This review examines the chemical composition and potential health risks of hair straighteners, but it reports no new findings and emphasizes the importance of understanding hair fibre structure for safe use.

This review discusses hairstyling trends and health risks among Black women, noting that natural styles have the fewest adverse associations, though challenges remain in society's acceptance.

This study found no evidence of subtype-specific breast cancer risk associated with hair relaxer use among women in Ghana, though the risk was elevated for former users across all subtypes.

This review discusses ethosomes as lipid carriers that enhance drug penetration into deep skin layers and underscores the need for advanced research on their pharmaceutical applications, but it reports no clinical outcomes.

This review discusses the preclinical findings on cyproterone acetate and suggests that while it has a low potential cancer risk for patients, its tumor effects in female rats may involve both genotoxic and mitogenic mechanisms.

In this study, Brca1(S971A/S971A) mice showed a moderately increased risk of spontaneous tumor formation and defects in DNA damage response, suggesting CHK2 phosphorylation of BRCA1 is crucial for tumor suppression.

This study found that the K6/ODC transgenic mouse model is highly sensitive to identifying genotoxic carcinogens, showing 100% concordance with traditional rodent bioassays.

This study from Los Angeles supports the idea that using permanent hair dye may increase bladder cancer risk in US women, especially those with a slow NAT2 acetylation phenotype.

This review discusses the long-term cutaneous and ocular complications from sulfur mustard exposure in the Iranian population, identifying pruritus and malignant changes as significant issues and highlighting eye surface damage leading to visual decline.

This review discusses the potential carcinogenic effects of anabolic androgenic steroids, particularly regarding Leydig cell tumors, and highlights the need for preventive information campaigns due to associated health risks.

This review discusses the complex relationship between anabolic substances and colorectal cancer risk, reporting ambiguous findings on their carcinogenic properties, potential synergy with risk factors, and protective roles.

This study found that topical alpha-terthienyl combined with UVA radiation rapidly induced dose-dependent cutaneous photosensitization in guinea pigs, suggesting potential for photochemotherapy in skin disorders without future carcinogenic risks.

Lack of vitamin D receptor increases skin tumor risk by boosting hedgehog signaling.

This review discusses the preventable nature of many cancers due to modifiable risk factors and emphasizes the importance of preventive oncology in reducing the global cancer burden; it reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that there was clear evidence of carcinogenic activity of C.I. Acid Orange 3 in female F344/N rats but not in male rats or B6C3F1 mice of either sex.

Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.

Certain ingredients in personal care products, like formaldehyde, oxidative hair dyes, and sulfates, pose health risks and need careful review.

Bath PUVA therapy works well for a skin condition without as many cancer risks and is cheaper, and iron deficiency might not cause female hair loss.

This study observed that Wistar rats on a zinc-deficient diet had a higher incidence of stomach cancer when exposed to MNNG, suggesting zinc deficiency may increase cancer risk.

This review discusses hair straightening techniques, products, and safety risks, providing guidance for dermatologists to advise patients effectively; it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the potential health benefits of Allium vegetables, especially their association with reduced cancer risk, but reports no new clinical outcomes.

This study found that the reproductive function of female hairdressers may be negatively affected by long-term exposure to permanent-waving solutions containing thioglycolic acid, raising concerns about its potential carcinogenic effects.

This study found no significant difference in glutathione-S-epoxide transferase activity in hair follicles between smokers and non-smokers, suggesting this enzyme's levels may not indicate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-related cancer risk.

This article discusses a proposed "Darwinian" model of carcinogenesis and emphasizes that cancer prevention involves more than avoiding mutagens, as gene-environment interactions are complex and non-linear.

This study found that TET2 plays a tumor-suppressive role in preventing squamous cell carcinomas by regulating 5-hydroxymethylcytosine levels, suggesting therapeutic potential for DNA methylation dynamics.

This study found that intramuscular injections of a PRP-derivative in healthy beagle dogs did not result in statistically significant changes in lumbar muscle tissue or IGF-1 blood concentration, suggesting the treatment may be safe at therapeutic doses.

This review from JAAD highlights disparities in the effectiveness of hair preservation techniques for Black women undergoing chemotherapy, noting that current methods like scalp cooling often underperform due to structural differences in Black hair, and recommends tailored strategies such as adjusting hair preparation before treatment.

The EPICAP study aims to investigate various factors influencing prostate cancer, including circadian disruption, inflammation, hormonal and metabolic factors, and genetic susceptibility, and reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the mechanisms and uses of minoxidil for hypertension and androgenetic alopecia, without presenting new clinical findings.

This review discusses multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults (MIS-A) related to SARS-CoV2 and outlines the existing knowledge and unanswered questions, reporting no new clinical results.
