This retrospective cross-section study found that in a cohort of Pica patients in Iraq, 92.4% were female, and many had low levels of ferritin, hemoglobin, and vitamin D, which may contribute to the disorder by causing psychological issues.

This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of a cinchonine nanostructured lipid carrier serum for hair growth in mouse models, finding that it significantly increased hair length and enhanced follicle penetration compared to controls, with no notable irritation observed.

COVID-19 can cause different types of hair loss, with telogen effluvium being the most common.

This review discusses the health risks of mercury from dental amalgam, including higher levels of mercury in dentists and pregnant women, and suggests using composite resins instead.

This study found that Soxhlet extraction is more effective at removing the toxin mimosine from Leucaena leucocephala, and mimosine shows promise as a biodiesel additive due to its antioxidative properties.

This study found that donor age and culture medium significantly impact the quality of human full-thickness skin models, with implications for their use as animal model alternatives in research.

This health hazard evaluation by NIOSH identified problems with ventilation and environmental control at a resort spa, potentially contributing to reported employee health complaints.

The U.S. soybean industry wanted government help due to foreign competition, while the jojoba industry was growing and expected to stabilize.

This review discusses advancements in skin microphysiological systems, such as 3D bioprinting, skin organoids, and skin-on-a-chip, and their effectiveness in emulating human skin functions for research and preclinical applications, highlighting the potential for replacing animal testing with these innovative technologies.

This study demonstrated that hair relaxers containing common chemicals significantly reduced cell viability and increased apoptosis in human skin cells, suggesting potential toxicity that could be assessed with advanced in vitro technologies rather than animal testing.

This review discusses the pathophysiologic role of lysophosphatidic acid in the skin and reports no clinical results, suggesting pharmacological inhibition as a potential treatment for various skin disorders.

This case report suggests that intracanal medication with calcium hydroxide paste may alleviate colitis symptoms triggered by Formacresol used during dental retreatment in a 46-year-old patient.

This study found that PEGylated Ag₂S-ZnS@TGA-AA heteronanostructures, activated by light exposure, showed synergistic antibacterial effects against multidrug-resistant bacteria, significantly accelerating the healing of MRSA-infected wounds in comparison to untreated wounds.

This study found that photochemical and cosmetic chemical oxidation of hair causes surface damage by delipidation and acid formation, which can be characterized and quantified using microfluorometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had lower serum zinc and biotin levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting these deficiencies may play a role in the condition's pathogenesis.

This article discusses the history and terminology of toxic epidermal necrolysis but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the use of high pH chemical agents for hair straightening can cause significant damage to hair, including protein degradation and weakened fiber strength, and may lead to permanent scalp conditions like contact dermatitis and cicatricial alopecia.

The researchers concluded that their new reconstructed human epidermis model from plucked hair follicle-derived keratinocytes offers a safer and simpler alternative to traditional skin-derived models for studying epidermal function.

In this study, oral care products like foams and a spray, similar to tap water, improved salivary pH and oral clearance rates after exposure to Coca-Cola® in young adults, but no significant differences were found between these products and tap water.

This review discusses nanotechnology-based therapies for chronic wound healing and highlights their potential, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that potential exposure to Corexit™ dispersants during the Deepwater Horizon cleanup was associated with increased respiratory, dermal, and eye irritation symptoms among responders both during the cleanup and up to three years later.

This review highlights hypochlorous acid's potential benefits in various medical fields due to its antimicrobial and healing properties but stresses the need for further research on dosing and product development.

This case study reports that Citrullus colocynthis can cause severe gastrointestinal symptoms, including rectorrhagia and mucosal erosion, highlighting the need for awareness of its potential side effects.

This review discusses the potential antidepressant effects of phenylalanine, highlighting its significant activity in laboratory studies, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review explored the use of six tropical plants, such as Acacia concinna and Garcinia mangostana, as natural active ingredients in shampoos, highlighting their beneficial physicochemical properties and biological activities for hair care and scalp maintenance.

This review highlights the need for improved methods in cosmetic safety assessment, emphasizing the potential of engineered skin tissue for more effective detection and toxicological evaluation of cosmetic products, compared to traditional methods.

This review details phenol's dermatological uses and underscores its potent skin rejuvenation effects but emphasizes the need for caution due to risks of serious complications, including cardiac arrhythmias and organ failure, particularly with improper use or large-area applications.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma may improve patient-reported outcomes for scar symptoms like pain and itching at six months, although no significant changes in scar appearance were observed at three months.

This study observed that dental erosion was common among adolescents in Pasto, Colombia, with dietary habits like frequent juice consumption and snacking on artificially flavored lemon products linked to increased risk.

This study found that hair fibers broke down and lost keratin in extremely basic conditions, revealing the inner medulla and changing the color of the fibers.
