ordered, influenced by the cuticle boundary.

This study found that the growth of hair ice on dead wood requires the biological activity of a winter-active fungus, specifically Exidiopsis effusa, which shapes and stabilizes the ice structures.

This article describes a potential novel approach to reduce chemotherapy-induced hair loss by enhancing the expression of specific transporters in hair follicles, but reports no clinical results.

This review explores various hormone influences on hair growth and loss beyond androgens, noting that clinical hormone therapies for aging may impact hair due to associated hormone level reductions, but reports no new empirical results.

This study found that 2% ketoconazole solution stimulated hair growth significantly in a mouse model, suggesting potential benefits for male pattern hair loss.

This article reviews the roles of lesser-known secreted phospholipase A2 isoforms in various biological processes, such as immune suppression, metabolic regulation, epidermal hyperplasia, and male reproduction, without reporting new clinical findings.

This article discusses the dynamics of the "mole gaze" and cybersexism on the Web, analyzing interactions through personal and theoretical lenses, and suggests the need for both structural and psychological change to counteract these issues.

Minoxidil can lower blood pressure effectively and safely in emergencies.

In this study, researchers found that the EDMTFH protein is present in specific layers of the chicken embryo skin and feathers, suggesting its role in feather mechanics and development.

This article presents 12 theses distinguishing alternative and regular medicine in Germany, reporting no new clinical results; the authors argue that the current integration of alternative methods in universities is misguided.

This report describes eleven cases of thallium poisoning in individuals who consumed tortillas made from barley mixed with thallium sulphate, leading to symptoms including tingling, abdominal pain, vomiting, and limb weakness.

This report is the first to associate Cronkhite-Canada syndrome with multiple myeloma, describing regenerative pseudopolyps in a 58-year-old woman rather than true adenomatous polyps.

This article reviews new drug therapies for endocrine disorders, discussing specific treatments such as trilostane for hyperadrenocorticism and various insulins for diabetes mellitus, but it reports no new clinical findings.
