research Reversal of Hair Loss following Vertical Gastroplasty when Treated with Zinc Sulphate
This study found that significant hair loss in about one-third of patients after vertical gastroplasty was reversed by zinc supplementation.
research What women want - quantifying the perception of hair amount: an analysis of hair diameter and density changes with age in caucasian women
This study analyzed changes in hair diameter and density with age in Caucasian women, highlighting variations in perception of hair amount over time.
research Development and Assessment of an Artificial Intelligence–Based Tool for Skin Condition Diagnosis by Primary Care Physicians and Nurse Practitioners in Teledermatology Practices
This study found that artificial intelligence assistance improved diagnostic accuracy in dermatologic cases for primary care physicians and nurse practitioners, with higher agreement rates with reference diagnoses observed.
research Effects of caffeine and siloxanetriol alginate caffeine, as anticellulite agents, on fatty tissue: histological evaluation
Caffeine and siloxanetriol alginate caffeine in emulsion form can reduce fatty cell size and number, potentially treating cellulite effectively.
research Metabolomic biomarkers in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a pilot study
This study suggests that women with polycystic ovary syndrome may have a distinct metabolomic profile, differing in levels of amino acids, organic acids, and lipids compared to controls.
research Hepatotoxicity Complicating Flutamide Treatment of Hirsutism
This letter discusses the first reported case of serious liver damage linked to the use of flutamide for hirsutism in a woman, highlighting a potential risk for hepatotoxicity with this treatment.
research Endogenous steroid hormones in hair: Investigations on different hair types, pigmentation effects and correlation to nails
In this study, researchers developed a method to measure steroid hormones in hair and found that body hair typically contains higher levels of cortisone and testosterone compared to scalp hair, but hair pigmentation did not affect hormone concentrations significantly.
research Drug-induced hair colour changes
This review examines systemic drugs that can cause changes in hair color and emphasizes the importance of reporting these adverse events, but it does not include new clinical outcomes.
research Activation of liver X receptors inhibits experimental fibrosis by interfering with interleukin-6 release from macrophages
This study found that activating liver X receptors with an agonist reduced skin fibrosis in experimental models, particularly in inflammation-driven conditions, by inhibiting macrophage infiltration and interleukin-6 release.
research Cutaneous Retinoic Acid Levels Determine Hair Follicle Development and Downgrowth
This study found that proper levels of retinoic acid, controlled by the enzyme Cyp26b1, are essential for normal hair follicle development and morphogenesis in mice.
research Evaluating cepharanthine analogues as natural drugs against SARS‐CoV‐2
In this study, molecular docking simulations and cell-based assays suggested that certain analogues of cepharanthine might possess anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity.
research Factors affecting the severity of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
This study reports that the duration of hair loss is positively associated with the severity of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African-American women.
research Cuticle damage and the tensile properties of human hair
This study found that extensive cuticle damage from diperisophthalic acid oxidation did not alter the tensile properties of human hair, suggesting that these properties are mainly due to the cortex rather than the cuticle.
research Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis induced by hydroxychloroquine prescribed for COVID-19
This case study highlights that even short-term use of hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 can potentially lead to acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis as an adverse effect.
research Minoxidil Treatment of Malignant Hypertension
Minoxidil helps treat severe high blood pressure.
research Moisture sorption/desorption of protein fibres
This study found that lipid extraction increased water diffusion in wool and hair fibers; the effect was more pronounced in hair, indicating lipids are crucial for water permeability.
research Lidocaine-Loaded Solid Lipid Microparticles (SLMPs) Produced from Gas-Saturated Solutions for Wound Applications
In this study, solid lipid microparticles loaded with lidocaine hydrochloride were developed to effectively deliver pain relief and antimicrobial benefits for wound management, demonstrated by testing with bioengineered skin substitutes and showing effectiveness against common wound-infecting bacteria.
research Comparative analysis of long-term self-reported COVID-19 symptoms among pregnant women
This study found that long-COVID symptoms in pregnant women, including fatigue, hair loss, and difficulty concentrating, appear similar to those reported in the general population.
research Extracellular vesicles from hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stromal cells: isolation, characterization and therapeutic potential for chronic wound healing
This study found that extracellular vesicles derived from hair follicle mesenchymal stromal cells demonstrated similar potential to those from adipose tissue in promoting cell proliferation and migration, enhancing angiogenesis, and protecting cells under stress, suggesting promise for chronic wound treatment.
research The effects of minoxidil on pulmonary and systemic hemodynamics in hypertensive man.
Minoxidil lowers blood pressure and increases heart efficiency, but may raise lung artery pressure in some people.
research Persistent major alopecia following adjuvant docetaxel for breast cancer: incidence, characteristics, and prevention with scalp cooling
This study found that adjuvant docetaxel treatment for breast cancer at cumulative doses of 400 mg/m² or higher is associated with a 10% prevalence of persistent alopecia leading to wig use, but this was completely prevented with scalp cooling.
research Rapid Blood Pressure Control With Minoxidil
Minoxidil effectively lowers blood pressure and initially increases plasma renin activity without raising aldosterone levels.
research Marine Health-Promoting Compounds: Recent Trends for Their Characterization and Human Applications
This study explores the potential of seaweeds as a source of bioactive compounds for food, cosmetics, and medical applications, while highlighting concerns about toxic element accumulation and suggesting purification and nanoencapsulation techniques to enhance safety and stability.
research Localized trichorrhexis nodosa
This article describes a case of localized trichorrhexis nodosa in a patient with otherwise normal hair, highlighting the condition's response to trauma and diagnostic process but reporting no new clinical findings.
research The cell membrane complex: Three related but different cellular cohesion components of mammalian hair fibers
This review discusses new developments in understanding the structure and properties of keratin fiber cell membrane complexes, without reporting new experimental results.
