This report describes the use of compounded topical preparations to treat two severe psoriasis patients and calls for further studies on their regulation, protocol, and stability evaluation.

This review reports that hair analysis can confirm drug exposure but not accurately estimate doses due to variability and confounding factors like melanin and cosmetic treatments, suggesting it should be used as a qualitative forensic tool rather than for precise dose quantification.

In this study, researchers aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combining plum-blossom needle tapping with ginger juice rubbing to prevent hair loss in obese women after metabolic bariatric surgery, through a randomized controlled trial involving 96 participants.

In this study, researchers will conduct a randomized, double-blind, multi-center clinical trial to assess the effectiveness of YH0618 granule in preventing chemotherapy-induced hair loss among breast cancer patients, aiming to understand its mechanism related to kidney deficiency in Chinese Medicine. Results are not yet reported.

This study found that chronic administration of finasteride affected the isotopic composition of testosterone and nandrolone metabolites, impacting the drug-testing outcomes in athletic contexts.

This study aims to assess how daily life factors affect sleep patterns and describe individual sleep changes across the year, with results to be published in future research.

In this case report, researchers describe a 44-year-old woman with refractory patch alopecia areata achieving complete hair regrowth using a multi-modal approach of systemic and topical cholecalciferol with microneedling, although systemic vitamin D repletion remains a significant confounder.

This study reviews the epidemiology of alopecia areata in the UK, focusing on its links to mental health comorbidities, autoimmune/atopic associations, and common infection incidences.

This study is designed to explore how circadian rhythms are affected by obesity and mental health conditions, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, using biological and lifestyle data from independently living adults.

This review aims to help medical practitioners understand inferential statistical methods to critically evaluate clinical trial design and analyses, but it doesn’t present new research findings.

Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.

In this randomized controlled trial involving breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, this study investigated the efficacy of low-level light therapy for preventing hair loss, measuring outcomes like hair count and patient quality of life, but the abstract does not report specific results.

This analysis concluded that the evidence does not establish a cause-and-effect relationship between iron intake and the maintenance of normal hair growth in non-menopausal women with excessive hair loss.

This abstract describes the approval of a study by the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials and the North South University Institutional Review Board, but it does not report any results or conclusions.

In this pilot study, PDLLA scalp microinjections showed improvement in physician-rated Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale scores over 12-24 weeks for 90% of patients with non-scarring alopecia, with no serious adverse events reported, although findings remain preliminary due to methodological limitations.

This article outlines the first prospective cohort study examining whether bariatric surgery can induce satisfactory weight loss in obese Koreans, with no new results reported yet.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of YH0618 granules in preventing chemotherapy-induced hair loss in breast cancer patients through a randomized, double-blind, multi-center clinical trial, focusing on potential mechanisms related to kidney deficiency as understood in Chinese Medicine. Results are not yet reported.

This study developed a non-invasive, partially automated protocol for extracting high-quality DNA from hair follicles of marmosets, significantly reducing chimerism rates compared to blood, and proving reliable for whole genome sequencing in low-input DNA scenarios.

This review highlights that laser and light treatments could serve as safe and effective alternatives to current therapies for alopecia areata, with the excimer laser showing positive results, though further randomized controlled trials are necessary to establish optimal treatment protocols.

In this review, researchers examined how needle gauge and length impact the viability of human stem cells during injections, emphasizing the balance between minimizing tissue trauma and preserving cell viability to optimize clinical protocols.

The study aims to find the best treatment for central serous chorioretinopathy by comparing various options.

This article discusses the importance of optimizing treatment protocols for chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize improving patient outcomes and quality of life.

In this retrospective case series, researchers observed that a combined treatment protocol of homoeopathy, Xogen therapy, diet, and vitamin supplementation progressively reduced hair fall and improved hair density in five male patients with androgenic alopecia.

In this systematic review and meta-analysis, the authors examined single-spin versus double-spin centrifugation protocols for PRP in patients with androgenic alopecia and found no significant difference in platelet concentration, hair density, or hair types between the protocols.

This article discusses the challenges and lack of progress in improving burn care outcomes for patients aged 65 and older, highlighting the urgent need for tailored treatment protocols and better understanding of their long-term care needs.

This review discusses the use of hair cortisol concentration as a marker for chronic stress and long-term cortisol secretion in animals, highlighting its benefits and the need for standardized sampling protocols.

This study found that cortisol concentrations were significantly higher in hair samples with follicles compared to those without, suggesting potential confounding in stress assessments using different hair sampling methods.

In this study, the authors suggest that patient safety with isotretinoin in Palestine can be improved by adapting pharmacy and medical practice protocols to better educate patients and ensure adherence to safety monitoring and laboratory ordering.

This study critically reviewed recent evidence (2020–2025) on treatments like platelet-rich plasma, photobiomodulation, stem cells, and exosomes for androgenetic alopecia, finding emerging but limited efficacy data and emphasizing the need for standardized protocols to enhance transparency and patient safety.

This review of studies published after 2020 found that probiotics may significantly reduce acne lesions and improve skin health in individuals with acne vulgaris, though further high-quality research is needed for confirmation and treatment optimization.
