August 2021 in “Chinese journal of burns” This study found that combining FUE transplantation with rb-bFGF gel and minoxidil tincture significantly improved hair survival, reduced hair loss, and increased patient satisfaction in cicatricial alopecia treatment, compared to FUE alone, with fewer adverse effects reported within 12 months post-surgery.
This study identified a novel E413K mutation in the hHb6 gene in a Chinese Han family with monilethrix, potentially linked to the characteristic moniliform hair structure.
November 2018 in “Chin J Clin Lab Mgt (Electronic Edition)” This paper introduces Concentration Growth Factor (CGF) as a potential treatment for androgenetic alopecia, but reports no clinical findings on its effectiveness in promoting hair growth.
September 2023 in “Family practice” This study found that among 52 classification tools on the Clinical Knowledge Summaries website, 46% lacked strong guidance for their use in managing conditions, suggesting that nearly half of the tools may not be useful for clinical decision-making.
This study found that the age of onset in systemic lupus erythematosus patients affects clinical features, with juvenile-onset SLE showing more severe disease activity and systemic involvement than adult or late-onset SLE.

May 2010 in “Chinese journal of plastic surgery” This study found higher expression of melatonin receptors in fibroblasts of human hypertrophic scars compared to normal skin, suggesting a possible link to scar development.
In this study, human dermal papilla cell-derived extracellular vesicles (hDPC-EVs) were found to reduce skin fibrosis in mice by delivering miRNA-182-5p, which inhibits the TGF-β1 signaling pathway.
February 2023 in “PubMed” This review discusses the role of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in wound healing, but it presents no new clinical results.
November 2022 in “PubMed” This study found that inadequate thickness of deep dermal tissue in pigs is a key factor leading to fibrosis, with fibrosis likely serving a compensatory function for skin thickness.
