Rosemary oil may be a promising and affordable treatment for hair loss.

This study evaluated online resources for alopecia areata patients and highlighted the value of directing them to Alopecia UK, National Alopecia Areata Foundation, and Health Talk for psychological support.

In this study, researchers evaluated online resources for psychological support for alopecia areata patients and found the quality lacking, with most resources not providing adequate advice or referring to therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy, despite the significant psychological impact of the condition.

This research identified genetic sequences that evolved at different rates in hairless versus hairy mammals, suggesting specific genetic changes contributed to the convergent evolution of hairlessness across various mammalian species.

This study suggests that specific genetic changes, including mutations in protein-coding genes and noncoding regions, have contributed to the evolution of hairlessness in multiple mammalian species.

This study identified genetic regions evolving at different rates in hairless mammals, suggesting that specific genomic changes may contribute to the evolution of hairlessness across various species.

This study found that Complementary and Alternative Medicine practitioners manage PCOS by addressing hormonal imbalances, improving fertility, and enhancing quality of life, incorporating emotional and lifestyle support alongside specific therapies.

In this study, 13.3% of dermatology patients reported using traditional and complementary medicine, with herbal remedies being the most common method, especially among middle-aged university graduates.

This review found that 5α‐reductase inhibitors were associated with slightly increased rates of decreased libido, erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction, gynecomastia, and mood disorders compared to placebo, though their long-term effects remain unclear.

In this study, CRISPR/Cas9-engineered Arabidopsis mutants revealed diverse functional differences among expansin proteins essential for root hair growth, highlighting variability in protein trafficking, cell wall binding, and evolutionary changes in critical residues affecting wall loosening.

This study found that regio-specific hydroxylation of cyclosporine A in Sebekia benihana is mediated by the cytochrome P450 hydroxylase CYP-sb21, suggesting potential biotechnological applications for hair growth promotion without immunosuppressive effects.

This study, published in "Más Dermatol," explores how multiple factors contribute to hair loss, such as genetics, hormones, oxidative stress, microinflammation, and emotional stress, and highlights interventions targeting these causes to improve hair regrowth and quality of life.
